Communicating with parents is important and always better than later finding out that a student doesn't feel informed.

I really like to use classdojo to communicate with students since they also use this with their teacher.  I believe it helps them to feel connected.

I always try to share the positive with them and help the parent feel heard and understood when they share information about their child.

I like to make sure that I am asking about the kids lives and interests outside of my class. What do they want to be and do? How can I help make sure they know about class options to get there or scholarships?

At the Jr high emails for info about events, field trips, and fund raisers.   Calls home for good things before bad.  Building that relationship with parents is just as important.

At different times in the year I have used Twitter to share student learning in the library. This has been effective in letting the community know what is happening and has provided ideas to other school librarians for their programs.

As an ESL teacher many of my student's parents speak only Spanish and I only speak English. My school allowed us to use text messages as a form of communication. I was able to translate my messages to spanish before sending them and then I could translate their messages to English. This made communication so much easier between the parent and I. I think they really appreciated the extra effort when they realized that I have to use a translator and that I could only text in Spanish. I always made sure they knew I was using a translator incase something came across incorrect.

I am the team member that is outside during dismissal calling the students that are being picked up by the parents. This gives me a opportunity to start an open communication with parents as well as they can check in with me about their student. I know that this helps me as well as the parents because they feel that it is safe to approach me with their concerns or questions.

As a classroom teacher, at the beginning of the school year, I prioritize learning each students' name by the end of the fourth day of school. I would also call every parents of each student to introduce myself and the plans and expectations that I had for their students.

I work hard to make phone calls and emails several times a week to the families of my contact students. My goal is to have more positive contact than I do negative contact. Especially important when dealing with the SEAS population. The families are so used to hearing the negative side of communication.

Have a checklist of each student. Every grading period (not necessarily at the end), call or notify each parent of something great their child did. Parents want to hear the good, not just the bad.

Seesaw is great for giving students feedback! Canvas is another great tool. I love the video aspects.
