Health Essentials

Focus: Keeping your preschooler healthy and safe.

Health Essentials is a set of CDC-based standard operating procedures that can help mitigate the spread of potential infection throughout our Academy. Health Essentials is a key part of our overall COVID-19 response, expanding upon existing disinfection and health protocols that offer parents and staff peace of mind and demonstrates our commitment to creating a healthy and safe environment for learning and working.

Health Essentials guidelines are focused on four principles designed to cover various preventative, protective and corrective measures that address COVID-19:

1. Wellness Education

The solution starts with an understanding.

  • Children learn how following proper hygienic practices can keep them healthy
  • Academy staff receives training and must abide by enhanced health and safety practices outlined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

2. Enhanced Hygiene

Soap and water is the best solution.

  • Soap and water offer the simplest solution to combat infection
  • Staff increase handwashing frequency
  • All children must wash their hands upon entering their room at the start of each day and all recommended times thereafter in addition to following standard Academy handwashing procedures

3. Healthy Environment

A clean facility keeps families safe.

Academies adhere to advanced cleaning procedures:

  • Nightly cleaning
  • Daily laundering of soft items and bedding
  • Limiting items brought into the Academy

4. Symptom Monitoring

Keeping a watchful eye

  • Temperature monitoring at the Academy entrance.
  • Track symptoms using AcademyLink®
  • Isolate symptomatic children from others immediately upon observation
  • Contact parents for pickup from the Academy
  • Daily health check is completed upon arrival

How Life Essentials is different

Questions? Answers.

Explore some of the most frequently asked questions from parents of 3-year-olds.



Q.
What if my child gets sick?


A.
We’ll call you or a designated adult from your Emergency Information Form so that your child can be picked up as soon as possible from the Academy. While waiting to be picked up, your child will rest quietly, away from other children.


Q.
What policies are Academies required to have in place to address safety?


A.
Our facilities and outdoor play areas are required to have secure entries and exits that are maintained by an electronic entry system. Only individuals authorized by you are allowed to pick up your child from the Academy. All employees are required to have undergone background checks prior to employment.


Q.
Do I need to pack a lunch?


A.
No. We provide an assortment of healthy, age-appropriate meals and snacks for the children to eat each day.


Q.
What if my child has allergies?


A.
Due to the high number of children with peanut allergies, we do not serve peanut products. If your child has a specific allergy, please list them on our dietary restriction letter so that we can make appropriate food substitutions.


Q.
What are teacher qualifications?


A.
All Kiddie Academy teachers must meet or exceed the state requirements for child care providers and are required to receive ongoing professional training annually. We also require background checks through local, county, state and/or federal agencies prior to employment.


Q.
What is your discipline policy?


A.
We do not use physical or verbal punishment under any circumstances. We use positive guidance and re-direction to acknowledge children’s feelings and emotions and provide them with social scripts, problem-solving techniques, self-calming activities and choices and activities geared toward their interests.


Q.
What will my child be doing?


A.
At this age, children are naturally inquisitive and take pride in doing things on their own. Our teachers encourage your preschooler to take advantage of our center-based learning environment to explore and progress at their own pace. Your child will work on social/emotional development, motor skills and will be introduced to language arts, mathematics and science.


Q.
Can I drop in to observe?


A.
Due to the concerns around COVID-19, we are unable to allow drop-in observation by parents or family members. We hope to reverse this rule as soon as it becomes safe.


Q.
Do you have parent-teacher conferences?


A.
Yes. We schedule family/teacher conferences each year to discuss your child’s progress, but you can request a conference with the Director at any time.


Q.
Do you take the children outdoors?


A.
Yes, weather permitting, we take children outside daily. Children should be dressed appropriately for playing on our playground or taking group walks.


Q.
How do you use technology in learning?


A.
Kiddie Academy teachers use technology as learning tools and a means of communication. We feel it’s important to teach children how to use devices they will encounter in school, so they are given opportunities to use them for educational play and research. The use of televisions or computers for passive viewing is not part of Kiddie Academy’s curriculum.


Q.
Does you have cameras in the classroom?


A.
Many, but not all, Kiddie Academy locations have classroom cameras that parents can access via mobile or desktop apps. For the most accurate information on classroom cameras, contact your Academy directly to learn about camera availability and policies.


Q.
What is Kiddie Academy doing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus?


A.
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Kiddie Academy already followed strict practices for health and cleaning that met or exceeded state and local standards. Since the coronavirus outbreak, we have implemented Health Essentials, a set of enhanced protocols based on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations for social distancing, disinfection, wellness education and symptom monitoring. The goal of Health Essentials is to uphold the highest level of health precautions and cleanliness for proper child care delivery.

Early Learning | dcps

Washington, DC has a long history as a leader in providing early childhood education (ECE) and leads the nation in access to Pre-K for both 3- and 4-year old children. Access to high-quality, affordable childcare is a critical need for families across the District, and DCPS is proud to provide free, universal Pre-K in a school environment to ensure all of our young learners are ready for kindergarten. Many of the very best Pre-K classrooms in the region can be found in DCPS!

2022 Pre-K Family Toolkit

This toolkit is designed to support returning and new DCPS Pre-K families. It includes information about the Pre-K classroom experience, key dates, helpful links, answers to frequently asked questions, and ideas for supporting Pre-K children’s learning over the summer as they transition into school.

View Spanish & English toolkits here.

Pre-K Enrollment

To enroll new 3- and 4-year-olds in school, families must apply through the My School DC lottery. Families may enroll children in PK3 if the child is at least 3 years old and in PK4 if the child is at least 4 years old, respectively, by September 30. The DCPS Early Action Pre-Kindergarten program provides guaranteed access for in-boundary students applying to Pre-K at participating schools. Learn more here.

Head Start

DCPS offers Head Start at six of our elementary schools in Wards 7 and 8 – CW Harris, Hendley, Kimball, King, Savoy and Stanton.  Families who are enrolled in PK at these schools are also eligible for Head Start services if they qualify.  Families must be income eligible (at or below 100% of the federal poverty guidelines), on TANF or SSI, in foster care or homeless.  Head Start services include intensive case management/support, mental health services, field trips, health services, parent education and support. Review DCPS’ Head Start Annual Report for School Year 2021-2022.

Equitable Access Designated Seats

The Equitable Access Designated Seats program is designed to expand access to Prekindergarten seats at DC Public Schools for students furthest from opportunity. Families who meet the criteria will receive additional considerations in the school lottery process when applying for certain schools. Learn more about this program and how to apply.

ECE Fast Facts

  • DCPS enrolls over 6,000 Pre-K3 and Pre-K4 students across all elementary schools.
  • DCPS enrolls 250 Pre-K3 and Pre-K4 students in Head Start.
  • More than 92 percent of early childhood students at DCPS are meeting or exceeding developmental expectations.
  • DCPS supports 63 Pre-K self-contained special education classrooms to meet the needs of all children’s developmental and learning differences.
  • Children who enroll in DCPS Pre-K programs outperform national literacy averages upon kindergarten entry.
  • DCPS is among the few jurisdictions that require our Pre-K teachers to have at least a bachelor’s degree, and many of our teachers exceed that minimum requirement. We are also among the few that pay our Pre-K teachers on the same salary scale as our K-12 educators and provide ongoing professional development for all teachers.
  • DCPS utilizes rigorous monthly data reviews and progress monitoring systems to identify bright spots and corrective actions or supports needed at specific schools. We will continue intensive supports in this area to ensure our commitment to our youngest learners is evident.
  • Washington, DC invested over $100 million to expand early childhood education opportunities – including opening the Stevens Early Learning Center in August 2020; renovating the Old Randle Highlands and Old Miner school buildings; as well as, new programming at Bunker Hill, Drew, King, Moten, and Wheatley – to offer more infant and toddler seats in the coming years. In August 2021, DCPS opened the Military Road Early Learning Center in the historic Brightwood neighborhood. The center exclusively serves PK3 and PK4 children.

Program Overview

At DCPS we believe that all young children are capable and competent learners, and their voices and ideas are welcomed and valued in our classrooms. In DCPS’ early childhood classrooms children learn through a combination of play, teacher-led lessons, and engaging learning experiences. Classrooms are designed to promote children’s active engagement with the environment, and teachers design learning experiences to promote children’s language development, critical thinking skills, creativity, and early academic skills in order to ensure that children are well prepared for success in kindergarten and beyond.

Curriculum & Assessment

DCPS PreK classrooms utilize Creative Curriculum which includes developmentally appropriate goals and objectives for children within four areas of development: social/emotional, physical, cognitive and language and are aligned to the DC Early Learning Standards.

Using the curriculum as a framework, teachers follow the lead of the children and pursue the questions and investigations within each study that are most interesting to the children in their classroom.  In addition to teacher planned learning experiences, everyday children engage in purposeful play, supporting relationship building, problem-solving, and critical thinking. 

Throughout the day, teachers are observing children and gathering information about their skills and understandings to guide their planning.  These observations, along with children’s work, are documented in our assessment platform Teaching Strategies GOLD.  Three times a year, using the information captured in GOLD, teachers determine where each child is in their development in a variety of objectives or standards and share the information with families.  

For Families

At DCPS we know that families are children’s first and most important teachers. Family engagement and well-being are essential to children’s success in school.

All Pre-K children have access to mental health support and social work services offered through the school community. Families can also receive support through case management, family engagement opportunities, and connections with community-based organizations to provide additional support.

Do you have a toddler or two-year-old? Join Ready for Pre-K! This exciting new initiative is dedicated to helping parents and caregivers of two-year-olds support their child’s development and learning at home! Each monthly, virtual learning session will focus on a different area of learning that is closely related to children’s success in Pre-Kindergarten and beyond. Gain insight into your child’s development, ask questions, access a variety of educational resources, and get to know DCPS! Learn more here!

