[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's kind of funny when parents think they know how to do a teacher's job better than the teacher. What would really be funny is if the teacher showed at your workplace and instructed you on better ways to do your work. [/quote]

Constructive criticism is actually good for everyone so I wouldn't mind if it meant I learned a new way of doing something. Also, a teacher spending 5 mins to write an email to parents explaining what they are doing that week and what should parents expect to come home, etc. would go a long way to making many parents comfortable with what is actually happening in the classroom.

The truth is everyone wants to know what their kids are actually doing from 8:30-3:30 everyday, (I know that I'd be pleased if they can do just 1-2 hours of real learning, even if they socialize the rest of the time...) The problem is I don't have a good idea if they are even doing that much right now in 1st grade.. certainly very little completed work comes home in DC's folder, much less than what I was getting back last year in his kindergarten).[/quote]
