Parent Teacher Meeting in Grade 1 & 2

Many studies have concluded that when parents are involved with their child’s education it benefits everyone involved in more than one way.  Communication between the teacher and parent allows educators to overcome several of the obstacles faced today.  The first and most important thing to understand about a PTM is that it is not just about gathering information about your child’s overall performance or about understanding the child’s behaviour in this environment but moreover understanding the strengths and weakness of a child so as to collaboratively aid the child at home and in school using or reinforcing the same skill, conceptual understanding development strategies that facilitate/reinforce  the method of learning that is most suitable to the child. A parent teacher meeting also helps foster necessary understanding and a good relationship between the parent and facilitator that is essential for the student to reach his maximum potential.

Parent Reflection:

“I’m very happy about the transparency in communication that I am observing this year through teacher contact, weekly transaction report etc. as it helps me understand thoroughly what more needs to be done with my child.

I appreciate the way children are being exposed to in depth knowledge contents and how their thinking is being boosted along with channeling of their energy constructively. Keep initiating the ideas like TV turn off week as it brought us together.”—Yuvraj’s mother
