My son’s preschool teacher shared this with me. I wanted to share it with all of you. Education and learning are super important, but so is our children’s emotions well being. Just some food for thought.
“Dear Parents,
Don’t stress about schoolwork. In August, I will get your children back on track. I am a teacher and that is my superpower. What I can’t fix is social-emotional trauma that prevents the brain from learning. So right now, I just need you to share your calm, share your strength, and share your laughter with your children. No kids are ahead. No kids are behind. Your children are exactly where they need to be.
With love,
All the teachers on the planet Earth”
