Partnerships with families
Information for Parents
Established relationships with parents means we can share information positively and effectively to support children as much as possible.
-
Encourage Exploration
Foster curiosity by encouraging your child to explore and experiment with the coding concepts they are learning in class. Asking questions like, "What new thing did you try today?" or "What project are you working on?" helps them connect their classroom experience with real-world applications.
-
Stay Involved
Participate in regular check-ins with your child to discuss their progress, challenges, and accomplishments. Showing interest in their coding projects motivates them and lets them know that you value their learning.
-
Create a Learning-Friendly Environment
Help your child set up a distraction-free space for coding at home. A quiet area with access to necessary tools, like a computer or tablet, will enhance their focus and productivity.
-
Encourage Problem-Solving
Coding often involves problem-solving, so guide your child through the process of breaking down challenges into manageable steps. Encourage them to be patient and persistent in troubleshooting any coding errors they might encounter.
-
Celebrate Achievements
Whether it’s completing a small project or mastering a new coding skill, celebrate their progress! Positive reinforcement boosts confidence and inspires them to keep learning.
-
Stay Informed
We offer parent resources, newsletters, and workshops to help you stay informed about the curriculum and progress of your child. Engaging in these materials helps you support your child’s coding education at home and provides valuable insight into their development.
