Title I teachers at Learning Exchange are expected to call parents at least once a month with good news. We do often have some difficult topics to address but always begin with the positive. Read this narrative story from a 10 year veteran teacher who has experienced the power of home phone calls.
You might get some interesting ideas as you follow some of her scripts. She advocates 15 minutes a day to make these calls and promises that they do pay off.
We know they do! Any other tips you'd like to offer our fellow LEX teachers? Please add your own 'tips & scripts' in the comments below.
