A collection of methodological techniques, or how to do it Parent meeting effective and interesting

• Use of metaphors (motivational stage of parent-teacher conference).

At the beginning of the lesson, it is necessary to motivate parents to actively participate in the discussion of the issues raised, to intrigue them. To do this, the teacher can successfully use metaphor.
A metaphor, as you know, is an indirect message of information in the form of an instructive story or figurative expression. This technique allows you to reach a person’s consciousness not directly “in the forehead”, but by avoiding defense mechanisms. Metaphor underlies the wise sayings of philosophers and writers, ancient and modern parables, and fairy tales.
In my work, I often resort to using this technique, especially at the motivational stage of parent-teacher meetings.

One use of metaphor ismethodical technique for discussing drawings - metaphors, proposed by educational psychologist S. Tsvetkova in the article “Education Issues in Pictures” of the newspaper “School Psychologist”. The technique described is based on a discussion of a drawing that, at first glance, is not related to the topic of the parent meeting. However, in the course of reasoning, parents answering the teacher’s leading questions gradually come to understand that the object (or phenomenon) in the picture, like nothing else, personifies the topic or problem raised at the meeting.
Here is one example of the use of a drawing at a parent meeting - a metaphor, taken from the above-mentioned article:

Drawing – metaphor “Sponge”(problem addressed – raising a child)

This drawing can be offered for discussion at a parent meeting dedicated to the basic principles of education, and in in this case– the principle of education based on the personal example of an adult.
According to the original author’s development, “Education Issues in Pictures,” parents, answering the teacher’s leading questions, need to compose a fairly detailed story based on the picture presented to them. And only then is it announced to them what educational moment the drawing under discussion is associated with.
In my work, I use this technique in a slightly different way - from the very beginning I try to activate the parents’ reasoning with the help of direct, pre-prepared questions to the drawing - metaphor. This is due to the fact that often parents, when they come to a meeting, try to avoid any activity (express their own opinion, make a remark, ask a question, show their own knowledge on the topic), not wanting to seem incompetent in matters of education, fearing to make a mistake when answering a question, etc.

Below are the teacher’s questions and sample answers from parents (those to which it is advisable to summarize their reasoning):
– What is shown in the picture?
– Sponge ( parents ).
– Let’s try to list the qualitative characteristics of this item. What characteristic property does it have?
– It absorbs liquid well ( parents ).
– Let’s imagine what will happen to a sponge if it absorbs liquid of blue color? How will this affect her?
– The sponge will turn blue ( parents ).
– What if we pour red liquid into the sponge?
– The sponge will turn red ( parents ).
– What if we simultaneously pour liquids of different colors into the sponge?
– The sponge will become an incomprehensible, indeterminate color ( parents ).
– At the beginning of the discussion, we determined that a feature of a sponge is its ability to absorb. What word do you think the word “education” comes from?
– Parents express their own assumptions.
– The word “education” is derived from the words “nutrition”, “absorption”. It was not for nothing that I drew attention to the commonality of the roots of these words, because a child in childhood, like a sponge, absorbs everything that his parents “pour” into him. You can convince a child for a long time that smoking is harmful, punish him for his bad habit. This is meaningless if he sees with what pleasure his father or mother, older brother or other people around him smoke. He will most likely “absorb” the example of older and respected people.
– Can you now name one of the the most important principles raising children?
– Parents speak out.
– Of course, this is the principle – education by example.
Having slightly modified the described technique and selected other metaphor drawings, I often resort to it in my practice - and not only when holding parent-teacher meetings, but also when providing psychological education to teachers.
So, in my “piggy bank” the following drawings appeared - metaphors (Annex 1 ):
– Metaphor drawings “Lock” and “Keys”(the problem addressed is the need for an individual approach to the child, knowledge of psychological patterns child development; methods of education).
– Drawing-metaphor “Egg”(the problem addressed is the age crisis, for example the crisis of 3 years).
– Metaphor drawings “Swan, crayfish and pike” And "A trio of horses"(the problem addressed is the lack of consistency in upbringing, unity of requirements for the child).
– Drawing-metaphor “Backpack”(the problem addressed is preparing the child for school).
To others possible option the application of metaphor isdiscussion with parents of an ancient or modern parable, selected by the teacher in accordance with the plan of the meeting.
So, for example, when discussing with parents the issue of the consequences of rude, uneducational treatment of a child, I use the text of the famous Eastern parable “Everything leaves its mark”:
“Once upon a time there lived a hot-tempered and unrestrained young man. And then one day his father gave him a bag of nails and punished him to drive one nail into the fence post every time he could not contain his anger.
On the first day there were several dozen nails in the pillar. Another week he learned to control his anger. And every day the number of hammered nails began to decrease.
The young man realized that it is easier to control his temperament than to drive nails.
Finally, the day came when he never lost his temper. He told his father about this. And he said that this time, when his son manages to restrain himself, he can pull out one nail at a time.
Time passed, and the day came when he was able to tell his father that there was not a single nail left in the pillar.
Then the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence: “You did well. But you see how many holes there are in the pillar. He will never be the same again. When you say something evil to a person, he is left with the same scar as these holes. And no matter how many times you apologize after that, the scars will remain.”

