Kindergarten Note and Response #49



Notes Home From Kindergarten
Note 49

Dear Ms. K –

T was not participating after asked several times.  Not following directions in Art.  Not listening to teacher teach.

-- Ms. X






Notes 49 – Response

Dear Ms. X –

When a child only hears criticism from a person it is very hard for that child to continue to listen to that person.  The same is true of adults who only read criticism from a person.  After a while, both the child and the adult will stop paying attention to the critical person.

Kindergarten Note and Response #48



Notes Home From Kindergarten
Note 48


Dear Ms. K –

T is not getting his work done.

-- Ms. X






Note 48 – Response

Dear Ms. X –

T had been out sick for the entire last week.   The fact that he is only two assignments behind at the end of this week shows his remarkable industry rather than otherwise.

Kindergarten Note and Response #47



Notes Home from Kindergarten
Note 47

Dear Ms. K –

T had problems on computer and rubbing marker on carpet instead of using an eraser.

-- Ms. X





Note 47 – Response

Dear Ms. X –

T said the computer locked up on him and bumped him off of his program.  I am not sure how that can be his fault:  He is a Kindergarten student, not a computer engineer.

And I don’t even understand the rest of your note.  Rubbing an eraser on carpet seems like a very strange thing to do; using a marker would actually make more sense.
