Too often, we miss opportunities to connect with the families of our students. Parents want to be involved in their children's education and our students will benefit when parents and teachers work in partnership. Math might be intimidating for some - especially when the focus is on justifying ideas or asking questions - since this way of thinking is very different from how many people experienced school mathematics. Our school has held family math nights and our classroom teachers communicate regularly with families. We are continually looking for ways to improve this partnership. This past school year, our staff watched Dan Finkel's TedTalk "Five Principles of Extraordinary Math Teaching". It is one of my favorite messages for teachers and parents alike. The message emphasizes the importance of play in mathematics and provides practical advice. As educators, we have spent time working with parents about having books available and reading with children at home. Many parents feel comfortable reading with their child and talking about books. We have not, however, always provided specific ideas and support for parents in regards to mathematics. In our grade level teams, we brainstormed ways families could interact with math at home. Our ideas included picture books, real-world applications, and games. A website seemed an efficient way to share the information with families that would allow us to update information and expand on our ideas over time. We included a weekly challenge so that the website changes each week - there is new information for families and a reason to return. Click on the image below to see our work. I would love to hear your thoughts about our website and ways that you partner with parents!
