updates on LO from school

in Pre-School and Daycare

DD started at an in-home daycare and we loved them. I would get little updates a few times a week on what they were learning, how she was doing, stuff like that. We moved a few weeks ago and now she's in more of a class room setting. I see the papers/drawings she brings home, but I don't know what they're learning right now and I don't even know if she still naps during the day.

I was just wondering what others have been through. I don't want to seem like the needy mom that needs updates all the time, but I just feel like we pick up & drop off and that's it. No communication and I just don't get the same feeling at this school as I did at the last school.

Thanks

    Have you asked the teacher and/or director for a general idea of the days and weeks? It seems odd that there wouldn't be some sort of touch base, even if only a weekly schedule of learning plans and such.

    Yeah, I would ask the teacher or director. We get monthly lesson plans on what  they're working on as well as the art projects they will be doing.

    I agree with the others, talk to the teacher or director.  My kids' teachers post lesson plans at the beginning of every week.

    At my younger DD's daycare based preschool, we get a daily sheet.  Outside of when/if she napped and for how long - the information on the sheet is pretty basic of what the class theme is and a little tid bit or 2 about what they did that day and what was served for meals.  Really not much info at all.  DD moves to the PreK class next week and the sheets are a little different but I have a feeling I will get the same basic information.  My older DD is ending a PreK program at the elementary school next week (younger DD will be in it next year) - we do not get a daily sheet or anything.  I only know what happened in the day by the things DD tells me or if I ask her teachers at pick up how her day went.  At both schools, they do have a white board outside the classroom and they do a brief write up on the day there - way more detail than I get in the daily sheets.

    In home is not school, it is daycare. At my DS preschool we never get anything except their work is sent home on Fridays.