Early Childhood Transition Week

DCPS Pre-K3 and Pre-K4 classrooms operate on the regular school system calendar, except for Early Childhood Transition Week. This special transition period occurs during the first week of the school year. To help ease the transition from home or daycare to school, Pre-K3 and Pre-K4 start with a shortened week. The first day of Pre-K for SY 22-23 21-22 is Thursday, September 1, 2022.

Before Care and Afterschool Services

Many schools offer before care and afterschool services. Children enrolled in afterschool programming receive a free supper as part of the program. Program costs are determined based on a sliding-fee scale. Visit our Afterschool Programs page for more information.

3-K for All brings free, full-day, high-quality education to three-year-old children in New York City— learn more about the benefits of 3-K

Your 3-K Choices

Use MySchools to search for and learn about 3-K programs. During the application period, you can also use MySchools to add programs to your child’s application and submit it.

  • There are four different 3-K program settings.
  • A specific program may offer up to three seat types, which differ in hours and eligibility requirements. When applying to that program in MySchools, be sure to add the seat type(s) you want and are eligible for to your child’s application.

3-K Program Settings

There are four types of settings for 3-K programs. You can choose to apply to programs in one setting or across two, three, or all four settings. Each setting offers the same DOE high-quality, play-based curriculum to New York City’s three-year-old children:

  • NYC Early Education Centers (NYCEECs). These are community-based organizations with early childhood expertise. They partner with the DOE to provide 3-K programs.
    • Consider NYC Early Education Centers if your child currently attends the center, has a sibling also attending the program, or your family receives social services from the organization that runs the center.
    • Some NYC Early Education Centers also offer up to 10 hours of 3-K programming, all year round for families that qualify: see the Enrollment for Extended Day and Year Seats and Head Start Seats section of this page to find out more about whether your family may be eligible.
  • District Schools. Some DOE public elementary schools offer 3-K programs. Consider this option if your child has an older sibling already attending the school, or you want your child to attend a program in an elementary school setting.
  • Pre-K Centers. Pre-K Centers are run by DOE staff and only offer grades before kindergarten. Consider Pre-K Centers if you want your child to attend a 3-K program with only young children. These are DOE early childhood centers that only offer grades below kindergarten.
  • Family Child Care (Home-Based Programs). Home-based programs, also known as family child care programs, offer 3-K in a home setting by a licensed, qualified, child care provider.
    • In this setting, 3-K children are served in mixed-age groups with other children from birth to three years old.
    • These programs are consistent with 3-K programs offered in center-based and district school settings, and are overseen by the Department of Education and a Family Child Care Network organization that provides instructional resources, coaching, and family support.
    • Families may choose to enroll their children in home-based early childhood programs because of their many unique strengths:
      • Children can form strong relationships with caregivers by continuing in the same program from six weeks to three years old.
      • Children can interact with other children, including siblings, in a mixed-age setting.
      • Children can begin their early education in a familiar setting before transitioning to center- or school-based pre-K, if that is the family’s preference.
      • Families can have access to programs that offer longer days and years to meet the needs of work or school schedules.
      • Families can find programs that are conveniently located close to home, work, or school.
      • Families may find that home-based programs best reflect the language and culture of their community.
      • Like center- and school-based programs, home-based 3-K programs help children learn, grow, and explore the world around them. Home-based programs use DOE-approved curriculum, and the providers receive professional learning and coaching to support quality play-based instruction.

3-K Seat Types

There are three 3-K seat types: Full Day, Extended Day and Year, and Head Start. A 3-K program may offer one, two, or all three of these seat types. You can learn which programs offer which seat types in MySchools. Different seat types have different eligibilities, so check to make sure you are applying to the seat type(s) you want and are likely eligible for.

  • Full Day seats are open to all NYC children born in 2019. These seats are free and provide early care and education for 6 hours and 20 minutes per day during the school year, typically from September to June.
  • Extended Day and Year seats are free or low cost and provide care for up to 10 hours of early care and education a day, year-round, including the summer. Eligibility for these seats is based on family income and needs. If you receive an offer to an Extended Day and Year seat, you will need to confirm your child’s eligibility by completing a Child Care application.
  • Head Start seats are free and provide 10 hours of early care and education a day, year-round. Eligibility for Head Start is based on family income and needs. If you receive an offer to a Head Start seat, the program will work with you to confirm your child’s eligibility.

Visit Programs’ Websites and Attend Open Houses

We encourage you to visit programs’ websites or contact programs directly to learn more about them and find out if they are hosting any virtual or in-person open houses or information sessions, or if they have other resources to share with prospective families.

Visiting a 3-K program is a great way to explore if it may be the right place for your child. Virtual tours also provide a way to imagine what attending that program would be like.

When visiting a 3-K program virtually or in person, consider asking staff members questions about the program, such as:

  • How will the teachers learn about my child’s interests, strengths, and needs?
  • How will your program help children get to know the teachers and the other staff?
  • How would you describe the community of teachers and families here?
  • How do teachers work with families?
  • How do teachers guide children’s behavior?
  • How will staff members make sure my child feels safe and cared for?
  • What are your program’s strengths? What are you working on improving?
  • How do teachers support children who speak a language other than English at home?

  2. By phone at 718-935-2009. Interpretation services are available in more than 200 languages for over-the-phone applications. You can ask questions and request information about admissions in any language when you call.

Families Applying to 3-K for More than One Child

If you are applying to 3-K for more than one child and want your children to attend the same program, you can apply for all children at the same time. First, create your MySchools account. Then add all your children to your MySchools dashboard. After all children have been added to the dashboard, make sure to list which children are multiples (such as twins or triplets) when submitting your application.

Tip: 3-K admissions is not first come, first served! You can make changes to your application any time before the deadline. All applications submitted by this date are treated the same based on admissions priorities.

Need Care Now?

Some 3-K programs can enroll children at any time throughout the year, if their family is eligible based on income and needs. See the Enrollment for 3-K Extended Day and Year Seats and Head Start Seats section of this page to learn more.

If you have questions about 3-K admissions, email [email protected] .

Get Your 3-K Results

Families that submit an application by the deadline receive a 3-K results letter in the late spring. This letter may include an offer and will tell you where your child is waitlisted, if applicable. Due to limited seat availability, we may not be able to make offers to all applicants.

Accept Your Offer

  • If your child gets a 3-K offer, secure your child’s seat by accepting your 3-K offer by the deadline provided in your offer letter. The program will work with you to register your child.
  • Be sure to accept your offer even if you are hoping for a waitlist offer from another program.

Waitlists

A 3-K program has a waitlist when there are more students that apply to it than 3-K seats available.

  • If we are unable to make your child an offer, they will be placed automatically on the waitlist of each program you listed on their application.
  • If your child receives an offer to a program that was not your first choice, they will be automatically placed on the waitlist for any program(s) that you listed higher on your 3-K application than their offer program.
  • If your child receives an offer to your first-choice program, they will not be placed on any waitlists.

Programs will contact you directly if they are able to offer your child a seat from the waitlist.

Students Who Move During the Admissions Process

If your family moves during the admissions process, call 718-935-2009 or contact a Family Welcome Center to update your information and talk about changes to your 3-K application or program. Your child’s priority to attend certain programs may change if you move.

Enrollment for 3-K Extended Day and Year Seats, and for 3-K Head Start Seats

Who is Eligible?

In all school districts, some 3-K seats are available to families who qualify based on their income and needs.

  • Extended Day and Year seats are free or low cost and offer early care and education all year round for up to 10 hours a day.
  • Head Start seats are free and offer early care and education all year round for up to 10 hours a day.
  • If your family qualifies for either of these seat types, you can enroll your child at any time throughout the year.

These seats are offered in NYC Early Education Centers and family child care networks and may also serve infants, toddlers, and four-year-olds. To learn more, visit our Child Care Eligibility and Pre-K pages. 

Head Start Seats

The best way to find out if your family is eligible for Head Start is to contact a program directly. Your family may qualify for Head Start if at least one of these categories applies to you:

  • You live in temporary housing
  • You receive HRA Cash Assistance
  • You receive SSI (Supplemental Security Insurance)
  • You are enrolling a child who is in foster care
  • Your family income falls below a certain amount

3-K Extended Day and Year Seats

Your family may qualify for other 3-K Extended-Day and Year seats if your family’s income falls below a certain amount AND you have at least one of the following approved “reasons for care”:

  • You work an average of 10 or more hours per week
  • You are in an educational or vocational training program
  • You have been looking for work for up to 6 months
  • You live in temporary housing
  • You are attending services for domestic violence

These 3-K Extended Day and Year seats are funded by the Federal Child Care and Development Block Grant. Because of the requirements of this Federal funding, you must provide proof that your child is a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or lawful permanent resident or refugee to be eligible for these particular programs. Documentation is only needed for the child in need of child care; you will not be asked for the immigration status of anyone else in your household, including your status. Documentation for the child in need of care can be one of the following: a U.S. birth certificate, U.S. passport, naturalization certificate, alien registration card (including permanent resident or green card), or Form FS-240 (report of birth abroad of a U.S. citizen).

The DOE is committed to welcoming all children and families, regardless of citizenship or immigration status, into our schools and programs. Families do not need to provide proof of citizenship or immigration status to be admitted to any Full Day, Head Start, or Early Head Start seat at DOE programs. If your family is unable to meet the Extended Day and Year seat documentation requirements listed above, the DOE will help you explore any available program alternatives that meet the needs of your family.

How to Enroll Mid-Year

Programs with Extended Day and Year seats and/or Head Start seats can enroll eligible children at any time throughout the year.

  • Visit MySchools to find a program near you. Seat types will be listed as options to add to your application. Filter for these options by clicking the “More Filters” tab and selecting the seat type(s) you want.
  • For Head Start seats, enroll directly through program.
  • For other Extended Day and Year seats, contact us at [email protected].

