There are 15 students and two adults in this preschool room.

safe. He throws objects in the room, screams and hits other
kids, and cries frequently. The owner of the daycare has
received many complaints from parents who are threatening to
move their kids to another daycare center. Trevor’s mother
thinks that he is “all boy” and will grow out of this stage.
