 "LEADER" On-line: Vol. 6, No. 2

 Active Parenting Publishers
Start the School Year
with Parent Involvement

 
Elementary

 
Middle School

A new year, a fresh start. Capture the opportunity with an entertaining and informative parent involvement program. The new Parents on Board Video Library shows parents how to help their children succeed in school…without doing the schoolwork for them.

Put these versatile videos to work all year long
They are brief--under 15 minutes--and leave plenty of time for discussion afterwards.
Use them for:

  • a first day of school “celebration of learning” (parents can learn, too!)
  • open house
  • PTA meetings
  • parenting resource library
  • transition to middle school

Two versions: elementary and middle school
Although the topics are the same, we’ve made versions of the Parents on Board Video Library for two different audiences: parents of young students and parents of preteens.

Each video offers entertaining scenes demonstrating common school-related challenges-and solutions. All come with discussion tips and a reproducible handout for parents to take home.

 Video 1:
“Preparing your Child to Succeed in School”

  • How to recognize and support a child’s learning style
  • How to set up a “school-smart” home
  • How to encourage and motivate children to do their best

Video 2: “Encouraging Positive Behavior”

  • What parents can do to promote cooperative behavior at school
  • Effective, nonviolent methods of discipline
  • How to work with their children's teachers to resolve conflict

Video 3:
“Reinforcing Your Child’s Academic Skills”

  • What helping children with homework really means (hint: it doesn't
    mean doing it for them!)
  • How to be an effective coach
  • Why it’s important to do fun things together as well as work
