The first day of school is here - time for homework help and a new pencil case

・
April 25, 2024

Summer is short, and all over the country, six-year-olds are excited for the first day of school. The vast majority have probably already started schooling. We suggest what you as a family can do to make the first weeks extra special.The first time in school is filled with impressions, new teachers and future best friends. But also with new rules. All of a sudden you have to wait to speak until you have the floor, you have to learn to sit still and that the food in the school canteen is actually the only one offered.The first day of school is a big day, both for you and your child, and there is a lot you can come up with to make the first time in school extra special.Get a babysitter before school starts via YepstrAnxiety before school startsMost children are a little irritable before school starts. Leaving preschool for six years is big, so butterflies in the stomach are to be expected. But some may feel nervous, anxious, and even anxious about everything new. Sudden stomach cramps or unprovoked outbursts of anger can be a sign that not everything is right. You know your child best, and you probably notice when something is bothering you.This is of course something to be taken seriously. Big children who make noise in the schoolyard and fear of not having enough may come earlier than we may remember. Then we release what we are doing so the child can express what it is that is rubbing.A trick to understand what is worrying is to describe what you think the child feels. Maybe you can say "I see that you are not so happy today, could it be that school starts soon and that it makes you a little irritable in the stomach?". If you score correctly, your child will be relieved to be seen and understood.If your child feels nervous and anxious about the first time in school, you can come up with a solution together. Maybe you can try the way to school or go to school a little earlier and look at the schoolyard and the classroom once again to get used to the environment. You can also talk a little with the teacher or join a friend who you know should start in the same class.Performance anxiety and homework help - this is how I support my child in school

Good books for the first day of school

There are many children's books on the subject on the first day of school. We have listed some real classics:

  • Where is mischief-Alfons by Gunilla Bergström - Alfons Åberg will start school but the days before he becomes completely silent and no longer wants to mischief as usual. Which, of course, made Dad very worried.
  • I also want to go to school by Astrid Lindgren - Five-year-old Lena becomes jealous when her big brother starts school, then she has to go with the first day of school to see how it goes.
  • Sune starts school by Sören Olsson - Sune is going to start school and is actually a little nervous. What should you really pack in your bag, and what happens when you get there?
  • Ettagluttare - A collection of short stories by Sweden's most read children's book author about what it's like to start school.

There is no requirement to be able to read, write and count before school starts. Only the ability to sit in their place and listen[/caption]There are no requirements for arithmetic, reading or writing skills before starting school. On the other hand, you have to learn that during the lessons you only speak when you get the floor and that it is important to listen in order to be able to learn something.Find, book and pay homework help by the hour - safely easy and neat

Good to know for you as a parent

Most children do very well in schooling, albeit at different rates. The days will be short at first, which is good. With all the new impressions, it is good that the kids can rest up properly between laps. The first time will be to get to know your new classmates, get routines and learn what rules apply.It's good to ask who your concern is really about - yours or your child's. It may be that your own thoughts and experiences are haunting, in which case questions and assurances create unnecessary anxiety for your child. If you have any questions, ask the teachers or leisure educators directly - do not go around and linger. The dialogue with the staff must be continuous for everyone's sake.Another thing that is good to start early in the semester is to find a cruel baby sitter which can be picked up after the school day. Via Yepstr, you can find young people between 15-24 who live nearby who like to work extra as a babysitter with you. When your child also gets homework, and maybe needs to start studying for national exams or needs math help, you can find homework help via Yepstr. Maybe it's the same person as your babysitter, or some other cruel youth in the neighborhood. Find, interview, book and pay via Yepstr and the assignments will be both white and insured.Read more here, here or here.[caption id="attachment_1228" align="alignnone" width="1951"]

Fun to do before school starts

  • Shopping trip - If your child is interested, it always feels special to come along to acquire a brand new school bag and a nice pencil case. Maybe you can also treat yourself to a new fun t-shirt or new sneakers for the first day of school.
  • Pack the school bag - Pack together with your child. Make sure the new pencil case comes with and maybe a warm sweater and a fruit.
  • Choosing clothes - Again, if your child thinks it's fun, it can feel a little solemn to choose what you want to wear on that first day of school.
  • Luxury for it afterwards - In the beginning, the new students do not go all school days, then it may be appropriate to have the luxury of it but a pizza lunch, an ice cream or the child's favorite dish for dinner.