Special Referrals

There are a few instances where a different process is needed to apply:

  • Families applying for or receiving cash assistance must apply for care at their Human Resources Administration (HRA) Job Center.
  • Families with an active Child Welfare case, preventive and/or protective, must contact their case worker to make a Child Care subsidy referral.
  • Employed foster parents must contact their case worker to make a Child Care subsidy referral.

All families, including families that may need one of these referrals, can call 311 to get help with finding a program and completing the Child Care subsidy application.

Plan for Next Year: Pre-K Admissions

Pre-K for All helps ensure that all children have a strong start in school and life!

Start thinking about pre-K programs when your child is enrolled in 3-K or another three-year-old preschool program, or when they are three years old. In New York City, children are eligible to apply to pre-K in the calendar year they turn four. Every child in NYC whose family submits a pre-K application is guaranteed a pre-K offer.

  • Students enrolled in certain 3-K or three-year-old programs may have priority to attend pre-K at the same center or school. Learn more on the Pre-K page.
  • If your child is currently in Early Intervention, to learn more about your preschool options by visiting the Moving to Preschool page.

Michigan preschool pilot for 3-year-olds could end

Students in a Strong Beginnings classroom sing and dance at Growing Minds Learning Center in Detroit. Strong Beginnings is a pilot preschool program for 3-year-old children from low income families.

Erin Kirkland for Chalkbeat

For two years, a dozen classrooms across Michigan have experimented with a new idea for the state’s early education system: Public preschool for 3-year-olds.

State officials launched the pilot program, called Strong Beginnings, with support from a federal grant, on the premise that high-quality education has profound benefits for all young learners — not just those who are a year away from kindergarten.

But the federal funds are about to expire. And even as Michigan’s state revenues reach record highs, state officials appear poised to let the program end.

That’s a missed opportunity to expand on the success of Michigan’s existing program for 4-year-olds, officials say. Studies show that children’s experience during the developmental window between toddler age and kindergarten, a period that begins at age 3, is critical to their success in school.

“We know that two years of quality preschool has better effects on kindergarten readiness and longer-term academic outcomes in the early elementary years and beyond,” said Richard Lower, director of the Office of Preschool and Out-of-School Time Learning at the Michigan Department of Education. 

Michigan’s state-funded preschool, the Great Start Readiness Program, is regularly ranked among the highest-quality in the country, but it only serves 4-year-olds.

“The state has done a great job with 4-year-olds, but our 3-year-olds have been missed as part of that equation,” said Yvonne Donohoe, director of early childhood services for Northwest Education Services, a county education agency formerly known as Traverse Bay Area Intermediate School District. Programs for 3-year-olds “are filled to the brim, and with waiting lists.”

Michigan’s program for 4-year-olds was founded in 1985 with fewer than 700 children and expanded steadily for decades. State officials see Strong Beginnings as a first step on a similar pathway to a robust statewide preschool system for 3-year-olds at risk of low educational attainment. 

But with its federal grant expiring, the program is at risk of stalling unless the state steps in with additional funds. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s education budget doesn’t include funds for the pilot. Neither does the current House budget plan.

The Senate’s budget plan includes a placeholder item indicating that some senators want to discuss keeping the 12 classrooms open.

“It is my hope that we can continue Strong Beginnings and offer this programming to more children across Michigan,” said Sen. Wayne Schmidt, R-Traverse City, in a statement. The Strong Beginnings pilot opened classrooms in his district.

Bobby Leddy, a spokesman for Whitmer, said she is “open to discussing options to expand early childhood education programs even further to younger Michiganders and continue making bold investments to support families, put children on a path to success and ultimately strengthen Michigan’s economy.

Children are eligible for Strong Beginnings or GSRP based on their family’s income and a range of other factors including behavioral challenges.

A handful of cities and states with large public preschool programs, such as New Jersey, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., offer services to 3-year-olds, but that is not the norm nationwide. As of 2019, most states offered public preschool to fewer than 5% of their 3-year-olds. Michigan was among the 19 states that served only 4-year-olds.

Officials in the Michigan Department of Education began developing a preschool model for 3-year-olds in 2017. The department secured enough federal grant money to open the first 10 classrooms beginning in 2020, and added two more the next year. (The grant funds were not pandemic-related.)

The program would mirror GSRP in many ways, including in its requirements for high-quality curriculum and staff credentialing, but it needed to be tweaked for younger children, who have fewer social-emotional skills and often are still learning to use a toilet.

Child care providers in Michigan often struggle to meet the demand from families with younger children, because they are more expensive to care for and there are fewer state resources to support their care.

“I get more calls for 3-year-olds than for 4-year-olds,” said Priscilla Darby, assistant director at Growing Minds Learning Center on the east side of Detroit, one of the providers selected to participate in Strong Beginnings.

On a recent Tuesday in one of the classrooms at Growing Minds, 3-year-olds wriggled on cots as the smells of Taco Tuesday lingered in the room. The classroom looked similar to those serving 4-year-olds in the same building, but with fewer — and smaller — children. They’d just come in from playing outside. Nap time would come after lunch. Some children drew on pads of paper or offered hugs to a handful of adult visitors to the classroom.

Statewide, the 12 classrooms in Strong Beginnings serve fewer than 200 students, a small fraction of GSRP, which served 28,000 students last year. And scaling it up would be expensive.

Based on the results of the pilot, Lower said Strong Beginnings is estimated to cost $13,500 per pupil. That’s far more than the $8,700 minimum funding level for GSRP and K-12 schools, though it’s roughly in line with what such programs typically cost to run. High-quality public preschool costs around $12,700 per pupil, according to a 2021 report from the RAND Corporation.

Strong Beginnings requires more adults per child, which boosts the cost of the program. The GSRP adult-to-child ratio is 1 to 8, versus the Strong Beginnings ratio of 1 to 7.

Plus, Strong Beginnings requires programs to hire a full-time social worker to connect families with the support they need. 

For now, state officials are focused on expanding GSRP to more 4-year-olds, and recently dedicated substantial additional funds to that cause.

Peculiarities of the educational process

It’s no secret that from an early age a child needs maximum attention for the full development of his mental and creative abilities. Unfortunately, in the modern rhythm of life, parents cannot always devote enough time to their children, and many do not always cope with them, because they are used to perceiving parents as parents, and not teachers and educators. Preparing for school in the educational center “In the Land of Knowledge” will help you cope with these difficulties, and most importantly, it will give your child the necessary knowledge and teach you to study with interest!

Pre-school education in our center is:

1 –

Mini groups

All classes are held in groups of up to 8 people. This optimal number of students allows you to assimilate new material as successfully as possible and consolidate the knowledge already acquired, and the game method will make learning easy and interesting. Children reach out for each other, compete, learn to communicate in a team. A children’s mini-team is psychologically better prepared for school than individual classes, while the quality of education is not lost.

2 –

Highly qualified specialists

All classes are conducted by psychologists, teachers of elementary grades and methodologists of the profile level, who are responsible for their work and love it.

3 –

The latest developments in pedagogy

We are professionals in our field. Our teaching staff follows all trends in the field of education, constantly improving their abilities and expanding their knowledge, which allows us to guarantee the most effective education for your child.

4 –

Comprehensive approach, using different methodologies

We never limit ourselves to one direction in pedagogy. Every child is unique and needs to be approached differently. The use of method synthesis makes education flexible and efficient.

5 –

Person-centered approach

Student-centered education is such education, where the child’s personality, its originality, self-worth are put at the forefront, the subjective experience of each is first revealed, and then coordinated with the content of education. Classes in mini-groups allow you to devote as much time to each child as it takes for him to assimilate knowledge.

6 –

Optimal study time

1 lesson – 30 minutes – this is the maximum time recommended by pedagogy for preschool children (4-6 years old). The fact is that it is difficult to keep the attention of the child for more than 15 minutes, after which he needs to change the type of activity. We adhere to these recommendations for the successful assimilation of educational material by your child without overload and psycho-emotional stress.

The educational center “In the Land of Knowledge” is always in touch with its students and their parents.
We rejoice in your success as if it were our own.
Educational center “In the Land of Knowledge” – quality education at an affordable price!

Reviews

We have been going here relatively recently, maybe a month, but I like it because there are a lot of interesting activities, manuals and games. I also really like the openness of classes – I sit nearby and see how they are taught, then I can repeat something with my son at home. In general, conscientious teachers, cozy and clean classrooms. I hope it will continue like this

UK Early Childhood Education, British Curriculum | CIS

World of CISArticles Features of the British preschool system

December 23, 2020

It is difficult to overestimate the importance of such a decision as choosing a kindergarten, because it is in a preschool institution that the foundations for further education are laid and personal qualities are formed. Sending a child to the British kindergarten CIS International School means laying the foundation for his future education.

In order to be convinced of the correctness of this statement, it is necessary to understand how preschool education is built for children in the UK and how it differs from Russian.

Early childhood education in the UK

The British are a nation that is extremely careful about its history and traditions. This approach is also characteristic of English education, which successfully combines modern developmental methods and all the best that has been accumulated for centuries by teachers and educators in schools of different levels.

Decent resources have also been accumulated in the field of teaching preschool children, which in England traditionally begins at the age of 2-3. Although this stage in education is not compulsory, most parents prefer to send their children to preschool institutions at this age, and at the age of five, young Britons become schoolchildren.

In the UK, there are various types of preschool institutions with different operating modes, differing in sources of funding, goals and content of educational programs, a contingent of pupils – for any preferences and financial possibilities (game groups, family centers, libraries of books and toys, mother and child clubs, religious churches, etc.).

British Three to Five Education

This aspect is regulated at the state level: the government program provides free pre-school education for children from the age of three. Each young citizen of foggy Albion is entitled to 38 weeks of training per year for 15 hours a week.

To ensure this right, parents receive vouchers from the state for the maintenance of the child in kindergarten. At the same time, each family can dispose of them at its own discretion, using either as a full payment for the stay in a state preschool institution, or as material assistance from the state to pay for a more expensive private or commercial kindergarten.

