Make sure that the classroom is maintaining an accurate daily attendance.
Each child should be signed-in when they arrive in the classroom and signed out when they exit the classroom. Complete a name-to-face count of the children frequently and before exiting the classroom. Complete a second name-to-face before the classroom door is closed to ensure that all the children are present and accounted for. Of course, the name-to-face sheets will only work if they are accurate. If attendance sheets are not accurate the chances of a child being left behind or missed placed will increase.
If you are walking down a hallway and you are alone with the children, it is best to walk behind the children so that you can always see them. If you are alone request an additional staff person to help you by escorting the children from the classroom to the next destination. Having an extra person during transition times will help with issues that may arise such as the child that needs additional attention, the child that walks slowly, the child that is a runner, or the child that is easily distracted, and may wonder off from the group.
Do not allow the children to leave the classroom unattended (without adult supervision)
When children are allowed to leave the classroom without supervision to go to the bathroom, to go to the drinking fountain, or to wash their hands. They could easily leave the area and it would be minutes depending on what other things are going on in the classroom at the time before anyone notices that the child is missing. Children are curious by nature and many things will capture their attention causing them to stray away from where they were supposed to be and what they were supposed to be doing. Keeping this in mind is most important. Because as an educator of children you will never allow children to be left alone. This will ensure that the children are always supervised.
