Abstract

L’éducation commence à la maison. Si simples soient-ils, les premiers mots qu’un parent dit à son enfant lui ouvrent les portes du langage et l’initient à un monde d’exploration et de découverte. Lorsque la scolarité officielle débute, de nombreux parents croient que leur rôle éducatif prend fin. En réalité, l’éducation est une responsabilité partagée et selon les dernières conclusions de l’enquête PISA, l’engagement des parents dans l’éducation est essentiel au succès de leur enfant tout au long de sa scolarité et bien au-delà. Lisons-leur une histoire ! Le facteur parental dans l’éducation rend non seulement compte des conclusions et des analyses de l’enquête PISA, mais offre aussi aux parents, aux enseignants et aux décideurs des suggestions concrètes pour améliorer l’engagement parental, tout en soulignant les formes d’activités les plus fortement associées à l’amélioration des performances en compréhension de l’écrit. Il présente également une kyrielle d’exemples de programmes provenant du monde entier qui favorisent un engagement parental efficace et des partenariats fructueux entre les parents et les écoles. Enfin, il montre surtout aux parents qu’il n’est jamais trop tôt – ni trop tard – pour s’engager dans l’éducation de son enfant.

Abstract

While teacher knowledge is well-researched and conceptualized, parent knowledge remains largely unstudied. In response, this book details Pushor’s conceptualization of parent knowledge, the unique knowledge that arises from the lived experiences of being a parent, knowledge that is relational, bodied and embodied, intuitive, intimate, and uncertain. Drawing from her narrative inquiry into parent knowledge, Pushor shares and unpacks the stories of one participant as a way to provide a close up view of the parent knowledge a First Nations father held and used in living with and educating his children. Twelve teachers and parents then put forward their individual and contextual experiences immersed in explorations and use of parent knowledge, attending to the questions, How can what parents know enhance schooling experiences for children? How can parent knowledge, used alongside teacher knowledge, inform decisions made in schools and enhance curricular programming and outcomes for children? Using the metaphor of maps … of mapmaking … of living as mapmakers, this book is a storied account of the new practices in which parents and teachers engaged to enable parent knowledge to guide their work with children. It is an honest and vulnerable account of their journeys. The authors puzzle over the complexities and the successes of their work and the resulting impact on children, parents, and teachers. This book is an invitation to educators and parents to consider how to walk alongside one another, using both teacher and parent knowledge, for the benefit of children’s learning and wellbeing.

Abstract

Most parents know instinctively that spending more time with their children and being actively involved in their education will give their children a good head-start in life. But since most parents have to juggle competing demands at work and home, there never seems to be enough time or they feel ill-equipped to help. This book from OECD's Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) has some good news for concerned parents: it does not require a Ph.D or unlimited hours for parents to make a difference in their children's education. In fact, many parent-child activities that are associated with better reading performance among students involve relatively little time and no specialised knowledge. What these activities do demand is genuine interest and active engagement. "I enjoyed reading Let's Read Them a Story! The wide sample of countries shows the universality of the conclusions - conclusions which reassure parents that it is important to simply transmit the pleasure of reading to our children. No need to exhaust oneself finding the latest trendy children's books or educational toys; parents should simply read to children, enjoy reading themselves, and make family time to discuss what we've read."                                                                                                -Kristine Minski, mother of two

Abstract

The popular home program that lets parents teach their children to write, now in a new edition. Harvey S. Wiener shows how parents can encourage their children to write with a home program that can be used from preschool through high school. Beginning with the building of attitudes, Wiener moves through simple, varied and practical experience with the written word. By setting up an atmosphere in the home that encourages creative written expression, coupled with a parent's guidance in writing, children gain an outlook on writing that builds confidence in their abilities to use language.

Abstract

This book provides teachers with a clear sense of the Standards for Mathematical Practice, along with ideas on how best to implement them in K-2 classrooms. Using examples from his own teaching and vignettes from many other teachers, the author invites teachers to break the cycle of teaching math procedurally; demonstrates what it means for children to understand math; and explores what it looks like when young children embrace the behaviors espoused by the practices.
