READY FOR SCHOOL CHECKLIST
[
 This
checklist, although not exhaustive, can help to guide you in preparing
your child for school. It’s best to look at the items included as goals
toward which to aim. They should be done, as much as possible, through
everyday life or by fun activities you’ve planned with your child. If
your child lags behind in some areas, do not worry. Remember that all
children are unique. They grow and develop at different rates-and no one
thing guarantees that a child is ready for school. The general checklist
was obtained from the US Department of Education, Office of Educational
Research and Improvement. The third column provides a list of skills that
the local school districts hope each child has developed and/or is working
toward developing prior to entrance to Kindergarten. |
