Important advice
Do not scold for bad marks. It is better to help as much as possible, but the case. Once again, talk, explain what is incomprehensible, come to the teacher with questions.
Do not overload. Additional education is better to postpone, let the child first adapt to the main learning process. The same can be attributed to home duties.
Be in touch. In the new school, it is necessary to immediately get acquainted with the teachers, a class teacher, the parents of classmates, in general, promote useful ties and dating. Your main task is to be interested in how the adaptation is going on, how is the relationship in the team. The child does not always have to share what it bothers, it is better and more correct at first to keep his hand on the pulse.
Cut the time together. Set aside your business for some time and try to be more likely to discuss some problems, and just chat. Your child now needs you more than ever - try to become him the most real friend and establish trust relationships with him.
