Home - School Connections




At class, we have talk about the importance of Home-School Connections because among other reasons, when families and educators and communities work together, schools get better. Also, parents are an essential link inimproving academic success.  

We have been talking about different ways to make this connection, but the one that caught my attention was Muffins with Mom.

The idea is to spend time between parents and child in the school setting. It can be a moment to spend time together, but we can also take advantage of these activities to establish a connection between home and school.

Muffins with Mom could be a good moment  for children to explain and show, in this case to mothers, what they have learned in school and to show all their works, their play areas, etc..

We can also spend this moment for mothers to help children in their tasks. Finally it can also be a good time for mothers to establish a closer relationship with teachers, establishing a climate of confidence to work together for the educational development of children

  1. Very interesting entry Anna. I especially like the Muffins with Mom invitation which you found and uploaded. Perhaps you will have an opportunity to organize something similar at your school when you are a teacher.
