Working with
  Parents
An essential element to effective teaching

           Dr. Dave Kommer
What can parents do for
            us?
• Parents can positively impact the following:
    • student achievement
    • attendance
    • self-esteem
    • graduation
    • emotional well-being
• Benefits do not depend on income or education level. (It works
  for all students!)
What might parent
    involvement look like?
•Parents can help if they...
   •create a positive home learning environment
   •communicate high (but realistic) expectations
    to learners
   •become involved in children’s schooling
What gets in the way of
         parent involvement?
• Parents face obstacles, such as...

      • parents and teachers having different philosophies of what constitutes parent
        involvement

      • schools are not welcoming to parents

      • fewer opportunities to be involved

      • poor communication from schools

      • lack of parent education and parenting skills

      • Parents inadequacy with content

      • Time, job and family pressures

      • Kids tell parents not to come to school

• Add to this list the following...

      • cultural differences
