Prepare for Back to School With Books

The first day of school is near (or here).  You can help prepare your child for back to school with books geared to your child’s level.  There are so many amazing resources available to make Back to School a success!

If you supplement your child’s education at home then I strongly suggest the Core Knowledge series called “What Your Child Needs to Know…..” This book starts with What Your Kindergartner Needs to Know: Preparing Your Child for a Lifetime of Learning (Core Knowledge Series) and goes each grade through What Your Sixth Grader Needs to Know (Revised) (Core Knowledge Series).  I used the 1st and 2nd grade core knowledge books when I taught and fell in love with them.  I have the whole series upstairs to work on with my daughters.
