This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study describes and compares the reading habits and attitudes of students and parents in Title I and Non-Title I schools. The study was conducted because reading is an important basic skill that all children must acquire. The information gathered can be used to help parents provide beneficial experiences for their children in reading. Chapter two addresses literature and research related to factors identified as impacting readiness for school and reading achievement in elementary-age students. Research indicates that family structure, amount of time children spend watching television, availability of learning tools, and home literacy activities may be related to school readiness and academic success. The population consisted of third, fourth, and fifth grade students and their parents in three school systems in northeast Tennessee. Title I schools included those with a 75% or higher free or reduced lunch rate. Two survey instruments were used -- a parent questionnaire and a student questionnaire. Data collection consisted of letters to directors of school systems requesting permission for schools to participate in the study, and letters to principals, including the purpose of the study and asking permission to administer surveys. After securing permissions, materials were sent to teachers, who helped coordinate the study at the school level. Chapter four analyzed the data gathered, using frequencies and percentages, with tables, charts, and figures. The questions on the surveys were analyzed to answer the four research questions. This study found that, when compared to students and parents in Non-Title I schools, students and parents in Title I schools were less likely to read at home for enjoyment, use the public library, or read magazines and newspapers. Results demonstrate that students and parents in Title I schools, overall, read less than students and parents in Non-Title I schools, reported having fewer books at home of their own, reported having fewer educational materials at home, and students were found to read to their parents less often. Both students in Title I and Non-Title I schools reported watching television every day, although the amount of time they watch varied.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to research elementary school parents to gain a better understanding of their beliefs and attitudes about their children's academic learning. The research was conducted in a small community in the Midwest. The project took place in the fall of 2005, at the elementary school, in a district that educates approximately 700 students Pre-K - 12. One hundred and fifty families had children attending the elementary school. All parents who attended parent-teacher conferences, both mothers and fathers, were asked to complete the survey. The attendance rate at parent-teacher conferences was eighty-five percent. Data were collected through a survey created by the researcher, which included five research questions. With more research on the reasons behind the barriers to parents' involvement, parents and teachers can work together to analyze areas for improvement. Therefore, it was important to know parents' attitudes and beliefs about their role in their children's academic achievement. The overall goal was to provide a framework for the school to build on their parent involvement program, both at home and at school, which in turn would help increase student achievement. Results of the study indicated that there were no external barriers that prevented parents from participating in their children's education. The main limiting factors related to parents' work schedules and hectic lifestyles. Overall, it was found that most parents strongly valued involvement in their child's learning. However, when females were compared to males, there were several items that indicated a significant difference between the two when analyzing their involvement at home and at school. Prior school experiences for parents had no bearing on their level of involvement in their child's education, and their level of involvement did not change based on the number of children in the home.
