Obtain Children: Applying children's own observations from experience will broaden both expertise in the scientific process and their knowledge and understanding of the world. Observation can also provide the catalyst for informed debate promoting much discussion even amongst very young children. Children learn to obtain information from an object by consciously looking in detail at its features. Developing observational skills enables children to look more closely for clues that will extend their ideas and promote understanding. Developing the skills of observation -enables children to see details which might otherwise have been missed.
7 We also run a school lending library where they can obtain two books at whatever level they desire. These are changed on a weekly basis.The entire school is organized to give parents a full share in planning and participating in their children's education. Literacy is the key to almost every subject and, as such, is a good way in to real partnership with parents. We try to create an environment where children, parents and teachers can be relaxed, confident and secure with each other.
Ideally, when parents come to the meeting they will find colourful posters (one of them a permanent chart showing times when teachers will be available to see them during the week), well-produced 'Home reading cards' and a booklet advising 'How to hear your child read', or similar (see Figure 1). Some schools obtain children's books on a sale-or-return basis and run a bookstall at the meeting, so that parents can actually buy books to read with their children on the spot, and this is always popular.
You may also have produced your own video, starring children and teachers from the school, and demonstrating how, and how not, to hear children read. This is a great audience better discussion time as well as giving parents who don't like talking in public the chance to ask questions. If you have many parents who speak other languages, consider whether an interpreter or two would be useful.
