The Parent Connection:  Creating a Partnership Between Home and School: A Review of the Literature

By Candy Allen

The relationship between school and home is often an awkward one.  Parents are misjudged, teachers are misunderstood, and expectations at both ends are different.  Throw in the challenges of special education, add a dose of miscommunication, and you have a recipe for a challenging school year!  What can be done to prevent this and create a successful, working partnership between home and school?  This paper explores five published articles that address different aspects of the parent perspective and involvement with hopes of shedding light on this essential piece to building a successful, collaborative relationship between home and school.

      Positive Behavior Intervention to Improve Study Skills

      By Janine Castro

      Educators, and all school personnel, who are involved in a child’s education, have a common goal; which is to improve the academic and behavior performance of all students. There are plenty of new strategies, and approaches that teachers can use daily to help students who struggle with behavior and academics. Many of these approaches include positive behavior interventions to improve students’ study skills (McKevitt & Braaksma, 2008).  Study skills are an important factor in students’ success, especially as these students’ progress from middle school to high school.

        Using Augmentative Communication to Teach Non-Verbal ASD Students to Communicate

        By Chelsie Madiedo

        Background

        Augmentative and Alternative Communication methods are very effective when working with non-verbal ASD children. According to American Speech Language Hearing Association, “Augmentative and Alternative Communication methods (AAC) includes all forms of communication (other than oral speech) that are used to express thoughts, needs, wants, and ideas. We all use AAC when we make facial expressions or gestures, use symbols or pictures, or write” (American Speech Language Hearing Association, 2017). “There is evidence that children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder often have restricted verbal communication” (Bedwani,2015). Therefore, communication methods are imperative for non-verbal students. When researching the effectiveness of one of the AAC Programs (LAMP), eight children that were limited with communication skills previously showed gains after using the Program LAMP for a total of five weeks.

        Secondly, non-verbal students have difficulty expressing their needs and wants on a daily basis with their natural voice. “Children require the use of augmentative and alternative communication to help them communicate” (King, 2012). However, there is a problem, since using AAC as far as a form of communication, is especially difficult. “One way that has seemed to help is by providing peers with knowledge and skills on how to interact with children who use AAC, and has produced positive results” (King,2012).

          Parental Satisfaction: Issues with Special Education and Possible Solutions

          By Louris Otero

          Introduction

          Parent Satisfaction with the current education system and programs for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder varies. Most of the literature suggests that parent satisfaction is mostly high. But a careful review of the literature also implicates that changes can be made in the areas of teacher training, parent communications to increase parent involvement and increased funding for families with unmet needs in an effort to further improve parent satisfaction. There are issues with the readability of parental safeguards and a lack of general knowledge about ASD. There is yet another concern for parents who view caring for their disabled child as a major burden, and the lack of support services as a child ages out of the system. All is not lost, however. Researchers have found possible solutions as the following review of the literature confirms.

            Parent Advocacy and Involvement for Children with Disabilities

            By Ashley Randall

            Parents and families serve an important role in the academic success and achievement for students. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), recognizes and emphasizes the benefits of parent involvement and participation in a child’s education. It is important for parents/guardians to be involved in their child’s academic career in order to be advocates for them, and ensure they are receiving all they need. However, many barriers may exist that may hinder parent involvement and advocacy. When barriers are addressed, and teacher- parent partnerships are made, research shows that students’ can have greater success in school. When parent involvement is absent or limited, students with disabilities are vulnerable to receive inadequate and inappropriate services (Burke, 2013.)

              Effectively Preparing Educators and Staff to Empower Diverse Students Within an Inclusive Classroom Setting

              By Mary Samour

              Abstract

              Reading various works of literature surrounding culturally and linguistically diverse students, I felt there was a need to identify how educators could grow within a multicultural curriculum. Reviewing how students are placed in special education or early intervention services either at a delayed point in time or not at all due to certain factors takes away opportunities for students. These barriers need to be addressed in the education and political system.
