Tapping The Potential Of Parents
 
(2009) Author Patricia Edwards describes how we can tap into the potential of parents and increase the achievement of children in school. Edwards describes how schools can link to parents by developing a more supportive atmosphere, and by providing ties to classroom lessons.  The collaborative model of teaching and learning is stressed, with real life examples from schools in Grand rapids, Michigan.

In easy to understand language, this author described strategies for a “whole school” approach to learning. Specific applications and real life problems are used to illustrate the approach. Topics covered include parenting, volunteering, learning at home, decision making, and collaboration between teacher and parent.
