Parental involvement inspired through class website

Parental involvement is essential in any classroom and in any child's life. Having parents involved helps students to keep an interest in school. Children like to have their parents around! That's the bottom line. 

By having a classroom website a teacher is encouraging parental involvement.  This is just what some students need to keep them excited about their classroom.

I believe that parent involvement is an important part of every classroom. It is so true what you said...childrens like to have their parents around! Encouraging parental involvement can be done through a teacher website. This also keeps parents updated with what is going on in their child's classroom.

I agree that parental involvement is extremely important to a child’s education. With their help it makes learning easier and more interesting. If the parent is excited about learning the child will be to. Plus, the parents are spending quality time with their child. This is also very important because in today’s world, parents don’t always spend enough time with their children, due to their job or other factors. This goes along with your statement of, “Children like to have their parents around.” Plus you stated that, “A classroom website encourages parent involvement.” I completely agree with this statement. There are many resources available so a parent can stay updated. Then they will always know what is going on and what their child will be learning about. So, classroom websites kept both the parent and child excited about learning.

Parental involvement is crucial in the educational success of a child. By utilizing a teacher website, parents will be able to communicate with the teacher, access important information such as field trip forms, schedules, or homework assignments, and keep updated with their child's classroom!
