It's almost that time again. Children all over will be heading back to class. But for some students, it will be their first year ever! That's why it's a good idea to start preparing your child for that now.
Here are some tips you can use:
-It's important to pre-register your child. Bring their birth certificates, immunization records, a verification of residence, and a social security card (helpful but not mandatory).
-Meet the teachers and get your child acquainted with their new environment.
-Know what supplies your child will need.
-Be enthusiastic toward school!
-Establish routines.
-Talk with your child about what to expect.
-Teach basic social skills: how to share, taking turns.
-Be involved and stay interested.
