Charlie’s First Day of Kindergarten 😭❤️

Charlie’s first day of Kindergarten is finally here! 😭🩷 We’re so proud of this sweet girl!

In case the board is hard to read, she loves her family, playing with her brother, and looking at her brother’s cute little face. Also, she wants to be a pizza chef when she grows up!

... Read moreStarting kindergarten marks an important milestone in a child’s life filled with new experiences and challenges. For children like Charlie, whose first day is filled with excitement and emotions, it is essential to provide a supportive environment both at home and at school. Parents can help ease the transition by talking positively about school, encouraging friendships, and celebrating their child's interests and aspirations, such as Charlie’s dream of becoming a pizza chef. Children often thrive when they feel secure and loved, especially when they have strong family bonds like Charlie’s affection for her brother and family. Engaging in activities that foster sibling relationships can reduce anxiety and build social skills. Also, visual aids such as the personal board Charlie has, which highlights her loves and goals, can give children a sense of identity and motivation. Experts recommend maintaining routines and open communication during this phase. It helps children adapt by creating predictability and reassurance. Understanding the importance of play, creativity, and nurturing a child’s dreams can boost confidence and resilience. Moreover, parents and educators should focus on recognizing each child's unique personality and interests. Whether it is a passion for food, art, or sports, encouraging these aspirations can lead to joyful learning experiences and long-term personal development. Charlie’s aspiration to be a pizza chef is a wonderful example of how childhood dreams inspire curiosity and creativity. In summary, celebrating the first day of kindergarten is about more than academics; it is about embracing growth, family love, and individual dreams—all essential elements for a child's happiness and success.

Skills to teach before kindergarten
This is not an exact list and some things (like shoe tying) are to help those less social or extra nervous kiddos out rather than academic based. If you are unsure if your child is ready for kindergarten typically the school or if not lots of places online can provide you with a kindergarten read

School readiness isn’t what you think..
Can I tell you what kindergarten teachers actually say they wish kids came in knowing? It’s not the alphabet. It’s not counting to 20. It’s not how to write their name. It’s: can they ask for help? Can they handle disappointment? Can they use the bathroom by themselves and open their ow

A flat lay shows sound cards with illustrations like a whale for 'wh,' and a sand tray with 'Wh' written in the sand, illustrating a kindergarten reading lesson using the OG approach.
A hand holds an 'OG Lesson Plan' sheet, detailing sections for drills, new phonemes/spelling rules, and dictation, with a note about laying out materials for a 30-minute lesson.
Sound cards, including one with a whale for 'wh,' are displayed next to a sand tray where 'Wh' is written, demonstrating a tactile approach to reviewing sound cards.
