The first lesson in the first class is one of the most important events in the school life of the child. To ensure that the child has a correct attitude towards learning, the teacher and parents should make maximum efforts. The teacher's task is to hold the first lesson in the first class so that each child feels self-confidence, and also cause interest in learning. The task of parents is to prepare the child for the first lesson in grade 1, and after consolidate positive emotions, and smooth out negative ones. And if the teacher has experience and knowledge in this area, many parents do not even suspect how important it is that the first lessons in the first class passed for the child without stress and did not cause fear in front of the school.
