Get ready for kindergarten
Heather Stella
- Reading
- Try one manageable activity at a time, inviting the child to explain their thinking or show another way. Pause when attention fades, and return later rather than turning practice into pressure.
- Themes
- Building foundational skills: Activities address letters, counting, simple calculations, sight words, word families, comparisons and patterns. The book presents these areas as skills to practise through structured activities, rather than exploring them through a story.
- Worth knowing
- Notice which activities feel inviting and which feel effortful. Treat the book as one possible way to practise, while allowing the child’s interests and pace to shape how much is attempted.