No less effective is the demonstration of animated films based on parables, followed by their discussion (Appendix 2 ).

Wise sayings of philosophers, quotes from writerscan be used to design a thematic stand or a memo for a parent meeting - as the main idea of ​​​​all the information presented (Appendix 3 ).

• Questionnaire for working with parents (diagnostic stage of parent meeting).

When talking with parents about a particular problem (children’s aggressiveness, anxiety, psychological readiness for school, etc.), I want this conversation to be substantive, so that parents, at least roughly, have an idea of ​​whether they have the difficulties described. child. After all, not all parents are critical of themselves and their child; they are not always able to see the problem they have in the family, in the process of building a relationship with the child. Other parents simply may not have enough special knowledge to objectively assess the situation.
In this connection, there is a need to use express questionnaires at parent meetings. It is clear that such questionnaires cannot provide an in-depth analysis of the existing difficulties, however, they allow for a first general assessment of the existing situation.
The proposed questionnaires should be easy to understand and process by the parents themselves at the meeting. Among such questionnaires, the following can be distinguished: questionnaires “Signs of aggressiveness”, “Signs of impulsivity”, “Signs of anxiety”, “Child’s readiness for school”, “Parenting styles in the family”, etc. (Appendix 4 )
In order for parents to be sincere in their answers to the questions of the questionnaire, before conducting the questionnaire they need to be given the instruction that the data obtained during the diagnosis will be known only to them, and there is no need to voice them to the entire audience.
Having received specific information about themselves and their child based on the results of the survey, parents will most likely listen more quickly to the teacher’s words and be more willing to take into account his recommendations.

• How to present theoretical information in an interesting way (the main stage of the parent meeting is the study of theoretical information).

Studying any topic involves turning to theoretical knowledge. Without revealing the basic theoretical principles on a particular problem, its correct understanding is impossible. At the parent meeting, the teacher needs to introduce parents to the basic concepts that reveal the problem at hand. To ensure that parents' introduction to the theory is not boring and uninteresting, the teacher needs to approach the issue creatively.
There are a number of methods for non-standard presentation of theoretical information.
A similar methodological approach is exercise "Associations" (borrowed by me from the technology of teaching critical thinking to schoolchildren; in the original this technique is called “Cluster”).
The teacher presents to the parents key concept topics and invites them to name as many words or expressions as possible that, in their opinion, are related to the proposed concept. The main condition is not to repeat what has already been said by others. All statements are recorded on the board. When the flow of parental associations dries up, the teacher generalizes the parents’ knowledge and gives new theoretical information on the problem, unknown to the listeners.
Let's consider an example of using the “Associations” exercise at a parent meeting on the topic “Psychological characteristics of adolescence.”
Key concept: “Adolescence.” Parents freely name their associations associated with the concept, resulting in the formation of a cluster (bundle):

The teacher summarizes everything the parents said:“Adolescence is a transitional, turning-point age (since during this period there is a kind of transition from childhood to adulthood). It is believed that this period is more difficult for training and education than the younger and older ages, because associated with the restructuring of all mental processes, activities and personality of the student".
And the remaining associations, not reflected in the generalized conclusion, are used as support for explaining new theoretical material.

Another, no less interesting exercise for parents to study theoretical information isexercise “Portrait of a “special” child”(proposed by the authors Lyutova K.K. and Monina G.B. for working with parents of children with developmental difficulties).
A schematic image of a “special” child, for example, an aggressive one, is hung on the board (the topic of the parent meeting is “Influence family education on the development of aggressive behavior in a child”).

Parents, even before the teacher provides theoretical information on the topic, are invited to try to draw up a portrait of such a child themselves - to describe his inner world, as well as external manifestations of behavior. The resulting description is adjusted, if necessary, by the teacher and supplemented with information unknown to parents.

