Saves time by turning your notes into polished feedback
Supports file uploads for added context (e.g., student work samples or notes)
Helps ensure feedback is balanced and supportive
Use it for end-of-term report cards, progress updates, or student-led and parent conference prep.
Using the Tool
If you are using HMH Curriculum, start by selecting an HMH Program. If applicable, also select the unit and lesson.
Select the Grade Level. This will automatically be populated if you selected an HMH Program.
Then type in the Student Name.
Type in information about where the student is excelling. You can input this as sentences or a list of skills. Optionally, you can Upload examples of student work, anecdotal notes, or other files to help the AI generate more personalized feedback based on student outcomes.
For example: “He shows strong problem-solving skills in math and consistently participates in class discussions.”
Provide constructive notes on where the student can improve. This can also be written in sentence form or as a list of skills. Optionally, you can Upload examples of student work, anecdotal notes, or other files to help the AI generate more personalized feedback based on student outcomes.
For Example: “He is working on staying focused during independent work time and using class time effectively.”
Click Generate and let the AI turn your input into professional report card comments. Review and edit as needed before sharing.
💡Tip! Use specific examples when possible—this helps the AI tailor your comments more effectively. You can also request tone adjustments (e.g., “keep it supportive and encouraging”) in the HMH Assist chat to the left.
What’s Next?
Carefully review the AI-generated comments before adding them to your report cards or conference notes. Remember that you know your students best!
Use HMH Assist (left sidebar) to revise tone, rephrase content, or generate translations to share with parents.
Copy and paste the finalized comments into your gradebook or report card software.
