How important is parent involvement in pre-school? Do you volunteer in your child's class? Have you taken time off of work (if working) to go and read a story to your kid's class? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

It is of course that parents play an important role in children’s preschool days. I’m too busy with my work to go to my daughter’s class, but I find some other ways to accelerate my daughter’s interest in studying, preparing her for primary school. I ordered some cute math and reading exercises of 1 grade on beestar.org. There are 2 exercises every week respectively. These exercises aren’t quite difficult, and they’re fine for preschool kids. I find my daughter loves them very much, and she is always so excited when she gets the ribbons. My daughter will enter the primary school next semester, and Preparing ahead of time will make her ease to deal with the curricula. Lisa [ Reply | More
