How can I make sure my child is prepared to enter kindergarten?
assistant
Start by talking with your child about what they are looking forward to about starting school. Ask them questions about their favorite things, and how they feel about being away from you for the day. 2 Make sure your child has all of the necessary supplies before they start school. This includes a backpack, lunchbox, and any other items that may be needed. 3 Help your child practice their reading and writing skills so that they are comfortable using these tools in kindergarten. 4 Have conversations with your child about what to expect at school, such as rules, expectations, and social interactions. 5 Take time to explore the school together and help your child become familiar with the environment.