• Harmful and useful advice (the main stage of the parent meeting is practicing practical skills).

Very often, a teacher working with parents has a question: how to properly give them recommendations so that they are listened to, taken into account, and also implemented in practice?
Experience shows that a simple listing by a teacher of recommendations for interacting with children (even the most meaningful and effective) will not leave a trace in the minds of adults. This knowledge will not be personal until it is experienced. Only by being involved in a direct discussion, “trying on” the educational situation for themselves, can a parent understand the positive and negative aspects of certain pedagogical influences.

A standard exercise for developing and discussing the optimal pedagogical strategy for interaction with a child is exercise " Discussion of problematic situations."When discussing typical and atypical pedagogical situations, the teacher unobtrusively makes it clear to parents how to act in a given situation. Each teacher needs to accumulate a “piggy bank” of similar educational tasks for parents, which he will later use at meetings (Appendix 5 ).

A more interesting and non-standard method of introducing parents to psychological and pedagogical recommendations is“Bad advice” technique.
One day I came across a memo for teachers - “Useless advice”, following which can significantly worsen a younger student’s attitude towards learning (author – Yu. Klimakova). This memo, similar to G. Oster’s “Bad Advice,” gave recommendations (or rather, anti-recommendations) on how a teacher should communicate with a child. This memo formed the basis for the methodological technique I developed, “Bad advice or How not to communicate with a “special” child.”
At the meeting, parents are offered “Harmful advice” on communicating, for example, with a 3-year-old child, during the discussion of which it is necessary to understand how such an attitude towards the child will affect his development, as well as jointly develop the correct strategies for behavior with a “special” child.

This presentation of theoretical and practical material allows parents to see their mistakes in raising a child with certain difficulties; Instead of the existing strategy for communicating with him, think of a new, more optimal strategy based on psychological and pedagogical laws.
So in my “piggy bank” appeared “Bad advice” for parents of aggressive, anxious, hyperactive children (Appendix 6 ).

Many interesting methodological techniques for discussing optimal strategies for building relationships between parents and children are offered by Lyutova K.K. and Monina G.B. These are techniques such as:
– « Ambulance» (parents, working in groups, develop various methods of prevention and corrective influence on a child with a particular problem),
– “Letter on behalf of a child”with a developmental problem (parents, working in groups, draw up an appeal to parents on behalf of the “problem child”, how he would like adults to interact with him), etc.
Each of the presented techniques is interesting in its own way and can be adopted by a teacher to work with parents.

• Summarizing (reflective stage of parent meeting).

At the end of the parent meeting, it is necessary to summarize the meeting. When summarizing the issues raised during the conversation, the teacher can again turn to metaphor - read a parable or utter a quote, a philosophical statement.
In my practice I often useexercise “Briefcase with useful things”. Before my speech, I give out the so-called “Briefcase” to everyone who comes to the parent meeting (Appendix 7 ), and I propose to fill it out during our meeting with a variety of tips, recommendations, reminders, interesting techniques for working with children, etc.
At the end of the parent meeting, I focus attention on what the Briefcase was filled with during our meeting, and also encourage them not to stop there and continue to replenish it further.
I end almost every parent meetingdistributing reminders to parents, which reflect the main theoretical aspects, as well as individual practical recommendations (Appendix 8 ).

It is clear that within the framework of this article it is impossible to describe all available methodological techniques to increase the effectiveness of parent meetings. I am sure that their multitude is not limited to those I presented to the attention of readers. The teacher, working with parents, must constantly search for such techniques to use in their practice.

How to conduct your first parent meeting?

The first parent meeting is special meaning in the formation of a team of students, in the unification of parents and the formation of the parent community as a collective. How it is carried out largely determines whether goals and requirements will be agreed upon and whether cooperation between parents and school will be established.

Target meetings - defining common approaches to education and prospects for cooperation between the school and class parents.

The required time is 1.5 hours.

Organization:

the meeting is held in the office assigned to the class, a common “round table” is created or chairs form a common circle.

The “Business Card” technique is used - each parent’s name and patronymic are signed with a marker on the sign, followed by the child’s last and first name.

Business cards are located on the tables in front of each parent.

Design:

newspaper “Portrait of a Class”, epigraphs for the parent meeting, phonograms of melodies. A video recorder has been prepared with video recordings of the class on the “Day of Knowledge” line, on the thematic class hour, “Parent’s Memos” on the number of families in the class, note paper, class photo (15x20 cm).

