Q2) How does the teacher create a climate for partnerships with families?
Answer: Before and during the first days of school,the teacher does much to create a climate for partnerships with family members through the use of notes,telephone calls,home visits,and greeting meetings.Initiating partnerships eases the transition of the child from home to school.If parents know the teacher is working to build positive relations with both the child and themselves,they are more likely to become involved.Teachers cannot expect to feel positively toward every family member,but by remaining friendly and accessible,most family members will respond.Family involvement in the education program can make a lifelong difference to the child and the family.

A)economic
B)social
C)religious
D)cultural
Answer: A
Q2) If a classroom conflict is due to "culture factors," do we still consider it mistaken behavior?
Answer: Teachers who use the guidance approach appreciate the ethnic backgrounds and micro-cultures of each participating family,even when different that her own. Sometimes particular family dynamics may cause children to bring level two socially influenced mistaken behaviors into early childhood classrooms.The challenge for the teacher is to be respectful of the micro-culture of the family and,at the same time,work from the principle that in the encouraging classroom we are friendly to all and no one is to be harmed.Conflicts the result of culture factors still are mistaken behaviors that children need to learn from.The teacher is firm but friendly in the teaching and works,as always,to be culturally competent.
