As a Kindergarten teacher, this conversation between @adamgrant and @oprah hit home. Research suggests that one Kindergarten factor was linked to students’ success years later…and it wasn’t whether they knew their letter sounds or could count to 100. The biggest lessons we teach are often the ones you can’t measure: kindness, independence, resilience, confidence, problem-solving, self-regulation, and learning how to be part of a community. These are the skills that help children thrive, not just in Kindergarten, but throughout life. That’s exactly why I wrote “Confidence in Kindergarten”. It’s designed to help children build the self-help, social-emotional, and independence skills that make the transition to school feel exciting instead of overwhelming. Because preparing kids for Kindergarten isn’t just about learning letters and numbers, it’s about helping them believe, “I can do this.” 📚 “Confidence in Kindergarten” is available now through Amazon. Comment BOOK and I’ll send it your way or check out the link in my bio.
