Create (5) of your own strategies that you use or plan to use to involve families in your child care program.

A student would be successful if the strategies truly invite parent involvement, and if the descriptions reflect this. Keep in mind that asking parents to donate snacks or pay for field trips are not examples of family involvement. At least 2 of the 5 strategies should directly relate to the development of children, such as involving parents in planning curriculum activities or meeting with the teacher once a month, rather that participating in fundraising events.
