For my kinders I have them do more stuff than my littles.
My kinders, most will be able to read easier reader books before leaving. We pratice writing more, they are taught to sit at a table and chairs for at least 15 min doing a solo activity. We do worksheets for writing, cut, glue, and pAste things with very little help.
I subscribe to the mailbox. Com and use a lot of their books to teach. As well as zoo phonics.

I spend at least 20 min a day solo with each kid helping them read and write.
I also ask the parents to read with their child every night and we do a reading reward program. Then two months before school starts we start home work just to get everyone used to the idea. We take two weeks off of learning before school starts.
