Included below are kind messages and comments received from families through the various platforms used for communication. Apps include ClassDojo, Remind, email, and Google Voice.

Using these platforms has allowed the parent-teacher partnership to flourish.

In addition to utilizing apps for parent communication, I have also found that tracking parent communication, especially phone calls provides valuable data on students and keeps an open line of communication between the classroom and home. To do this, I have utilized Google Forms to track communication with parents. The same form is able to be ulitized throughout the school year and data can be exported onto a Google Sheet for easy sorting by student.
