Including Parents in Teaching the Greek Language by Janette Holmes https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1 One idea I have read or heard about en-us 2018-10-25 03:47:28 UTC 2026-03-12 14:13:31 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Hearts.png Idea to include parents https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/297697240 I would like to encourage parents to volunteer in helping us either by joining the PTA, accompanying the school at our field trips such as apple picking, or if they could come and talk to the classroom as a guest speaker.  For example, they could talk about how was Greek school when they were in grade 4.

On a separate sheet I can ask that the student does the reading with someone that can correct any errors; to make sure that they check what other homework they might have and when it's due and to ask them to work with the student on ways that will make studying easy and comfortable and last but not least to start a few days earlier and do the work little by little so that it is better absorbed and thought out.

Helful facts on their strengths,  weaknesses and interests. This would demonstrate that the teacher cares and is interested in getting to know their child well.

Is the assignment clear? When is it due? Do you need special resources or special supplies?Have you started today's assignment? Finished it? Is it a long-term assignment?

That way i will build a beneficial relationship with them and i can also invite them in our class to tell us about their professions. We will feel closer to each other, the students will be proud of their parents and they will be introduced to new vocabulary words by hearing them talking to us. Moreover, parents will feel more comfortable, confident and integrated parts of our small class community :)

Helen]]> 2018-11-18 07:18:28 UTC https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/305619021 I believe the idea of a parent-teacher group will benefit the school community. We all like the feeling of being part of the decision making and not fell excluded. https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/305787813 Vicky

]]> 2018-11-19 06:57:18 UTC https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/305787813 I should be encouraging more feedback on a regular basis. I admit I am often hesitant for a couple of reasons. First, I may get feedback I disagree with but feel I need to implement because I asked for it. The second is that implementing feedback can take time and add work to my already busy schedule. But in the end I know it is valuable and will involve parents more in the learning. At the administration level, I send a survey out every year to obtain feedback. Then I can use the summer to address the ideas athena21 https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/306167604 2018-11-20 01:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/306167604 https://padlet.com/janetteholmes13/Parents1/wish/307564304 Concerning including parents in the program is to ask for feedback and information about their children.
