SUMMARY:No Waiting! Get Them Shaking! Learning Effective Transition Strategies
DESCRIPTION:No Waiting! Get Them Shaking! Learning Effective Transition Strategies \nI can see it like it was just yesterday…the children are climbing over each other as we help them put on their snow pants\, jackets and boots to get them ready to go outside. It’s a nightmare come true! Wait! This was yesterday! The reality sets in….transitions are HARD! There’s no doubt about it. Whether it’s the infamous ‘clean up’ time\, going outside or coming back in\, moving from lunch to nap time or helping those new children adjust to group care…it’s a stressful time for many of us. It doesn’t need to be. When we take the time to stop\, be present and be intentional\, we can minimize the stress of transitions not only for us but also for the children in our care. Children are not designed to sit and wait\, so we cannot expect them to do so! What can we do to keep children engaged during transitions? To help this be a time of connections instead of directions. To help them navigate their own transitions successfully and with confidence. Let’s get them moving! Let’s get them engaged! Let’s connect. Join me as we fill your transitional toolkit with strategies and activities that are sure to capture the attention and imagination of those little ones who struggle with transitions. We will look at our daily routine schedules to reflect on how they impact our transitional times. And of course\, we will sing\, play and dance with some NEW transitional ideas that you can add immediately to your practice. Let’s do this! \nObjectives: \n\nEstablish an understanding of why effective transitions are important to child development.\nIdentify strategies that support the 3 phases of effective transitions – before\, during and after.\nDevelop a daily visual routine for children to help them with transitions.\nLearn new transition songs\, games and tools to use during transitions.\n\nThings to Keep in Mind: \n\nRegistration closes 24 hours in advance!\nPD funding available to eligible participants.\nThis workshop will be held online through the Zoom platform.\nYou will need access to a smartphone\, laptop\, tablet or computer with audio capabilities to join us.\nA link will be emailed to you 24 hours prior to the workshop. Please click the link 10 minutes before the workshop begins to join in.\nCertificate of participation will be available to registered participants.\nAll registered participants will have 30 days access to the webinar recording.\nE-transfers to be sent to tina@inspiredmindsecc.ca\n\nZoom link is included in your ticket email. Reminder emails will be sent out 24-48 hours prior to event.

SUMMARY:The Third Teacher: Creating Responsive Environments to Support Children's Behaviours
DESCRIPTION:The Third Teacher: Creating Responsive Environments to Support Children’s Behaviours\nChildren experience big feelings and have big actions to communicate these feelings with the people around them. It’s important that early childhood educators create an environment that is safe\, physically\, mentally\, and emotionally\, for children to learn about these emotions and discover ways to express these emotions.  This is where the third teacher – our early learning environments- can help! By knowing what works for each child\, we can create spaces and routines that help them feel safe to explore and express these emotions without negative outcomes. We all understand that this is a learning process for children\, so why don’t we engage in proactive strategies that support them on their learning journey. In this workshop\, we will look at the four key components to creating responsive environments; routines\, transitions\, play spaces and engagement. Since one strategy doesn’t work for each child\, every time\, we will brainstorm a variety of strategies and approaches you can add to your behavioural support toolkit! Let’s look to our environments for help! \nObjectives: \n\nIdentify the important role environments have on children’s behaviors\nIdentify strategies to support four key components of responsive environments:\n\nRoutines\nTransitions\nPlay Spaces\nEngagement\n\n\nReflect on current practices and create action steps to move forward with creating responsive environments.\n\nThings to Keep in Mind: \n\nRegistration closes 24 hours in advance!\nPD funding available to eligible participants.\nThis workshop will be held online through the Zoom platform.\nYou will need access to a smartphone\, laptop\, tablet or computer with audio capabilities to join us.\nA link will be emailed to you 24 hours prior to the workshop. Please click the link 10 minutes before the workshop begins to join in.\nCertificate of participation will be available to registered participants.\nAll registered participants will have 30 days access to the webinar recording.\nE-transfers to be sent to tina@inspiredmindsecc.ca\n\nZoom link is included in your ticket email.
