Intro to Infants and Toddlers

Dear Life Long Learners,
I am excited to announce that for our second session we have two special presentations predating our Intro to Infants and Toddlers. Reflections on the recent Montessori and Pikler trainings will be shared by Montessori Directress Maria Devera, GoAEYC Board member and ECE teacher trainers Heather Porteous and Susan Bernstein. Come Saturday afternoon you will have an introductory understanding of the Pikler® Approach, Educaring® Approach, and Montessori Approach to infant toddler development and care as understood by Maria, Heather and Susan, along with a basic overview of the history behind these three approaches and their founders. As the study group continues over the next few months, you will be given the opportunity to hone your observation skills, advance your knowledge of child development, refine your care and teaching methodology, come to understand the child’s point of view as well as the parenting journey, and learn from other experts in the field of early childhood education.

 

If you haven’t received emails about this studygroup you can join our mailing list and look at past emails (http://bit.ly/1XojIlo ).

– Ms Bernstein, Facilitator
