It's normal for parents to feel uneasy about their child's enrollment in kindergarten. If we can maintain communication with the teacher, it will help us to understand the situation of the child at school.
I think it's important to pay attention to the following points when communicating with the kindergarten teacher:
1. Regularly checking in with the teacher, and keeping up with the frequency
Generally, if there's no special circumstance, you should communicate with the teacher once a month, which is just the right frequency.
If parents can talk to the teacher on a regular basis, the teacher will naturally pay more attention to the child in order to be able to answer the parents' questions.
If parents leave their child at school and don't focus on regular communication with the teacher, chances are the teacher won't pay as much attention to the child unless the child is particularly good or naughty.
After all, teachers have limited energy and cannot pay attention to all students.
2. Choose the right time to communicate with the teacher
Teachers are human beings, and kindergarten teachers in particular have a hard time and a lot of responsibility for bringing up children. It's best to communicate with teachers during their working hours, so as not to take up their personal time.
Additionally, we can seize any opportunity to visit the kindergarten to participate in activities and have a face-to-face conversation with the teacher. When the activity is over, we can help the teacher to organize the activity place while exchanging information about the children.
3. Prepare questions beforehand
To communicate with the teacher, we can record the questions we want to ask in a notebook beforehand, and chat with the teacher with a purpose.
Don't waste the teacher's time by chatting endlessly. This is a sign of respect for the teacher. It is advisable to limit the time to 5-10 minutes.
4. Respect the teacher, empathize with the teacher
If the child in the kindergarten body rubbed a little skin or beaten by the children, we communicate with the teacher, pay attention to respect the teacher.
First understand the situation, then solve the problem.
Don't hold the teacher accountable right out of the gate. There are some things that teachers do have responsibility for. However, if you think about it differently, we take one child, and all children bump into each other. It's normal for a teacher to have a little accident with so many children.
Normal accidents, we have communicated with the teacher.
If there are special circumstances, we can seek the teacher's advice when we communicate with her.
Our baby is gentle and when he first started kindergarten, there were always kids who teased him. I advised him to fight back. But after talking to the teacher, who thought that hitting him back would only make him suffer more, she suggested that I tell my child that if a child hits him, he should tell the teacher right away.
I believe that teachers are more willing to pay attention and help our children if we seek help instead of accountability.
