[quote=Anonymous]Today I dropped my preschooler in his classroom instead of at the door and his teacher invited me to stick around for morning circle.

While all the other kids sat down and participated in morning circle, my DS was running around the classroom, grabbing things and dropping them on the floor. I tried to get him to go sit down but that just escalated things further and he’d start throwing himself on the ground or throwing toys.

I’m so demoralized. I knew he had struggles and I knew he was behind but I haven’t often seen him with a group of his peers. He is so, so, different from them.

This is an inclusive preschool but the other kids seemed a lot more advanced behaviorally. DS is the youngest in the class, but still.

I will of course reach out to his teacher to discuss. One idea I had was to ask if our nanny could join him in class for a few days, weeks, or months to help enforce him participating. Our nanny has the greatest success of anyone at getting DS to comply.

Can anyone say anything encouraging to me? What should I be doing? DS already has an IEP and this is a public preschool with a mixed classroom.[/quote]
