How to use this review

  • Do the review over two or three short sittings. Young children learn best in short bursts with movement breaks.
  • Read each question aloud. Let your child answer by talking, pointing, acting or drawing.
  • Many questions have no single right answer. Look for a sensible, honest response and praise it.
  • Notice which section was tricky, then revisit that lesson's activity. Doing the activity again teaches more than repeating the questions.
Check your understanding

For parents and teachers

Use mistakes to choose what to revisit. Each review section matches one lesson.

  • Can't name anything they're good at, or won't try things alone: revisit All About Me and do the All About Me bag.
  • Grabs, pushes in, or can't think of a fair idea: revisit Making and Keeping Friends and play the kind words ball game and turn-taking games.
  • Can't name groups or community helpers, mixes up natural and human-made places, or doesn't know what community places are for: revisit My Groups and My Community and take a community walk.
  • Doesn't see unfairness, or thinks Indigenous peoples lived only long ago: revisit Everyone Is Different, Everyone Belongs.
  • Says "not fair" only when they don't get their way, uses a whisper or a yell instead of a strong voice, or doesn't recognize discrimination: revisit Standing Up for Myself and Others and do the puppet show.
  • Unsure about recycling, compost or saving energy: revisit Caring for Our Earth and sort the recycling together.
  • Can't name feelings or read faces: revisit Naming My Feelings and play the mirror game.
  • Can't remember calm-down steps: revisit Calm-Down Strategies and make the calm-down toolbox. Practise when calm.
  • Unsure about handwashing, safety steps, medicine or 911: revisit Healthy Habits and Staying Safe. Repeat the safety steps often and calmly.
  • Unsure what to do with a scary screen moment, shares private information, or doesn't know what to do if lost: revisit Feeling Safe Online and In Person and play "okay or uh-oh?".
  • Difficulty balancing, catching, or using scissors: revisit Active Play: Moving My Body. These skills grow with daily play.
  • Mixes up directions, pathways or levels, stretches too hard, or finds careful hand jobs (puzzles, pouring, stacking) tricky: revisit Movement Skills: Where and How I Move and make the tape path.

Every child develops at their own pace. Celebrate effort, kindness and trying again.
