Child's First Days at School

Recently one of my relatives' kids started to attend preschool, I was inspired by the idea of having young kids prepared for education at such early age. As much as it was a pleasant experience to be hanging out with friends and peers, the learning wasn't so much fun and neither was the environment.
Through the courses that I'm learning, I was constantly thinking to myself: How is it that we prepare children for school and encourage them for the idea while we unconsciously do everything possible to make them hate it? In other words I was reflecting on myself and other teachers, asking myself how can a teacher make such unhappy environment and experience fun and interesting, and so I've started developing  an ongoing list of what to do, what not do to students on their first days of school.
1. You must always keep in mind, that children coming to school are not evil, once in a lifetime, you was that kid who cried for waking up so early in the morning, so try to empathize with these kids
2. Most of the kids are not brought up in a hostile environment, you must teach children how to cope with others and through cooperative teaching methods you can do both: make learning fun and enjoyable and also make the environment friendly.
3. You must never try to take a parent's place, YOU ARE NOT THE KID'S PARENT, you are a teacher, kids might even like you better than their own parents but only if you act your role out, Remember this is not a competition and you are not running for Mr. popular contest, your role is to be the best link you can to allow students and children to transfer what they learn to their homes
4. You must never favor one student on another, this is most likely to cause children to hate school, hate their friends and even hate themselves.
5. You must always think of ways to engage parents in student's learning as it forms a smooth transition between school and home, and makes it easier to accept school more.
The list is still ongoing, and if you like to add something write it in the comments below, hopefully it would inspire preschool teachers and children's teachers at the ages from 3 to 9-and even more-to be more responsible for how they teach and who they are teaching.