It is important to note that all institutions participating in the program are required to adhere to uniform programs and methods from the British Ministry of Education – but they are not deprived of the opportunity to make their own changes to the main program, allowing students to focus on certain classes (for example, learning several languages).

Important differences between Russian and British kindergarten

In the domestic tradition, a kindergarten is just a place where children spend time while their parents are busy at work (one might say, an alternative to staying at home with their grandmother – and, as is often believed, not the best). The main requirement for a Russian preschool institution is to provide good nutrition and a proper regimen, which includes entertainment, games, useful activities, mandatory daytime sleep and a walk in the fresh air.

In the English garden for children, the main thing is the learning process, so it is carried out not only at specially allotted time, but constantly.

Pre-school education regulated by the state program in Britain should provide by the time of entering the school:

  • personal and emotional development of the child;
  • his social skills, ability to communicate;
  • knowledge of the language, literacy;
  • development of mathematical abilities;
  • general ideas about nature and society;
  • physical and aesthetic education.

Speaking about British preschool institutions in Russia, it is important to note that in parallel with the general development, pupils learn English, and high learning efficiency is guaranteed by complete immersion in the language environment.

How to choose an English kindergarten in Russia

According to physiologists and psychologists, a child is completely open to learning from the age of three – literally ready to “absorb knowledge like a sponge.” Parents who understand this and do not want to lose the most favorable years for learning choose the British method of preschool education, which effectively uses the natural abilities of babies.

Of course, when choosing a kindergarten, absolutely everything is important. This is the infrastructure (after all, the child spends the whole day in the institution), and the correct organization of the rest and nutrition regimen, and the teaching staff.

If you are specifically interested in the British program for children of primary preschool age, it is fundamentally important that the British work in the kindergarten – not English-speaking Americans, Canadians or, say, Filipinos, but experts from the UK.

This solution is offered by CIS International School, an international school that provides British education in English with native speakers in different regions (campuses in St. Petersburg, Moscow and Tashkent).

The main educational program of preschool education for the new academic year.

Finished sample

By the new academic year, all kindergartens must approve the main educational program. This is a mandatory document along with the annual work plan and development program.

When you analyze your main educational program, do not forget to update it – add a part on working with young children to the program, prescribe work on new forms of interaction with parents, reflect the introduction of digital technologies. So that there are no claims from the inspectors, pay attention to the mistakes that kindergartens often make when developing a program. We offer five checkpoints to check whether the OOP DO is written and finalized correctly.

Take into account the new annual tasks of the kindergarten in order to update the BEP

In order for the educational program in kindergarten not to be a static document that does not change anything in the educational process, it must be updated and specified every year. To do this, it is necessary to take into account the tasks that the state sets for the kindergarten.

Important

In the PLO, rely on government objectives, this will serve as an argument in a conversation with the founder about funding the logistics for the program.

Kindergartens face new challenges in the 2019/20 school year. Take them into account in the PLO: add new parts on working with young children, reflect how you will introduce digital technologies into the educational process and new forms of working with children. These are the requirements of the President (Decree of the President of 07.05.2018). Another step to update the program is to analyze the results of its implementation last year and make adjustments to it.

Add a part on working with young children in the program

The state obliges kindergartens to open groups for children under three years of age as part of the Education project. Check if all the necessary sections for working with young children are in your educational program. For example, now in your kindergarten there is a group for children aged 2 to 3 years, and there is a section in the OOP on the work of this group. But in September you plan to open a group for children from 1.5 to 2 years old. In this case, the section of the program for working with young children must be updated. Write in it how the educational process will be organized in new groups.

Write down work on new forms of interaction with parents

New effective forms of work with children and their parents appear every year. This year, the “Family Club” uniform has proven itself well. Within its framework, educators can interact with children and their families at the same time, and families get to know each other. The “Family Club” involves parents in the educational process and makes it easier for educators to work in groups, because children are present in the group with their parents. Write a program for working in new forms in the OOP.

Information

To make changes to the OOP DO, you do not need the permission of the founder. The kindergarten independently develops, approves the educational program and corrects educational tasks

Reflect the introduction of digital technologies

The Ministry of Education requires the introduction of digital resources and e-education technologies into the educational process. Write down these changes in the content section of the OOP. Justify why it is necessary to introduce digital technologies into the educational process in the target section. For example, because a modern child has been surrounded by technology since childhood, it is close and understandable to him, the educational process using digital technologies will be more productive.

Siberian regional school (college) of Anna Muratova offers electronic lessons for preschoolers, electronic lessons in foreign languages, video fairy tales, lessons in mental arithmetic, calligraphy, speed reading, chess, robotics, electronic educational magazine “ElectronicUM”.

In the organizational section of the PEP, describe the logistics of the introduction of e-education. This section will be important when talking with the founder about the financing of digital resources: the purchase of computers, interactive devices, computer software.

Make adjustments to the BEP based on the results of its implementation last year

To update the educational program, it is necessary to take into account the experience of its implementation over the past year. You can make a cut for several past years, but this will require more analytical work. Take into account positive and negative experiences and adjust the educational program based on it. For example, last year one of the annual tasks of your kindergarten was to improve the quality of pedagogical work on the development of children’s speech. As a result, in a year you have created an effective system for the development of speech. Include a description of this system in the educational program. This will allow you to use the system further. If your teachers could not implement some technique or it did not give the result that you expected from it, replace it with another one. Write it down in the educational program.

Download a sample of the PEP for preschool education

Checkpoints that the PEP is drawn up correctly

Take advantage of checkpoints. There are only five of them:

  1. Intermediate results of its implementation are formulated in the OOP.
  2. In the target section there is a subsection “Planned results of mastering the basic general education program by children”.
  3. Calculation of the ratio of parts of the educational program.
  4. The explanatory note sets out the content of the OOP DO.
  5. The organizational section covers the entire spectrum of educational activities with children.

The Institute of New Technologies in Education invites everyone to distance learning for professional retraining and advanced training programs, seminars and electives, and also offers to study and download templates of documents, recommendations and articles for free.

Intermediate results are formulated in the educational program

If you describe the intermediate results that you expect from the program, you will be able to evaluate the educational process along the way, and not just at the end of the cycle of the educational program. This is important for internal monitoring and WSOKO. Therefore, the educational program requires a separate section “Intermediate results of mastering the educational program”. To compile it, teachers need to describe what skills children will receive at different stages of the implementation of the educational program.

In the target section there is a subsection “Planned results of mastering the basic general education program by children”

Important

The educational program must be developed by the entire teaching staff. Otherwise, you violate paragraph 10 of Art. 3 of the Law on Education and infringe on the rights of teachers

According to the section “Planned results of mastering the basic general education program by children”, you can generally judge how effective your educational program is. If this section does not exist, you will not be able to evaluate the results of OOP. Therefore, before approving the program, check that this subsection exists and that it is spelled out in detail by teachers.

The program is compiled with an approximate calculation of the ratio of parts

The volume of the compulsory part of the program is not less than 60 percent of its total volume. The part formed by the participants in educational relations can take no more than 40 percent. Check the ratio of these parts in the educational program of your kindergarten.

The explanatory note tells about the content of the BEP

The explanatory note defines the content of the educational program. Check that your note is about what the positive differences and features of the program are, what forms will be used to implement them. Often they make historical or informational information out of it. An explanatory note makes it easier to understand the program. Make sure she does her job.

The organizational section describes the environment, conditions, daily routine

Check that the organizational section describes the developing spatial and subject environment and medical and social conditions. It is important that the daily regimen of children comply with SanPiN: the volume of continuous educational activities was not exceeded, the requirements for breaks between classes were observed, recommendations for distributing the load between increased physical activity and mental stress of children. Children need time for free productive, motor, spontaneous play activities – make sure that this is taken into account in the daily routine.

Enrollment of to Anna Muratova College continues in 18 specialties for everyone on the basis of 9th and 11th grades. Good luck applying. Limited number of seats.

Thanksgiving activities and centers for preschool, pre-k, and kindergarten

It’s turkey time, and that means Thanksgiving-themed centers for your classroom!  In this post, learn how to engage your students in hands-on, Thanksgiving-themed learning activities they will love.  Make learning so much fun, so they don’t even realize they are doing work!

Don’t forget to grab your FREE Thankful placemat later in the post!

> Grab my Thanksgiving Math and Literacy Centers,  Social Skills Curriculum and I Am Thankful pack for everything you need to bring Thanksgiving to your classroom! <<

Making a Thanksgiving dinner plate is a favorite in my class!  Grab some grocery store ads and cut them into manageable pieces (I cut mine on the folds).   Students cut yummy items from the ads and glue them to their plates.  If your students are struggling, draw a black line around the object.  Don’t forget to put an empty tub on the table for trash.

When I think of Thanksgiving, I think of pie.  Create a pie-making play dough tray.  For this activity, I put out small pie pans, small pie servers, apple counters, pear counters, a rolling pin, pizza cutters, and a spice jar (with red pom poms inside) to accompany the play dough.  This play dough tray will build students’ fine motor muscles, hand-eye coordination, and imagination.  It would be a fun activity to do after you read There was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie.
To keep the pie theme going, make puffy paint pies in art!  It’s easy to make puffy paint too.  It’s about equal parts, plain shaving cream (not the gel kind), white glue, and food coloring. Mix it all together to create the perfect consistency and color.  Then students spread orange puffy paint on a paper plate all the way to the edges.   Next, cut small strips of brown paper to make the crust, and since the paint has glue in it already, it will stick perfectly.  Lastly, place one cotton ball (aka whip cream) on top.

Corn painting is the perfect open-end art activity for Thanksgiving.  Look at the beautiful prints the corn makes when you roll it!

Add Thanksgiving-themed writing paper and vocabulary cards to your writing center.  I also added fall-colored dot markers and fall stickers to the center.

