Teachers know that connections with families will reap benefits,
but they struggle with the "how." Research shows that there is a
link between family involvement and their children's academic
success. Other research shows that children learn best when
instruction is meaningful and connects to the knowledge they and
their families hold. Family nights are after-school, evening, or
weekend events which involve families (adults and children) in
enjoyable and academically grounded activities and experiences.
Family nights provide a way for schools to learn about and from
families and for families to learn about and from schools. The
ultimate beneficiaries are the students who benefit from such
increased involvement and from improved communication and
understanding. Reproducibles and other materials include: "
Invitations " Agendas " Sign-in sheets " Evaluation forms "
Activity worksheets " Handouts " Overheads " Additional resources "
Connections with national standards " Tips and suggestions for an
outstanding event Includes information on adaptions for special
populations, issues around providing food and incentives, and
cost-saving ideas. Each chapter is a self-contained unit,
containing all information, suggestions, and materials for planning
and running a successful event. All family night designs have an
academic focus and are aligned with standards. This book is
appropriate for primary teachers and headteachers or anyone in the
school or district responsible for family involvement.
