Partnering with Families
STREAMin3 helps programs connect with families through regular communication and shared resources.

Supporting the Home-School Connection
Just as relationships between teachers and children are critical, so are those between teachers and families. We know families play a huge role in children’s learning, at home and at school.
STREAMin3 helps programs and teachers connect with families through regular communication, shared resources, and by promoting interactions of warmth, respect and sensitivity to each family’s needs, background, and culture. We know children learn best when families feel involved and connected to the curriculum used at their child’s program.
