Every teacher knows that a student’s academic success is largely determined by parental involvement. Successfully nurturing a child who cares about the environment and two takes action to protect it requires parental support as well. Again, make parents aware of your intentions by sending home letters regularly updating them on the issues you’re teaching the students and the actions you’re taking at school. Throughout this book, you’ll also find ways to have the children take the issues home and get families to take action together.
