This one takes a little advance planning. Before the summer
break, ask your child’s preschool for a list of books that will be read in
class in the next year. Over the summer, read some of them with your child.
That summertime experience makes the books familiar and
gives your child a little head start. Many preschoolers are caught between
taking steps into the unknown and holding onto what is comfortable. Making the
adjustment to school—especially if it is a new school or unfamiliar teacher—can
be a challenge. So if your child “knows” a book she will feel comfortable in
the reading setting. She may even share with her teacher or classmates some of
the routines you and she have enjoyed, or your discussion about the book, or even
tell the story of how she got the book. (Was it it a surprise?) The book experience can create a new and positive
connection to the school and help put her at ease.
Nice post on Summer Reading. We all want our kids to be smart, learn faster and grow up in to a better person but for this their learning activities should be up-to-date and interesting. If want such several learning activity ideas for your kid too, then I think taking a look at http://www.kidsfront.com/math/ascendingorder.html might help you.
