SUMMARY:Caring Connections
DESCRIPTION:Interactions that Matter!\nThe comfort of an encouraging smile. The caring reassurance after a fight with a friend. The excitement of co-celebration as they discovery a new skill. How we interact with children has a huge impact on children’s growth and development\, not only their social emotional development\, but also in their abilities to problem solve\, resolve conflict\, and take risk because they feel safe! Children rely on positive\, supportive and encouraging adults in their live to show them they are respected\, safe and loved. This type of interaction doesn’t happen just by supervising\, asking questions or giving direction. It comes from a deep connection between the adult and the child. A connection that takes time to build and takes intentional interactions. Let’s learn some strategies of how to build this connection with ALL children – from the ones we struggle with to the ones who love us the moment they come through our doors.  Understanding what each child needs to feel a connection will help us establish that bond with each child and continue to see that relationship blossom. Connection is key!

SUMMARY:Mighty Transitions
DESCRIPTION:Discovering Transitions that Work!\nOh those transitions! From here to there and back again. They could be a time of chaos or a time of calm – which one do we plan for?! That’s right! Transitions can be calm\, fun and effective if we intentionally plan for them! A planning goes a long way when it comes to helping children transition throughout the day through multiple types of transitions. And since not every strategy works with every child\, we need a whole pocket full of ideas (or a backpack full). So let’s get some ideas stashed away in our back pocket to pull out when we need them the most. During this session\, we will brainstorm\, practice and play some unique transition ideas that will be sure to add some zen and some flavor to your transition times.

SUMMARY:Creating Magical Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Inspiring Early Childhood Environments\nCreating a space that promotes curiosity\, exploration\, discovery and play is not a simple task. Trends change over time…so what’s the latest and greatest in creating an environment that truly does captures the image of the child and children’s play? It’s a setting that focuses on the child\, creates a natural environment for play\, and promotes a sense of belonging\, safety and wellness. Join us as we discuss all the various ways this can happen in early childhood settings. Inspiration can come from a carefully placed potted plant\, to calming lights in a cozy corner to the use of colour to stimulate or calm the senses. Use your own magical touch to create a space that works for you and the children in your care. Not all spaces are the same – but each one is magical!

SUMMARY:Wonderful World of STEM! OSC Training!
DESCRIPTION:Exploration and Discovery Through STEM\, STEAM & STREAM\nSTEM – Science\, Technology\, engineering and Math; STEAM – Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, Arts and Math; STREAM – Science\, Technology\, Reading\, Engineering\, Arts and Math. No matter which acronym you use\, STEM activities are bound to be a hit with children as they encourage problem solving\, exploration\, creativity\, discovery\, trial and error and collaboration! Children are naturally curious and want to try things out to see what happens. So\, it’s up to us to provide these rich\, playful learning opportunities to build on this natural instinct to explore and learn. From robotics\, to demolition and discovery to coding and technology. Let them take the reigns on these activities as we take a step back and move away from teacher demonstrations to child led explorations! \nThis session focuses on facilitating play with school age children in out of school care programs.

SUMMARY:Inspiring Curiosity to Play
DESCRIPTION:Creating Provocations to Play\nHow do we create an environment that extends on children’s natural curiosity and interests in the classroom? How can we introduce new ideas\, based on our observations and our understanding of possibilities for children? What activities can we do that promote play? Rooted in the emergent curriculum approach\, setting up provocations and invitations are a part of how we can create an environment that stimulates curiosity\, exploration and encourage independent thinking. Instead of providing activities that focus on a specific outcomes or learning skills\, we provide provocations to stimulate a wholistic approach to playful learning. In doing so\, we are able to be responsive to the children’s interests\, extend their learning and inspire curiosity to explore. Learn how to showcase these amazing displays to stimulate and build upon your children’s interests and sense of wonder. Become
