It’s a new academic term in a new year, 2023, and your child should be ready to face it in a few days. While we count the days, what preparations are you making to ensure a smooth transition back to school after a memorable Christmas celebration?
Remember that transitions like going back to school are a normal part of life, but the changes many children are already experiencing or will experience at the start of the next academic year will be significant. To avoid getting your child struggle with the new school term, it is important to prepare yourself adequately, adjust your schedule as well your child’s routine to better sink into the new term.
When the school starts, make sure you discuss your child’s day with him/her– what he/she learned, the highlights and things he/she found hard. It’s good to encourage a dialogue that can continue throughout his/her time at school, showing him/her that you are interested in what he/she is learning and are there to support.
Prepare lunchboxes and keep them easy, as studies show that pupils who have breakfast function better at school and have more energy. In advance, ask your children about healthy foods that they like to take to school. Have conversation about homework. Children who understand the topics at school properly have more fun at school. Usually, good quality homework is key to understand topics and achieve good grades. Review the environment where your child does his or her homework: Is it quiet enough? Is there enough space? Besides the environment, it is also important to think about activities and internet or TV usage.
