What should I expect from Preschool

deleted_user
Hello,
My daughter just started a new preschool. IT is interesting to me that 4 of the 7 kids are leaving to go to other preschools.I am not sure what to expect from a preschool. They are leaving becaseu they are nto happy with what the kids are learning in the class. I met with the teacher today and she seems to be doing ok. She need more literacy exposure for the kids. I decided that I a m going offer her advice and try to help her along instead of pull my daughter aout for now. I hope that this is the right decision. I am stayting at home with my sone becasue he had an unexpected head injury and I wnat him to have time to heal .He is only one. I do not want to push my daughter academically, but i taught kindergarten and I know it is not a joke and they expect so much from them.
I offered the teacher some suggestions and she was open to them. I am going to continue to do so. I am not too sure that she has a degree in education, but I am not too concerned becsue degrees do not mean that they will be good teachers.
Oh yeah another thing is the teacher is not a warm and fuzzy teacher and my daughter says that she does not like her. My dauighter does nto wnat to give her hugs or bring her surprises. I am torn on what to do. Shoudl I ignore this or what?
Thanks for your advice on this.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.
