Going to kindergarten is important. Children can feel excited--and a bit
worried. This colorful book, sold in five-packs, helps children think
about the new experience of going to kindergarten by addressing
cognitive and social-emotional topics. As adults read the pages and help
children write and draw, children talk about what they already know
about kindergarten and anticipate what they will do in school. This book
provides children with a thoughtful and fun way to prepare themselves.
And it becomes a special keepsake for the family! Detailed lesson plans
offer four different ways educators and caregivers can use the booklet:
-
with the children in their classroom or family child care home;
-
with parents in a parent-education workshop;
-
with parents and children together at a parent-child activity event;
-
with a parent and child together during a home visit.
