What is the most important skill a child develops in preschool that helps them best excel academically in kindergarten?
The new year is finally here, 2015, and along with that many new challenges and experiences are awaiting. We [seniors] have faced our first challenge of the year and have finally finished second lesson presentations and are now just that much closer to our actual 2-hour!
Putting aside all the stress and anxiety of our second presentation I actually really enjoyed the whole process of finding my first answer for my EQ: Fine motor skills are the collective skills and activities that involve using the hands and fingers, which are a predictor of achievement involving common neuronal wiring, experience-dependent learning, and direct classroom learning.
So now that I explored a type of physical skill I now want to learn more about a emotional/social skill that may affect a child's ability to communicate with others that may have an impact in the way the succeed academically in later years.

| In my last research check I found this article that helps parents understand their child's issues with social skills and what can be affected because of that.
This is something I really want to know more about and I hope will be a second answer to my essential question. In the meantime I will be looking up some books that discuss what a lack of social skills can do to a child academically and the long term effects.
