HUGS!!!!
Some things that helped with our transition:
Make sure to 'catch' them doing something right -no matter how small, praise and give small rewards as much as possible. With my youngest especially, once she starts to get in trouble she can spiral into more and more trouble - but if we can catch her doing something right we can often get her on track to doing more things right. Ask the teachers to try and 'catch her doing something right too.
Advice that my mom gave me over and over and over. Focus on one thing. Pick the one thing that is most important to improve and focus on that, when that gets better, then work on something else. If you stress about 5 million things they you don't even notice the things that do get better.
Another thing that helped us is modeling the behavior. Not just saying do this - but showing it. Play school - pretend to do what she does, (possibly with her being the teacher), then go through it again and do it the 'right' way. You may find out that her perspective on what is going on the in situations is . . . skewed. With my youngest we do this for lots of situtations, doing dishes, brushing hair, walking dog, etc etc etc
