If you’re a kindergarten-going child, you probably know that the beginning of this school year is anything but sweet. Its not uncommon for kindergarten teacher to share their experiences of nervous and excited parents walking through the door. For the kids, its the start of the new adventure of formal learning, and everyone involved including teachers and parents alike wants to get it perfect, or at least most of it. There is an unwritten rule that kindergarten teachers are expected to be fun, structured, disciplined, and full of compassion. Kindergarten teachers are passionate about what they do and theyre honored to be a part of every students educational journey. But underneath that steady, comforting smile, most parents are in a state of oblivion about some things that teachers have.
This article sheds light on some of the things every parent should know about kindergarten teachers. Lets get started:
They Know What They Are Doing – To parents, kindergarten may look like childs play, but without a bachelors degree, you cant be a kindergarten teacher. Some teachers hold a masters degree and above, and that number is soaring. Kindergarten teachers have a very particular skill set which theyve acquired over years of training and teaching. There are certain times when teachers are unable to meet what they want with their own resources, and they reach out to the experts for assistance. To help the student learn more effectively it is common for teachers to tailor their instructions and teaching methods. The point is kindergarten teachers are experts in their fields and they all want the same thing the parents want: the best for the child.
Your Child Is Listening – This is something most of us seem to know all too well but ignore. Your child listens to everything you say and they observe everything happening around them. Whether youre arguing with your spouse, the profanities youre uttering, the gory scenes of the horror flick youre watching, and so. Be rest assured that your kids have seen and heard it all and wont be reluctant to share it especially when their teacher is reading a story about a magical unicorn saving a princess and how they lived happily ever after. So, to benefit the childs teacher and their peers, and most importantly, for the good of the kids, be extremely careful of what is happening in their environment.
Dont Judge Us And We Promise Well Do The Same – Kindergartners are amazing storytellers. When they tell a story, they dont always every detail, so they blissfully fill in with their own details. This happens in the classroom. Your sweetheart will gladly share everything that has happened in the classroom and about us as well. Not everything is right, of course. So lets make a promise: do not judge us for the occasional disruptions in the classroom, and well promise not to judge you when your kid tells us about the creative language you said when the driver cut you off when driving home last night. Deal?
Your Child Is Not Perfect – Five-year-olds are perfect. Theyre strange beings, and yes, theyre supposed to act that way. Theyll eat crayons, lick their friends, and forget to go to the toilet. Theyll shout, throw tantrums, hit other kids, and say mean things. Sure, this doesnt mean the world will end tomorrow, but it is imperative to acknowledge that these things are not okay. So, if your child did something that isnt okay, please dont call and apologize every time. Kindergarten is about learning and getting acquainted with new things and, at certain times, the kids do things that dont work out. When your kid is stuck with some retribution at school, by no means, we have done it because their teacher isnt fond of them or loves them any less. If your child steps out of line, we promise we arent judging your parenting skills. Our goal for your child is to learn to be the best they can be and if that leads to them some mistakes along their way, be it.
We Are All In This Together – Lets be honest: When we discipline your kid, by no means we are attacking them. When we are advising you about something, dont assume we are judging you. Teachers love to teach and love your children. We arent exaggerating when we say that we plan the whole summer to make the school year fun and enjoyable for the kids we havent met yet. We miss the children that have stolen our hearts. We wont forget the kids that have moved somewhere else and we will love them forever. It is true that the love and compassion we have for your kids is incomparable to the parents have for their own kids, but never question for a moment that we dont have a special place in our hearts for your kids. And last but not the least, we will dream for, make plans, and strive for whats best and right for every child in our classroom every year.
