This is one of the most important half hours you will spend this school year on your child's behalf. Here are some tips to take with you on the big day. Maximizing Your Time Stay focused. Yes, it's great to look around at the artwork on the walls of your child's classroom, but save the sightseeing tour for another day. Your goal is to get as much information about how your child can do his best in school from the person who spends almost as much time with him each day as you do.
Most people learn in a combination of ways, but usually do best with one area.
You'll want to find out how your child behaves in class, how he pays attention to the task at hand, and how he interacts with other kids in the class. These are equally important pieces of the learning pie. If that's not possible, call her on the phone or write a note intorducing yourself. Tell the teacher how important your child's education is to you. This will break the ice and make you allies in your child's future.
