“We made it through a really tough first month with tears, attitudes, unwillingness, not listening, not obeying the rules and especially, too much talking and not enough sitting in seats when asked to,” the note starts.

“We work on this every day at school, but we need help from home, too. We realize kids don’t want to sit and would rather talk and play when they want to; but that’s not how school works.”

The note goes on to claim that preschool is supposed to preparation for “big school” and it’s not acceptable that some of the kids can’t sit still and colour.

“Please, work five or ten minutes each day with your child on this and you’ll see improvement,” the teacher wrote.

“We realize it’s a fast paced world and parents work, but the adults in the house have to be in charge and help the kids to understand this.”

The note then goes on to say that parents should talk to kids about the importance of getting on with their classmates and that “once we pick up the toys that we don’t get them back out again, because we are done playing and going on to learning fun things.”
