Your lovely baby is growing up. Soon he will be 6, 5 years old - this is the age when a child can start school. Are you wondering how to help your child get ready for school?
Instructions
Step 1
In the fall, the child is going to go to school. This period coincides with the transition age crisis of 6-7 years. The first thing to do is to help the preschooler adapt in a new environment for him. It's great if the kid attended preschool. Unlike domestic peers, children in kindergartens are taught the skill of communicating with both peers and adults. Children after preschool institutions have an idea of the regime moments, are familiar with the rules of behavior and norms in educational institutions.
Step 2
Most of the parents believe that it is enough to teach the child to read, count, and even better write in block letters. But this is not the main thing, the physiological and psychological preparation of the preschooler is much more important. Memory, thinking, attention, the ability to act independently, a positive attitude towards school, self-control, all these signs will play an important role in further studies. Encourage the child's desire to go to first grade, the desire to "become big" When communicating with the child, tell the child about school more often. Why will he go to school, how should he behave in lessons and at recess? When talking about school, try to set up your child positively, if he is afraid, calm down, explain. Take the preschooler to school and introduce some of the students and teachers and the child will get an idea of the school. Take your child to the store and buy a briefcase.
Step 3
Teach the preschooler emotional-strong-willed skills: regulate your emotions, be able to maintain performance for a certain time, not interrupt others in a conversation, be attentive. It is necessary to instill a number of communication skills: the desire to communicate with the team, the ability to establish contact with peers and with teachers, maintain equality and do joint work.
Step 4
If you feel that your child is having a hard time coping with all the demands, wait until next year. Give him time to develop. Be especially attentive to children with health problems. Also, boys lag slightly behind girls in physiological and psychological development. But in any case, the decision of the parents will be important.
