Starting preschool is a big milestone for both your child and you. Learning to spend time apart can be a difficult transition, but beginning the formal learning journey is exciting too. Here are eight tips to help make the transition to preschool a smooth one.
1. Visit together
If you are able, plan to go to your child’s new school together before their first day. Play on the playground together and explore the classroom. This way, when they start on day one, school will be a familiar place.
2. Make new friends
If possible, arrange aplaydate with children from your child’s class. This will allow them to get to know each other before school starts.
3. Play school together at home
Use pretend play to help your child get used to the idea of preschool. Take turns acting out different routines like story time, singing songs and nap time. You can also switch up the roles and let your child be the teacher. This will help your child think of school as a fun place and reduce anxiety on day one.
4. Turn getting-ready skills into a game
Practice fastening buttons and zippers, putting on a backpack and hanging a coat or jacket on a hook. You could turn putting on shoes into a game – see how fast you can do it!
5. Share your experience
Tell your little one stories about when you first went to school, how you felt and special memories you made. If you can, find preschool photographs of yourself or other trusted adults your child knows and talk about them together.
6. Create a new routine
Start practicing the new bedtime and wake-up time your child will need for preschool several weeks before school actually starts – pick a bedtime that will provide a good night’s rest and a wake-up time early enough so neither of you have to rush in the morning. This will give both of you time to adjust. If you are able, you could even start a new tradition of picking out clothes together the night before school and eating breakfast together in the morning.
7. Listen to your child
Ask your little one about their feelings about going to school and reassure them that it is normal to feel excited, worried or any other emotions. Starting something new can feel scary and big – but it can also be lots of fun! Reassure your child that you will be there to pick them up at the end of the day and talk about what those routines will look like, too.
8. Have a good-bye plan
Saying goodbye can be difficult for both you and your child! When that time comes, try to keep your parting quick and positive – reassure your child that you will see each other again soon. You can even have a special routine that will help comfort your child: sing a song together or do a special handshake.

Preschool Basics: How Children Develop During the Preschool Years
Amy Halliburton
Former MU Graduate Student
Sara Gable
State Specialist, Human Development and Family Studies
The preschool years (ages 2-1/2 to 5) are an exciting time for young children. When they were infants, they developed a trust of their caregivers. As toddlers, they began to establish some independence. Now, as preschoolers, they use this trust and independence to actively explore new forms of play (e.g., pretend play) and new environments (e.g., school).
Preschoolers need to learn how to make choices for themselves and how to feel good about the choices they make. It is their job to “learn to take initiative in socially acceptable ways” (Erikson, 1963).
Preschool-aged children’s style of thinking and learning can best be described as “what you see is what you get,” or reasoning based on the way things look. Preschoolers rely heavily on the literal appearance of things as a means of understanding the world around them. For example, if a child breaks her graham cracker into four pieces while her brother breaks his in half, she thinks that she has more graham cracker than her brother because she has four pieces and he only has two pieces. Similarly, a child may begin a friendship with another child because of something appealing that the other child has, such as a pretty dress or a new toy.
Adults play an important role in helping children take initiative and explore their environments. Adults’ behaviors, attitudes and styles of thinking contribute to preschoolers’ development. Talking with children and including them in conversations helps to develop their language skills. It is important to give children opportunities for make-believe play. This helps them to understand themselves and others, and encourages their imaginations.
This guide presents the developmental milestones of the preschool years — accompanied by suggestions for how you can foster children’s positive development. There is special emphasis on issues relevant to preschoolers, including pretend play, the transition to school, and early literacy.
Development between 30 and 60 months
Each child grows and develops at his or her own rate — displaying developmental landmarks at different times. The table below shows characteristics that children between the ages of 2-1/2 and 5 will typically display as they grow and develop. For each type of development (such as physical, communication, etc.), younger children’s characteristics are at the top of each list, older children’s are at the bottom.

