6 Important School Tips for Parents From a Principal

For teachers, parents can be your worst enemy or your best friend. Over the course of the last decade, I have worked with a handful of the most difficult parents, as well as many of the best parents. I believe that the majority of parents do a terrific job and genuinely try their best. The truth is that being a parent is not easy. We make mistakes, and there is no way we can be good at everything. Sometimes as a parent it is critical to rely on and seek advice from experts in certain areas. As a principal, I would like to offer a few school tips for parents that I believe every educator would want them to know, and that will also benefit their children.

Early Childhood Education Consultants

How Hanen Helps Early Childhood Education Consultants/Trainers Build Language and Literacy in the Classroom


In your work with early childhood educators, you want to make sure you're equipping them to create environments that are rich in opportunities for language-learning throughout the day. 
Since the development of language and social skills in the early years is so important to the future academic success of preschool children, early childhood educators need to be sensitive and responsive to their students’ communication needs in order for those skills to develop.
That’s why it’s so important for those who train or consult to educators to have practical, user-friendly resources to share with educators that will really help them understand how to promote children’s language and literacy development. It is also critical to be familiar with the principles of adult education so that you can facilitate educators’ learning in ways that foster retention and application of interactive strategies, making long-term behaviour change more likely.
