I think I have forms on every flat surface of my house just waiting to either be turned in or filled out and then turned in or have money attached to them and then turned in. And then there are the forms that have been lost in the shuffle. Those I will get a note home the first week of school asking that they be turned in. Or my kids won't be able to attend school because they aren't turned in. (Not to self: find the papers)
Some tips from NASP (National Association of School Psychology): (click here to read the full article)
Be sure your children are in good physical and mental health.
Review all of the information sent home by the school.
Mark all important dates on your calendar and make arrangements in advance.
Make copies of all health and emergency information for reference.
Buy school supplies early and save receipts for items that you may need to return or exchange.
Re-establish the bedtime and mealtime routines a week before school starts.
Turn off the TV.
Visit school with your child.
Designate and clear a place to do homework.
Select a spot to keep backpacks and lunch boxes.
Freeze a few easy dinners.
