ADAPTING TIPS
		AS TEACHERS WE KNOW HOW HARD IT IS FOR YOU TO BREAK AWAY FROM YOUR CHILD BECAUSE WE SEE THE SEPERATION ANXIETY IN YOUR CHILD.  PARENTS:  HOW TO COPE WITH YOUR CHILD CRYING FOR YOU 1.  THE 1ST THING YOU WANT TO DO IS BE CALM.  THE HYPED UP YOU ARE THE MORE YOUR CHILD WILL CRY FOR YOU BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT MAY BE WORKING AND YOU MAY TAKE THEM HOME 2.  EXIT THE BUILDING.  BY YOU STAYING IN YOUR CHILDS SIGHT IT IS WORSENING THE SITUATION BECAUSE CHILDREN  IN SCHOOL WHO ARE HAVING TROUBLE LETTING GO ARE TAKEN CARE OF BY OUR STAFF.  WE RE-DIRECT THEIR THINKING AND JOIN THEM IN A NEW ACTIVITY TO TRY AND HAVE THEM THINKING ON A DIFFERENT TRACK. 3.  CALL THE SCHOOL TO HELP YOU THROUGH.  EVEN THOUGH WE MAY SUGGEST YOU LEAVING TO HELP YOUR CHILD GET USED TO PRESCHOOL, WE DO ENCOURAGE PHONE CALLS TO YOUR CHILDS TEACHER TO SEE HOW THEY ARE DOING, HOWEVER WE DO NOT SUGGEST TALKING TO THEM BECAUSE IT COULD TRIGGER THEM OFF AGAIN. 4.  DO NOT BABY YOUR CHILD IN THE MORNING.  EATING BREAKFAST IN SCHOOL IS AN INDEPENENT FUNCTION, YOUR AM TEACHER ASSISTANT WILL HELP YOUR CHILD WITH THIS.  YOUR CHILD MAY HAVE AN INTENDANCY TO GET OVER WELL WITH YOU,  WE KNOW IT MAY BE HARD BUT PLEASE KEEP YOUR CHILD IN SCHOOL NO MATTER HOW MUCH IT HURTS.  YOUR CHILD WILL NOT GET USED TO SCHOOL WHEN YOU "RESCUE" THEM BECAUSE YOU FEEL SORRY FOR THEM.  KEEP IN MIND THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE LET GO WHEN PUBLIC SCHOOL COMES AND THIS ACTION CANNOT HAPPEN THERE, SO WE SUGGEST YOU STAYING STRONG AND AS SAID IN NUMBER 2 EXIT YOUR CHILDS SIGHT IMMEDIATLEY. 5.  CHILDREN WHO ARE NEW TO DAYCARE WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN IN DAYCARE OR DIDNT PLAY WITH A LOT OF CHILDREN ARE GOING TO BE OVERWHELMED WHEN THEY COME TO SCHOOL BECAUSE THERE IS SO MUCH INVOLVED WITHIN THE DAY.  PLEASE DO NOT WORRY ABOUT YOUR CHILD, WE HANDLE CHILDREN WHO HAVE A HARD TIME COPING WITH THIS EVERY DAY.  OUR JOB IS TO GET YOUR CHILD HAPPY AND ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT COMING TO SCHOOL, WE PLAN A GREAT SCHEDULE WITH ACTION PACKED DAYS OF FUN. 6.  DONT THINK YOUR CHILD WILL GIVE YOU A HARD TIME EVERY MORNING BECAUSE USUALLY A CHILD WILL FADE THIS BEHAVIOR OUT WITHIN A GOOD 2-3 WEEKS.  BE PATEINT. 7.  ENCOURAGE YOUR CHILD TO LIKE COMING TO SCHOOL.  TALKING AT HOME ABOUT SCHOOL WILL HAVE A POSITIVE OUTCOME FOR YOU AT DROP OFF TIME BECAUSE YOU CAN SAY "OK, REMEMBER WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST NIGHT, YOUR GOING TO DO A GREAT BIG ART PROJECT TODAY FOR MOMMY/DADDY AND I CANT WAIT TO SEE IT"  THIS KIND OF ENCOURAGMENT WILL GIVE THE CHILD SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO COMING TO SCHOOL FOR. 8.  MAKE A BIG DEAL.  YOUR CHILDS ART AND LESSONS WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU EACH DAY.  RECOGNITION OF YOUR CHILD ACCOMPLISHMENT ARE A GREAT POSITIVE REINFORCER.  IT GIVES YOUR CHILD CONFIDENE TO DO MORE BECAUSE YOU HAVE APPROVED OF WHAT THEY DID.
	IN CLOSING I HOPE THESE FEW POINTERS WILL HELP YOU AND YOUR CHILD COPE FOR THERE EARLY EDUCATION CHILDHOOD PRESCHOOL.  WE TEACH CHILDREN EVERYDAY AND WE WANT TO HELP YOU IF YOU EVER HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ALWAYS TALK TO YOUR CHILDS TEACHER ABOUT THEM.  YOU AND THE TEACHER WILL WORK TOGETHER TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO HELP YOU OR YOUR CHILD.
