Teachers need to understand that sending their students off with disabilities may be hard and emotional. Also they can be more informed about the disabilities that their student may have. I still think it is important that teachers keep the families deeply involved with everything going on at school.
Some ways to build positive relationships with families would be to schedule meetings to discuss how things are going and send home notes to the parents.
I agree with your post! I think that families would really appreciate it if teachers would have meetings to show how much their child has progressed.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the two of you also. I feel as if the parents would like to maintain involvement in their child's education to see what areas they can assist in and what areas their child is exceeding in. Parent-Teacher conferences would be a great way to communicate this information.
