Cockrell Elementary

📚✏️ Future Cockrell Cubs Start Here! ✏️📚

Starting school is an exciting milestone, and there are so many simple things families can do at home this summer to help their child feel confident and ready for success on the first day.

Our Pre-K and Kindergarten Readiness Guide highlights important skills that will help your child thrive, including independence, social skills, early literacy, fine motor development, and math readiness.

The best preparation happens through everyday activities:
📖 Read together every day
🧩 Practice using scissors, crayons, and puzzles
👟 Encourage independence with dressing, packing a backpack, and opening food containers
🗣️ Talk, listen, and learn together
🔢 Practice counting, shapes, colors, and letter recognition

Every small step helps build confidence and prepares your child for a successful start to their school journey. We can’t wait to welcome our newest Cockrell Cubs this fall!

💙❤️ Please review the flyer and spend some time practicing these skills over the summer.