The Thanksgiving season gives us an opportunity to talk about being thankful.  Children can identify what gratefulness looks like, what it feels like, what we are thankful for, and how we can show others we are thankful.  Students colored mini I am Thankful books after we read The Thankful Book by Todd Parr.  This is included in my I Am Thankful pack in my TPT store.
You can also put blank thank you cards for students to write thank you cards to their friends and family.

Each student made their own thankful turkey craft.  On each feather, they wrote and drew things they were thankful for.  This is included in my I Am Thankful pack too.

Do you do a Thanksgiving celebration in your classroom?  Grab these thankful placemats BELOW.  Students can draw what they are thankful for in the middle and write it on the line at the top.

I hid these Thanksgiving letter puzzles in my sensory bin.  Students matched the uppercase and lowercase letters to create the picture.  Hiding puzzle pieces or game pieces in a sensory bin is a calming activity that stimulates students’ senses.  This is included in my Thanksgiving Centers.

Check out this beginning sound and letter match-up-turkey style.  I put some corn kernels in a tub and then added the letter feathers, sound feathers, and magnet letters.  I even threw in some magnet letters that didn’t match!  This is also included in my Thanksgiving Centers.

It’s so important to integrate sensory into different activities as the weather changes, and we have to stay inside more.  Those yucky days when students can’t go outside can be tough.  So I just had to do Thanksgiving turkey number puzzles hidden in the corn sensory bucket, which are included in my Thanksgiving Centers as well!

Students clapped the number of syllables in various foods and placed them onto the corresponding plate.  Add more movement and have students JUMP the syllables.  Trust me; it is a ton of fun! This is included in my Thanksgiving Centers.

One of my favorite Thanksgiving books is 10 Fat Turkeys.  It is a cute story, and as a bonus, I can use it to teach rhyme and informal subtraction!  I drew a line on the board for the fence and placed the 10 turkeys on it.  Students helped me put the numbers above the turkeys in order, and now we are identifying numbers too!  As I read, the students take the turkeys off one by one.  This is included in my Thanksgiving Centers. Take the Thanksgiving theme to the blocks center!  Add pumpkins, leaves, popsicle sticks, feathers, veggie counters, and cardboard pieces, and Fall STEM I Can Build Cards to get students building and engineering Thanksgiving things!

Truth:  bulletin boards are not my favorite thing.  I always strive to make the bulletin boards in and outside of my classroom filled with student work.  This turkey has to be the cutest bulletin board I have ever made.  It’s festive, colorful, and made with love by my students!
I cut long ovals for the feathers.  Students painted an AB pattern on each feather.  Students also helped me paint the circle turkey body and head.  Once everything was dry, I assembled the turkey and added the eyes, beak, and feet.

Simply writing numbers on paper is boring.  So why not write numbers in corn? Students pick a number card, write the number in the corn, and count out the corresponding number of pom poms to fill the ten frames.  Students are developing one-to-one correspondence, identifying numbers, writing numbers, and developing fine motor skills in this activity.   This is included in my Thanksgiving Centers.

Yes, two play dough trays for this theme!  For this turkey play dough tray, you will need brown play dough, feathers, eyes, beads, and orange pipe cleaners.  I had a turkey cookie cutter, so I added it to the tray too.  Students sculpt a turkey body with the play dough and add other items to create their turkey.  If you add dice, students can roll the dice and count out the corresponding number of feathers. Thanksgiving is full of food so investigate healthy foods, their bodies, and healthy habits at the science table.  Sort pretend food and practice various exercises (and time them too).  You can find all of these printables in my My Body and Teeth Science Unit HERE.

Love the activities?  Grab my Thanksgiving Math and Literacy Centers for 13 Thanksgiving-themed centers.  I just updated this unit (11/07/19) so if you own it, go to TpT to download it again for your FREE update.

Thanksgiving Fine Motor Skills

Thanksgiving Meal

Have children cut out pictures of their favorite foods and glue them on a paper plate. Grocery store sale papers from the newspaper can be used for pictures (or print out clipart).

Thanksgiving Art Activities

Coffee Filter Turkeys

Cut a coffee filter in half and have children paint it with watercolors. Cut out a turkey’s body from brown paper (a sort of gourd shape) and let the children glue it on. Have them draw eyes and a beak.

Pie Pan Art

Thanksgiving is all about pies and children may see pie pans used in the kitchen at this time of year. This art activity lets children use a pie pan with paint. Cut paper circles the same size to fit in a disposable pie pan. Place marbles in tempera paint. Have the children place the marbles in the pie pan (one at a time) and roll it around to paint the paper.

Dinner Napkins

Cut fabric into squares of about 12×12 inches using pinking shears. You can buy inexpensive fabric from the clearance area or ask parents to donate scraps. Have the children paint foam craft stamps with fabric paint and stamp it on the fabric. They can also paint designs directly onto the fabric. These can be used in a classroom Thanksgiving celebration or at home for Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanksgiving Literacy Activities

Pie Pan Writing

Here’s another way to allow children to use pie pans. Place orange tempera paint or fingerpaint in a disposable pie pan. Use enough to cover the bottom of the pan. Have the children use their finger to practice writing letters in the paint. You can also use pudding instead of paint (color vanilla pudding orange to look like pumpkin pie).

Giving Thanks Class Book

Ask children to think of things they are thankful for, and illustrate it on a sheet of paper. Each child’s page would read: “_____ is thankful for _____.” Example: “Nash is thankful for friends.” To make our class books, I use “presentation book covers” from an office supply store or Walmart. It has a sturdy plastic cover with a clear insert, and the pages are also clear inserts. I just slip in a page for the front cover, and slip in the children’s pages inside. These can be reused.

Thanksgiving Center Activities

Sensory Table: Pie Crust Dough

At large group time, mix different consistencies of flour and water mixtures (similar to pie crust dough). Make 3-4 bowls using varying amounts of flour and water. Place the bowls in the sensory table, and allow children to explore and feel the difference of the consistencies. Another idea is to place a cup of flour, cup of water, bowl, and spoon in the sensory table, and let the children choose how much of each substance to add to their bowl and stir. You can read more about this sensory table here (see Flour & Water Mixture).

House Center

Thanksgiving Day in the USA | USA – interesting to know

Giant Balloon in Thanksgiving Day Parade

Thanksgiving Day in the USA is one of the most popular and beloved holidays of Americans, along with Christmas and Easter. It is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. On this day, Americans attend a church service, after which they gather in the family circle for a festive dinner.

© Jodi/Flickr

Among the main culinary delights of the United States, on Thanksgiving Day, the signature American dish – stuffed turkey – deserves special attention. Among the most common breeds of these birds today is the white Dutch turkey.

© RiaPereira/Flickr

But why exactly did the turkey become a symbol of the festive table, and why is the feast of gratitude remarkable? To answer these questions, it is worth delving a little into the history of Thanksgiving on American soil.

© Dave Fimbres Photography/Flickr

History of Thanksgiving

The origin of the holiday is associated with a group of English Protestant Puritans who, in September 1620, fleeing religious persecution in their homeland, sailed on the ship Mayflower to the New World. After two months of sailing, their ship landed on the east coast of America (New England).

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

They landed in what is now Massachusetts, where the decision was made to set up the first camp. However, the New World was not merciful to the settlers: difficulties in finding food, the harsh local climate, unknown diseases – all this served as an aid to the deterioration of living conditions. More than half of the colonists became seriously ill and died on the new continent in the first winter from hunger and want.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

The surviving Puritans established Plymouth Colony, the oldest English settlement in America, and little by little formed friendships with the local natives. American Indians played a decisive role in their survival, gladly responded to the requests of new neighbors, helped to establish a life and manage the household.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

Thanks to the Indians, the settlers learned to cultivate the land, grow pumpkins, sow beans and corn, and hunt wild turkeys. By the way, the outsiders received the recipe for the famous maple syrup from the Indians.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

An unexpectedly rich harvest in the fall of 1621 rewarded the colonists for their efforts. And since the first settlers were deeply religious Christians, they decided to give thanks to the Lord for his mercy. The Indians of the tribe were invited to the celebration, which helped them stay alive.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

For a long time Thanksgiving was an unofficial holiday in New England and was celebrated on an occasional basis.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

After the independence of the United States in 1776, the young country had to hastily acquire its own traditions and holidays. Thanksgiving Day in the United States became a public holiday in 1789 with the light hand of the first president, George Washington. He signed a decree on the celebration of Thanksgiving Day on November 26th of each year.

© Steven Shepard/Flickr

And yet, the holiday gained nationwide recognition and love only in 1864, when on that day Abraham Lincoln called on the troops of the North and South to end hostilities and, having shared a common table and food, come to a peaceful solution to the issue. A year later, the civil war came to an end, and it was decided to celebrate Thanksgiving Day on the last Thursday of every November. At 1941, this date was legally approved.

Traditional Thanksgiving Treats

Thanksgiving has evolved over the years and is carefully followed by Americans. On this bright holiday in the morning, Americans rush to church, and then the whole family gathers at a festive table laden with traditional dishes, and be sure to read a prayer of thanksgiving together.

© barbara carroll/Flickr

On the eve of the holiday, the house is decorated with berries and branches, bouquets of brown, yellow and orange chrysanthemums, which is associated with the autumn season and a rich harvest. On this day, several generations of the same family meet at the same table in the house of elders. During a family meal, each of those present thanks the Almighty for all the joyful events that took place in his life last year.

© cilantropist.blogspot.com

Turkey is the main attribute of a festive feast. The preparation of solemn dishes is most often done by the mother, but only the head of the family is trusted to cut the turkey. The first pieces of treats go to the children, then they are distributed according to seniority. So, from a tender age, Americans strive to form in the minds of their children respect for family traditions and a passion for national dishes.

Also on the table are usually sweet potatoes, yams, pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce. According to historians, it was these dishes that decorated the first Thanksgiving holiday table back in the 17th century.

© Michael Ang/Flickr

The traditional celebratory drink on this day is apple cider, which is usually served hot and certainly well seasoned with spices.

