New Zealand’s Home for Life Policy

Thus, social work efforts become centred on establishing permanent care arrangements with either whānau (extend…

Who is in the wrong spot? A seat on a train is the site of a war. Ask Gandhi, East Indian in South Africa: Ask me, a colored schoolmarm, in skirts, hat, and gloves. We lost the battle, and won a war. Equally colored. There is something about insult that burns bodily as o…

Parents’ and teachers’ strategies in hearing young children read
The principal way in which parents can be involved in the teaching of reading is by hearing their own children read at home. However, doubts have been expressed about their competence in this role. Despite its importance this is an under‐researched area. Most studies, whether experimental or naturalistic, have restricted themselves to teachers and to particular aspects of their performance considered to be of theoretical significance, usually the…
Home—School Communication by Means of Reading Cards
Despite the acknowledged importance of the home in children's education, and increasing interest in parental involvement, there has been comparatively little research into home‐school communication.
