　　1

　　Children’s Hours at Home

　　2

　　However important we may regard school life to be,

　　3

　　there is no denying that children

　　4

　　spend more time at home than in the classroom.

　　5

　　Therefore, the great influence of parents cannot be ignored

　　6

　　or discounted by the teacher.

　　7

　　They can become strong allies of the school personnel

　　8

　　or they can consciously or unconsciously hinder curricular objectives.

　　9

　　Administrators have been aware of the need

　　10

　　to keep parents informed of the newer methods used in schools.

　　11

　　Many principal have conducted workshops explaining

　　12

　　such matter as the reading readiness program

　　13

　　and developmental mathematics.

　　14

　　Moreover, the teacher,

　　15

　　with the permission of the supervisors,

　　16

　　can also play an important role in enlightening parents.

　　17

　　The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year,

　　18

　　as well as new ways of reporting pupils’ progress,

　　19

　　can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay

　　20

　　between school and home.

　　21

　　To illustrate,

　　22

　　suppose that a father has been drilling John in arithmetic processes

　　23

　　night after night.

　　24

　　In a friendly interview,

　　25

　　the teacher can help the parent sublimate his natural paternal interest

　　26

　　into productive channels.

　　27

　　He might be persuaded to let John participate in discussing the family budget,

　　28

　　buying the food, using a yardstick at home, setting the clock,

　　29

　　calculating mileage on a trip

　　30

　　and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis.

　　31

　　If the father follows the advice,

　　32

　　it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize

　　33

　　his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics,

　　34

　　and at the same time, enjoying the work.

　　35

　　Too often, however,

　　36

　　teachers’ conferences with parents

　　37

　　are devoted to petty accounts of children’s wrongdoings，

　　38

　　complaints about laziness and poor work habits,

　　39

　　and suggestions for punishment and rewards at home.

　　40

　　What is needed is more creative approaches in which the teacher,

　　41

　　as a professional adviser,

　　42

　　plants ideas in parents’ minds for the best utilization of the many hours

　　43

　　that the child spends out of the classroom.

　　44

　　In this way,

　　45

　　the school and the home join forces

　　46

　　in fostering the fullest development of youngsters’ capacities.
