Grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation items relevant to school-related tasks also appear in each chapter.When possible, real-life texts have been included, and links to websites relevant to the K-12 educational system can be found throughout the book.

The authors hope this book will help empower English-learning parents to develop their communication skills so that they can become active members of their school communities and confidently claim their agency in supporting their children's education.
