10 Ways to Communicate with Your Child’s Teacher1. Meet your child’s teachers early in the school year. Don’t wait for a problem. 2. Ask teachers about their goals, rules, and limits, and how often you can expect to hear from them. 3. Tell teachers about your child—special interests, likes and dislikes, strengths and weaknesses, and any major changes in his/her life. 4. Get involved at school. Volunteer in the classroom and for special events and field trips. 5. Make sure the school knows your schedule and how to reach you. 6. Let teachers know the good things your child says about them. 7. Ask questions when you have concerns and stay informed about what’s going on at school. 8. When requesting a meeting, state your general topic so the teacher can prepare. 9. Avoid automatically taking sides, whether the teacher’s or your child’s. Try to stay objective and state your observations only. 10. Stay calm - never accuse or attack. Share what you would like to see happen. Be specific and ask for details.
Remember—Your child learns by watching you. Demonstrate good negotiation skills.