Participants: in addition to parents, there may be specialists from the school’s psychological, pedagogical and medical and social services.

Preparation:classroom teacher preliminary analyzes information about parents, collects up-to-date information about the class with teachers, consults with specialists - psychologist, social educator, doctor.

Process:

The class teacher is helped by the “Council of Affairs” from among the students of the class - the guys arrange tables and chairs, decorate the classroom, meet parents, escort them to the cloakroom, to the classroom, and register those who come.

Quiet music plays, parents get acquainted with the information presented in the classroom.

At the appointed time, the class teacher offers to sit at the round table and place business cards. Names and explains the purpose of the meeting, identifies the conventional stages in the work process: acquaintance, guidelines, plans and prospects.

Acquaintance

It begins with the class teacher talking about himself.

A comment: It is very important for parents to know which person they trust with their child. Therefore, they would like to have information about the class teacher. The need for this information is great, and the best option is to get it first-hand. In addition, the class teacher’s sincere story about himself sets the tone the necessary level of trust in communication.

Then the class teacher offers acquaintancesweat with everyone present.

Here you can use "Class Photo" reception:“I have in my hands a photograph of our class taken on September 1 of this year. I know that every family has such a photograph, you probably looked at it, perhaps the child shared his first impressions. Using this photo, we will get to know each other. I will name the child’s last name and first name, showing him in the photo, and you, dear parents, identify yourself and introduce yourself.”

A comment: the use of this technique, as a rule, evokes positive emotions in parents, which creates an atmosphere of trust and interest.

Classroom teacher explains the features of the school, talks about traditions,mode, mode of activity, expected resultsresults. Showcases school symbols(emblem, flag, anthem, uniform elements),explains its meaning for the education of studentsXia. Each parent is given a “Memo for the parent" (or booklet -business card schools ).

Can be used reception "Microexcourse", when the class teacher or one of the children takes parents through the school museum, the “History of the School” exhibition, and a photo gallery.

Reference point

This is the second stage of the meeting. The class teacher defines general approaches to education, speaks about the need for close cooperation between family and school, and about forms of cooperation that are characteristic and traditional for the school.

Work in micro groups. 7 minutes“What do I want my child to look like when he graduates from school?”

The teacher asks each microgroup to present their vision of the problem. The topic for discussion is “How do I want my child to graduate from school?” When the time for discussion has expired, one parent from each microgroup is invited to express the most general opinions. The class teacher records on the board the qualities of graduates that parents want to see, significant values. Summarizing the opinions expressed, the class teacher necessarily draws the attention of parents oncoinciding values schools and parents, draws attention to the fact that results in the development of students’ personalities can only be achieved through joint efforts, in close cooperation.

The class teacher draws attention to the fact that the movement towards long-term results begins today, in the process of specific actions, and then presents a vision of the organization of life in the classroom: values, model of organizing activities, requirements, regime moments. Hands out a printout with the necessary information (or offers to write it down): what, where, when it will happen.

The teacher agrees with parents on the regularity of meetings and the information system, explaining their importance.

Conducting parent meetings

A parent meeting is the main form of collaboration between teachers and parents, at which decisions are discussed and made on the most important issues of the life of the classroom community and the education of students at school and at home. Its main purpose is its coordination, coordination and integration of the efforts of the school and family in creating conditions for the development of a spiritually rich, morally pure and physically healthy child’s personality.

Today there is a need to hold parent meetings in order to improve the pedagogical culture of parents, the activity of their role in the life of the class, and responsibility for the education of students.

Why are parent meetings needed?

To quickly obtain a variety of information about children. In this case, the class teacher needs to carefully think through and clearly formulate the questions to which he wants answers;

As orientation, instructive meetings in case of changes in the life and activities of the class team, requirements for children, work hours, etc. At such meetings, you can find out the parents’ opinions on the issues brought up for the meeting;

To familiarize parents with the analysis of academic performance, attendance, results medical examinations etc. But this should be analytical material, “without fried facts”, the names of parents and children;

As advisory services on career guidance, employment of children, employment in the system additional education, study and vacation mode. It is good to invite a psychologist, subject teachers and other specialists to such meetings: employees of the SDSD, criminal police for DD, etc.

