Families are crucial to stimulate their
children’s personal and school development.
Some authors talk about “the
curriculum of the home” to refer
to the practices, attitudes and
education styles of families.
Some of these areas are: parents-
children interactions; routines of family
life; family expectations and supervision;
treating children as competent actors,
building their self-esteem; recreation.
There are some specific areas of
this curriculum which contribute
to children’s learning and success
at school.
In this module you will find useful tools that
might help you to promote your positive
children's development and learning.
