Question: My son will soon begin prechool, and I vi^ant his adjustment to be a smooth one. What can I do to prepare him for this new adventure? Answer: There are several steps you can take to ease your child’s entry to preschool. 1. Take your child to his new school. Talk to him about his teacher, what his school will be like and what his daily routine will be. 2. Talk about where you will be and what you will be doing while he is at school. Express to him that you know he will miss you, and you will miss hirn—but that you will pick him up every day after lunch. 3. Read books to hinn about going to school. 4. Write a story with your child (he dictates, you write) about going to school. 5. Try to have a ritual leave- taking. Never sneak out. That breeds distrust. 6. If your child is experienc ing anxiety, try to say good-by firmly, but lovingly. Reassure your child as to when you will return, and then leave.

However, you may need to stay with him until he feels comfortable in his new surroundings and is able to play. Since each child has his own timetable, some children may take longer for this to happen than others. 7. Some regressive behaviors like thumb-sucking, sleeping and eating problems may sur face. Since feelings of anxiety are perfectly natural and normal to have upon beginning school, accepting those feelings and helping your son work through them will enable him to feel a sense of accomplishment and control. 8. Know in your own mind that you are providing your son with opportunities that would be impossible to duplicate in a home setting. Your son’s pre school will enable him to play with his peers in a safe and emotionally supportive environ ment. It will also provide a developmentally appropriate program of active exploration and varied purposeful experien ces under the direction of a qual ified, knowledgeable teacher. Your questions are invited. Please address all inquiries to: Teacher Tips, 6500 Newhall Road, Charlotte, NC 28270. Lubavitch of North Carolina has recently purchased 4'/4 acres of land on Sardis Road in southeast Charlotte. The land will provide immediate use of the two existing buildings on the property, with part of the grow ing preschool moving on site and also for administrative offices. The move will allow for the accommodation of the constant growth at Lubavitch, especially with the expansion of its Day School and Preschool. The purchase was made pos sible by the generous support of several Jewish families in Char lotte who recognized the need for adequate space for Luba vitch and appreciate its activities in Charlotte. Lubavitch of North Carolina was established in November 1980 as an education center for the Carolinas. It became a source for Jewish programming not only for Charlotte but for communities all over the Carol inas. In 1986 Lubavitch moved to the Armstrong House, which sits adjacent to Shalom Park. There the Preschool and Day School flourished with growth not only in quality but in quantity as well. As the need for additional space became evident, it was decided to add modular build ings to the existing building. In the past year it was clear that Lubavitch would need a permanent home to accommo date the growth of the school along with its many programs. The board of directors decided to look for a parcel of land that would enable Lubavitch to fill the needs of the growing pro grams. Lubavitch Day School and Preschool currently have over 90 children enrolled. In addition, the Lubavitch Talmud Torah has over 60 children attending its religious school. That is over 150 children on a regular basis. Lubavitch also holds Friday night and Shabbat services at the Chabad House. It will move the Sunday morning services to the new location. Plans for the development of the new property are on the drawing board. It is the hope of the administration, faculty and board of diretors of Lubavitch that the new developments will further enhance the quality of Jewish life in Charlotte and the Carolinas.
