Engaging Diverse Parent’s Project
Sometimes, when you dig a little deeper on a website that you have explored many times before, you find a page, (or an article, link, photograph, quote) that you never noticed in the past. Today I found this on the NAEYC website, there is a link to the Engaging Diverse Families Project.
There you will find the following 6 Principles of Family Engagement.
-
Principle 1: Programs invite families to participate in decision making and goal setting for their child
-
Principle 2: Teachers and programs engage families in two-way communication
-
Principle 3: Programs and teachers engage families in ways that are truly reciprocal
-
Principle 4: Programs provide learning activities for the home and in the community
-
Principle 5: Programs invite families to participate in program-level decisions and wider advocacy efforts
-
Principle 6: Programs implement a comprehensive program-level system of family engagement
