Parent-Teacher Relationships - Teacher Training Resources
When Bible teachers keep the lines of communication open between them and parents, they can be a support system to one another, ultimately benefitting the child. Building good relationships with parents is a way to reduce the number of unknowns. The less unknowns, the better teachers will be able to manage the classroom and meet students' needs.
Use this two-page worksheet, Without a Good Parent-Teacher Relationship, You are Walking into Unknowns, to think through how to improve parent-teacher relationships.
