Teachers
are making home visits in order to better meet the needs of the child
and family. In promoting a partnership between parents and teachers,
home visits provide the means for effective team problem solving,
observing children in their home environment, and encouraging parent
involvement. Effective home visiting furthers the mental,
emotional, and physical health and development of the child by serving
the whole family.
Visiting
students and parents on their home is a way for teachers to learn
more about their students, get the parents more involved in their
child's education, and bridge cultural gaps that might occur between
student and teacher. Most teachers report their home visits have a
lasting effect on the child, the parent, and parent-teacher
communication.
Encouraging
parents to become more involved in their child's education by opening
their homes to teacher visits has brought positive results to the RIS.
Today RIS principal and 3 teachers visited Iman (Grade 4) and Saadat (Grade 2)`s house.
After having conversation with parents we observed many talents of Iman and Saadat.
Did you know that Iman is very good at playing the violin?
Maybe you saw him while playing the violin in our International Day, what about his interest in LEGO. He did a great models with Lego.
What about Saadat`s talents. Saadat is drawing beautiful pictures.
Really we had a great time. Thanks for your wonderful hospitality Mr. and Mrs Isali!
