 Welcome to Room 39 class!
In our classroom, we believe that self-esteem is
the critical component to optimal growth in your children. In
order for a child to develop high self-esteem, we focus on
developing the socialization and self-help skills needed to
succeed in other areas of development. But we can’t do this
alone!
Parent education is woven into every aspect of our
classroom, because we know that your involvement
contributes significantly to your child’s success in school and
in life. The guidelines in this handbook provide you with
great ways to start. Thank you for the privilege of learning
and playing with your family!

 ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES
The school assumes full responsibility for your child once they are dropped off and
signed in until they are signed out. So please make sure that we are aware that your child is being
dropped off or picked up. Please do not just leave without someone acknowledging you. Please
call us if your child will be late or not attending for that day, otherwise we will call you within one
hour of your regular drop off time
We cannot release your child to anyone NOT listed on the enrollment form with out
prior approval from you. You need to let me know if someone other than you will be picking them
up, and they need to have a PICTURE ID with them.
 Communication
Each month you will be sent via email a newsletter and calendar. Each week a menu
and our activities/songs/projects will be sent by email as well. Please check your email often for
these items. If you don’t have access to a computer please let me know, and I will print off what
you need. If you need to call me, please keep in mind that the children are our top priority and you
might get the answering machine, I will return your call as soon as possible. Conference can be
scheduled at any time by either the parent or teacher. Keeping the lines of communication open
between us is in the best interest of your child. Letting each other know important information
about your child and family is essential to us providing the best possible care for them.

 Parent Involvement

Parents of Kindergarten students are welcome to visit the classroom

regularly. A calendar is posted in the classroom if you would like to sign up as a
helper. If you have special interests, traditions, or hobbies that you would like to share
with the class, please let me know! There are also other opportunities throughout the
year to participate in your child’s education.
Research shows that children whose parents
pitch in at school have a better attitude and
higher academic achievement. Teachers who
have classroom support do their job better.
So even if your time is tight, squeezing in
some school volunteer work can make all the
difference in your family's school success.
 POSITIVE GUIDANCE TECHNIQUES
Young children need patient, calm, caring adults who can guide them towards positive
behavior. We believe discipline should be used to teach a child. These are some technique
that we use in class, they also work well at home too.
1. Ignoring: Some negative behavior is produced by a child to get attention. It can be stopped
when it does not get the attention desired. We will use this technique unless a safety issue
is involved.
2. Redirection: We offer alternatives to children engaged in undesirable behavior by
presenting a different toy or activity.
3. Verbal Intervention: We explain to the child the inappropriate behavior and show him/her
the appropriate way to handle the situation with words.
4. Logical Consequences: We help the child understand the logical consequence of his/her
actions by removing the object or activity in which the child is engaged.
 POSITIVE GUIDANCE TECHNIQUES (continue)
5. Take a Break: The child is separated from the group to allow him/her to relax and calm
down, and to help him/her not to be influenced by peers. The child will have access to
limited activities and be closely monitored . The child may return to the group as soon as the
negative behavior stops or is significantly reduced.
6. Giving positive verbal rewards encourages acceptable behavior. This reinforces a child’s
good feeling about his/her behavior and serves as an example to the children to act in such a
way as to receive the praise. Asking a child to stop and think about their behavior enables
the child to work at self-control.
