Re: Any Nursery/Pre-K Teachers out there?
Don't coddle the criers....be caring but not too much - that will encourage them to keep going, and it isn't fair to the rest of the kids. Also remember that EVERYTHING takes 100 times longer than you think...things go SOOOO slow until they get the routine down...which takes a while. Good luck! I taught pre-school for 3 years and truly loved every day of my job!

Yes, don't give in to the criers. Be nice but don't overdo it.
You will be great!!

Good luck! I have been doing it for 11 years now...and I still love it I have to admit.
I have the young 4's and I agree with whats been said. Be kind and caring but dont coddle. Focus on routine and rules for a couple of weeks. Let them get to know each other and you as well. Do small group activities. You will be fine..if you need anything, you can always fm me!
