Do you discipline children in the classroom?

The teachers are trained to handle normal behavioral problems and consider these issues to be a central part of a preschooler’s learning experience.  The teachers understand that preschoolers struggle with self-control and self-expression and that preschoolers often test rules.  The teachers work to provide a safe and caring environment where children can learn to:

• Identify feelings

• Express feelings appropriately

• Make connections between feelings and behaviors

• Listen to others

• Use problem-solving strategies

  Teachers most commonly use strategies such as problem-solving, redirection, modeling, praising appropriate behavior and ignoring inappropriate behavior to help children learn.  Parents are encouraged to discuss any concerns with the teachers.
