  Case: How Much is Too Much?
I am in graduate school for my Masters in Teaching. A question that I have is how do you know how many emails or updates to send a parent? I don't want to be too overbearing but I also want to communicate a lot with the parents so that they are understanding where their child is and how they are doing. Is there a better way to reach the parents other than email?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I don't think there's such thing as too much correspondence. If you are looking for a form of communication that isn't email, you could send home news letters. As you start a new lesson, you can send home a "What We're Learning in ygaQaQ's Class" news letter. These letters can go home with the students in their folder (if you use those for homework and such) or they can be by the classroom door for parents to pick up when they're there.

Comments: I agree with using letters in folders and that there is never "too much" communication! Letters are a great way for parents to physically see what is going on in the classroom.
