My Moms so worried that autumns teacher won't tell us when something happens, like if she's throwing bad fits at school or hurting herself or miserable and I keep reminding her that I do believe her teacher would tell us because when picking her up the other day her teacher told me its too stressful and overwhelming for autumn to go to the gym with the rest of the school/students to wait to be picked up, one at a time.. so its a long process. Which she's also not good at waiting for long periods of time or standing/sitting in one place for long.. So anyways I think since her teacher told me that, that she'd tell me if anything else was going badly.. Plus I think she'd tell me so maybe I can help fix it to make it easier on autumn and her teacher.

The teacher will definitely address any concerns with you and they should be telling you how the child’s day was or filling out and sending something home. If this is her first time in school it may take her a while to get use to everything. It’s normal for them to feel overwhelmed or to have tantrums. She is still very young and that’s a part of how they communicate. Everything will be fine.

My son is in a similar kind of class that he started the middle of last year after we got set up here. It took him about 3 weeks to really get into the swing of things. I get notes sent home in a folder and an opportunity to speak to his teacher daily because she brings our kids to us. I can also talk to her via an app we can text through. If he so much as falls I get a report about it. I had to finally tell her, “we know about his falling and that’s part of OT” and now we only get reports if he bleeds, which has been only once. They’ll tell you what’s up...
Where we really had issues transitioning was after school . Zay needs time to snack and decompress after his 5 hour day. He’s overwhelmed and the brain needs a break. Most days he needs a nap after school too. I let him take only 90 minutes so he will still sleep at night.
Let your little one gets used to the routine for a few weeks and then let the teacher bring her to you. That may be the best way to get the daily report and she needs to get used to every situation in the book, crowds and lots of other kids being a huge one. It takes time, it’s frustrating hearing the cries or seeing the behaviors but they have to learn somehow. My friend is a psychologist and had this chat with me a few months ago when I was nervous about it all and my anxiety was full force. I have to say, it was the best advice. My son is flourishing and way more independent now. 6 months and he’s a completely different child. It’s a learning process for both parent and child.
My district has tons of parent trainings. One of the subjects is transitions. I’m excited because they’re challenging and I get to learn techniques for free. Look into that as well.
You’ll get through this transition...
That's awesome!! I'm hoping school will help her with a lot of things such as, sharing, social skills, transitioning, etc. She doesn't seem miserable when I pick her up lol so that's a good sign. They sent home A drawing she did yesterday and stamped her calendar in her folder for how her day went. And I just downloaded this app her teacher told us to get and we can talk to the teacher through that. I worry about her self harming but I'm sure her teacher would tell me if it were bad.

Yes this is her first year, pre k and shes autistic so she's in special education/needs pre k. I just worry because she's very anti social so from going from being home with me and her sister everyday to having so many kids around her for 3 hrs a day is a huge change for her. she's having the most trouble with transitions right now her teacher said. Which she's always been bad at. But hopefully this will help her do better with them. And she throws A few fits here and there but not too bad so far. They do send home A folder with a colored stamp each day for how she did but they don't talk to you much... its more of a here give me your kid, bye and here is your kid, bye. Because they pick them up from your car at drop off and usually they put them in your car for pick up, except i pick autumn up from outside her classroom before everyone else gets out so she's not overwhelmed by kids. So I don't get to talk to her teacher as much as I'd like.
@red_carr, do they have an email or a app y’all can communicate on? We have something called class dojo. I can message any of my sons teachers or principal. They also have a direct class room phone number. I message or call as needed to see how my son is doing. My son is bipolar and has adhd so I like to know how his days are going.
@sistersmainpiece that's awesome! We have like A class website thing, we got a paper sent home yesterday about it, I still need to sign up for it. and they have a Facebook page but I don't have Facebook. I need to see what that app is all about that the teacher talked about. Because I'd really like to know how each day went and If there are things she could work on or I could work on with her.
