| What Teachers Would Like Parents To Do |
|
|
Stay involved in your children’s education through all grades. Research says that children do best when their parents are involved in their education.
Be a good role model by letting your children see you reading for information and pleasure.
Let reading be a part of every day through books, magazines and newspapers. Read to your children or read with them. Use the library.
Show your children that you value education. Model a positive attitude about learning and school.
Create a positive home environment that supports learning.
Provide a quiet place and the necessary materials for your children to do their homework. Be available during homework times so your children know you value homework as another part of their education.
Get to know the teachers, principal and other members of the school staff. Become involved in issues that affect your children.
Develop an open relationship and maintain contact with teachers. Let them know when a problem arises.
Attend parent/teacher conferences and other school events such as open houses, student performances, chaperoning field trips, etc. Try to be involved in at least one school activity during the course of the year.
Encourage your children’s self-worth and self-esteem by concentrating on their positive qualities rather than their deficiencies. Take every opportunity to praise them when they’ve done something good. This gives them the best chance for success in school.
Parents are their children’s most important teachers of values and morals. Principles such as honesty and respect need to be taught in the home.
Show your children you are interested in what they are doing. Spend some time each day listening and talking to them.
Protect your children’s health and provide good nutrition.
