SUMMARY:Busy Bodies: Active Learning for Active Kiddos PLC
DESCRIPTION:This workshop investigates the processing of our eight senses (yes\, eight!) and their role in early learning and development.  When fully understood\, teachers can assemble a variety of sensory processing activities as a toolbox to reach all learners\, especially those that need to move constantly.  Teachers can adjust current curriculum and teaching strategies to include more physical activities\, even when space and time is limited\, including: \n\nProblematizing the environment to keep them busy\nEnergy release activities – heavy work AND mental work\nEnergy calming practices – inclusive of all and individualized\n\nTogether\, we will explore how to create inclusive environments and curriculum that help all kiddos harness their energy and transform it into productive\, meaningful learning experiences.

SUMMARY:Nurturing Our New Generation of ECE Teachers
DESCRIPTION:Nurturing Our New Generation of ECE Teachers \n3 Online Sessions: Thursday Evenings \nFeb 1st\, Feb 8th\, Feb 15th 5:30 – 7:30PM Mtn time. \nDesigned for ECE lead teachers and directors\, this 3-part workshop dives into generational attitudes and shifting ideology in the ECE workforce today.  We will analyze mounting research on Gen Z and apply what we know to current childcare center cultures. Using reflection and deep discussion\, we unpack our current toolbox to identify unproductive biases and attitudes that thwart our efforts to keep good teachers.  We will re-pack our management toolbox full of specific strategies related to new research and work habits\, that will motivate entire teams and cultivate a culture of inquiry\, compassion\, and kindness. \nGoals of this series: \n\nIdentify what ideologies\, attitudes\, and cultures exist in childcare centers that might be contributing to high turnover.\nUnderstand what is needed to nurture and inspire Gen Z so they can blossom and stay in the ECE field.\nList specific strategies that are required in ECE to cultivate new\, passionate leaders that stay committed to the field.  \nDevelop a personalized plan to meet the needs of new ECE teachers in your center.\n\nCLICK HERE TO REGISTER

SUMMARY:Empowerment Strategies that Motivate Problem Solving in Teachers (2 of 2)
DESCRIPTION:Session Two: Empowerment Strategies that Motivate Problem Solving in Teachers \nLife\, as well as teaching\, is a series of problems to be solved; do you have the tools to solve them?  Do your staff have the tools to solve their own problems?  As educators\, we strive to provide each child with a nurturing learning environment that encourages creativity\, collaboration\, and communication\, so children can become good problem-solvers. But how do Directors provide this to teaching staff so they can do the same? \nIn this training\, we explore how ECE leaders can create an environment where teachers are empowered and equipped to solve problems that bog down the entire program\, especially for managers and coaches.  We will explore how to cultivate this culture in teachers using three empowerment teaching strategies that are based in engineering school of thought:  1.) embrace cognitive tension\, 2.) facilitate connections\, and 3.) support risk-taking and failure.   Gather new tools to successfully implement collaborative problem-solving that synchronizes teaching teams and empowers teachers to own their growth and happiness. \nTraining Goals: \n\nLearn strategies to embrace cognitive tension in your teaching staff and move away from rescuing and micro-management.\nLearn how to facilitate meaningful connections using predictable and fair problem-solving protocols that support and encourage teachers to use any resource available.\nDiscover and plan new ways to support risk-taking and failure and move away from perfectionism and control.
