Work with parents

Parents may notice behaviors at home that they do not observe at school and vice versa. Maintaining open lines of contact with parents will ensure consistency in working with pupils who are experiencing emotional or behavioral difficulties and will reduce misunderstandings. Make a strategy to connect often with parents who require more frequent touch than others, so they are aware of what is going on in the classroom and can update you on what is going on at home.

When you return to class, you will be able to assist pupils in additional ways. Empathy should be the first step in providing assistance. As a result, the most important thing any teacher can do is learn about this student's disease from the parents, so that classroom behavior and learning problems may be addressed. Children are empathized with and are not misrepresented.
