[quote=Anonymous]We also said we were looking at potential schools for our child for the next year (this was for 1st). To go and have a good time and remember to be herself/himself as usual in class. I did do a little coaching on a behavior that we had been dealing with at home because I knew they would be asking some academic-like questions. Our child at the time had a little bit of an attitude if told or asked about something "academic" that he/she already knew. We reminded DC to answer questions like that politely (this was nothing new - we were doing that all the time anyway). We reminded DC that children learn at different rates and are exposed to material differently across schools and families. We highlighted that these new teachers were getting to know everyone and would be asking questions as part of that process. It ended up working out well. [/quote]
