How can I help my child develop social skills for 1st grade?How can I help my child develop social skills for 1st grade?

·16d ago
Hi everyone, I’m a little concerned because my daughter has been struggling with making friends and sharing in kindergarten. She's very shy around other kids and tends to keep to herself, which is hard for me to see from the side. I noticed that she gets upset when it’s time to share toys, and sometimes she will even leave a group activity and look for a toy or something else she can play with by herself. I'm trying to find ways to help her get better at sharing and playing together with other kids, especially before 1st grade. Any tips would be extremely appreciated!!

What should I focus on during the school year to best prepare my kindergartener for 1st grade? She already knows what’s typically expected at her level, maybe even a bit more. I just want to be sure she’s as ready as possible.. Are there any common skills you notice incoming 1st graders often struggle with that I could work on with her? 🙏
