Turning Point: Chapter 9

Chpater 9: In this chapter, the involvement of parents and the community was the main focus. Involving the parents is a great way to strengthen your teacher to student relationship and is a great way to start a parent to teacher relationship. I think that it is very important to incorporate parents in a childs education as sometimes they are just as much the teacher as we are. I also think that it is important to gauge how much support a student recieves from their home and parents. This could be a good indicator of problems that may arise in school. It is important to involve the community as well as this is where students will end up. They can show their work and this will help students develop into good citizens.
