PARENT WORKSHOPS
“How Do I” Parent Series
The Parent Engagement Advisors have been hosting evening sessions throughout the school year on the most requested topics from Agora families. Below are the recordings of past sessions as well future events. Our next ‘How Do I’ parent session will be on how to school multiple learners. While cyber schooling one child can sometimes be a difficult job, schooling multiple children can be a daunting task. Many parents ask the question, HOW? We’ve put together some ideas and resources to help our families who are teaching more than one child at home.
Upcoming “How Do I” Sessions:
- School Multiple Learners – December 14, 2022 @ 7:00 PM Click here to join the meeting
- Teach My Kids Online Safety – January 25, 2023 @ 7:00 PM Click here to join the meeting
Recordings
- Build Self Advocacy (RECORDING) Being a good self-advocate has big benefits for kids and adults. People who know how to self-advocate are more likely to do well in school, work, and life. Join us to learn steps to self-advocate for you and your student.
- Student Motivation (RECORDING) Student motivation is a huge challenge and is the most requested help topic among Learning Coaches and Parents. Studies show that motivation declines continuously from kindergarten through high school. On 11/16/22, Agora invited one of our Parent Mentors (a long-time Learning Coach), a School Counselor, and a Family Coach to present some helpful tips on improving student motivation. Hear what they have to say and learn about some great resources as we all work to help motivate our students to be their best.
