i'm a new graduate and it's really tough. my coworkers expect so much from me since i just graduated but what they don't understand is 2 yrs of college doesn't show the whole picture of how it is to work in a daycare! on top of working with children and coworkers, I had to deal with parents too!
Do you think it's worth it?
I've cried so many times at work already and I've been working for just a few months.

What number should a preschooler be able to count till before kindergarten to not fall behind? What about being able to write alphabets, or simple Math? Should they be able to add and subtract before kindergarten? Spelling and reading? Colors and shapes?

I currently live in GA, and I am very dissappointed in the schools for children with special needs. Their structure is horrible!

My question is what state in the USA, has good schooling for children with special needs?

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

how much stuff should my 4 year old know by now... she knows her alphabets already (memorized and can write it out), she can do simple additions now like 1 plus anything... worry that she might be behind her age group... what do they usually teach in kindergarten?

thank you for your answers in advance.

I have a preschool class made up of 19 four year olds. Most of them are good about laying down for rest time, but there are a couple of kids who insist on moving around, bothering the others and making as much noise as possible. It's hard for me to keep up with because I have one student who absolutely needs me to lay next to him. He requires one on one attention for rest time because he's more rambunctious and aggressive than all the other kids, however is relatively easy to get to sleep if I'm with him. There is another teacher assigned to the room, but she's not around much of the time so I have the class to myself a lot. We have relaxing music that we play during that time and for most of the kids it helps. Any hints you may have about how to get these 2 or 3 kids to lay quietly when everybody else is trying to sleep would be helpful. Thanks!

My son has been going to preschool when he was 2 till 3, I’ll be quitting my job and won’t have the money to pay for his tuition. Do you think he’ll fall behind if he doesn’t continue with preschool and just start kindergarten when he’s 5? My husband has never been to a preschool and he’s still smarter than I am even though I went to preschool. Even though my son learns a lot of conversational skills for the past one year, he learned most of his alphabets, colors, shapes, foreign language and numbers from me instead of the school. He gets sick 2 times a month from school and need to stay home for a week or so to rest. We still need to pay the full time tuition even though there’s about a week per month when my son is sick and absence from school. He’s tuition is about $750 a month. Is preschool really that important?

Hello,
I work with a hearing impaired child. Does anyone know any good sites online that have sign language pictures that are not just of the alphabet. Thanks

I am trying to develop simple, no pressure learning activities for my just turned 4 year old. She knows all her capital letters and about half of the small ones, can count to 20 and knows all her shapes and colors. She won't color much beyond a scrible and can't write or trace. We have been doing tracing activities by holding our hand over her hand and "helping her." She does get easily frustrated. We only do school about 90 minutes a day (1st year homeschooling to prepare for the plunge into Kindergarten) and that includes story time, music, art and a 15 minute recess all of which she really seems to enjoy, so we really only have her at the desk working for about 15-20 minutes a day with paper. Her only real delays are language (she rarely talks more than 2 and 3 word phrases) and writing. She refuses to use scissors but does use the gluestick. I would love suggestions that would promote learning without going over her head or trying to make her do something she isn't ready to do.
