Write three phrases that name three distinctive components of each topic. 1.Reasons for Parent Teach Problems: Varied perceptions--Parents and teachers can interpret the same behavior or performance in different ways. a teacher might claim, for example, that a student is an "undisciplined... menace," while parents might just claim that their child is "energetic." in instances like this, parents might deny that a problem even exists. Differences of social class and experience-- Since teachers generally come from middle class backgrounds, or at least, work in an institution that upholds middle class values, teachers communicate best with parents from middle class socioeconomic groupings. speaking with parents of other socioeconomic groups could provoke disagreement, as upper class parents might "look down on schools," while poor parents might "have had... unpleasant experiences with schools, and regard them with suspicion." an even more difficult program presents itself when parents are not fluent in the same languages as the teacher, in which cause communication is impossible without the aid of a translator. Overburdened parents--Most parents work full-time in modern culture, which poses a problem, as parents are either unavailable to meet with their child's instructor, or they consider themselves too busy to attend school events. because of this, it is often difficult to reach the parents, let alone communicate with them.

PARENTS - Take a very proactive, positive approach to parents. Instead of having them get to know you indirectly through the often distorting eyes and mouths of their children ("My new teacher, Miss Sniddly, hates me.
