throwing rocks at her classmates! (Insert heavy sigh right here) Right as the children are coming out the door at the end of school session the teacher comes to me. NICE is all I could think in my head. (Sarcastically) I am truly horrified for the teacher. Don't get me wrong but Reagan is just such a creative expressionist. OK probably not a word but she expresses herself in very creative ways or maybe some might say aggressive. It only comes straight out of left field though so there is no consistency to her behavior. Oh the horror. I'm upset I don't know how to make you notice so I'm going to throw rocks at you? Could that be what she's doing? I don't know.
So Poor Teacher explains to me that Reagan had a fabulous day playing in the "house center" and at clean up time she did such an amazing job cleaning it all up. She was a perfect listener and the teacher gave her tons and tons of praise throughout this time. Then the end of their session (I wanna say day but they only go for 2.5 freaking hours lol) they all got to go outside and play on the playground. Rocks were thrown and some heads were narrowly missed. Teacher just about peed her pants and Reagan had to have a time out. End of story. This is my Reagan. Is it because she is our 3rd child, lack of preschool, parenting flaws, we just plain suck here. I'm stumped. OR she could be just one of those normal 4 year olds that's confident enough to be herself right away without the shy quiet reserved period of time. Which is freaking the teacher right out because in the conference she had for us she said they don't open up till after Christmas. All the kids are pretty much clammed up till then.
My kid has confidence. I'll give her that.
