 Tip one:

The most important thing you can give your child is your attention.

Listen to her stories about school, ask clarifying questions. And remember: what seems

not very important to you, for your son or daughter may turn out to be an event that excites the whole day!

If the child sees your interest in his affairs and concerns, he will definitely feel yours

support By listening to her carefully, you will be able to understand what the baby needs your help with

, what should be discussed with the teacher, what really happens to the child after you say goodbye to him at the school door.

 Friend's advice:

Your positive attitude towards school and teachers will make the adaptation period easier for the child.

Ask any first-grader you know who their teacher is. In response, you will most likely hear that she is the best, the most beautiful, the kindest. For a first-grader, the teacher becomes one of the most important adults in life.

In the first months at school, the teacher covers mom and dad. It is a wise act to support this child's "infatuation" and not be jealous. Cooperate with your child's teachers, offer help, be active. In a class with active parents, it has been observed that closer and better relationships between children, more interesting life, more holidays and trips.

Even if you personally, as a parent, have some questions for the teachers, you think that something should be done differently, all friction should remain between adults. Otherwise, the child will be forced to be torn between love for parents and the authority of the teacher.

Negative or disrespectful statements about the school and teachers "in the family circle" are very harmful, it will significantly complicate the adaptation period for the child, undermine the child's peace and confidence in care and agreement between important adults.

 Tip three:

Your calm attitude towards school concerns and school life will help your child a lot.

Seeing parents calm and confident, the child will feel   that there is simply no need to be afraid of school. One grandmother cried while picking her grandson up for school in the morning. She stroked his head, ran between the briefcase and clothes and wailed: "Where are we letting you go! They won't feed you there all day! How will you be alone there without me!" And so every morning for a month.  They met the boy from school as if he had just returned alive from the war.

The boy's parents noticed that the child began to be "afraid of school." The main work was done with my grandmother.

She was invited to school classes for the whole day, she was present at all lessons, had breakfast with the whole class, went to the school locker room, medical office, gym.

By the way, the boy's pride was not affected by the presence of his grandmother in the classroom. He was promised that he would tell his classmates that this was his grandmother only if he wanted to. After that day, the grandmother realized that the grandson is growing and now the school is on his shoulders. The child's fears also passed very quickly.

 Tip four:

Help the child establish relationships with peers and feel confident.

Your help will be needed especially if the child did not go to school in kindergarten. In this case, she is not used to the fact that the attention of adults is divided between several children at once. Praise the child for his sociability, rejoice aloud at his new school acquaintances. Talk to her about the rules of communication with her peers, help your child become interesting to others. Teach her new games so she can show them to her friends. Invite your child's classmates to your home - a simple tea party, and the little host will learn to receive guests.

You should not "bribe" the attention of your child's schoolmates with expensive toys and clothes. So your child will not learn to be needed by others. Your son or daughter may face the envy of classmates.

Self-confident, sociable kid adapts to any situation faster and more calmly.

 Tip five:

Help the child get used to the new lifestyle.

The child gets used to school not only psychologically, but also physically. Many children in the first grade are faced with the need to get up at the same time in the morning for the first time.

During  3-6 hours of the school day, the child actively studies. At the age of six or seven, such a load is equal to a busy working day of an adult.

With the beginning of schooling, the load on the child's nervous system, spine, vision, and hearing increases dramatically.

If you haven't followed a routine before, try to introduce it gently. Your daughter or son needs regular, long sleep. Help the schoolboy learn to fall asleep at the same time.

Do not force the child to immediately sit down for lessons.

The child needs time to rest. It is also useful for the learning process itself. The brain uses rest time to "put new knowledge on the right shelves." A child, like us, needs a little peace and rest after a working day. Take care of your child's health, because in the first months of schooling, mistakes in the daily routine will be more serious than before.

 Tip six:

A wise attitude of parents to school success will eliminate a third of the child's possible troubles.

Many parents want to be so proud of their children and worry so much about their grades that they turn the child into an addition to the school diary.

School success is certainly important. But it   is not your child's whole life.

School assessment - an indicator of the child's knowledge of a given topic of a given subject at the moment. It has nothing to do with the identity of the child.  Praise the child for his success in school. And remember, no number of "twelves" can be more important than your child's happiness.
