Family Living Focus by Marcia Weber York Co. Penn State Extension Ready, Set, Go Getting Children Ready To Go Back to School I’m beginning to see the ads for all those school supplies; pen cils, pens, backpacks, notebooks. Is it really that time again? Where did the summer go? How well I remember those final weeks of summer just before school started. Our daughter would secretly feel the stress of the unknown and exhibit behav iors that we did not recognize. She was cranky, irritable and just generally hard to be around, very different from her usual pleasant demeanor. We discovered after some in vestigation that she was con cerned about the upcoming school year.

Who were the other children in her class and how would they treat her? What things would she be learning? Could she handle all this new material? What about the bus ride? These concerns and many oth ers are on the minds of our chil dren, especially those who will enter school for the first time this year. Some of the best gifts we can give our children are the skills needed to do well in school. As a parent you can help your child succeed. Following are some suggestions to help ease the transition and give them some skills for going to school. Talk to your children about your own school experiences and how you felt. Ask them to share their feelings with you. i sectional 'v Reverse Chaise Lounge Can be put on, Left or . v \ f Right Side - Reg Ret $260000 J 51049 95 049 _ -js ' o' ' SOFAS’ ‘IoVESEAT ' Reg Ret $1599 95 CLOSEOUT j Price $749 95 $ 449° 3 , o' ' TM/IN/TVVIN BLINK BED ' Black or While ?

If you are excited and confident your child will be too. Visit your child’s school before the year begins. If possible meet the teacher and see the class room. Gradually change your child’s bedtime and morning routine to mirror what you will practice for school days. If this is your child’s first expe rience with school, visit your li brary and find books about going off to school. To help with their language skills read aloud to your child regularly, at least 20 minutes every day is best. Play “Let’s find everything in the house that starts with the let ter M’ (or any letter you choose). To help with math skills, talk about numbers in your daily rou tine, for example, “How many plates do we need on the table? One for Mommy, one for Grand pa, and one for Jenny.” Ask your child questions such as “Which has more or less?” Or, “Which one is bigger/smaller?” To help build science skills take your child to visit oceans, swamps, parks, airports, etc. and talk about what you find there.
