My 5 year old's kindergarten teacher sent me a message today, saying my DS was off task during circle time. She said he "kept acting silly". While I know this can be frustrating for a teacher, but can we remember that her students are 5, it was the afternoon on a day they could not have recess due to the cold. What the teacher did in response to my DS's silliness has be upset and not sure how to address the teacher, and I don't want to over react. Since he was being silly and told to pay attention for a second time, she singled out my DS and shamed him by telling him he isn't a big boy who is ready to be in kindergarten, so she took him and left him in the pre-k classroom for a period of time. I feel that this not only shames my son, !75 humiliates him in front of his peers. My DS was upset when he came home because he had to go back to pre school, and 2 classmates said he wasn't as big as they were. I'm not sure how to tell my DS's teacher that I don't want her using those discipline methods with my son. And am I over reacting to this incident?
