Prep have been preparing for Kindergarten in lots of ways all year.
We have been learning how to line up, how to sit at our desks and on the floor, pack our bags and how to learn, play and be a good friend.
Prep have been learning their names, the alphabet and their sounds, numbers and so much more!
This term we will be spending time in the Kindergarten classes transitioning to ‘Big School’! We are so excited to look at the Kindergarten classrooms and meet some of the teachers.
Here are some things that you as Parents/Guardians can do at home to prepare for Kindergarten:
- Reading Stories with your child
- Learning the alphabet and numbers
- Try to recognise and write their name
- Practise putting on shoes and tying shoelaces
- Practise opening and closing lunchboxes and zippers on bags
- Practise putting on and taking of jumpers or jackets
Here is a helpful article from the NSW Department of Education.
