How To Connect With Parents

Especially important at the beginning of the year, is the first contact with parents, whether by phone or at conference time.  Elena Aguilar, an experienced leadership coach, recommends that you ask parent questions.  We tend to tell parents what the students could expect from yourself, the teacher.  What is more helpful are key questions to ask parents.
Ms Aguilar shares 7 questions and explains her rationale, both as a teacher and also as a mom.  Not an article to be missed.  Excellent!