Provide children access to musical instruments such as home- made shakers, drums and bells.
Pretend play
Preschool children love to play, especially when their play activities involve make-believe. This special type of play, known as pretend play, is particularly important for young children’s development. As children’s thinking skills improve during the preschool years, they can remember and tell stories that follow a sequence of events and make sense to others. Pretend play is a great way for children to learn and develop skills such as:
Planning, including organizing the type of pretend play (such as “the beach”), roles (lifeguard, scuba diver, fisherman), and items/objects needed for the activity (whistle, goggles, flippers, fishing pole, beach towels)
How to solve problems and compromise (for example, “This time I’ll be the lifeguard who rescues you and next time you can rescue me.”)
How to communicate through words and actions
How to express emotions (for example, fear in the face of a child pretending to be a scary animal; delight or jealousy when a new baby comes home from the hospital)
Creativity and imagination; pretend experiences get more complicated and fantastic as children get older (for example, instead of simply being fishermen, they become deep sea explorers, searching for lost treasures on a sunken ship)
Memory skills, as favorite experiences are acted out over and over again (such as getting a new pet, eating at a restaurant, taking a trip to the zoo)
You can promote children’s development by creating an environment that supports pretend play. For example:
Establish an area for children’s pretend play and provide a variety of items, including purses, hats, shoes, clothing, telephones, kitchen materials, office supplies, junk mail, etc. Be sure to offer a storage area for pretend play items. For example, children can hang their “dress up” clothes on an old coat rack and store their other pretend play items in a laundry basket.
Encourage children to talk about their pretend play. Ask them to describe their pretend play to you: Who were they pretending to be? Why did they want to pretend they were that person? What did they get to do? However, don’t interrupt children with questions about their play when they are deep into a pretend play experience. Their fantasy experience can easily be disrupted if they have to shift gears and talk to someone outside of their make-believe experience.
Engage in pretend play with children. You can enhance children’s pretend play by offering suggestions for activities and introducing new words into children’s vocabulary. Be sure to follow the child’s lead. Let the child direct the fantasy play experience. Research shows that children are more agreeable and can express their developing independence when adults follow the child’s plan for the play. Examples of adult-child pretend play activities include having tea parties, bathing baby dolls, setting up a restaurant or beauty parlor, and being a librarian or mail carrier.
Attend to the theme of children’s pretend play. Research shows that, compared to children who engage in little or no violent fantasy play, children who engage in noticeably more violent fantasy play tend to be angrier and less cooperative. Examples of violent pretend play activities include aggressive monsters who hurt people or cops and robbers who kill each other.
Transition to school
As the preschool years come to a close, families are faced with the challenge of preparing their children to start school. Preparing for this transition can make the child’s experience (and the family’s experience) more comfortable. Transitions from preschool to school involve a shift in caregiver-child relationships and peer relationships — some relationships end while new ones begin. Children often have mixed emotions about this shift, including a sense of sadness about leaving their preschool or child care program, and a sense of excitement and anticipation about beginning school. The ability to deal with these emotions and adapt to these changes is important for a successful transition, which sets a positive tone for children’s adventures in school.
Here are some suggestions that can help you prepare your children for these transitions.
Arrange a visit to the child’s new school. Make sure the child meets his or her new teacher and has the opportunity to explore the new classroom.
Ask your child’s new teacher about the routines that your child can expect in the new classroom. For example, find out about naps (Do children take naps? Are naps gradually phased out over the course of the school year?), snacks (How many snack times are there during the day?), and lunch (Do children eat in the cafeteria? Will they have to carry a tray?).
Incorporate aspects of your child’s new routine into his or her current routine. For instance, if children eat lunch in the cafeteria, play a game at home where your child can learn how to balance a tray. If children do not take naps at your child’s new school, gradually phase out nap time during your child’s daily routine at home. If your child attends preschool or a child care program, ask your child’s teacher to help phase out naps.
Talk with children about what will change and what will stay the same. For example, children may have friends that will be in their new class at school, but they will also get to make new friends. Research suggests that children may adjust better to a change of school when they have the support of a friend. Find out if any of your child’s friends will be in the same class. If not, ask your child’s teacher to put you in contact with another family whose child will be attending the same school and lives nearby.
Encourage children to talk about their feelings about starting school.
When possible, volunteer at your child’s school. You can attend field trips, read stories to your child’s class, and help with special events. If your job prohibits you from volunteering during the day, you may want to use some personal time to volunteer for a special event at your child’s school. Parents who cannot volunteer during the day can help by saving materials for art activities or contributing to the school newsletter.
Promoting young children’s early literacy
To promote young children’s delight in talking, listening, reading and writing, adults need to provide a variety of interesting language experiences.
Children who have reading difficulties in the primary grades often had limited early literacy learning experiences. Children with reading difficulties have less letter knowledge, less sensitivity to the notion that sounds of speech are distinct from their meaning, less familiarity with the basic purpose and mechanisms of reading, and poorer general language ability.
Children who are skilled readers understand the alphabet and letters, use background knowledge and strategies to obtain meaning from print, and can easily identify words and read fluently.
Activities that prepare young children for learning to read emphasize:
Counting
Number concepts
Letter names, shapes, and sounds
Phonological and phonemic awareness
Models of adult interest in literacy
Independent and cooperative literacy activities
Key concepts in children’s early literacy
Phonological awareness An appreciation of the sounds and meanings of spoken words. For example, a phonologically aware child can hear and say rhyming words, divide words into sounds and/or syllables and put them back together again, and recognize that groups of words have the same sound at the start (fish, frog, fruit), or the same sound at the end (dice, mice, ice).
Phonemic awareness An advanced form of phonological awareness. The awareness that printed symbols, such as letters, systematically represent the component sounds of the language. Children who demonstrate phonemic awareness recognize the sound — symbol relationship. Phonemic awareness allows children to “sound out” words.
What adults can do
Be a model of literate behavior for your children: write notes, keep a calendar and daily planner, post lists of food and household needs and children’s responsibilities, introduce new vocabulary words during routine conversation and bookreading, and subscribe to a local newspaper and magazines the entire family will enjoy.
Sing songs, make up silly rhymes, read books, and play with words and sounds every day. Discuss printed text, words, and sounds as “objects” that can be thought about, manipulated, altered and explored. Help children build and use their ever-growing vocabulary.
Provide children with the tools of literate behavior (pens, pencils, markers, paper, envelopes, a stapler, paperclips, stamps, a dictionary, an atlas, telephone books, magazines, catalogues, newspapers, junk mail) and engage in daily literacy activities with your children (write thank-you notes, mail birthday cards, look up phone numbers, find exotic destinations in an atlas, write lists, read books, visit the library).
Suggested books for preschoolers
Reading books is one of the most valuable ways that parents can spend time with their children. Reading to children helps them develop an awareness of the sounds of language, understand that letters represent sounds, and value literacy. The books listed below (title, author/illustrator, publisher, publication date) promote children’s emerging literacy skills through rhyming, repeated patterns and predictability. Most importantly, they are fun to read!

