Scholarly Engagement & The Parental Connection
Holding your scholars accountable from home for their time at school can be a challenge. Here are some strategies to manage student engagement.
-
Discuss key points. Have regular discussions with your scholar about their day and the material that they are learning.
-
Connect learning to practical life skills. Bridging applications for daily interactions and concepts learned can help scholarly involvement and critical thinking.
-
Communication. Regular communication with your scholar’s instructors is among the best ways to know how your scholar is engaging in their school day.
