Crying at Drop-Off: Tips and Strategies for Teachers

Показать описание
Crying at drop-off can be a real issue on the first day of school, the first few weeks of school, and at random times during the year.

In this video, I share with you some tips you can use and put in place BEFORE the first day of school, and strategies to use when you are in the moment and beyond. And I will share my tried and true strategies and methods for calming the fears of both kids and parents.

Preschoolers cry for a variety of reasons, the number one being anxiety. Being in a strange place with lots of strange faces and away from mom, dad, and familiar caregivers can be very scary for 3-5-year-olds. Couple the normal anxiety a new situation brings with a developmental heightened awareness of the world...and you've got a recipe for crying kids!

When you are armed with some great strategies and tools, even the toughest situations can become manageable!

Have a great first day...but for now...enjoy the end of Summer!

What do you suggest for center time if you are a full day PreK program? Would you have free choice centers 2x per day? For both literacy and math time.
