It can include listening to the families, always treating them with respect and having positive communication with them. It is important that the families and educators communicate effectively about the child.

All of these things will let the families know that you care about them and that you always have the child's best interest in mind. ]]> 2020-09-29 16:49:51 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/788709942 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/789242074 Communication is one of the most important strategy for building a positive relationship with families. Communication is key because it helps you understand the families beliefs and cultural practices and why those practices are important to them. If you run into some issues having to do with cultural differences, it is important for the teacher to acknowledge and listen to why the family does not agree, while also trying to understand their thoughts and values. Then, adapting their values into the thing they did not agree with; even if it means compromising since it shows that you care and value their thoughts. This will also encourage the families to feel appreciated and instills a feeling of trust. ]]> 2020-09-29 18:42:00 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/789242074 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/789336051 There are many ways to build strong relationships with families. First of all, start off with an open mind and a positive outlook. Do not assume that families do not care to participate. Instead, assume they do and simply need the proper tools and encouragement to do so. Make a good first impression with families and ask them questions to figure out what they hope to get out of the program. Be respectful of cultural differences and try to include them in your class. Communicate in the family's home language. Provide materials in the family's home language. If you are unable to speak or write in their home language, make sure that someone on your staff can serve as an interpreter. Honor families as the primary educators of their children and make sure they know that their input is just as valuable as yours. ]]> 2020-09-29 19:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/789336051 yolandacaballero232 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/790176799 Effective strategies to build positive relationships with family can be many things.

When working with children it is important to engage and incorporate families to create connections and to initially help the child develop successfully. Accepting the families cultures and beliefs is a great way families can feel a connection with the class and will encourage them to want to learn and help more.]]> 2020-09-30 18:20:15 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/792528129 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/792855475 There are many ways on building a positive relationship with families. But of course we have to keep in mind that families are different and that we will most likely need different strageties for each family. We have to be able to understand their culture, their believes, and have great communication about what their expectations are. We have to able to take in their suggestions, and give them feedback. We as well, need to remember that many families do want to participate and are interested in helping with their child's development. However some may not be able to participate as much because of life situations.]]> 2020-09-30 19:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/792855475 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/793170028 Building relationships with families should we done from day one itself and continued throughout the school year. Some effective strategies are discussed below. 
-Being aware of both surface culture (food, holidays) and deep culture (gestures, rewards and privileges)
-A small gesture such as a smile, or remembering the parents names goes a long way than we think. 
-Have various forms of communication and respect each families preferences. 
- Good news is just as important as informing parents about bad news.
- Making parents feel like they can reach us about anything and that we are here to listen. 
- Using the 3A method (Ask, Acknowledge, Adapt) when parents bring forth concerns.

Most important is communication. Let the families know their voices and opinions are heard and taken in for the best interest of the child. When parents have concerns hear them out and support them. Wear a smile on your face and show kindness and compassion towards the child. Its also important to remember every family is different and every situation will be a little different. Be flexible and as the teacher always inform families about the good and the bad.

