This section of
our website is intended to help you prepare your Pre-Kindergarten child to
enter the Pottsgrove School District Kindergarten Program. Preparing for kindergarten is different for
every child. Your child may be used to
going to school from past preschool experiences, while another child may need
more help with separating. Some children
have naturally picked up skills they will be working on in kindergarten and
other children will need more “teaching” at home to get them ready to
learn. The materials on this page will
help you to instruct your child in the same way as his/her kindergarten
teacher. The best gift you can give your
child is time. Spending time
talking to and with your child will naturally increase your child’s vocabulary
and understanding of language. Talk with
your child about the topics on these pages to give your child the benefit that
conversation provides along with the information he/she needs to prepare him/her for
kindergarten.