As an emergency, emergency in an acute conflict situation, an extremely difficult case with one of the children. This is collective advice from adults on how to help a child in trouble or a mother in need of help;

How to discuss fundamental issues together with students;

Like showing the “product face” when children show their parents their Creative skills, sports achievements, applied skills, etc. Such meetings are very useful and interesting for both parents and children;

Like meetings-lectures, psychological training, role-playing games on various topics and problems of education and training. Such meetings can be held frequently (once a month) as a general education for parents.

Note to the teacher

1. The parent meeting should educate parents, and not state the mistakes and failures of children in their studies.

2. The theme of the meeting is developed taking into account the age characteristics of the children.

3. The meeting should be both theoretical and practical in nature: analysis of situations, training exercises, discussions, etc.

Seven rules

successful parent meeting

1. Respect!
2. Help!
3. Explain!
4. Trust!
5. Learn!
6. Ask!
7. Thank you!

Secrets of a successful parent meeting

IMPORTANT!!!

• Talk about the problem, not personalities.
• Celebrate successes and reserves. No discussion of a specific child! If you praise, then praise everyone for something.
• The class teacher does not dictate correct solution, but stimulates the search for it by a group of parents.
• Use illustrative examples- as it should, as it is correct.
• Do not turn an individual consultation into a demonstration (I talk to one person - everyone stands around and listens).

Forms of conducting

parent meetings.

• One of the wonderful forms of parent meetings is a written form, when the class teacher sends parents some documents, developments, parents evaluate them and make their suggestions.
• Parent meeting with students.
• A parent meeting in the form of a presentation of families, their traditions, skills, relationships, and views on education.
• Parent meeting in the form of a cafe.
• Parents' meeting on a campfire.
• Parent meeting in the form of a game.
• A parent meeting in the form of a press conference, when either specialists of interest to parents are invited, or they find themselves among the parents.
• Parent meeting in the form of pre-created research groups who report the results of their research and surveys at the meeting.
• Parents' meeting for men.
• A parent meeting in the form of a discussion of pre-written proposals and ideas for improving the organization of class life.
• A parent meeting in the form of a press conference of subject teachers and subsequent individual consultations.

Rules

Parent meetings.

1. When preparing for a parent-teacher meeting, the class teacher should be most concerned about the emotional level of the meeting.
2. If parents for the most part do not go to meetings, it means that they do not love their children, or they are against the form and content of the meetings.
3. It is best when the parents themselves, if necessary, the students and the class teacher play an active role in holding the meeting.
4. The class teacher needs to learn how to talk deliciously, inventively, wonderfully and originally about life in the classroom and about the children.
5. Parents only develop love for school and for the class when they take a lot of and good part in the life of the class.
6. The parent meeting always ends with individual consultation of parents, which is carried out by the class teacher, psychologist, social worker, and subject teachers.
7. A parent meeting in the form of a monologue by the class teacher is the least successful form of holding it.
8. It is important to always remember one feature of all meetings: no matter what is discussed at them, no matter how excited and noisy the debates are, however, after the end of the meeting, everything that was so passionately argued about is immediately forgotten. It is necessary immediately during the meeting every idea, every proposal, every piece of advice, if they are accepted by all or the majority, in as soon as possible, following fresh steps, together with the most interested parents, develop it to the level of a planned task and begin implementation.
9. The class teacher is simply obliged to squeeze out of parents all their capabilities, all their skills and knowledge for the benefit of the children and adults.

5 Goodbye school! (joint holiday)

There is an opinion that parent-teacher conferences are a common approach to establishing contact between schoolchildren's parents and teachers. However, this belief is incorrect. First of all, the main goals of such a meeting should be considered to be a discussion of the successes and failures of schoolchildren, as well as effective techniques impact on them. Naturally, the key figure in this event is the class teacher, who must organize an interesting and informative parent meeting. How to do it? We'll tell you in today's article.

Selecting topics and forms for parent meetings

In most cases, the topics for parent-teacher meetings, whether in secondary or elementary school, are developed a year in advance, so it would be great if parents also take part in choosing topics that are interesting to them. At the end of the last semester, conduct a short survey, thanks to which parents themselves will determine a list of issues that will definitely need to be discussed next year.

The question arises: what topics will be relevant and interesting for parents? Well, their range is quite wide, so we suggest you familiarize yourself with these: “Life after school or how to choose a university”, “How to cope with a difficult child”, “Problems of learning”, “Student in adolescence”, “Pros and cons of school uniforms”, “School student’s daily routine”.

