[quote=Anonymous]Do not panic OP. This sounds within the realm of normal for a four year old in preschool and your school's approach sounds reasonable and appropriate.

Not all four year olds are ready for preschool and the expectations. Heck some 5 year olds and 6 year olds are not ready for kindergarten or 1st grade and they turn out just fine.

DD had a child in her K class who was young for the grade and was doing the same things your child is doing the previous year. He just could not sit still and follow directions and would throw things. His parents pulled him from school that year and put him in K the following year. When he came back to K the next year he was the star student. Very well behaved, top of the class academically, got along well with peers.

I could tell you the same story about other kids who matured late and looked out of place in 1st grade and then by 2nd they were doing great.

When you have the perspective of time like I do you can see how certain behaviors may be exasperating but not really huge red flags. [/quote]
