Hi,
I wanted to know if anyone has experience teaching in the same classroom as their child. On one hand I can see why it wouldnt be good on the other when hes so small- only 2 maybe it will be good for him that Im right there- it wouldnt be his class id do 3s but they are practically in the same classroom. I have another option to do 4s in a totally seperate room but if its good for him for me to be there I want to plus 3s my prefereance however if its better for me not to I wont....
any advice? what do u think is best for my "baby"?
thanx!!

My mother was my teacher and the teacher for many of my siblings, preschool and kindergarten, higher grades for some of the kids. It worked just fine for most of us, even though the rest of the preschoolers started to call her "Mommy" instead of Morah __! I think the only time she had a problem was when I was in her kindergarten class. So I skipped to first.
IOW, no, I doubt it will be a problem.

My mother was also mine & all my siblings' teacher in preschool. It worked out perfectly fine. The bigger problem was when I was in the class a year or 2 older than the one she taught (2's) and I used to beg her to take me home early everyday because we got out a few hours later. But in her class, it was no problem.

Our community and school are so small that at least half the children are related to, or at least next-door-neighbors with, someone on the staff --if not one of the teachers, then one of the principals or secretaries or the property manager. And, since there is only one class of each gender per grade, placing a teacher's child in a parallel class is not an option. Seems to work just fine. You're "morah" in school and "mommy" at home.
I think I would be the one with the problem. In an effort to treat my child equitably and avoid any hint of favoritism, I'd probably be harder on him than on others in the class. If you can treat your child like all the rest, and not be harder or easier on him than on anyone else, there should be no problem. Your child doesn't know that mommies are "not supposed" to teach their own children.

my sister teaches a two yr old nursery in her house. when my niece was yonger than the playgroup kids, she had a hard time. Niece wanted to do everything the other kids were doing but wasn't really able to. This year worked out better, she was just part of the group. after the first month or so she figured out that she had to share her Mommy during the day and it was fine (of course she's one of 7 so she's kinda used to sharing her Mommy).

I don't think it's a problem for a two year old, however, I would have a problem with it if it were a grade school or high school child.

thanx everyone for your help. sounds like it wouldnt be bad, and I agree I dont think it would be bad but the question is more is it Better if I have a choice for him not to be in his classroom because for many of you there was no choice for me there is. do you think there are benefits to me being with him or not being with him?
