Parent Introduction K-2
Parents have the most influence on their child’s development and successful transition to becoming an independent adult. You can do many things now to start your child on their path to independence. The school gives your child the tools of reading, writing and mathematics but most of their experiences are gained at home. You are the expert when it comes to your child. You, your child and the school need to work as partners to ensure a successful Individualized Education Program. Your child’s most important job is to learn to be a student. Reading, writing and math are very important. What children learn now will help them to get the job(s) they want in the future. It is never to early for your child to begin collecting the best samples of his or her work and pertinent information in a portfolio. A portfolio can be as simple as a file folder to keep important information. It could be a collection of pictures of your child working, forms that have been filled out, awards your child has earned, and samples of his or her best work. This can be passed on from teacher to teacher, or kept at home. Click on the link below to learn more about how you can help your child get started on a portfolio.