Dr. Suess books
Hop on Pop
The Foot Book
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
Green Eggs and Ham
Conclusion
The preschool years are an active time for young children — their independence and initiative enable them to explore their world in new ways. Parents and teachers have the important task of giving children numerous and varied opportunities to promote their development during the preschool years, including physical development, thinking and learning, expressing feelings, awareness of self and others, and communication. Using the suggestions that have been offered will help to foster a positive, creative environment in which children can thrive.

Speech development of preschool children in the information and educational environment Preschool educational institution
An important task of the preschool educational institution with the introduction of the Federal State Educational Standard is to improve the pedagogical process and increase the developmental effect of educational work with children through the organization of the educational environment for a preschool child. At present, the environment for the development of the child has changed: many new channels for obtaining information have appeared. We live in an age of rapid development of information technologies, which make their own adjustments even in such traditional areas as children’s play and toys, and therefore, accordingly, in the subject-developing environment. The subject-spatial developing educational environment of a preschool educational institution is one of the main means that forms the personality of a child, a source of knowledge, information and social experience. Since it is at preschool age that the foundation of initial knowledge about the world around is laid, the culture of the relationship of the child with adults and children.

Own pedagogical experience “The role of a fairy tale in the speech development of a preschooler”
Author of the article educator: Asyaeva Valentina Petrovna.
Good and evil tales can help to educate the mind. A fairy tale can give the keys to enter reality in new ways, it can help a child to know the world, it can endow his imagination and teach him not to perceive the environment.
D.Rodari.
Raising and developing a child without fairy tales is unreasonable – no one can surpass the wisdom of peoples, the wisdom of millennia. I would like to present to your attention the experience of my work on topic “The role of a fairy tale in the speech development of a preschooler” . It’s no secret that a child enters the world of fairy tales at a very early age, as soon as he begins to speak. From the moment of birth, a fairy tale comes to the baby and remains with him like a miracle. The fairy tale brings up moral lessons of compassion, sympathy, love for all living things, the idea of morality, justice with evil. Great teachers and philosophers emphasize the importance and significance of fairy tales in the life of a preschooler. K.D. himself Ushinsky recognized the usefulness of fairy tales and composed fairy tales for children of all ages. The fairy tale develops the child’s fantasy, is an intermediary between the world of the child and the surrounding reality. Fairy tales are an effective means of speech development. Russian folk tales reveal to children the expressiveness of the language, shows how rich their native speech is with humor, lively figurative expressions.

“Mnemonics – an effective means of developing coherent speech of preschoolers”
Kolesnikova Irina Alexandrovna
The modern educational process requires preschool teachers to take a new approach to their own activities, use the latest forms, methods and technologies for educating, developing and teaching children. The child is at the center of the educational process. Preschool age is the most favorable for laying the foundations of competent, clear, beautiful speech, which is an important condition for the development of the child. Speech is a great gift of nature, thanks to which people get ample opportunities to communicate with each other. Speech connects people in their activities, helps to understand, forms views and beliefs, and renders a great service in understanding the world. The process of teaching speech and the development of thinking constitute one inseparable beginning of a preschooler. After all, a child does not easily name an object, but seeks to describe it, to talk about some kind of phenomenon, event. It is known that the main content of the memory of a preschooler is representations: concrete images of people, natural phenomena, events, objects, their properties, qualities, signs, actions. Representations are the basis for storytelling, drawing, games. Without them, the child cannot learn generalizing concepts, therefore, each of them must have a specific situation. To help children in mastering literate speech and to facilitate this process, I use mnemonics in my work.

