10 Ways to Prepare Your Child for Kindergarten
Posted by Stephanie Carlson on 8/22/2019
1. Read books everyday.
2. Develop fine motor skills: holding a pencil, coloring, cutting with scissors.
3. Print first name with only the first letter capitalized.
4. Learn to follow 2-step instructions: “Please go get your shoes and then put them on.
5. Use good manners: “Please” and “Thank You”
6. Talk about social skills: sharing, taking turns, positive words, talk about handling anger.
7. Help your child take responsibility: clean up messes, dress themselves, get their own snacks.
8. Practice number recognition: Count objects daily.
9. Practice letter and sound recognition. Practice saying the letters and their sounds every day.
10. Build self-esteem. Praise your child often because Kindergarten is hard!
