SUMMARY:SSFC Engaging Young Minds: Providing Critical Thinking Practice for Future Scientists
DESCRIPTION:Very young children are able to think\, attend and remember\, but their thinking\, attending and memory are very reactive. Children need to be able to face the challenges of a changing\, demanding and unpredictable world. To succeed in this arena\, they will require problem-solving and decision –making skills to meet unexpected problems with the ability to compete and thrive in the 21st century. This session is designed to provide early childhood educators with the necessary knowledge of providing a foundation for young children to engage and meet future STEM outcomes. \nPresenter: Romy Allen \n2.0 DCDEE credit hrs. \nClick on the link below to register \nFor details\, link here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/providing-critical-thinking-practice-for-future-scientists-tickets-37874987106

SUMMARY:SSFC  Signing with Young Children (American Sign Language Based)
DESCRIPTION:Effective communication and responsiveness are key components in developing a nurturing strong relationship between young children and the early childhood professionals who educate them\, especially for those children who are nonverbal. Research confirms that children gain control of their hands far before they have control of their expressive language. As early as 8 months of age\, infants are capable of replicating many of these modified “baby signs” to communicate wants or needs. Learning these skills can also decrease common\, developmentally appropriate aggressive behaviors such as biting\, scratching/pinching and hitting/kicking among older infants\, toddlers\, and twos who do not yet have a large volume of expressive language skills to verbally communicate. Participants will be provided a solid base vocabulary of baby signs\, as well as the process by which to best apply these signs to individual age groups during daily routines. Participants will also be supported in identifying prime times that young children are most receptive to learning these signs. \nPresenter: Cara McKeown and Caterine Burke \n2.0 DCDEE credit hrs. \nTo register click on the link below: \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/signing-with-young-children-american-sign-language-based-tickets-37875652095?ref=ecal \n

SUMMARY:SSFC  Strategies to Increase Self Esteem in Young Children
DESCRIPTION:Self-esteem is an important component to almost everything children do. Research indicates that children who develop a positive sense of self are more likely to try new things and work toward reaching goals. Self-esteem is needed life long and we need to remember the important role we play as teachers to enhance or damage a child’s self-esteem. This workshop will address strategies to use in the classroom to enhance self-esteem. We will look at factors that affect children’s emotional and social development. \nPresenter: Gwen Walter \n
