Family and Community Partnerships
Tuition: $28.50
Course Overview
Strong partnerships with families are built on good communication. Families will communicate their needs to you, and in turn, you will communicate what resources are available. From welcoming parents and children in the morning to saying good-bye at pick-up time, your day will be filled with verbal interactions and conversations with parents, children, and other staff. When teachers understand families as a system and the impact of parenting in early childhood, they are better able to develop partnerships with families and to help create an environment that meets the needs of each child. In this course, you will learn the basics about communicating with parents, we will highlight appropriate ways to collect information from families, as well as the ways and opportunities to share information in a caring way.

It was so easy and practical to be able to log in when I had the time....Being a single mother working full time, it allowed me to further my education, when i probably would not have had the opportunity to do so otherwise. - Informative Program Posted by Rebecca on 27th Aug 2014
