Dear Parents of the Teddy Bear Room (4-year old room). Over the last two centuries‚ there have been major changes in early childhood education.

The ratio was 4:18 on the day of the observation. There were three teachers‚ one speech language pathologist‚ and 18 students. Also one teacher is fluent in Spanish and can serve as a translator if needed. I would consider the number of students to be restrictive.
