What is one way teachers can involve families in their child’s education?

Sending regular newsletters home is an effective way for teachers to involve families in their child’s education because it fosters open lines of communication and keeps parents informed about classroom activities, important dates, and educational goals. This consistent communication encourages parents to engage with their child’s learning and to feel more connected to the school community. Regular updates can also provide opportunities for parents to support their child's education at home and participate in school events, reinforcing the idea that education is a partnership between the school and families. Employing this strategy helps to build a collaborative environment where families feel valued and informed.
