Product Description

Review

"Easy to follow the progression of information in the chapters. Excellent supplemental resources. Easily read and understood by students …"

"The greatest strengths are comprehensive coverage, up-to-date material, relevant research, state-of-the-art organization, complete bibliographies, relevance to our present day challenges in education, reflective of parents', students' and teachers' concerns, and specific case studies related to parents' problems."

"The organization of the material is very easy to work with. By addressing families and parenting at the beginning, the text creates the opportunity for a course to be child-centered, beginning with a look at those surrounding the child and affecting the child most intimately."

Product Description

This practical text is designed to meet the needs of administrators, as well as current and practicing teachers across all grade levels who are trying to create effective partnerships with families. It provides an overview of modern families and their complex roles, to sensitize teachers to the diversity and needs of families they will encounter. The text fully discusses both the benefits of creating productive partnerships and the barriers that teachers must work beyond. Practical and effective communication strategies are described, with abundant examples. Emphasis is placed on current developments in the field of early childhood education, legislative mandates in education, and position statements from professional organizations. A discussion of No Child Left Behind and updated NAEYC Code of Ethics accreditation standards for programs and for teacher education supports this emphasis.

good book for what it is used for, but the chapters are longer and more drawn out than they need to be.
