- KSA # 10. Teachers establish and maintain partnerships among school home and community and within their own schools.
- Work cooperatively with school councils
Ex. Organized school dances and fundraisers. - Involve parents in their children’s schooling by candidly sharing information and ideas to influence how teachers and parents, independently and cooperatively, contribute to students’ learning. Ex. I am very actively Tweeting from our classroom and have received positive feedback from parents. I invite parents to visit us for major project presentations. For examples: Reader's Theater , The Real Shorts Film Festival, Pysanka egg decoration. I update my website and we connect through e-mail. - Use home and community resources to make learning meaningful and relevant, so students can gain an increased understanding of the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to participate in and contribute positively to society. Ex. I organize many field trips. One was Grade 6 field trip to the RSMP Department in Grande Prairie, where students learned all about forensic science ( part of the social curriculum). A trip to the Grande Prairie Art Gallery, The Real Shorts Film Festival, etc. St. Mary's French Trip to Paris 2014.