Turkey pardon ceremony

There is a tradition of pardoning a turkey in the White House on the eve of the celebration. This is done so that at least one bird can avoid becoming the main dish of the feast. A few months before the ceremony, about thirty turkeys are selected, whose candidatures are then posted on the White House website. Anyone can give their voice to the bird they like. The winning turkey and its “understudy” are diligently prepared for an honorable meeting with the president – they are hand-fed, thus teaching them not to be afraid of strangers.

© Carlos Barria/Reuters

The first official turkey pardon ceremony was held in 1989 by US President George W. Bush. Since then, every year the most successful turkey and its “understudy” bypass the fate of being roasted and after a solemn pardon ceremony, they are transferred to the zoo, where they live until old age.

Thanksgiving Day Today

On Thanksgiving Day, costumed parades take place throughout the United States. On the central streets of the cities, carnivals, enchanting processions, theatrical and circus performances are held in honor of the first settlers of America. For the first time such a parade was held at 1924 in Detroit.

However, the most famous Thanksgiving Day parade has been held annually in New York City since 1927 with the support of Macy’s largest department store chain – Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The participation in the parade of giant inflatable toys depicting cartoon and comic book characters adds to the showiness and scale of this event.

© Christian Bobadilla/Flickr

It is also customary throughout the country to devote time to charity in anticipation of the holiday. At this time, charitable organizations collect donations in the form of money, things, food, organize free meals and distribute gifts to the homeless and the poor. Great tradition, isn’t it?

© Pine Street Inn/Flickr

On the American continent, another tradition that has recently become popular with the local population is associated with the Thanksgiving Day of American football finals.

© Paul Moseley/Flickr

The day after Thanksgiving is called “Black Friday” (due to heavy traffic jams). This day is significant in that it is with it that the long-awaited season of pre-Christmas sales in stores across the country begins.

© Michael Nagle/Getty Images

Thanksgiving Day is the favorite family holiday of Americans, which has its own history and good traditions. This holiday is expected in every family, as this is another reason to enjoy communication with relatives and close friends, as well as to thank the Lord for support in difficult times.

Thanksgiving Day: traditions, menus and vocabulary

Author: Alisa Ryzhkova

Not far off Thanksgiving Day is an annual national holiday in the United States and Canada when people celebrate the harvest and remember all the blessings of the year. We have prepared a brief educational program to dot the i’s.

History

Thanksgiving was originally a celebration of gratitude and appreciation to God, as well as to family and friends for material well-being and kindness. In the United States and Canada, this holiday has largely lost its religious significance and has become civil, generally accepted and nationwide.

The roots of this holiday go deep into American history, to the very first settlers from England, who arrived on the shores of America in 1620 on the now famous Mayflower ship. They landed after a hard voyage across a stormy ocean in what is now Massachusetts on a frosty November day and founded the Plymouth Colony.

More than half of the approximately 100 arrivals could not survive the harsh winter and died from cold, hunger and disease. The survivors established a colony and began tilling the land in the spring with the help of local Indians, most notably Squanto, who taught them what crops to grow and how to grow on this inhospitable rocky soil. An unexpectedly rich harvest was the reward for their efforts. The first governor of the colonists, William Bradford, proposed a day of thanksgiving to the Lord. For a holiday in the autumn of 1621, the Pilgrim Fathers invited the leader and 9 others0 Indians of the tribe that helped them survive in unfamiliar conditions. This meal, shared with the Indians, was the first Thanksgiving celebration. Subsequently, the colonists celebrated a good harvest with occasional Thanksgiving festivities.

After gaining independence and the emergence of a single state of the United States, the first president of the country, George Washington, proposed to celebrate Thanksgiving Day as a national holiday every year on November 26th. And after the end of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln declared the fourth Thursday of November to be Thanksgiving Day.

Menu

Turkeys are usually stuffed with chestnuts and/or minced meat and grains and baked in the oven.

Cranberry Sauce – Cranberry Sauce

No one serves Thanksgiving turkey without this seasonal sauce. The first pilgrims learned all about cranberries from the Indians who picked these berries in the fall. Today, some people serve purchased cranberry sauce, but if you have time, you can try making your own. All you need to do is boil some sugar and water, add the cranberries, cook until the berries burst, mash them, and then let the sauce cool in the refrigerator.

Vegetables – Vegetables

Thanksgiving, which is closely associated with harvest festivals, uses all the vegetables traditionally harvested at that time of year. This means that there are a lot of root crops on the table – vegetables that grow in the ground, under the soil, and not above the ground or on trees. This includes potatoes of all kinds, parsnips, carrots, yams, and the most popular Thanksgiving vegetable, pumpkin.

Marshmallow Sweet Potato – Sweet Potato Casserole With Marshmallows

This is a Thanksgiving favorite baked all over the country. All you have to do is toast the sweet potatoes, then mash them, add some butter and cinnamon, sprinkle with marshmallows, and then put them back in the oven until the marshmallows are browned.

Pumpkin Pie – Pumpkin Pie

Not only do Americans serve pumpkin as a vegetable, but they also sweeten pumpkin puree to use as a tasty topping for this traditional pie.

Pecan Pie – Pecan Pie

Another popular type of pie is another ingredient harvested in autumn. This maple syrup-sweetened pie uses pecans, but it’s not the only dish that has them on the dinner table. They are crushed and used as part of turkey stuffing, and mixed with roasted vegetables.

Traditions

Travel – Traveling

One of the best things about Thanksgiving is spending time with family. Many people live far away from family members and travel long distances by car, train or plane to be with their loved ones. Thanksgiving is often one of the busiest days of the year!

Turkey Pardon – The Turkey Pardon

Every Thanksgiving, the President of the United States receives a turkey as a gift. At a ceremony at the White House, the President traditionally grants her a “pardon” so that she can live on a farm.

Breast bone (Wishbone) – Wishbone

In some families, the turkey breast bone is broken. After the meat was removed from it, the bone became dry and brittle, two people take the bone from different ends, make a wish and pull. Whoever gets the most of the dice can count on the fulfillment of his desire!

TV – TV

Many families watch the New York Thanksgiving Day Parade, which includes marching bands, floats, songs and numbers from Broadway musicals, and giant helium balloons. People enjoy watching football matches and also playing outside.

Helping Others – Charity

Thanksgiving is a great time to help people less fortunate in life. Some people volunteer to distribute food at homeless shelters; others make donations to shelters or participate in canned food campaigns.

After Meals – After Meals

Food eaten, dishes washed… now it’s time to relax. Some families ride bikes, walk or sleep. Others play board or card games together.

7. To be a mixed blessing I’ll have to spend a lot of time training. – Being on a team is a mixed blessing. I have to spend a lot of time training.

Despite the fact that we do not celebrate this holiday, this is another great opportunity to learn more about the culture and traditions of the United States, so as not to accidentally get into trouble when visiting the country.

Share with friends

the history of the holiday, its traditions and symbols

American autumn is rich in holidays. In November, millions of citizens and residents of the United States will celebrate their most beloved, long-awaited and family holiday (not counting Christmas) – Thanksgiving Day . In English, Thanksgiving Day is called Thanksgiving Day and is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Most Americans also take Friday off to get four days off during which they can travel long distances to visit family and friends. In the United States, indeed, very often families and relatives live in different states and cities.

In our country we know about Thanksgiving first of all from Hollywood films and thanks to English lessons at school. If you are lucky with a teacher and he loves the culture of the country whose language he teaches you, then you will also love the holidays of this great country and discover a lot for yourself. And if not, then you should think about finding a private teacher.

Thanksgiving Day is a special holiday for Americans, and why this is so can be understood from the lessons of American history. Within the framework of this article, unfortunately, it is impossible to tell all the subtleties of historical facts more than 400 years ago. And I can immediately say that the official version of history is kinder, more joyful and happy than what actually happened. However, we will not go into such details, simply because in the framework of general education on this topic, it is not necessary to know this. American Thanksgiving began as a holiday in the early years of the American colonies, almost four hundred years ago.

In 1620, a ship with over a hundred passengers sailed across the Atlantic Ocean to stop in the New World. Pilgrims from England settled in what is now Massachusetts. Their first winter in the New World was very difficult. They arrived too late to grow enough crops, there was no fresh food or vitamins. Half the colony died of disease in the first winter. The following spring, local Iroquois Indians taught the colonists how to grow corn (maize), showed them other crops to grow, and taught them how to hunt and fish.

In the autumn of 1621, the colonists had their first bountiful harvest of corn, barley, beans, and pumpkins. The first Americans received so much of everything that they were very grateful. They invited a local Indian chief and 90 Indians. The Indians brought with them deer, turkeys and other wild animals. The colonists learned from the Indians how to cook cranberries and various corn and pumpkin dishes. According to legend, on the first Thanksgiving, the Indians even brought popcorn. Such is the legend. This holiday is surrounded by many myths, many of which today have refutation.

In later years, many of the original colonists began to celebrate the harvest. George Washington proposed the November 26 date for Thanksgiving. Then, in 1863, at the end of the long and bloody civil wars, Abraham Lincoln asked all Americans to celebrate the last Thursday in November as Thanksgiving. To this day, Thanksgiving dinner almost always includes dishes served at the first Thanksgiving: roast turkey, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie. Before eating, a pause is made and a prayer or words of gratitude are read to thank for everything, including the joy of getting together with the whole family. Thanksgiving became a national tradition, not only because so many Americans found prosperity and wealth in this country, but also because the pilgrims who sacrificed for their freedom still captivate the imagination.

Thanksgiving Traditions and Symbols

The first football game (we mean American football) was broadcast in 1934. It started in Detroit with the Detroit Lions and the tradition is strong to this day. The Thanksgiving Day Parade began in 1924 and also marks the start of the Christmas season. Now this tradition is known as Black Friday. Franklin Roosevelt extended the Christmas shopping season and stimulated the economy by allowing Fridays off.

