What you'll learn
Five things teachers notice in the first week that most parents are never told, each with something simple to try at home.
- Why the children who settle fastest are rarely the ones who can write their name, and the skill that matters more.
- Why lunchtime, not the classroom, is the hardest part of the day for many new starters.
- The three short sentences that can change a child's whole first term.
- Why so many children fall apart after school in the first weeks, and what helps.
- The one page teachers wish every family handed them before day one.
