Discuss ways that school is like a job
It's not always clear to young children why adult family members hold jobs. Talk to your child about your reasons for having a job and the responsibilities it involves, such as regular attendance and completing work on time. Then, discuss the ways that being in school is like having a job: like you, your child is counted on to show up, work hard, etc. This teaches that school is an important daily responsibility.
