Re:Happy First Day of School - 2006/09/02 10:00 After my daughter got home from school yesterday, I asked what she did during recess. She did hang around with the bunch of girls but all she did was following them around.

I got a call from my daughter's teacher late yesterday afternoon. She talked to me for about half an hour.

At first she didn't understand what I was talking about. During free time yesterday, she had seen my daughter playing with the girl that is giving her the problems. I told her that she will - if it is one-on-one and no one else is around. But if there are others - my daughter is left behind.

She came up with the idea of working on relationships in the classroom. She is going to start with my daughter, then add her friend, then add some of the other classmates too. Afterwards, make small groups of the kids. In the groups, the kids will be working on communication skills with each other, how to socialize when there are a bunch of kids, and not leaving anyone out just because they are more kids around. She said that she might even do it during a lunch period so the kids get used to having a conversation within the group.

I was glad that she is taken the lead to do something about it. She was very glad that I called & later told my daughter about it. At first she didn't like the idea that I called her teacher but now feels better about it.

Thanks!!!!!
