Starting school is a very important and significant period in the life of a child and of the whole family. And how the child fits in and adapts to school learning determines not only the rest of his time at school but his life as a whole. It is too early to speak about adaptation yet. Let us stop at the psychological aspects of readiness for school learning
Dear mums and dads! I am offering you a month-long marathon, “Your child is starting school”.
What will there be?
✅ Together we shall look at the various aspects of your child’s readiness. ✅ I shall tell you which skills and abilities need to be developed in your child and how to do it. ✅ I shall carry out an assessment with your child.
???? At the end you will have full information about your child’s psychological readiness to start the first year of school. You will see and understand what to pay attention to in the last few months before school. ???? Ours will be a marathon for children and parents together, because I shall be setting practical tasks and we shall be meeting together with your children.
???? You receive as a gift a month of residency in the “Freud’s Legacy” club (30 days from the moment the marathon is paid for). That means that besides our marathon you will be able to attend all the group meetings at the club, which are run by different counsellors.
I live in the Republic of Belarus and have been working in a school for nine years. Different countries have their own particular features of school education, but the psychological aspects of children’s development are absolutely identical. Parents sometimes think that in order to do well at school a child has to be able to read, write and count. Simple learning actions are often put at the centre, while social, volitional and motivational readiness is forgotten. And if these aspects are not developed enough in a child, all sorts of problems begin: not wanting to go to school, running away from lessons, being unable to sit still, meltdowns and so on.
How long does it last?
Our marathon will last a month and include several meetings on Skype. ????We start in as the group fills up, at a time convenient for you by separate arrangement. The first time we all gather together, the later meetings will take place one to one.
