Build Your Child’s Enthusiasm for School
Children who’ve had more difficulty with the social or academic aspects of school can be reluctant to return to the demands of the educational environment. The antidote to reluctance is to get a toehold on eager anticipation of FUN!
- Help your child stay focused on and excitedly anticipate the people, places and activities he or she enjoys, such as joining a team, seeing a good friend, or getting to wear that new shirt!
- Make plans with your child about the first days of school, guiding her to expect the best outcomes! Talk about all the cool things she’ll learn in her favorite class, who she’ll eat lunch with, and how nice the new teacher will be. The more she focuses on desirable outcomes, the more she will want to head back to school!
