"I knew the boys intentions and the fact that the two had come to an understanding. However, the teacher only observed the behavior and assumed the worst". I agree with this. This happens all the time at my preschool. Especially when I work with toddlers. Working with toddlers, it's always hard to ask them what's on their mind. Moreover, because they can't speak that well at that age. As a teacher, I always have to talk to the child what happen and see what the problem is.
