Case: Caught Red Handed
In my Kindergarten class I have an area with various toys for students to play with during their free time. I noticed that one little boy, we will call him Drew enjoyed playing with the match box cars. I only had a few and noticed that they kept going missing. Now, I thought they were somewhere in the classroom and they would turn up but in the mean time, I went out and purchased a few more boxes of cars. Now, when Drew was leaving I went to give him a hug goodbye and noticed his pockets were full. I asked what he had. He refused to answer. His mom took the match box cars out of his pocket. I spoke to Drew and said that I just bought those cars for the classroom and they had to stay in the class. The parent said jumped in and said I was mistaken and they are his cars.. ( they are not) ..and became angry at me. Fast forward, now I have no cars in the classroom because they all "disappeared"... Help?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As the other student mentioned I would show a receipt to prove they are yours. You can also, as I have seen in some classrooms, that the students must right down all the toys that they bring with them everyday. This can show the parents that this is all the brought with them today and those toys are yours. |

Comments: I agree with this and would do the same thing. I might even make them sign their name in and out before and after playing with a toy. I can only imagine how frustrating it would be to buy new toys for the classroom and just have them go missing/stolen. |

Comments: Yes, show the receipts to the parent to prove that the cars are yours and since this keeps happening I agree with having the students right down the toys they played with. |

Comments: While Drew may have taken the cars, this response is a bit too much. You can not expect to have quality relationships if your classroom policies say that you do not trust your students or their parents.Simply buy a few more cars, paint a bit of bright nail polish on the bottom and there will be no question as to whom they belong. |

Comments: I believe that this would get the parents upset. I think the teacher should get new cars and label them that way if this were to happen again her name is on them. She could also after play time check all toys are there before the kids leave. |

Comments: Keeping track of what every kid brings with them can be very difficult because kids hide things in their pockets and other places. Labeling toys you purchase for the classroom can be an effective method. |
