Surf’s Up workshop for pre-K and kinder parents

The first day of pre-K and kindergarten has passed, but everything about school is still new for the district鈥檚 littlest learners. And it鈥檚 still brand new for many of the parents, too. It鈥檚 not just the young students who are learning lots of new things 鈥 parents are also learning how to support their children in this new stage of life.

But unlike the students, the parents don鈥檛 have teachers to guide them.

Until now.

色窝窝无码一区二区三区鈥檚 early childhood learning department held its first workshop for pre-K and kinder parents to help parents help their children have a successful year at school and at home.

鈥淲e believe in the power of school and community partnerships, and we understand the importance of extending the teaching experience beyond the classroom,鈥 said Dr. Jackeline Orsini, 色窝窝无码一区二区三区 director of early childhood learning. 鈥淧arents play an essential role in their children’s education, and a solid and close partnership between schools and parents enriches a child’s learning experience.鈥

The workshop 鈥 Surf鈥檚 Up: Navigating Pre-K and Kindergarten Together 鈥 offered a series of workshop classes for parents and caregivers all taught by early childhood learning experts in the 色窝窝无码一区二区三区. Topics included developmental milestones, how to provide emotional support, developing routines, what parents of pre-K and kinder students need to know and even potty training.

鈥淚t was a great experience,鈥 Orsini said. 鈥淲e connected with our early childhood families in a very different way. The event allowed us to deliver a more personalized experience with topics that parents had many questions about. Families stayed until the end, they all left with resources and good information and many left with prizes.鈥

After the classes, parents and caregivers had a chance to spend time networking and getting to know each other.

鈥淒uring the networking session, many of the parents expressed their appreciation for being provided a place to learn, connect with other families and have the opportunity to become a partner in their kids’ educational journey,鈥 Orsini said.
