Session 3 – Strengthening and Sustaining Good Relationships with the School Community
Preliminary Activity:
During your first month of teaching, were you able to get to know the parents of your learners? What were your struggles and how did you
overcome them? Limit your response to 200 words.
Reach out to your colleagues (preferably newly-hired teachers)
and share your thoughts with your co-teachers. Write down
the ideas you got from them:
2. Your lesson for tomorrow is about different professions/jobs. You want your learners to meet professionals and those working in the
community.
In planning the lesson, you wanted to prioritize the safety and maximize the learning experience at the same time. You thought about
conducting a field
trip but it will be very costly and will require rigorous planning to make sure that the activity will be safe. What is an alternative way to
conduct this activity?
Fieldtrip are often considered a key part of the school experience. Students often look back on them as some of their favorite
and most memorable days in school. However, traditional fieldtrips are not always feasible options. They can be expensive, time-
consuming to organize, ang quite stressful in action. Perhaps, your most simple and convenient option for a fieldtrip alternative is to
show your class about documentary of different professions/job. No matter the subject, you can find a documentary that your students
will be interested in.
3. Mrs. Cruz, a parent, went to your class confronting you because her daughter told her that you moved the child’s seat away from her
friends to make her concentrate on your lessons. Your actions were triggered by her non submission of assignment and throwing a
crumpled paper at you. How will you explain your side to Mrs. Cruz?
Instantly thank the parent for bringing her concern to your attention. Apologize for both the problem and for causing parents’
concern. Take any steps necessary to calm Mrs. Cruz and help her to relax. Discuss with her about misbehavior of her child in a nice
way and the reason why you move her child away from her friends to make her concentrate on your lesson. Be careful the language
used when communicating with parents. End your conversation by reiterating that you’re going to take care of the problem.
4. The general PTA meeting is fast approaching and you need to ensure at least 90 percent attendance of parents. How are you going to
invite the parents to ensure their attendance and participation?
To ensure their attendance and participation, I will send personal letters at home to notify the parents of conference dates.
Outline agenda that will show interest on them and emphasize the importance of t he conference to their children’s education. Do
everything possible to avoid scheduling sibling’s conferences on different days or at widely desperate times. Base the length of the
conferences on the needs of the students. If necessary, schedule two consecutive periods with parents you suspect might require more
time. Send home personal invitations to the conferences and ask parents to RSVP by a specific date. Contact parents who do not
respond and encourage them to attend.
YES 3. Angelo always skips class every afternoon. He never does his assignments too. He is one of the struggling learners in Ms. Bada’s
class. Since he has been acting this way for almost two weeks, Ms. Bada immediately called his father, Mr. Cruz and set an appointment.
She told Mr. Cruz of Angelo’s behavior in school and he promised that he will be watchful of Angelo.
NO 4. During the online class where Janna is attending, she failed to understand the instructions of the teacher because of internet
connection failure. Mrs. Manza, her mother, sent a message to her teacher and asked for further discussion about the instruction because
Janna was not able to
get it correctly. Her teacher did not respond to her.
YES 5. Mrs. Hugo sent three activity sheets to Lerio’s house through the Barangay Health Worker (BHW) for her to answer. As soon as
Lerio finished answering, her mother brought back the activity sheets to school. She explained that she is on her way to the market so she
didn’t wait for the BHW to
come over and get back the activity sheets. Mrs. Hugo was very grateful.
Optional task:
List down top 5 strategies to increase parental involvement
in school and share it with your co-teachers.
1. Connect parents and schools
2. Create an organization structure
3. Consider parent’s time
4. Identify and support learning environment
5. Home visits and parents’ teacher conferences.
