SUMMARY:Who has the Power?
DESCRIPTION:Have you wondered if you have the power or if the child has the power? Have you ever seen toddlers become clingy and want their independence at the same time? Have you seen preschoolers insert their power in social situations but still seek an adult for comfort? These behaviors can be challenging and hard to navigate at times. This training will discuss how children are discovering the power they have and how difficult that can be for them with their peers and for the teacher. Participants will focus on learning the development behind the behaviors and how to scaffold their learning for optimal development. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training.

SUMMARY:Strengthening Families: Nurture and Attachment
DESCRIPTION:This training will provide ECE educators with knowledge about the importance of nurture and attachment from the Kentucky Strengthening Families model. Research shows that babies who receive affection and nurturing from their parents have the best chance of developing into children\, teens and adults who are happy\, healthy and possess individual-level protective factors\, such as relational\, self-regulation and problem solving skills. When the parent-child relationship is strong\, a family will thrive under any condition and  abuse would be less likely to occur. As ECE providers are in contact with parents on a regular basis\, it is important to recognize\, model and support positive interactions for optimal outcomes for the families that are in our community. \nThis workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Kosair Charities Face It Movement. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training. This training will be conducted via Zoom\, and you will be required to participate via video and audio through a computer\, phone\, or tablet. \nLevel 2   CDA 4 CC 5  Audience-All \n2 Credit Hours

SUMMARY:Why is Center Time so Important?
DESCRIPTION:Center time is such a vital part of the day where children are concerned – how they are set up\, the amount of time spent in them\, and the number of children allowed inside them. Something to think about: Do you have time limits\, or limits to the number of children you allow in the centers? How do you end a child’s play in a center when it’s time to transition to a new activity? Do you use bells or timers? Do you have them leave for another center before they are finished? Or do you allow them the time they need to complete what they are working on. This is such a big part of a child’s work and needs to be given full attention too. It also frees you up to do those most important observations that you need to make time to do. Please bring your favorite table activity to the table as there will be time to play. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training. This training will be conducted via Zoom\, and you will be required to participate via video and audio through a computer\, phone\, or tablet. \nLevel 1   CDA 1\, 3  CC 1\, 4   Audience-All \n2 Credit Hours

SUMMARY:Strengthening Families - Knowledge of Child Development
DESCRIPTION:Accurate information about child development and appropriate expectations for children’s behavior at every age help parents see their children and youth in a positive light and promote their healthy development. Information can come from many sources\, including family members as well as parent education classes and surfing the internet.

SUMMARY:Reflecting on Anti-Bias Education in Action: The Early Years
DESCRIPTION:4-C is excited to share a powerful and deeply profound film about anti-bias education in early childhood. The 48 minute film\, Reflecting on Anti-Bias Education in Action: the Early Years\, is inspired by the work of educators implementing anti-bias education for young children seeking a more just world. View the film on your own time and then join us for a debrief of our collective learning with featured speakers and the film’s director. Please join us\, along with Nadia Jaboneta\, Brian Silveira\, and John Nimmo\, for a reflective dialogue and deep dive into the work of the featured educators. \nAnti-bias education places diversity and equity goals at the heart of everything we do in early childhood.

Let’s discover what we can do to strengthen the voice of children and create a more just world. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training.

SUMMARY:Ready\, Set\, Play!
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for ways to support children’s diverse play?

SUMMARY:Strengthening Families: Social and Emotional Competence of Children
DESCRIPTION:Social and Emotional Competence of Children will help you understand how to support children in learning how to positively interact with others\, self-regulating their behaviors\, and effectively communicating their feelings – all of which have positive impacts on their relationships with family members\, other adults\, and peers. Challenging behaviors or delayed development can create extra stress for families\, so early identification and support for both parents and the child are critical to keep children on track. It’s never easy to start these conversations\, and it can be hard to find the right resources. Join 4-C to discover some talking points\, local resources\, and more! By the end of the session\, you will feel more confident in understanding social-emotional development\, and in your ability to refer families to needed resources as challenges arise. \nThis workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Kosair Charities Face It Movement. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training.

SUMMARY:The 5th Annual Heart Centered Teaching Virtual Institute - Planting a Seed of Care: Day Three
DESCRIPTION:Adventures in Risky Play: What is Your Yes?\nGo to the heart of risk-taking and children. As parents and educators working with young children\, we all have boundaries and feelings around what risky play should be allowed. Examine the cage of boundaries that we have created for ourselves and our children. Challenge each other to rattle our cage and discover where the lines are movable. In our role as educators and caretakers\, when we allow children to play and confront risk on their own terms\, we see them develop\, hold their locus of control and make choices on how to navigate the bumpy terrain of a situation. What better teaching tool for life is there? \nFeatured Speaker Rusty Keeler \n\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nClick here to learn more about the Heart Centered Teaching Institute.\nJuly 20\, 2021 Day One: Keynote Speaker Kelly Ramsey – Get tickets \nJuly 24\, 2021 Day Two: Featured Speaker Nadia Jaboneta – Get tickets \nJuly 27\, 2021 Day Three: Featured Speaker Rusty Keeler – Tickets below \nAttend one day for $10 or all three for $25.

SUMMARY:Strengthening Families Series - Parental Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Parental Resilience is the belief that families have the courage to get through stressful times and navigate a crisis. Our parental resilience has been tested and pushed to its limit over the past year. From NTI to working from home\, our families have been demonstrating a tireless commitment to their children and the workforce. Let’s discuss what each of us can do to support families and recognize this courage. 4-C hopes this session will examine your understanding of resilience\, which is not an innate gift that one receives at birth but instead is a skill we can all develop with intentionality. By the end of the session you will be able to define resilience and will be able to apply concrete skills that support the development of resilience. \nThis workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Kosair Charities Face It Movement. \nNotice: This is an online class.  Please make sure you include a valid email address when registering and that you have internet and email access at the time of the training. This training will be conducted via Zoom\, and you will be required to participate via video and audio through a computer\, phone\, or tablet. \nLevel 3   CDA 4  CC 6   Audience-All \n2 Credit Hours
