Journal 11
Considering that I have a very bad memory and have to journal everything for myself, I try to document everything that I learn (be it from hearing, reading, participating in, or witnessing). Documenting and filing information I learn allows me to share with my parents in so many different ways. For the parents who are visual I put information in print (flyers, letters, notice to parents, etc...) For the parents who are auditory I talk a lot (family meetings, parent conferences, resource numbers, etc...) For the parents who are kinisethic I encourage them to participate (volunteer for activities, coordinate with other parents in helping with creating policies, networking to find resources to meet certain needs, etc....) I try to connect and share with parents in any way possible. I know that, like me, some parents have to see it to understand it; some have to hear it to understand it; and some have to see it done to understand it. I am a paper person and put everything in writing but not all parents understand what they read. It is necessary for me to communicate and share with parents in whatever way I need to.
