When a child and their family have a smooth transition to school, it creates a precedent for future successful transitions and therefore has a positive impact on educational success. This video by the Chantier montréalais Transition vers l’école discusses issues such as the factors that foster a successful transition to kindergarten.

This video was created to raise awareness among parents of young people who work while going to school about the importance of healthy school-work balance. Partners can invite parents in their network to watch the video and discuss it with their child.

In collaboration with French-language educational consultants and a librarian, the Projet Partenaires pour la réussite éducative en Estrie has developed six reading activities for elementary school children and their parents. The aim of these activities is to highlight the essential role played by parents in developing their children’s love of reading. Teachers are invited to initiate these activities in the classroom at a time of their choosing. The worksheets are all completed at home, to encourage family exchanges and enjoyment.
