My DS (4.5) plays with 2 other boys at preschool and they are regularly getting into trouble, and being separated, leading DS to be sent into the next door class (there are 2 morning classes at this school based preschool).
The 3 boys are not a good influence on each other, particularly one who hits other children, likes to play "killing" games. DS is by no means an angel, is quite defiant and often telling the teacher No! when asked to do something. They had set up a strategy for this which had been working (rewarding him when he complied with a request), but lately its the three boys together which seem to be the problem.
DH does the morning drop off, and the childminder the pick up, so I'm not there to speak to the teacher, and we don't always get a reason for being sent next door. As I'm not there, I can't see how the teacher is handling it, and am reluctant to be seen to be telling her how to do her job if I offered a suggestion.
Any ideas for how to handle this? I don't want DS to get tarred as badly behaved (as the defiance had been improving). The boys will start reception in September - I'm hoping (expecting?) the school to put them separately in each of the three intake classes, but don't know that yet.
Any insights or similar experiences would be helpful x
