Back to School  Part 2 -  Children's Book Review










Preparing your child for school – Grades: 6th -8th grade

Upper grade levels –  Middle school – High school

6th grade


Sports: before your child gets involved in any sports check with your child’s physician during back to school physical examination.

7th grade

 
Social Media usage: you can help to avoid potential issues with cyberbullying by monitor and limits all devices.


8th grade


Study habits: homework, organization skills, and study habits, all are key elements to aid children with the development of good study habits!

In helping to alleviate eye, neck and brain fatigue during a homework study time getting up to walk about, 

to stretch will help.                              

 



In summary

A healthy breakfast is not skipping meals, but rather eating healthy throughout the day.

Good dental habits are central 10th – 11th grades because almost all adult teeth are present. Brushing and flossing and a visit to the dentist regularly should be a part of good dental hygiene.

 

Some children will be learning to drive by the high school years. It’s important to note driving is a privilege. Driving and mobile phone usage, such as - texting while driving - is not a good match! Be safe and keep others safe around you!

       



Exercise, physical activity is valuable at any age. Encourage children to get involved in walking, cycling, etc., during school or after-school activities.

A healthy lifestyle now could be beneficial in the future years.

How I Found My Monster Kittens [The New Three Little Kittens] Good read for ages 2-8. By Olexity Starr What a cute, funny story tale with some rhyming connections, its colorful simple yet interesting enough to keep a child listening. The monster kittens are not really monsters looking, but cute - that went outside to play alone without letting the boy in the story know.
