[quote=Anonymous]This is not totally out of the norm for K students who are not accustomed to large classes and the noise. A group of adults coming to talk to you and making demands can be very scary at that age. It sounds to me like the school mishandled the incident. There should not be "adults" coming to talk to him. They should have had one person like the guidance counselor get down on the floor and watch him for safety reasons but give him the space to calm down. Many K classrooms have a "safe space" that's a little set off from the rest of room where kids who are upset or whatever can go to have quiet time. I know our classroom had one and there were maybe half a dozen kids who used it occasionally and it was no big deal. This is pretty standard among teachers who recently got their degrees or certificates. I was told they are taught to create this kind of space when learning how to set up their classrooms. OP is your teacher kind of old or old-fashioned? [/quote]
