  1. READY? Set. GO!!! Racing up the Ladder of Education Kindergarten Readiness What can Parents do?

  2. Give many chances for your child to draw and print using markers, crayons and pencils. Be sure to keep lots of paper around for those creative moments!

  3. Use building blocks to show form, color and groups. • Point out different shapes in your house, as you travel, in a store. A stop sign is an octagon, a price tag is a rectangle, the traffic light has circles. • Talk about the world and things in it, like spring comes before summer.

  4. Play games that require taking turns and paying attention, such as children’s board games with easy-to-follow instructions.

  5. Encourage children to talk about feelings. Share books that explore emotions.

  6. Read aloud to your child DAILY. Ask questions about the story, or guess what might happen next. Use different voices for characters to make the reading interesting.

  7. Choose books and activities that are fun for both of you. Look for simple concepts (letters, numbers, shapes, and colors), easy plots, rhyming language, and nice pictures.

  8. Show your child many ways in which writing is used—signs, menus, lists, recipes, grocery store, street signs. Ask for help in finding letters and words.

  9. Use games (for example, pretend to be a mail carrier) to teach the child his/her address and phone number. Play listening games with verbal clues and directions (I Spy…).

  10. Write or make up stories together. You can start a story, and your child can finish. -Or take turns. If you write it down, have your child draw pictures for the story.

  11. Sprinkle word games throughout your day that help your child hear differences in words— • rhymes • names of things that start with the same letter • compound words.

  12. Be a good example. Let children see you reading the newspaper, magazines, recipes, anything! As well as writing… a grocery list, letters, notes, etc.
