Show school photos and tell about your school life and classmates. To ensure that the future first-year student is even more imbued with the upcoming changes, do not protect him from preparing the form and purchasing school and writing supplies. How nice it will be for a child to choose a pencil case with Shrek, a diary with pirates and covers for textbooks with Spider-Man! After all, studying with your favorite characters is much more interesting. Collecting a portfolio at first time will need to be with the child, because the first-graders are trying to shove in there and those books and notebooks that are not needed today. Plus breakfast, change shoes, some favorite toys, which are usually not forbidden to bring to school. Just in case, consult with the teacher about this. If the portfolio turned out to be unbearable, you can negotiate with the teacher that you will not be able to carry all the books, or with your neighbor's parents on the desk - to take half of the textbooks.
First Call Holiday
To the holiday of the first call does not turn into a routine event, it must be remembered for a long time. If the whole class at school is not marked, then parents should take care of this. This day should become a family tradition and "replenish the ranks" of home festivals. Every year, celebrate September 1st with a trip to a cafe, a trip to nature, a meeting with classmates, etc. Organize a holiday is not difficult, most importantly - a desire. A little biscuits and sweets, a sea of lemonade or juice, gay music, simple contests, bright disposable dishes, hats, whistles-dudels - and here it is, a holiday! The stars of the party, of course, are first-graders, but parents should participate in competitions, sing songs, otherwise a family holiday can not be called. Well, if the family already has schoolchildren, then this day is already familiar to the newly-made student. And if your family "goes to the first class" for the first time, then it will be easier for younger children to join the new school life. If the parents woke up early in the morning, you can come up with a new ritual - from today we get up on the alarm clock. Time should be enough to make it easy to complete all morning routines and have breakfast. With a child, you can give something from fruit, pie, cookies, a box of juice or a bottle of water. Do not forget to wash the fruit and put in a bag with breakfast swipe. After school, before you start the lessons, the first-grader must necessarily rest. Doctors even recommend daytime sleep to elementary school students.
How can I make it all?
Separately want to talk about homework. The lesson should be taught by the student, and by no means by the parents. Parental function - control. And more often it happens like this: a child comes from school, waits until evening to return from work mom and dad, then supper and only then sits down for lessons. By this time the toddler is tired, he is no longer able to perceive information, naturally, the process is delayed, and the accuracy of implementation suffers. It will be much better if the child, having rested after school, learns the lessons, and parents check in the evening. And you need to check, only the task, and not the correctness. This is already the work of the teacher. And that the first-grader was able to navigate in time, the alarm will come to the rescue: he rang - it's time for lessons. Or put the baby "reminder" in your mobile phone. And one more important circumstance. With the beginning of school life, the child is tempted to enroll at once in all sections and circles, which only is nearby. But parents should not forget that the training load and the novelty of school life require a lot of strength and energy from the first-grader. Therefore, you need to think carefully before allowing the child to attend a dance club, music school or martial arts section. If there is a possibility, it is better to wait a year for the little student to get used to a new life, enter into its rhythm, and only then to write the kid in the art studio or sports studio.
