Preschool

I was told about a website called creative learning that provides throw away motar boards and robes but can't find it. Can you help find the site or recommend something else for a graduation ceremony for 4 year olds?

Next Wednesday is Teacher Appreciation Day at Daycare. I'm wondering what I can make to give them that they would like. I'd like to give them something that says I appreciate them, but I don't have alot of money to work with. Any ideas?

I have a 2 and 3 year old. They know their basic colors, the alphabet, they can count to 10 in english and spanish. How would I go about teaching them to write? I thought that I would first start teaching them shapes, how to draw them and then start showing them how to write the alphabet, would that be the right order? Any suggestions?

My 4 year-old grandson's Pre-K teacher says he has not learned to write his full name or his telephone number or home address and does not differentiate between consonants and vowels , though he can name all letters of the alphabet. Therefore, he may have to repeat Pre-K!
It has been my general understanding that girls develop learning skills more quickly that boys at that age, but the trend averages out as they get older.
My elementary school principal felt that children in the last year before first grade were better off staying home with their mothers (but that was nearly 60 years ago). My mother held me out of Kindergarten (which was optional then) with no apparent impairment in my learning.

My fiance has a 3 1/2 year old boy who does not want to learn. When we try to play learning games with him, he says "see, almost done", and tries to hurry through it so he can sit on the couch or on his bed and stare at nothing. We have several games and movies for him to interact with because his mother doesn't spend any time teaching him, so when he's here, we try to sit aside at least 30 minutes a day to help him learn by using games, flash cards or movies. He goes to pre-school, but it's mostly just an organized play group and he still takes himself away from learning to sit on an adults lap to do nothing. It's getting aggrivating because he's behind and we can't help him because he doesn't want it. He's gotten two screenings and they say that he's extremely behind for his age group and his social/emotional behavior is something to be worried about. We don't force him to sit and learn but we have to figure out something because he's not getting the attention he needs w/ his mom.

My ex wife and I are having an arguement about starting our soon to be 4 year old in pre-K. Her birthday is September 1st. I prefer to keep her back one year since studies show it is better for her emotional and social development to be the oldest in class.

I am having problems finding the studies that support this-- but I am positive they are out there.

Can you show me a link to these studies?

I'm reading the book The Hungry Thing to a four year old classroom at a local preschool I need to include a game, song, science activity... Does anyone have any ideas? The book is about a monster that comes to a village with a sign that says feed me. He doesn't pronounce words correctly when he asks for food, he rhymes them. For example, when he wants pancakes he asks for shmancakes. The townspeople feed him and at the end he flips the sign over and it reads thank you. I need an activity that correlates with the book. Please help.

for example: if I had a picture of a cake and asked them to pick either a picture of a rake, a picture of a shoe, or a picture of a dog and they had to choose the rake because that rhymes with cake...do you think four year olds could do that? did that make sense? please help

i am currently a freshman in college majoring in biology. ive always wanted to do something with kids and am starting to think that being a pediatrician is not for me....however, i would love to be a kindergarten or first grade teacher. can i continue being a bio major and still be a teacher or do i need to change my major? What do you have to do to become an early childhood teacher? Some people say that you should apply to an education program, but is that after you've earned your bachelor's? i'm feeling kinda confused right now, and any advice would help A LOT as i have to sign up for classes for next semester pretty soon. thanks!

I am in college and we are doing a survey on classroom environment. What would you prefer to have in your / your child's classroom? One has suggested a swimming pool. It would benefit the children, teachers and community with lifegaurds, of course.
If your school had the money to fund a specific program, buy new equipment, etc. what would you want them to buy?
