Create a Parent Information Board to build relationships with families. Include a picture of the board. What information will you include? Why?
Strategize a plan to maintain regular communication with families. What methods of communication will you use? How frequently will you use them? How will these methods support all families in terms of access to the information and how will the method in which the information is delivered, be accessible to all? Will there be any barriers?

Consider some obstacles that might prevent families from being more involved. What are they? How will you address them?
