Building Resiliency in the Early Childhood Classroom

REGISTER for this class.

There will be three virtual training sessions, each of a two hour duration, that will focus on classroom strategies which help build resiliency in young children, ages infant through Pre K.

The dates are 10/25, 1/4 and 4/14. Registering for the 10/25 class registers you for all of them.

The webinar content is based on the basic principles of Conscious Discipline, a research-based classroom management program that transforms competitive environments into caring school families, and focuses on the creation of relationships between peers. There are three main components of building resiliency that will be put forth in the training session – Attunement, Attachment, and Autonomy. When these three aspects of development are successfully nurtured in children through effective activities and language interactions, children will thrive in the following crucial behaviors:

1. Self-regulation and self-awareness
2. Cooperative problem solving
3. Empowerment and assertiveness
4. Participants will identify some of the “triggers” they encounter in their daily work with children, along with several ways to calm themselves during stressful times in the classroom.
5. Participants will demonstrate the ability to provide assertive direction to children that state clear, positive expectations.
6. Participants will demonstrate the ability to provide children with positive choices.
7. Teachers will be able to use specific language to notice and validate children’s helpful choices.

Zoom link will be sent after registration for the training.