As for the form of the meeting, here too it will be necessary to seriously prepare. Remember, you need to try to “ignite” moms and dads with your approach to organizing this event. Among the most interesting forms it is worth noting: the pedagogical ring (where the opinions of parents and children collide), various conferences of parents where they can exchange experiences in education, tea meetings, small press conferences with parents, discussion meetings, etc.

Conducting a parent meeting

Remember the main thing - any parent meeting should consist of three parts: introductory, main and final. The duration is no more than one hour.

Introductory part

The main task of the introductory part is to organize parents and create a favorable atmosphere for conversation, which will allow them to concentrate the attention of both the class teacher and everyone else. This very atmosphere can be created by interesting design office. However, do not forget, everything should be in moderation: moderate light, quiet music, the audience should not be decorated in colorful colors, chairs should be arranged in a semicircle or U-shape, so that it is convenient to divide parents into several groups. As soon as moms and dads get into the room, they will immediately appreciate your efforts.

By the way, before the meeting we also recommend making a small exhibition creative works schoolchildren. These can be either notebooks of excellent students or drawings made in fine arts lessons. You can also set up a corner where parents can see the students’ current grades.

This small exhibition of drawings will also help to attract the attention of parents.

You can choose strict, cheerful or casual style communication, but under no circumstances speak to parents in a didactic tone. You communicate with adults, many of them are older than you and certainly understand many issues no worse.

Then thank all the moms and dads for coming. Don't forget about the lyrical beginning: music background in the form of a piano or guitar, as well as thematic poems will allow parents to get unnecessary thoughts out of their heads and get ready for work. Well, by presenting an interesting and intriguing topic, you will definitely pleasantly surprise them!

Main part

As a rule, the main part of the meeting begins with a speech by the class teacher, talking about the main aspects of the topic under consideration. The message should be concise, since, as we know, attention span at the end of the working day leaves much to be desired. IN otherwise parents will ignore the information you convey and begin to think about their own affairs.

Your main task is to interest parents in the topic of discussion

Thus, it is necessary to ensure that parents do not become passive listeners under any circumstances. Try to ask them as many questions as possible, give various examples from personal practice, analyze the problems that arise modern teachers, and encourage parents to watch short documentary videos related to the meeting topic.

Then move directly to class discussion . When talking about undesirable behavior of schoolchildren, do not mention their names. Also, you should not make complaints against parents or discuss the personal life of a particular student. The main thing here is to work together to develop several ways to solve problematic situations.

It will be very good if, in addition to video recordings, you can offer parents various illustrations, graphs, and even interviews with children in the group. All of the above will allow parents to be as interested as possible in your performance.

It’s worth finishing the main part with fun and interesting competitions that will definitely appeal to moms and dads . For example, you can hold a competition called “Attention, Conflict.” Its essence is to learn to find a compromise in disputes and resolve them constructively. Offer parents three conflict situations, listen to their opinions, and then work together to find ways to solve them.

Try making some paper crafts with your parents

Another funny competition called "Self-Portrait". Before the parent-teacher meeting, children will need to draw self-portraits. The parents' task is to guess the drawing of their child. Also try a master class on making photo frames or origami.

Final part

At the end of the meeting, the teacher carefully listens to the parents’ questions and answers them.

The final part is often called “miscellaneous”, because at this time parents and the class teacher begin to discuss everything that is not related to the main topic of the event. These are mainly financial and organizational issues, as well as plans for the near future.

At the end, summarize the meeting by listing the main points for resolving each of the issues that were recorded in the minutes. Well, then you can have a tea party. You don’t need to prepare a luxurious table; just stock up on boiling water, tea bags and dried fruit. In an informal setting, parents will feel more relaxed, so they will quickly become sociable.

A small reminder to the class teacher

• Respect your time and your parents' time by scheduling meetings at least a week in advance.. It will be better if you specifically indicate the start and end time of the event.
• Provide information about possible summer jobs for students, talk about their prospects and success at school.
• Don’t forget to mention innovations in the educational sphere, the best foreign and Russian forms, where a completely different form of education is practiced.
• Praise parents often for raising a student well. Sometimes you can give mom or dad a small certificate or letter of gratitude.
• At the end school year analyze your joint work with your parents over 4 semesters, and also be sure to make a plan for the next year.

Thus, an interesting and informative parent meeting will effectively combine the capabilities of family and school in the upbringing and education of students. The main task of the teacher is to make parents active participants in the event and give them the opportunity to ask and discuss absolutely any questions.
