Case: Parent Enjoys Projects
During a regular parent conference, the parent was informed about an up-coming science project. The parent was very excited and shared that she liked doing projects. She enjoyed using her creativity and cute ideas. I want parents to support their students by assisting with materials and guidance not completing the student's work. After all, it is not fair to the student who does not get any help at all or has limited resources. What suggestions do you have for limiting the parent's hands-on participation, yet welcoming their support otherwise?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I agree with completing the projects in class. My first internship was in a fifth grade class and they have to complete the STEM fair. My cooperating teacher knew that if she wanted to she what the students abilities were that the work would have to be completed in class throughout a extended time span. This gives an even level playing field for students who may not have the extra help or materials at home to provide the same quality work as everyone else. You can still involve the parents by having a parent night where they come in and view the projects. |

| Comments: Having the students do the project in class and making time for that is a good solution to making sure the parents aren't doing the project for their child at home. |

| Comments: If I were in this this situation, I would exactly do this. Having an even playing field and at the same time allowing the parents to view the projects is a good approach to this concern. |

| Comments: This idea is great because it allows everyone to be even on their work. Some students may have more parental support than others so having them all work in the classroom on their projects lets them all feel good about themselves, and know that they did it on their own. Also parents can come in for a night so the students can show them what they did and how. It allows the parents the chance to be proud of the work accomplished on their student's own at school. However, there may be some things that have to be completed at home due to time, but at least you know that the majority was completed at school with you monitoring them. |
