Attached are the coordinates and presenter(s) information for the 2003-2004 Reading Rockets Series "Making Parents Partners" scheduled to downlink on Wednesday, February 18, 2004 11 AM - 12:30 PM CST.
Research shows that getting parents involved in their child's school pays off. When parents play a part in their child's academic career, students have better school attendance, make greater achievement gains, and have fewer behavior problems. Schools can help teach parents how to become partners in the process of teaching their child to read.
The Teacher Center Coordinators at the Education Sevice Centers have the information about the downlink for this teleconference. There is no charge to downlink the teleconference and anyone with the equipment to downlink may do so free of charge.
