[quote=Anonymous]I agree with PP. Parents should be involved with their child's education and teach throughout the day (or in short spurts) if it's comfortable to them.

I don't get teachers like this. Why not encourage parental involvement? If you don't like the methods, then suggest some that are better.

Parents want their kids going into school feeling comfortable and confident. Many parents see preschool and kindergarten more as social skill building.

It seems that the goals of parents, teachers and administrators aren't always the same.

We explore and play... PLENTY. That's what makes the 5 minutes here and there of writing letters on a chart board fun. It's usually part of the play... what letter am I writing (and kid has to guess letter before I finish it).

It would be nice if there was a way to align your learning priorities for your child with the teacher philosophy as much as the school's philosophy (Montessori, etc.) The teacher's philosophy (which sometimes is like the school ans sometimes not) is way more important. [/quote]
