Case: First time communication
As someone who hasn't had much contact with parents, what are some tips for communicating with parents for the first time? Do's and Don'ts? Best ways to communicate?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would start by making a small "About Me" handout. Something as simple as "Hi, I'm Mrs. XXX" Three things you like to do. Your favorite food. Where you went to college. 3-5 facts would be a good icebreaker for the beginning of the year.
As far as communication during the year:
If you are using a text app like Remind or ClassDojo - create a cute signature or send-off at the end of your texts. That way, parents and families can understand your tone even though you aren't face to face. Something as simple as "Happy Monday!" can go a long way.
If you are in a face-to-face situation I think eye contact is extremely important. Put your cell phone away, have all of that student's work and records in front of you. Parents want to know that their child's teacher cares about them, as opposed to just seeing them as a number.
A lot of the parents will be your age or younger - but do not let that change your tone and professional language.
Hope this helps! |
