Parents can play an immensely important role in supporting their
children's literacy learning at home, but how can primary teachers
enlist the support of parents in helping children learn literacy?
With a focus on improving children's literacy skills, this book
provides practical answers to key questions that are directly
relevant to all primary teachers and to many parents. It presents
new ways of linking learning in home and school through a range of
activities that can be used to share knowledge between children,
parents and teachers. Activities include:
- teachers and children making videos to show parents how
children learn literacy in school
- parents and children taking photos of the 'everyday' literacy
they use outside school
- parents and teachers exchanging information through Home-School
folders and diaries.
Particular attention is given to ways of working with parents
from a diverse range of family backgrounds reflecting the
multi-ethnic nature of many schools today.
The practical activities can easily be fitted into the
day-to-day activities of busy classrooms and can provide crucial
new ways of improving children's learning of literacy skills.
