 | Im a stay at home mom and after pressure from a number of relatives to put my son into a pre k group, I decided ok, I will try it. I took him to the place I used to work in college knowing that my old boss still worked there. In the beginning, he loved it, two months later I started noticing last week when I would ask his teachers --how was he today--ok but he didn't want to do an activity. I thought ok so he didn't want to draw or do a project. The next thing I know, I pick him up and he told me started crying when it was time to do an activity--he told me the teacher told him to sit on the rug while the other kids were doing their activities. That night he woke up screaming from nightmares--when I asked him what they were about-activity time in school. He would not go to school the following day--I know I should not give in to him but I thought maybe I can find out more-- it all boils down to activity time. He does not want to go back to this school at all now. I put a call into the teacher today--but they were short staffed due to the flu--I have to call back tomorrow. If any body out there has suggestions, please let me know. This Pre K I have my son in is more like he is already in Kindergarten or 1st grade. Maybe I should put him in one that is more relaxed? I don't know--I just want my son to be happy--considering he will be in school for so many years to come. I think back to when I was his age--we never went to Pre K or Kindergarten, you started in 1st grade. HELP |
