Analyze each activity described below and indicate the family engagement strategy to which it pertains. Ethel makes little felt bears for each student and sends them home with the children. Ethel asks parents to take pictures of the child and their bear at different places they visit over the next month (parks, stores, museums, relatives' houses, etc.) and to email the pictures to her. Ethel prints the pictures she receives and invites children during morning meeting to talk about the places their bears visited. She uses children's descriptions and retellings for language samples. Ian knows that one of the parents in his classroom is a musician who performs at a local church. Ian invites the parent to join the class for morning meeting one day to provide an instrumental accompaniment as children sing familiar songs. Gabriella, a toddler teacher, has a student who has recently exhibited challenging behaviors. The child's primary parent is not usually the one to pick up the child, and the child usually arrives before Gabriella is scheduled to clock in. After talking to the child's mother over the phone about ways that they can regularly communicate, she labels a composition book with the child's name and uses it to describe daily activities and/or challenges. She sends it home with the child, and the child's mother responds to each entry with her own comments, feedback, and recommendations. During its monthly parent meeting, program administration shares information about an upcoming program-wide unit of study and invites parents to share their ideas for activities or outreach experiences. Parents' ideas are discussed and incorporated into the unit plan.

How are you preparing to help your family, friends, co-workers and others in your support circle understand what is needed to be successful in your program in terms of time commitment to your studies?

A parent comes to you and shares that they have no idea how to support their child's emerging language. Create a resource that would share important information with families on how they can support infant and toddler communication and language.
