Take the Next Step

In a typical year, many young learners aren’t used to a full day of stimulating in-person learning and activities. Add COVID-19 into the scenario, and families may question if their child is ready to spend a day inside of a classroom. In this webinar, hear from certified intervention specialists about making the transition from home or pre-K to Kindergarten. We’ll cover what you and your child can expect in terms of stamina, environment, activities, safety, and more.

Attendees will walk away with:

Activities to do at home to prepare your child for in-person instruction
Questions to ask your Kindergarten teachers and administrators as the school year approaches
Strategies to build your child’s endurance for the school day
What social expectations your child should expect in the classroom

Hosts

open-quote They have all the resources necessary, specialized to the individual learning of each child, and the heart that goes with it. I don't think we would have stayed in Ohio if it wasn't for JB!
