School is New to Me: A Beginner's Guide to Starting School

By Carla Taylor-Pla

The research-based book, "SCHOOL IS NEW TO ME: A Beginner's Guide to Starting School," is a cutting-edge fun read. Written by a busy, working mother who struggled with her own daughter's transition into preschool, "SCHOOL IS NEW TO ME" packs all the information you need into 26 concise, fact-based pages. Specifically, you will explore effective strategies to: 1) Reduce separation anxiety - Children can take several weeks or months to feel comfortable enough to excel at school. Why wait this long for your child to perform at his/her best? 2) Set clear expectations about school to help children feel more confident. 3) Lay a foundation for literacy and life-long enjoyment of learning. 4) Encourage family discussions about school. Finally -- we have a book that supports busy parents who are short on time, but not short on determination to help their children succeed. Benefiting from the expertise of an Advisory Committee of parents and educators, "SCHOOL IS NEW TO ME: A Beginner's Guide to Starting School," captures what works with real families.
