The day for children to go to primary school is getting closer. Are parents and children ready? Be mentally prepared. This is the first time in a child\’s life that he or she will graduate, feel parting for the first time, leave a familiar environment, leave the swings and slides that they like to play on, and leave their good friends. Many children will inevitably show reluctance and even resist because of this. He is in elementary school, so how can we help him adjust his mood? 1. Correctly understand separation. Although you can no longer go to kindergarten with your good friends, it does not mean that you cannot meet each other. Their son\’s kindergarten teacher organized them to write classmate records for their good friends, leave each other\’s phone numbers, and write blessings. Through these crooked words, we can see the children\’s most sincere friendship for each other. In addition to letting their children exchange phone numbers with good friends, parents can also prepare small gifts and paste blessings on them for their children to give to their good friends. Commemorative Classmate Record 2 Full of yearning for elementary school The reason why children are afraid of going to elementary school is mainly due to the unknown and strangeness, so we need to let him know about elementary school life in advance. You might as well find more photos of the primary school on the Internet, show him videos, and take him to visit the primary school if possible. If there are older brothers and older sisters around you, tell him more interesting campus stories. 2. Life preparation Self-care ability is an essential ability to start primary school life. There is no longer a specific life teacher in the class. You have to rely on yourself to collect water, prepare meals, and organize stationery. There is also essential safety awareness, rule awareness, etc. So now we can no longer do everything. We need to set rules, such as going to bed early and getting up early, dressing and eating by ourselves, learning to organize our own belongings, etc. We also need to encourage him to do housework within his ability. After entering elementary school, there are dozens of children in a class and only one class teacher, who can\’t see it at all, so it is necessary to enhance children\’s safety awareness. Safety education can be provided to children through picture books, videos, etc. to keep them away from danger. 3. Preparation for interaction. Primary school life is a collective life. Children need to integrate into this big family as soon as possible. Correct interaction with new friends is also an ability. We need to teach our children how to express friendliness, such as taking the initiative to say hello to others, smiling, sharing their own things, etc. You should also take your children to participate in group activities more often and let them have more contact with children. Four Learning Preparations The biggest difference between primary school and kindergarten is the need to learn knowledge. The subject enlightenment of the three subjects of Chinese, Mathematics and English, in short, is nothing more than word recognition, reading, number sense, calculation, English listening and reading. For details, you can read what I wrote before Article, Enlightenment of bridging subjects in young children, (click on the blue words to jump) I won’t go into details here. If the subject enlightenment is done well, there will not be so much confusion in the first grade. Of course, the transition from early childhood to primary school should not only focus on mastering subject knowledge, but also pay attention to his learning interests and cultivate study habits. With the above four major preparations, if you are well prepared, your child will definitely go through the first grade smoothly.
