Georgia Department of Education Homework: Including Parents in the Process Training Module 4 For Teachers and Administrators Parent Engagement Program

Objectives DEFINE the role of homework IDENTIFY five key practices to help parents become more involved in homework DEVELOP parents confidence across all grade levels CREATE consistent opportunities for parents to be engaged with homework ENABLE parents to get organized and committed to working as part of a TEAM with teachers

Why is Including Parents Important ? The concept of including parents in homework can speed up a child's learning. Homework can involve parents in the school process and enhance their appreciation of education and the educator(s). It also gives them an opportunity to express positive attitudes about the value of success in school. U.S. Department of Education, Office of Intergovernmental and Interagency Affairs, Educational Partnerships and Family Involvement Unit, Homework Tips for Parents, Washington, D.C., 2003.

Define the Role of Homework Practice exercises as homework are meant to reinforce learning and help the student master specific skills. Preparation or previewing homework introduces material that will be presented in future lessons. These assignments aim to help students be prepared to learn new material when it is presented and covered in class. U.S. Department of Education, Office of Intergovernmental and Interagency Affairs, Educational Partnerships and Family Involvement Unit, Homework Tips for Parents, Washington, D.C., 2003.

Define the Role of Homework Extension homework requires students to apply skills they already have to new situations. Integration homework requires the student to apply many different skills to a single task, such as book reports, science projects or creative writing. U.S. Department of Education, Office of Intergovernmental and Interagency Affairs, Educational Partnerships and Family Involvement Unit, Homework Tips for Parents, Washington, D.C., cont’d.
