Classroom+Newsletter

Newsletters are usually one page of short informational blurbs, much like a newspaper. Pictures and other graphics can also be included. Newsletters can be in print form and sent home with students or available online. Some teachers offer the classroom newsletter in both formats. They are a great way to update parents on what is going on in the classroom or in the school. It is also a great way to showcase student activities and achievements. Newsletters help to establish a good rapport with parents. They keep lines of communication open and show that the teacher wants to keep parents involved in the classroom activities.

Newsletters are easy to create, especially if using a website such as [|Education World]. Websites such as this one offer templates that are ready to use with multiple layout options, some also include seasonal artwork. Teachers can edit the existing layouts to create a unique newsletter that suits their needs. Teachers simply type in the boxes and add pictures and other graphics.
