Ready for Kindergarten truly is the essential guide for kindergarten preparedness! This book explores all that you need to know to ensure that your child or preschool age students are indeed ready to head off to big kid school. The early childhood foundations are broken down into this one comprehensive, easy to read reference guide. From everyday life skills to very basic core academics, author Deborah Stewart covers them all.
Deborah seems to understand that it truly does take a village to raise a child. This book offers useful information for parents, grandparents, nannies, teachers, or anyone who may come in close contact with your child. Each chapter of the book focuses on a large category of developmental skill sets that your child should know. Within every chapter, Deborah breaks down each of the several skills individually by: 1. What Your Child Should Know, in which she describes exactly what your child should be able to do independently upon entering kindergarten. 2. How You Can Help, in which she suggests tips and activities to help your child master these necessary skills. 3. Review, Revise, Revist, in which she suggests ways for readers to informally assess how well their child understands each skill. For each of these skills, Deborah offers practical, easy to implement teaching applications for both at home and in the classroom. The Kindle edition features clickable links that put even more resources at your fingertips.
Teachers will love this book for its ease of use as a quick reference. Parents will love the fun activities suggestions that aim to build your child's confidence and competencies in each developmental area.
