The Helping Your Child publication series from the U.S. Department of Education “aims to provide parents with the tools and information necessary to help their children succeed in school and life. These booklets feature practical lessons and activities to help their school aged and preschool children master reading, understand the value of homework and develop the skills and values necessary to achieve and grow.” Click here for the publication.
The NJDOE Families Portal is “intended to be a central location to provide support and information related to parent and family engagement in student learning and development. It is also a navigation system designed to help parents and families understand how the education system works at the state and local levels. In addition, the portal is a dynamic source of ideas for educators and families who are seeking ways to strengthen their partnership programs.” Click here for the portal.
