Handout for parents
In December’s eduBuzz Open Meeting I mentioned that I intended to prepare a handout, to be issued at forthcoming Instrumental Parents’ Evenings. Rather than spend 6 of the alloted 5 minutes describing what I do instead of what the pupil under discussion does, a written summary of the intended benefits seemed like a good idea. I passed around copies at today’s meeting and it was suggested that I post a copy online - for one thing, it’ll be more easily found than paper copies.

Sorry I couldn’t stay for the meeting. I’ve had a look at the handout - very informative.
Cheers
Don

Hi Alan, I really liked the idea of your handout. I will be interested to see what the parents reaction is when you show it to them. Ollie

Really good idea, I’ve always been impressed by what you do Alan. Wish I could do something similar but it would depend on the students having access to the net at home - [do they all have laptops over there? [I think Iheard of a scheme of that sort a while back]

Hi Luisa,
Thanks for your kind remarks. The pupils don’t have laptops issued by school or anything like that but most access resources on family PCs at home.
