Increasing Parent Involvement in a First Grade Chapter I Public School Classroom Program.
Doty, Jeanice J.
This practicum was designed to increase parental awareness of the importance of participation in a student's "daily" educational program. The specific goal of the practicum was to increase parent involvement in a first-grade Chapter 1 public school classroom program serving predominantly Hispanic American migrant children. It was expected that, as a result of the implementation effort, (1) 85 percent of involved parents would sign students' completed homework and have it returned to the teacher; (2) 85 percent of parents would participate in a parent-teacher conference; (3) 85 percent of parents would sign and return a questionnaire demonstrating evidence of parent participation; and (4) 144 homework assignments would be completed and turned in to the classroom teacher. To address these goals, a highly motivational, structured program was implemented. All projected objectives were achieved. The Parent Questionnaire and a teacher/parent conference summary form are appended. (RH)
