Building Support for Your School: How to Use Children's Work to Show Learning

by Judy Harris Helm

This book demonstrates how educators can use children’s work to communicate what is being learned in early childhood and elementary school classrooms. Extending the work begun in Windows on Documenting Young Children’s Work , this new book combines Judy Helm’s experience with documentation and Amanda Helm’s expertise in marketing and public relations to provide the tools educators need to present powerful evidence other than test scores that children are learning. Part I explains the need for school personnel to communicate more effectively and examines how professional strategies can make a difference. Part II presents seven strategies for implementing more effective professional communication. Part III is a handbook of resources on communication techniques. Book
