[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it confuse you OP?

A class for 3 year olds can still be a class where kids are expected to listen.

Seeing as you haven't been watching you don't really have any idea what your daughter has been doing. The teacher is in the classroom - she is seeing it. I would talk to her more and find out what the problem is. [/quote]
I was confused because prior to before Christmas her behavior was completely acceptable-- both by her then teacher's standards and mine.   Her old classroom was near the monitors and I watched every class from last March until the beginning of January.  Her behavior was no different than the other kids, so it seems strange that she's being singled out now.  The things I have seen that I know would have annoyed me as a teacher like jumping in line or not standing perfectly straight weren't sources of concern for her old teacher.  It's not like dd is crying or running around like some of the other kids-- or at least she wasn't with her old teacher.  
The teacher isn't really available outside if the class-- DDs class is from to 9-9:45 and her next class starts at 9:50.  Maybe she had been meaning to talk to me the past couple of weeks and didn't have time .
So the reason behind my original post was I thought it was strange to threaten to kick a preschooler out of a private class that is only 45 minutes long and once a week if the kid isn't being dangerous (hitting other kids or the teacher) or overtly disruptive (crying inconsolably, refusing to participate, being destructive or running around everywhere).  Apparently the standards of behavior for a three year old are much higher than I thought.  Good to know.[/quote]
