Under the "double subtraction", how can teachers communicate better with parents?

True education is not brushed out by brushing questions, but lies in the combination of school education + family education, including family harmony and self-drive. Under the "double subtraction", how can the relationship between home and school become closer?

Create a platform to relieve anxiety for parents to "start classes"

The "double reduction" landed, the pressure on students was reduced, and some parents were anxious. As a teacher, you can teach "classes" specifically for parents. Set up "double reduction" special courses such as policy interpretation, tutoring guidance, and student growth on the Internet, and push them to all parents on a regular basis.

Or set up a "parent hotline network platform" where parents can consult questions or reflect problems; set up a "parent service center" to use the parent committees at the school level and class to smooth the communication channels between home and school.

Invite parents to the after-school class to participate in the "service" together

Communicating with the school can invite parents to participate in the "service" after class and share experiences.

Parents come from different industries, have rich life experience, a wide range of interests and hobbies, invite parents into the classroom, participate in after-school services, make good use of these resources, but also can get the support of parents. For example, parents have given their children a lesson on aviation knowledge and safety, set up a parent council structure, and mobilized the strength of the family and even society to participate.

Compare your heart to your heart and think about the problem from a different perspective

Think about what we want the teacher to do when we are parents and the teacher calls us?

For example, recently there was a child in the class who fell and injured while playing with another child during recess. At this time, we have to think about the problem from the perspective of parents, treat this child as our own child, then we are very careful and distressed, the first thing that comes to mind is the safety of the child, and we hope that he will recover as soon as possible.

At this time, as a class teacher, you must pay special attention to the health of your children. Every day, there must be at least one WeChat or a phone call to understand the child's recovery, and at the same time, to find out what happened, pass, and result, to give parents a clear answer, so that parents feel not wronged.

Such home-school communication is healthy and effective. We have just established a trusting relationship with our parents because the target we care about is the child.

The children taught as their own children to care, in the communication with parents, clear the purpose of the conversation, so that parents are easier to get started, the purpose is not too big, too blind, must have a clear task direction, and easy to operate.

The core of the home-school relationship: "Be the best version of yourself"

In addition to teaching strength, the quality of communication is an important aspect of our own doing well. In the home-school communication, teachers have formed a tacit understanding: find their own reasons in advance, and then make ways to improve. Working with such a mentality, the teacher always has a smile on his face, always has sunshine in his heart, a positive mentality, and a good start to communication.

For example, a class of children in school there is a contradiction between classmates, parents may unilaterally only believe in the child's "one-sided words", strongly blame each other's classmates and teachers, at this time teachers need to maintain an "empty cup" mentality to face the communication of parents, smile and listen, let parents vent, and then without any prejudice, patiently explain, restore the facts.

Establishing and maintaining the relationship between home and school requires a lot of meticulous work on a daily basis, such as setting up parent committees at all levels, holding regular parent open days, inviting parents to enter the campus, experiencing the classroom, holding "parent lecture halls", the school issuing communication subsidies to each teacher, encouraging teachers to communicate with parents and so on.

The school's own development and education and teaching strength is the key, so that parents can adjust themselves before they say problems, which is the core of the home-school relationship.

The teacher's language wording should pay attention to precision

"Double subtraction" will trigger some changes, and the relationship between teachers and parents also needs to be adapted in a slow run-in. As a teacher, you can't let a lot of your efforts be wasted because of your personal emotions or verbal inattention.

It is said that teachers and parents are the double oars on the way forward for children, and if the pace of the double oars is inconsistent, it must be the child who is hurt. Under the "double reduction" policy, there is more tolerance and understanding, more communication and sincerity, less friction, and less "misunderstanding".

If you put the starting point of thinking about all the problems on the child, you may be able to achieve better results.

Where there are boundaries, there is growth

In fact, any job should have boundaries. Both parents and teachers need to understand that home-school cooperation is needed, and boundaries are needed.

There are contradictions between parents and children, and parents do not listen to what their children say. As a teacher, you need to think of some ways for parents, but if parents have obtained methods from teachers but do not apply them, teachers should let parents understand and grow more.

As a teacher, you can help your child solve intellectual difficulties; encourage children to overcome some psychological obstacles; and tell parents some ways to help children complete homework seriously. Parents have parental responsibilities, teachers have the role of teachers, and the boundaries here need to be clearly distinguished.

Parents need to grow, and teachers need to let go appropriately. When communicating with home and school in your spare time, please be sure to grasp the boundaries.

The school provides more support to teachers

Under the background of "double reduction", the relevant policies of the education authorities and schools are still constantly exploring and improving, as a "bridge" connecting schools and families, teachers must not only sink their hearts and bend down to do a good job in student research and promote the all-round development of students in a proactive state, but also need to get better protection and help.

The top-level design and guidance of school administrators, and the most important thing is to guide teachers on how to do it. To replace the binding "traffic light" with a "navigator" that guides teachers to take the initiative, to guide teachers to change classroom teaching, optimize homework arrangements, and carry out after-school services, school administrators need to promote it from the whole.
