- Do not idealize or demonize the image of the school. You can describe your childhood experiences to your child (the good ones and the more difficult ones – only without exaggeration;) – so that the child has a real picture of what may happen to them)
- Try not to generate your fears on your child through messages like: “Now it’s going to start,” “No more lazing,” “Oh my gosh, how can you handle it…?”
- Ensure good contact with teachers and school staff
- Meet the parents of other children in your child’s class
- Initiate meetings of children outside of school
- Tell your child about what such a day at school might look like
(try to answer your child’s questions openly) - Assure your child that there are adults at school who may provide help
- Let your child choose a school trip equipment on their own – utensils, backpack, pencil case
- Make sure your child has their own learning place (away from TV, computer,
with proper lighting, comfortable chair) - If possible, implement a constant rhythm of the day or week adapted to the needs of the child and the whole family (you can use the ready-made family planner, wall or refrigerator calendar with the option of quotation, etc.) so that the child is aware of the time to study, rest, play, additional activities, or trips
- Tell your child about the differences and similarities between school and kindergarten
- Do not burden your child with a number of additional activities, give them time to rest
and play freely after class
