Particular With Parents: Children learn first and foremost from their parents. In this respect all parents are teachers - and very effective teachers they are. Arguably, children learn more from their parents in the first five years of life than they do from their schools in the next ten. This book is about parents and teachers working together to help children particular with parents their learning; more specifically, it is about parents co-operating particular with parents teachers over their own children's reading. We have chosen the term PACT (Parents, Children and Teachers) to embody this concept.
It cannot be stressed enough that the school is entering into a partnership, and that the parents particular with parents whom this partnership is to be formed have their own opinions and feelings, which need into account. Teachers will find it possible to devise a set of guidelines for use by parents which they can feel perfectly confident about sharing. In our experience, though, there are one or two temptations to beware of One is to make your advice to parents much too complex, because of anxiety about parents getting it 'wrong'.See Also Discussed With Parents 29:Some schools have attempted to develop their partnership by involving parents in other aspects of the curriculum: numeracy and primary science have been common choices, often because parents wanted to know more about these areas. Metrication and set theory have muddled many of us, but where schools have discussed with parents 29 these topics with parents the response has been positive and many have expressed their gratitude for the demystification.
Often the topics are broader in nature, and may include discussions on parents' rights or the implications of education acts. Attendance by parents at such meetings is generally high, doubtless because they believe that the knowl¬edge they gain may help their child, but also because they find the subjects discussed with parents 29 interesting and worth knowing about in themselves.
On The Other Hand See His Parents And His:Children do have all kinds of pressures put on them his parents and his but in our experience, when the school and hoi work closely together, these pressures can be, relieved. But t school must get its contribution across to his parents and his clearly, aj continue, often over a long period of time, to help tho his parents and his who particularly need its support.
Children whose his parents and his aren't interested his parents and his who genuinely aren't interested in their children education must be quite hard to find; we haven't met any ye though doubtless they must exist. Where the school takes th trouble to contact aJl its his parents and his, the rate of take-up on th home reading schemes we have described is extremely higr.
In questions like these, common sense and good teaching coincide. They can also be fun, for his parents and his as well as children. More than anything else, a good book is something that his parents and his and children can enjoy together. Teachers have undoubted skills and experience that most his parents and his do not have; his parents and his have the advantage of emotional bonds conducive to learning that schools can never provide to quite the same extent. Thus his parents and his' work complements that of teachers - and children receive the benefit of a partnership between what are, after all, the most important adults in their lives. |
