[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - what exactly were you told about why she might get kicked out. What were you told about her behavior. She is obviously doing something that is making her stand out from the other kids - maybe she isn't following directions, maybe she is running around, maybe she is using up a disproportionate amount of teacher time. There is something going on that you need to figure out. Obviously watching a class would be a good place to start. And asking the teacher to talk maybe before class would be better if she has another class immediately after.

Op again.  The teacher doesn't show up more than a minute before class starts, so there isn't a chance to talk.  I observed maybe 50 classes before they switched rooms and it became hard to watch without standing at the door (which they ask us not to do).  The teacher said she wasn't listening and she understood that DD had been taking lessons for a long time but she needed to do a better job listening because it was disrupting the class. This was the first time she had ever talked to me.   I don't think that this is worth all the thought I am really putting into this.  Dd got kicked out of her swimming lessons last summer because she wouldn't go in the water.  Oh well, she just wasn't ready for it.  Maybe the same is true if this.  I'll give it a few more weeks but if the teacher doesn't think she belongs in the class then that's that. [/quote]