As you know, preschool age is a period of active assimilation by a child of colloquial speech, the formation and development of all its aspects: grammatical, lexical, phonetic, in accordance with age capabilities and individual characteristics of children. Throughout the preschool age, the child’s speech is improved and enriched, which turns into one of the conditions for cognition. There is a formation and complication of speech functions: planning, communicative, regulatory, symbolic, expressive. The level of speech development has a significant impact on the success of a child’s education in the future, and its insufficiency leads to complications in communication, affects the overall readiness for schooling, and hinders the acquisition of literacy.

Preschoolers rely heavily on the literal appearance of things as a means of understanding the world around them. For example, if a child breaks her graham cracker into four pieces while her brother breaks his in half, she thinks that she has more graham cracker than her brother because she has four pieces and he only has two pieces. Similarly, a child may begin a friendship with another child because of something appealing that the other child has, such as a pretty dress or a new toy.
There is special emphasis on issues relevant to preschoolers, including pretend play, the transition to school, and early literacy.
As children’s thinking skills improve during the preschool years, they can remember and tell stories that follow a sequence of events and make sense to others. Pretend play is a great way for children to learn and develop skills such as:
For example:
Be sure to follow the child’s lead. Let the child direct the fantasy play experience. Research shows that children are more agreeable and can express their developing independence when adults follow the child’s plan for the play. Examples of adult-child pretend play activities include having tea parties, bathing baby dolls, setting up a restaurant or beauty parlor, and being a librarian or mail carrier.
Transitions from preschool to school involve a shift in caregiver-child relationships and peer relationships — some relationships end while new ones begin. Children often have mixed emotions about this shift, including a sense of sadness about leaving their preschool or child care program, and a sense of excitement and anticipation about beginning school. The ability to deal with these emotions and adapt to these changes is important for a successful transition, which sets a positive tone for children’s adventures in school.
The awareness that printed symbols, such as letters, systematically represent the component sounds of the language. Children who demonstrate phonemic awareness recognize the sound — symbol relationship. Phonemic awareness allows children to “sound out” words.

At present, the environment for the development of the child has changed: many new channels for obtaining information have appeared. We live in an age of rapid development of information technologies, which make their own adjustments even in such traditional areas as children’s play and toys, and therefore, accordingly, in the subject-developing environment. The subject-spatial developing educational environment of a preschool educational institution is one of the main means that forms the personality of a child, a source of knowledge, information and social experience. Since it is at preschool age that the foundation of initial knowledge about the world around is laid, the culture of the relationship of the child with adults and children. 
K.D. himself Ushinsky recognized the usefulness of fairy tales and composed fairy tales for children of all ages. The fairy tale develops the child’s fantasy, is an intermediary between the world of the child and the surrounding reality. Fairy tales are an effective means of speech development. Russian folk tales reveal to children the expressiveness of the language, shows how rich their native speech is with humor, lively figurative expressions. 
The child is at the center of the educational process. Preschool age is the most favorable for laying the foundations of competent, clear, beautiful speech, which is an important condition for the development of the child. Speech is a great gift of nature, thanks to which people get ample opportunities to communicate with each other. Speech connects people in their activities, helps to understand, forms views and beliefs, and renders a great service in understanding the world. The process of teaching speech and the development of thinking constitute one inseparable beginning of a preschooler. After all, a child does not easily name an object, but seeks to describe it, to talk about some kind of phenomenon, event. It is known that the main content of the memory of a preschooler is representations: concrete images of people, natural phenomena, events, objects, their properties, qualities, signs, actions. Representations are the basis for storytelling, drawing, games. Without them, the child cannot learn generalizing concepts, therefore, each of them must have a specific situation.
To help children in mastering literate speech and to facilitate this process, I use mnemonics in my work. 
Such methods and techniques are described as: auxiliary questions, storytelling according to the plan, a sample teacher’s story, collective storytelling, analysis and evaluation of children’s stories, modeling, illustrating stories with children’s drawings.

There is a formation and complication of speech functions: planning, communicative, regulatory, symbolic, expressive. The level of speech development has a significant impact on the success of a child’s education in the future, and its insufficiency leads to complications in communication, affects the overall readiness for schooling, and hinders the acquisition of literacy.