I believe that the first step to building positive relationships is to establish an open form of communication so that the families feel free to discuss anything relevant to their child when they are at home. By being open with parents you are establishing a kind of trust with them. When the parents and teacher have established trust within each other they are more likely to work together to help benefit the child's learning and well being. Another way that we can build relationships with families is by taking their cultures and beliefs into consideration. We can do this by using the 3A Method, which is to Ask, Acknowledge, and Adapt. When families see that we ask the right questions, acknowledge their beliefs/cultures, and adapt along with them they will be more likely to have a stronger connection with us.]]> 2020-10-01 04:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/793571555 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796755026 There’s many strategies so that you can build relationships with families. I think first and foremost gaining the parents respect and trust is the most important in order to continue building our relationship on a solid base. In order to gain their trust and respect you need to be culturally aware because that gives you a big insight as to what the parents are like. Some things to continue building relationships would be having open communication and really showing that you care for the child of course parents don’t feel good if they don’t think their teacher likes third child. Also working closely with their child shows that you care about them for example letting parents know they had an accident but they’re OK, getting together and talking about the small victories like going potty or writing their name, just celebrating these instead of just focusing on the negatives like what milestones aren’t being met is also important because I think especially for parents and families with children who have special needs, it can be hard to hear lots of negative stuff so when you hear the positive I think it makes them feel really good too.]]> 2020-10-02 01:34:23 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796755026 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796819434 When building positive relationships with families we must establish the idea that all families are valuable. The diversity different families bring to the program allow for a community to be built. As an educator building relationships with families ultimately begins with talking and listening to what their goals and aspirations are for their child. Opening up the door to making them feel comfortable and confident in our desire to not only welcome, but provide support for every family by being flexible to their schedules. Acknowledging how families have unique aspects to bring reassures families their child has a presence in our classroom. ]]> 2020-10-02 02:40:19 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796819434 christineirvine533 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796832734 here are many different ways to build positive relationships with the families you work with. Teachers should make all families feel welcome and comfortable communicating with the teachers. A great way to start building a relationship is taking the time to get to know the families and their culture. This shows that you are interesting in understanding and connecting with them which is a great foundation. Sending out questionnaires for families to fill out about the children and their family traditions is a way to get to know the families. Having a pretty open and flexible communication system with families is also important. Parents work different hours, its part of the teachers job to make sure that they make the time to get to know the parents who might have a busy job. ]]> 2020-10-02 02:54:35 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796832734 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796899749 Building positive relationships takes time and dedication. I think the most important aspect of building these relationships is trust. Trust between families and teachers allows for a more comforting and welcoming environment. Open communication and collaboration is important. Weekly newsletters from the classroom to the parents can keep the families involved. Getting to know families and discovering their culture and traditions and incorporating them in school can create a "family-like school". You can decorate the classroom with photos of the children and their families so they feel more included in their education. ]]> 2020-10-02 04:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/796899749 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799235590 Some effective strategies to build positive relationships with families include keeping them updated with the curriculum and status of how their child is doing and including them in decision making. Another way to build positive relationships is to make an effort to understand the families background and incorporate that in the classroom. This includes finding out the families home language and sending home letters etc. in their home language. Treating all families not necessarily the same but with the same respect can also help build positive relationships. ]]> 2020-10-02 22:33:34 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799235590 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799338182 An effective strategy that can help build relationships between educators and families is by communicating with one another on a weekly or daily basis and not just once. Keep the families informed on their child progress, achievements, and actions, this shows parents that you care about their child's development and the type of education he receives. Also another way to build the relationship with families is by taking their language into consideration. This means communicating through their hoe language, and if that's not possible provide a translator when having a conference or school activity because this shows the parents that they are important and you value their voice and opinion. ]]> 2020-10-03 00:31:56 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799338182 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799371044 An effective strategy that can supports building positive relationships with families is having an open communication. Staying positive and as an educator being open to their culture and the way they educate their children. Making the effort to know the families will make the transition smoother to work with one another. Approaching the families in their home language will make them feel comfortable and approachable. Include the families in the planning of their children will allow the connection from home to the environment. ]]> 2020-10-03 01:16:25 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799371044 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799536838 To even begin building a positive relationship with families , it all begins with communication. Communication is KEY when attempting to work together with families on helping their child/student reach their goals effectively. It's important to remember that working with children also means working together and alongside their families in order to properly help and aid their child. Communicating with parents also allows teachers to build trust and a healthy relationship, this also helps the child both in school and at home so that they are kept on track.

One effective strategy that helps build relationships is communication. Communication between the family and the parent. Having a conversation about the child's background, their culture, and their education will help build a relationship because you are valuing the family. Having communication also builds trust in the parent/families and the teacher. The teacher is caring for the child sometimes more than the parent and building that trust will help build a positive relationship. ]]> 2020-10-03 16:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799867431 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799947140 Building responsive relationships with families strengthens our partnerships to support children in their development. When we are supportive and have have intent to get to know our families we get to learn about their culture, values and background. We open the door for communication to support interactions that are authentic and intentional. As teachers being able to communicate with families in their home language build a sense of comfort. We acknowledge and value their home language and can provide our supportive documentation to make the family feel as part of our program community. I think that including presentation on their culture into the classroom can also support how we build our relationship since we also make them part of our classroom. ]]> 2020-10-03 18:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/799947140 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/801037210 Some effective strategies to building positive relationships with families are to make the initial interaction and introduce yourself and start to build a meaningful connection. Another way is to find out their schedules and work with them to make time to give them updates and talk to them, this can be done through meetings, emails, etc. Another way to build a positive relationship is to involve and collaborate with families, ask them their opinions and come up with ways they can be involved in the class. And always just create an atmosphere that makes them feel welcomed and want to be a part of your class. ]]> 2020-10-04 17:37:37 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/801037210 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/801755706 I think building trust and having good communication with families is an effective way to build positive relationships with families. It is important for the families to know that their child is in good hands, and that the teacher is also there to support the family and any concerns they may have with their child. A way for teachers to show support is to provide flyers of parent workshops and resources available through the community. ]]> 2020-10-05 03:33:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/801755706 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/818321957 I think some strategies for building relationships with families are showing interest in their child and family. Also being culturally responsive and educating yourself on families cultures in order to understand and get to know them better. Being trustworthy and showing you care is also really important. Parents are leaving their child in the care of what is Essentially a stranger so it’s in the teachers best interest to show that they are a trustworthy person that cares about their child.]]> 2020-10-10 03:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/818321957 https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/1797783583 Building trustworthy relationships with parents and guardians can look different with each family, so the number one thing to consider when you're working to build these relationship, is to be open-minded and flexible. Every parent has hopes and dreams for the child, and above all else, they just want to make sure that they are well taken care of, and teachers should share this feeling without stepping on the parent's toes. Both parents and teachers want what's best for the child, so it's essential that teamwork takes place, and that teachers don't overshadow the parents by assuming they know what's best. There is a reason why people say that it takes a village to raise a child, and it's important to ensure that everyone involved feels that their feelings are being heard and respected. If all parties don't feel that they are a valued member of the team, then forming these trustworthy bonds will not be possible. ]]> 2021-10-06 21:03:45 UTC https://padlet.com/annie_white/ibaavmlrmpmt5x4e/wish/1797783583
