Accessible Family Involvement in Early Childhood
TEP outcome 6. Communicating and collaborating with families and communities for the benefit of ALL students
February 26, 2017

The very first thing the article asks us is “What strategies enable families to be full and active participants in their young children’s education?” Talk about a loaded statement.
So why is this so important? Research over the years has found a correlation between positive parental interaction and student achievement as well as improved behavior and social interactions.

    Philosophy Statement on Family Partnerships

    Family involvement in an early childhood classroom means that families work together with caregivers and teachers to create an atmosphere that strengthens learning both at the program and in the home. It includes the many ways that family members can influence children's education. For example: parents can offer both help in the classroom and information about the students that may make teaching more successful. Parent involvement means the participation of parents in regular, two-way, and meaningful communication involving student academic learning and other school activities including ensuring that (a) parents play an integral role in assisting their child’s learning; (b) parents are encouraged to be actively involved in their child’s education at school; there are long-lasting effects of parent involvement on the academic achievement of their children.

    Summary: Unequal Childhoods

    When it comes to raising a child, families fall into the category of either emphasizing concerted cultivation or accomplishment of natural growth. In Annette Lareau’s first chapter of, “Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race, and Family Life,” she talks a bit about the different families she researched and the various methods the parents are categorizing in about raising their child. Through her observations of these families, she noticed middle-class families practice a particular parenting style known as concerted cultivation, where the parents believe they must promote the growth and development of their child’s abilities and skills. These types of parents often push their kids to join a variety of activities and are very active in their child’s…

    Understanding teaching assistant role

    Ways in which the family environment may help a child in their development is likely to include a supportive parenting network, where there is a strong family tie, both parents engaging in the child's education and where there is strong interaction between the parents and the teaching staff at school. 'The parents have to be equal balance of love and limits, a child needs to have limits, boundaries, they have to have consequences but as a parent they need to put that in place in a loving way'…

    A Military Education In Equality Case Study

    In examining “An Education in Equality,” “Learning Begins at Home,” “A Military Education,” and Education on a whole, one thing is evident and a common denominator, that is, education is born at home. In fact, research has indicated that parental education is indeed an important and significant unique predictor of a child’s achievement. As a parent, having a college degree can almost guaranteed that the child will emulate that pattern. Most children have the desire to succeed in school especially with the impact of peer pressure and bribery from their parents. Parents are truly kids first teachers and more importantly their role last a lifetime. Once education becomes a priority to a parent, it then becomes demonstrative…

    Parent and Family Involvement in Education

    Parent and family involvement is extremely important in education, especially early childhood education. I believe it is crucial that we encourage parents and families to understand how important their roles are in their child’s education. I would teach parents and families what they can do to make the early childhood education school system better through: community involvement; volunteerism at the school and in the child’s classroom; their support at home in guiding their children in homework and projects by using various techniques to help them further understand what is being taught in class; advocacy for our school system; and open communication.…

    If I were a parent reading this article, I would have a better understanding of child development. I would also be prompted to think about the environment that I am raising my child in, does it have opportunities for my child to learn? I would also think about what I could do to expand my child's learning ability with just the things I have available to me, like going for a walk or just during dinner using what we are eating.

    Help Your Children Live Up to Their Full Potential

    One of the most important and effective relationships children have in their lives is with their parents. Parental involvement is essential to the early educational development of children. Creating effective learning habits will shape the child's attitude for many years to come. Despite some parents and families desire to provide the best for their children, some are unaware of how to become actively involved. Without consistency at home, children are not given the motivation needed to do well in school. Nevertheless there are several ways that parents can help their children live up to their full potential.…
