If you use volunteers in your classroom already, or have ever thought about doing so, read on. Use this valuable resource as you develop and implement creative volunteer activities, organize and communicate with community visitors, and make effective use of parent helpers in your classroom.
Parent Helpers in the Classroom provides primary and elementary grade teachers with ideas, information, activities, organizational tips, and communication guidelines for working with volunteers in the classroom and beyond. The five engaging units will answer these questions: Why should I invite volunteers into my classroom? How do I go about inviting them? What do I do with parents and volunteers to make the best use of them while they are here?
Organizational and communication tips will make your preparation hassle-free and help volunteers feel that the time they contributed was a worthwhile experience for them as well. Reproducible pages are included to save time and provide a smooth transition in getting volunteers into the flow of classroom activity.