Turkey, corn, pumpkin and pumpkin pie, and cranberry sauce are symbols that represent the first Thanksgiving dinner. Now all these symbols are printed on holiday decorations and greeting cards. Corn is also a symbol of the autumn season and harvest. Sweet and sour cranberry sauce, or jelly, was on the first Thanksgiving table and still is.

Modern Thanksgiving in America is a delicious family dinner with must-have dishes on the table, a football game, city parades, and a must-have pre-Christmas mood. And of course, obligatory prayers and words of gratitude.

Public recognition of the role of Indians in Thanksgiving is an important part of American history. Until now, most schoolchildren believe that the pilgrims prepared the entire festive dinner and brought it to the Indians. In fact, without the help of the Indians, the first settlers would not have survived.

Why peacekeepers are needed, what must be on the table for Thanksgiving and who John the Merciful is – all the details in the material “MK in Omsk”.

Day of the Russian military peacekeeper is celebrated on November 25. This holiday has not yet been officially established, and November 25 was chosen because on this day in 1973, a group of Soviet military for the first time became a member of the peacekeeping operation in the Middle East at the official level. Peacekeepers are involved in various military operations when there are no results from previously adopted economic and political measures. In 2002, the UN General Assembly established the International Day of UN Peacekeepers. It is celebrated on 29May. The activities of Russian peacekeepers were legalized in 1995 by a decree of the President of the Russian Federation.

Russian peacekeepers ensured peace in such countries and regions as Bosnia and Herzegovina, South Ossetia, Abkhazia, Transnistria, Sudan, Sierra Leone, CAR, Chad, Liberia, Kosovo, Tajikistan, Angola, Nagorno-Karabakh. November 25 is an important professional holiday, as it is celebrated by people who are called to adequately represent Russia as a guarantor of peace anywhere in the world.

Thanksgiving Day is celebrated every fourth Thursday in November in the USA. In 2021, this holiday fell on November 25th. Thanksgiving was first celebrated in 1621 by English colonists who lived in Plymouth Colony. The Puritans brought a deep religious meaning to this holiday – they saw it as a way to thank the Almighty for mercy. Thanksgiving became a national holiday in the United States after it was approved by President George Washington in 1789.year. Thanksgiving Day has a number of traditions:

the whole family must go to church, and after the service gather at the festive table. There must be a turkey on the table. At the first feast, the colonists and Indians roasted and ate together four turkeys shot in the nearby woods. Since then, turkey and Thanksgiving have become synonymous, poultry farmers fatten turkeys especially for this holiday.

According to the folk calendar of Russia, November 25 is celebrated as Ivan the Merciful. This is a patriarch who lived in Alexandria in the 6th-7th centuries. John was the son of the governor of the island of Cyprus. Having lost his wife and children, he began to lead an ascetic life, constantly taking care of the poor. After the people elected John to the patriarchal throne, he counted all the poor in Alexandria and distributed his property to them. In Russia, wedding weeks ended at this time. The next marriages were concluded only with the end of winter – on Maslenitsa or on Krasnaya Gorka. Therefore, girls and boys who did not meet their fate had to wait until spring and envy more successful girlfriends and friends. If snow fell on Ivan the Merciful or it rained, then long thaws could be expected.

Tips for a Safe Thanksgiving – Jefferson Center

Tips for a Safe Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is just around the corner. For many, this means turkey, family and football. Regardless of your traditions, one thing is certain: this year’s holidays will be unlike any other. With an ongoing pandemic that continues to disrupt daily life, Americans are wondering what this means for their vacation plans.

Family gatherings this year may put loved ones at risk, especially the vulnerable and the elderly. It is better to skip one family holiday in order to celebrate together next year. The safest way to celebrate this year is with family. If you’re planning a holiday with people outside of your family, there are ways to make the holiday safer.

WHAT TO AVOID

In general, CDC suggests Avoid the following holidays:

  • Attending large indoor meetings with people outside of your household.
  • Participation or spectator in a crowded race.
  • Visiting crowded parades.
  • Shopping in crowded stores in the Thanksgiving area.
  • . alcohol or drugs that can cloud judgment.

Of course, this is not always possible, and people tend to spend their holidays with their loved ones. The following are just some of the ways to ensure a safer celebration.

TRAVEL SAFELY

Not traveling is the safest option, but for those who must travel this Thanksgiving, consider all your options. Short car trips are the least risky, while longer flights, especially those with transfers, are the most risky.

If you are traveling long distances by car or on long connecting flights, use the following steps to protect yourself and others from COVID-19:

  • Wear a mask in public places, including airports and train stations.
  • Stay at least 6 feet away from anyone outside of your household.
  • Wash your hands frequently or use hand sanitizer (at least 60% alcohol).
  • Avoid contact with sick people.
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

PREPARE FOR QUARANTINE

One of the safest ways to reduce your risk is to quarantine for two weeks after your trip. It may not be possible for everyone, but for those who can, public health experts recommend quarantine for 10-14 days before participating in Thanksgiving celebrations. The time frame of 10-14 days is based on the incubation period of the virus. Quarantine is a way to make sure you don’t have a virus and therefore can’t pass it on to others.

REVIEW YOUR DINNER

For many, preparing for an all-day meal is just as important as enjoying a big meal together. Food is the backbone of Thanksgiving, so this year it’s important to find ways and safe alternatives to keep the holiday going.

Virtual Dinner

This is the safest option for those who are uncomfortable gathering in groups or have vulnerable family members. You can practice all the same traditions together in a virtual space, even if you cook in different places! It’s also helpful to reach out to loved ones and stay in touch with your friends and family if you can’t be all together on Thanksgiving.

Eat with housemates

Spending Thanksgiving intimately with loved ones is another way to keep Thanksgiving safe. The CDC even suggests preparing traditional family recipes for friends, family and neighbors and delivering them without contact with other people. It’s a great way to stay in touch with loved ones and build empathy and gratitude, which are the essence of Thanksgiving!

Dine outdoors

For those planning a Thanksgiving gathering with friends and family, having an outdoor dinner is the safest option. This is especially true if guests have traveled significant distances. As the weather gets colder, it becomes more difficult in certain areas, so creating the right environment with heaters, fire pits, appropriate clothing, and other methods is extremely important.

TIPS FOR RECEIVING THANKS

For those of you planning to organize a Thanksgiving celebration with people outside your household, the CDC suggests the following:

  • Eat outdoors. The risk of spreading COVID-19 is lower outdoors.
  • Limit the number of guests.
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces and objects between uses.
  • Keep your windows open when celebrating indoors.
  • Limit the number of people in food preparation areas.
  • Consider having guests bring their own food and drinks.
  • Have one person serve disposable food such as plastic utensils.

TIPS FOR ATTENDING A THANKS HOLIDAY

If you will be attending the celebration with people who are not members of your family, the CDC recommends the following:

  • Consider bringing your own food, cups, plates, drinks and dishes.
  • Wear a mask and keep it in a safe place while eating and drinking.
  • Avoid places where food is prepared.
  • Use single-use items such as salad dressings and condiment bags and single-use items such as food containers, plates and utensils.

TALK TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY

Communication is key, and as the mask-wearing debate continues to rage across the country, we need to communicate with our loved ones about whether it is safe to get together for Thanksgiving. Start those tough conversations right now and don’t make judgments. Everyone’s comfort level is different, valid and should always be respected. While we’re talking to our loved ones about what we like and don’t like, we can help ensure a safer holiday season.

CELEBRATE IN OTHER WAYS

With the world’s ongoing instability, now is a great opportunity to create new holiday traditions or celebrate them in unconventional ways! Try cooking a new dish, decorating or doing arts and crafts, writing thank you letters, or just watching a new show. Just because the holidays look different this year doesn’t mean you shouldn’t use this time to celebrate with your loved ones in safe ways so you can all have a good time!

Thanksgiving is not always a holiday for everyone.

Mi Casita Day Care

I love LOVE Mi Casita Day Care. They treat your children as if they are theirs children. They cook them homemade foods, so many things to do. The providers really do look out for you and try to hell you out as much as they can.

Lil’ Polliwog’s Daycare

I cannot say enough about how much we love Lil Polliwogs!! My daughter has been attending this daycare for nearly a year and has gone from being a very shy, timid little baby, to a chatty, expressive and social toddler. She has learned SO much – always bringing home different art projects, singingnew songs and talking about her many little friends that she has made. Towanna is amazing, she has such a calm and loving presence and has been so accommodating and understanding through several schedule changes that my husband and I have had. She is always prompt and communicates regularly with photos/updates and lunch menus. The staff are wonderful, they are loving and engaged with the kids, and from the beginning I felt completely at ease in knowing that my daughter was well cared for. She clearly loves this daycare and so do we!…

Lisa’s Little Sunshine

I searched and will continue to search high and low for a daycare. I thought I found the perfect space for my child. However the communication is a huge opportunity. There was a lot of back and forth on both end as Felicia is not very clear and I had a lot of questions being a 1st time mom.I onlyneeded my child to there for 3 days a week which was always clear. She then asked me was I sure because the child that previously held the spot wanted to come back. I told her I was 100% sure and would move forward due to us not wanting the spot to be taken. I paid the $150 enrollment fee only to receive another message from her asking if my child was coming 3 days a week and to confirm the start date. I replied to her and even called her to clarify and did not receive a response. The next morning I got an auto email stating that my child was unenrolled with no communication from Felicia. I had to give her a call for her to explain the me that the spot was no longer available and was given to a family that was coming fulltime. With all that being said I just wish she was clear from the beginning that she preferred a fulltime family. I unfortunately cannot afford my child to be in daycare fulltime but I would have started searching elsewhere if that information was made clear. I also didn’t appreciate them accepting my money then going with another family not even 24hrs later with little to no communication. Not very nice , unprofessional and poor communication. The facility is nice and I pray she is able to improve in those areas….

Not just from his immediate teachers, but also the other teachers and staff members as well. They always greeted uswith a smile and it set the tone for him to have an amazing day. Communication was excellent and they responded to all questions and requests in a timely manner. The staff and student body was diverse.

