It's exciting. New school supplies. New books. Fresh art on the bulletin board. Clean desks. New friends. New teachers. The beginning of a new school year is special!
It is amazing what can be learned in a school year. There is reading and writing and, of course, math (go MathStart!), but also all the skills that are so essential for learning how to learn. Once a child becomes an accomplished learner, everything is possible.
Learning requires curiosity, but also tenacity because isn't always easy. In fact, one of the most important things a child can learn is how to keep going, to try and try again. Dealing with frustration, taking turns, working cooperatively—these important social and emotional skills are essential not only for success in school, but also in life. The fun of learning is that there is always more to learn and discover! (just ask the children in Miss Cathy's class at Ready Set Pre-K!)
Have a great school year, everybody! You're going to be brilliant!
