Ways You Can Help At Home
* Give your child duties around the house to develop self-confidence and responsibility. * Be sure your child listens to others and follows simple directions, one at a time. * Demonstrate and teach your child to help others including brothers, sisters, and pets. * Supervise viewing of T.V. programs. Thirty minutes per day is a good average for children in Kindergarten. * Talk positively about school. * Teach your child to be independent about appropriate toilet habits. * Teach your child his/her full name, parent's names, address, and phone number. * Establish a regular pattern for sleep (10 hours). * Make sure labels are on all personal belongings, with both first and last names. * Reserve a little time after school each day to talk about your child's day. Please offer encouragement and praise. * Encourage your child to look forward to Kindergarten as a happy, friendly place. |
