PERSONAL RESEARCH JOURNEY
This week I changed my topic because my first one would be too big to research. So this week I picked "Parental Involvement with their Preschool Age Children" The reason I chose this is for information for myself. I just enrolled my 20 month old son in a child care program and I want to know just how much involvement I should do beside just paying his tuition, or just helping him with his homework daily. I talk to his teachers daily and see the progress he is making but I feel like I should be doing more. I want to do more. I want to have an impact on all the education he will receive. I will like if any of my colleagues could give me any point about the matter. Thank You in Advance.

I in my years as a early childhood provider I welcome any involvement a parent can give. Whether it is just reading to their child at night to helping me in the classroom. Parent involvement is what you create it to be and let the director and the teachers of your son program know that you want to help. just out of curiosity what kind of homework does your son do at twenty months?
ReplyDeleteHi Trecy,
ReplyDeleteParent involvement is the most important contributor to how children perceive their education and what they get out of their education. As a parent and an early educator, I stayed involve with my son's education from the beginning. You are off to a great start! I was and still is involved with my son's education. As an educator, the more questions the parents had about their child's routine, the curriculum and the program as a hold really encouraged me to keep supplying them with information about their child and for the one's who did not ask it made me determined to share the positive things through out their child's day!