To be honest, choosing the Sheepshead Bay daycare center is not a simple task, as caregivers to whom you entrust the development of your child should be well-trained and possess an array of personal qualitiesand characteristics. Highly trained classroom staff is what you should pay attention to when making a well-informed decision. Preschool education is not something that anyone can go into. Thus, Little Scholars may be your smartest choice as our preschool teachers are:
Patient: facing daily challenges, great caregivers should have plenty of patience to teach kids with different levels of development without getting riled up.
Flexible: dealing with unforeseen situations is a must-have skill for every preschool teacher since anything can happen, so the ability to respond quickly and wisely can help to tackle any challenge.
Dedicated: a good specialist knows how to inspire and motivate even the smallest ones. Only excellent and passionate daycare Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn educators will give your child great care and take care of his/her future.
Compassionate: to feel deeply for all little students as they experience the ups and downs associated with education and development is a part of our job. Teachers will support your kids in their strivings, first success and failure.
Innovative: our specialists will find a solution to any challenge and come up with fresh ideas on how to interact with the entire group, so everyone is valued. We continue to discover and devise new approaches and methods to ensure that every kid gets the best possible learning experiences….

Recent Review:

Three cheers for the unsung heroes of this pandemic that are the wonderful souls who have saved our children, specifically Miss HK. Miss HK , the founder & CEO of the HK Institute embodies exactly what Ibelieve all parents of young children truly dream for in terms of someone to educate their child , pandemic or not. Taking into account that The HK Institute opened their doors, hearts and personal cell phone numbers to anyone and everyone in need in perfect synchronicity with the schools closing nationwide – it was clear from the from the start that Miss HK was someone who was involved purely from the goodness of her heart and her love of her “nuggets” as she lovingly refers to all her students. Hailing from the Ivy League halls of Columbia University & the sunny streets of Sesame Street – Miss HK’s progressive vision and approach to education is not one that you will have the chance to come in contact with many times in life. Her brilliance is only outweighed by her kindness. In regards to program structure she has meticulously created a magical little enclave that is rooted deeply in the concept of inclusive education, multiple intelligences, undivided attention to all details , differentiated instruction and diverse curriculum theories ( *reggio & Montessori & TC reading and writing project ) . To sum it up when signing up for the HK Institute you will get all of the rich academic content of any rival private prep school but along with that you also get a personalized education plan that includes everything from mindfulness morning meditation paddle boarding , assistive technology & learning disability support, personal chefs and there is rumor to be an emotional support pony in the pipeline. It sounds like I’m joking but knowing that my children now have the gumption and guidance of Miss HK & the HK Institute running the show – I am confident anything is possible from academics and beyond. Don’t hesitate to lock down a spot as this isn’t going to stay such a well kept secret for much longer….

tell me a good kindergarten in Richmond Hill

  1. Forum
  2. Archive
  3. Foreign mothers

I will move to R. Hill, I need a good kindergarten, maybe even a Russian one, tell me, recommend

stare at the clock, when you can already breathe from it and give it to your mother; a kindergarten where there is an adequate number of children for caregivers, and not 30 children for two;
It’s up to you, but I would stay away from Russian kindergartens

And what about 5 years? At the age of 5, they already go to school.

You must have had a bad experience. You don’t have to immediately criticize all Russian kindergartens like that. Our eldest went only a year to kindergarten until Kindergarten. Up to 3.5 years. There she was taught to read and write in Russian, to count. There were 5 children in the kindergarten.

The middle one went to another kindergarten, there were more children, but there were also more teachers. The activities were full.

The younger one goes to the garden now. Six children, two teachers. Classes and developmental entertainment all day long. From the first day, he took root there like a native. Every morning he runs with joy to the garden.

Nice Russian kindergartens have wonderful homemade food, lots of activities. And most importantly – the Russian language.

Few of the children who start going to kindergarten with English, then speak Russian. This is more of an exception.

Richmond Hill is big, from Highway 7 to Aurora.

Well, you see, everyone has their own priorities, if for you this is the Russian language, then of course; Are you not afraid that by school the child will not really know English after the Russian kindergarten? or will you go to a Russian school?
and if you still go to a Canadian school, the Russian language will disappear with time, but it will be a difficult adaptation to school. I have a foster kid who lived in Russia for 8 years, here for a year there were horns and legs from the Russian, given the fact that my husband and I speak mostly Russian with him. And in Russia I finished the first class well.

No, we’re fine with English. Russian is not only spoken, but also read and written. There are no problems with English. They study wonderfully. They read a lot. The eldest (6th grade) passed the gifted test, is engaged in this program, she also participates in all literary circles, participates in some city school competitions, and also brings diplomas.

And all of our friends, and there are quite a lot of them, children who are now in the senior classes, have gone the same way – a Russian kindergarten, then a regular school. None of them had any problems with English. And everyone speaks Russian.

does the 6th grader have many Russian friends?

you wouldn’t equate the realities of your village with Toronto, we have a lot of Russian children in any school, Russian doesn’t disappear anywhere with them, especially if they speak it at home. My child, sitting at home with a Russian grandmother, speaks excellent English.

as for me, the main thing is that the children are well looked after and well fed in the garden, and we can develop at home.

Sorry, not for you, but for Bonet.
<>

Excuse me, but where does your child speak English from if he/she hasn’t been to school yet?

as far as I know, if a child watches TV and communicates with older brothers and sisters, he speaks English. The children communicate with each other in English, as you know.

this question worried us ourselves) but apparently TV, an older sister and trips with parents on vacation and shopping to restaurants did their job. A lot! But, as written below, TV and communication with a brother, with girlfriends only in English make English great. At home with my parents, with me in Russian. With other grandparents on the phone, too, in Russian.

Children “grab” the tongue literally out of thin air. Even from snatches of speech on a walk or on TV.

I am sitting in the village not by compulsion, but by personal choice, I feel sick to look at Russian faces and all their show-offs, I went to Canada so as not to see why I should look for them here
wait until the child goes to a Canadian school and when grandmother will no longer sit; Russian is preserved by those who tinker in the Russian community and mingle with Russians PERMANENTLY

at 6 pm will you sit down to develop him when he sleeps in an hour? Or only on Saturdays and Sundays?

what a horror, because you need to speak Russian at home! I know well-fed families where children were simply forbidden to speak English, they went to class up to 3 as new arrivals without English; they wanted to go to the sea for 2 months in February, the law is not written for Russians, think school

we only speak Russian at home (I somehow can’t imagine it any other way), that’s what my daughter has no problems with, it’s English!

our 1. 3 year old Russian grandmother sits with him at home, we do not watch TV, she communicates with Russians on the site. I already picked up English somewhere and even learned to translate

it’s not only what language you are at home, what lifestyle you lead and where the child still goes and with whom he communicates plays a big role, if friends are only Russian and communication in Russian, the garden is Russian , mom turns off cartoons and puts on disks with Russians – this will be a problem at school, I personally know such a family – a kid was born in Canada, barely started to speak English at school, and even not in grade 1

you child prodigy! he apparently learned 16 languages ​​​​in the womb, you test him, for sure he also knows French, German, etc.

Well, Russian might start to deteriorate when she talks less to her parents, generally less, how much do teenagers talk to their parents? – not to mention grandparents, but more with friends who speak English; in general, what does it mean “he speaks beautifully” you need to figure it out (this is not for you personally, but for everyone here) – who has what standards and what they call wonderful

about a boy, I’m sure it’s some kind of problem if he doesn’t speak English well.
Russian will leave easily if you don’t support it, but if English doesn’t come, then it means a problem, to a speech therapist

he got out of control and began to speak as much English as he wanted

speech therapist not only works with monolingual children, you have a very narrow idea, there is such a problem when a second language is not given in any way, doctors cope with this

No, not at all. Are you talking about exceptions? There are a lot of children around who are completely fluent and easily speak two languages, and some even three. and from preschool age.

At school for children: Russian-English, Greek-English, Italian-English, Arbian-English. Well, and Chinese-English, of course.

They speak their own language at home, at school and with friends in English. They keep their language.

do not invent, if you learned one language you are learning another, unless you can pronounce it and need help, all sorts of dyslexia dysgraphia dysarthria deafness are corrected in childhood; except perhaps some incredible “-iya” into foreign characters

And what time did he start speaking at all, he doesn’t speak any of our 1. 3, but everyone really understands him, but I think that he should start somehow, despite the bilingual family. But so that you didn’t even hear it. Did you speak early?

of course he knows: “Bye-Bye”, “Bye-Bye”, “Adiu” You don’t have to be a child prodigy. He is enough on the street in the pool, in the store.

per year. By the way, his first word was “Walk.” In our family, they are afraid to pronounce this word, because if he hears it, he runs to the door, and you won’t get out.

What kind of children do they go to bed at 7 o’clock? Personally, my early 9-10 do not fit, so half past 6 pm is just that, especially if you take into account that more than 30-40 minutes for a child of 3-4 years old, no development will go

I finally have a child who has long graduated from a Canadian school and I have already finished half of the university, so there is no need to learn the exchange.
PS when you see Russians, I suppose in English. let’s move on right away, like I’m not like that, I’m waiting for the tram?)))))

I didn’t change my mind to switch to English with Russians, I HATE show-offs of any kind
was your adult child born here? do not equalize those who came here with Russian already and those who taught him here from birth; my daughter came to Canada after the 3rd grade, so far she can do something in Russian, the adoptive one will also not forget for a long time, but in the younger one who started going to the Canadian kindergarten from 9 months, I’m not sure

my daughter arrived long BEFORE first grade, but she wasn’t born here, she speaks Russian very well, practically without an accent, sometimes she doesn’t understand humor or can distort a word, but she doesn’t have “I have a bad understanding” + she can quickly read a fairy tale to a Russian child and an article in the newspaper if necessary.

you seem to be an expert in all areas of medicine
