Summertime is almost over and it is time to start thinking
about going back to school. While you are rushing around buy-ing
new clothes and school supplies, take time to start now pre-paring
your student for the new year. While some children
view the new school year as an exciting adventure, some stu-dents,
as well as parents, look to the new year with dread.
There are always challenges with every new beginning, but
spending some time now can make the transition much easier.
If you have been lax about a schedule this summer, it is not
too early to reinforce bedtime routines. Make sure your child
is reading at least fifteen minutes every day. Practice eye
contact and social skills for those who have difficulty making
friends. It helps to make sure that the child knows how to
play common playground games, and enlist a neighborhood
friend to be a buddy those first days of school. Understand
that your child’s fears are real to
them, and be patient. Start now
reviewing your child’s IEP and
thinking about what you want to
accomplish this year. Request
testing if needed. Check out our
tips for helping your child prepare
for a new school year in this
newsletter, and call OPC if we can
help .
