Behaviour Management - Active Citizenship, School and Parent Engagement

Summary

In this unit we have talked about Active Citizenship and School and Parent Engagement.  We learned that Circle Meetings are an effective tool for encouraging active participation and valuing the contribution of every learner in the classroom. We looked at how to set up a Circle Meeting and suggested appropriate topics for discussion. 

We also discussed Parent-Teacher Meetings and the importance of planning regular communication with parents. We outlined the steps to take in order to have a successful Parent-Teacher Meeting. 

We look forward to hearing about your Circle Meetings and Parent-Teacher Meetings and learning from your experiences with these two ways to promote school and parent engagement.
