Kindergarten: the small section, how's it going?
The entrance to kindergarten is a key step in the life of a child. Although every school and every class have their own rituals, there are common trends in all small sections. At this age, parents are allowed to accompany the child until class, and stay a few minutes time to say goodbye or discussing a little with the teacher if necessary. In general, do not extend that time too, because the more last farewell, the more they can be difficult to live for the child (and parents!), Especially during the first weeks after school starts. In many classes of small section, there is a small daily ritual: the child lays his blanket in the tray comforters, he dons booties and indicates its presence by sticking on a table a small cardboard that bears his name. After the parents leave, the various activities of the day begin. In general, each morning is reserved for a particular activity: Monday is drawing or painting on Tuesday, sport on Wednesday, read ... A ATSEM (specialized territorial agent nursery schools) is to assist the mistress in activities, but also take children to the toilet regularly. In some classes of small section is mandatory pee break every hour: a key ritual for children who are just beginning to acquire cleanliness. After lunch, or not taken in the canteen, children have a rest. In small section, they have at their disposal a dormitory where they can sleep. Everyone can rest time he wishes and waking is staggered, depending on the sleep needs of each child. Then it connects on the activities of the afternoon (if time permits) and / or extracurricular activities.
In small section, the child has the right to bring in his blanket and possibly his pacifier. Which, in some schools, is no longer possible from the middle section. During this first year, do not hesitate to offer your child to leave his blankie time to time at home: the compulsory separation of the following year will be easier to live. Also be aware that at this age, children can attend school only half-days: a good transition for the youngest children, those who have not yet mastered completely clean, or those who still have a little trouble to get used to life in society. Finally, know that you have every right not to put your child in the classroom. But always be sure to tell the school and not to abuse it because your child needs to have the same rate as other to integrate more easily.
In small section, activities are varied. In particular, they aim to develop the autonomy of the child, but also socialization. Many activities are thus made into small groups of 4 to 6 children. The emphasis is on visual arts (drawing, painting, collages ...) that allow the child to develop his motor skills. Children also learn the notions of time (day of the week, seasons ...) and space. They also begin slowly learning letters and numbers. Nursery rhymes, stories and songs designed, they, to develop his language.
