Signs Of A Kindergartener

I found a great site called family education. They had some terrific advice, and tips. The one I found particularly interesting was one on Kindergartener’s. The very first piece of advice was very befitting to my daughter and where she is right now. She only wants to do what she knows she can do, and when she knows how to do it, I am not to go over it again. As was the example in last week’s Fun Friday. She did not want to work on her memory verse because she could not do it perfect. If you have a Kindergartener you may be interested in these tips. And no matter what age your child is, you can find some interesting facts on familyeducation.com

The average five-year-old is enthusiastic, helpful, and conforming. He:

 

Attempts only things he knows he can do.

Has a short attention span.

May show opposite extremes of behavior.

May become less well-behaved as the school year progresses.

Where They’re Going
At five years old, your child is learning to understand herself. You can help by encouraging her as she:

Develops a positive, realistic self-image.

Learns to respect herself.

Begins to understand her own uniqueness.

Gains awareness of her feelings.

Learns to express feelings.

Learns how to participate in groups.

Begins to learn from her mistakes.
