Re: Any kindergarten pointers? Ah, first day of Kindergarten!! Such a milestone... try to relax a little and enjoy it. Our school likes the K to ride the bus the first day, so we put DD on the bus, then drove to meet her. We walked her to her class, took pictures, and then made our exit. Really, she did not need us, she had been to Pre-school, and she was super excited to go to school... it was all for me!! K teachers are usually sunshine, rainbows, and bunny rabbits - your child will be fine. We were really concerned about her doing her best and behaving, so we stressed that every day. Also, we wanted her to get into the habit of telling her about her day, so at dinner we always talk about what was her favorite part of the day, any problems, who she played with at recess, who she ate lunch with. If she has a friend over at dinner time, they get the same questions. Maybe have a special meal or a little party when he comes home, to celebrate his special day. Enjoy!! |
