"Own" Your Children's Education

"Helping them isn't about showing your kids how to do the work.It's about being genuinely interested and having regular conversations about what they're learning,''says J.Gary Knowles，a professor at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education，part of the University of Toronto.

Rozon has a slew of suggestions for how to get more,-involved."Get to know the teacher.Discuss ways to tailor the assignments to your child's learning style.Spend time in the classroom.Ask for outlines of unit studies so you can find supplementary materials at the library or through videos.Read your child's textbooks：If you work a few pages ahead，you'll be able to help them with problems they encounter.''

Reading is another must，says Rozon."Even after your children can read themselves，hearing somebody else read aloud is important.We nearly always have a book on the go1; we read for at least a half hour before bedtime.

The more engaged a parent is, the more the child benefits，adds Bruce Ami."The evidence is clear：Parental involvement is One of the most important factors in school success.Arai cites the National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth，sponsored by Human Resources Development Canada(HRDC)，which is measuring all aspects of child development."The hours children spend in class are but2 one element of their education''，states HDC，which says parental support，along with teacher support and a positive attitude towards school.all contribute to academic success.

"I see every moment of every day as a learning experience." says Goforth."The most satisfying part of it is seeing the，love of learning continued.I'm not squelching my children's desire to learn by insisting they learn. They learn because they want to."

Adds Jeanne Lambert，mother of Carey Graham: "Make the time3，take the time4，guide，lead，and encourage.If nothing else，your children learn you care，and that's the most important lesson you can give them."

译文：“拥有”孩子的教育

多伦多大学安大略教育学院的教授J.Gary Knowles说：“帮助孩子不是告诉孩子怎样做。你要 对他们所学的东西真正感兴趣，并和他们经常进行对话。”

怎样才能更多地参与，Rozcm给了许多建议。“与老师相识，并讨论怎样量体裁衣地布置一些 适合你孩子学习风格的作业。花些时间在教室里。索要每个单元的提纲，这样的话，你可以在图 书馆或者电视里找到补充材料。阅读孩子的教科书：如果你能提前读几页，你就能帮他们解决遇 到的问题了。”

Rozcm认为朗读是另外一件必须做的事情。“即使你的孩子已经能自己阅读了，听别人大声朗读也是重要的。我们几乎总是有一本书在读，每天睡前我们至少阅读半个小时。”

Bruce Ami说，父母投入越多，孩子获益越多。“有证据清楚地表明：父母的参与是孩子在 学校的学习得以成功的重要因素之一。” Ar佑引甩了加拿大人力资源发展部(HRDC)发起的一 项对孩子发展的各个领域进行测量的全国青少年纵向调查。HRDC表明，“孩子在课堂的时间 只是他们所受教育的一部分”，父母的支持、老师的帮劢和对待学习的积极态度都会促进学业 的成功。

Goforth说：“我把每一天的每一刻都看做是学习的经历。” “最满意的部分就是看到对学习的 热爱得以延续。我不会一味地压制我的孩子对学习的渴望。他们学是因为他们想学。”

Carey Graham的妈妈Jeanne Lambert补充说：“抽出时间，花点心思，去指引、引导和鼓励。 即使没有别的收获，你的孩子也会知道你在乎他们，这是你能够给孩子上的最重要一课。”
