Summary | It is important to involve parents in their children's education so that it continues after school is over. A way to do this is to assign homework that involves parents or involve parents in a school day. However, not all parents have time for this because they work a lot. Another way to keep parents involved in their children's schoolwork is sharing it with them on social media. There are programs to share photos or classwork videos with parents.
