SUMMARY:Positive Approaches to Learning
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator Angie Kinser: \nApproaches to Learning refer to the behaviors and skills children use to engage in learning. Children’s experiences in early childhood settings can strengthen or diminish children’s positive approach to learning.  Curiosity\, initiative\, persistence\, problem-solving\, cooperation\, creativity\, and focused attention are a few of the approaches to learning children develop through engaging play opportunities such as Invitations to Play.  \nDuring this session educators will learn the importance of children’s positive approach to learning and how children’s engagement directly impacts their success in school.  Educators who attend this session will learn strategies they can use to support children’s development of approaches to learning through positive interactions\, providing an environment with rich open-ended materials\, and invitations to play. \nThis workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Jefferson County Community Early Childhood Council through a grant from the Governor’s Office of Early Childhood. \nNotice: This is an in person class located at 4-C’s new office!   \nLocation: Community Coordinated Child Care (4-C) \n908 S. 8th Street\, Suite 201\, Louisville\, KY 40203 (Map) \nLevel 1 CDA 8  CC 1\,4  Audience-All \n2 Credit Hours \nBy attending a professional development opportunity\, you are entering an area where photography\, audio and video recording may occur.

SUMMARY:Strengthening Families: Knowledge of Child Development
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator Liz Walker: \nHaving accurate information about child development and an understanding of appropriate expectations for children’s behavior at every age helps parents see their children in a positive light and promotes their healthy development. Information can come from many sources\, including family members as well as parent education classes\, or even surfing the internet. Studies show information is most effective when it comes at the precise time parents need it to understand their own children. Parents who experienced harsh discipline or other negative childhood experiences may need extra help to change the parenting patterns they learned as children. Please join us to learn more about how you as an early childhood professional can support families for optimal outcomes for their family and 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.

SUMMARY:Super Saturday!
DESCRIPTION:It’s a Super Saturday! Join us for a full day of training with two tracks to choose from. Get 6 hours of KY ECE-TRIS training in one day! Plus prizes and giveaways! Lunch is on your own\, and we will have a 30 min break. \nLocation: Community Coordinated Child Care (4-C) \n908 S. 8th Street\, Suite 201\, Louisville\, KY 40203 (Map) \nChoose one of these two options. \nOption 1: Art and STEM – 6 hrs – Tickets below\n9:00-12:00 Unlocking the Language of Art – Facilitator Courtney Pearce \nJoin us for an immersive and inspiring session where educators discover how to nurture children’s artistic expression as a powerful tool for communication\, curiosity\, and emotional insight. As children grow more confident with art materials\, they begin to use them as a language to express what they know\, feel\, and wonder. In this hands-on workshop\, you’ll learn how to cultivate the language of art through process-based art explorations and intentional classroom practices. Discover how to thoughtfully set up art spaces\, choose open-ended materials\, and guide young artists without limiting their creativity. Through your own creative participation\, you’ll gain practical strategies to support children’s artistic fluency\, laying the foundation for deeper communication\, creativity\, and critical thinking. Walk away inspired\, empowered\, and ready to transform your space into a hub of discovery and expression. \n12:30-3:30 STEM Senses: Exploring Light\, Sound\, & Smell  – Facilitator Darice Hancock \nIn this playful and hands-on training\, participants will delve into the sensory aspects of STEM\, focusing not on what children touch but on what they see\, hear\, and smell. We’ll explore how light\, sound\, and scent invite children to test ideas\, observe patterns\, and make discoveries. Participants will experiment with simple\, affordable materials and walk away with sensory-rich STEM provocations that support curiosity and engagement across all ages. \nOption 2: Exploring Play – 6 hrs – Tickets below\n9:00-12:00 Patterns in Play: Understanding Schemas – Facilitator Liz Walker \nHave you ever noticed a child repeatedly lining up cars\, dropping toys from the same height\, or wrapping everything up in a blanket? These patterns aren’t random—they’re schemas! In this engaging three-hour training\, early childhood educators will dive into the fascinating world of schematic play. Participants will learn to recognize the most common schemas in young children\, understand how these patterns support development\, and explore ways to plan responsive\, meaningful learning experiences that nurture each child’s natural curiosity. Through real-life examples\, hands-on activities\, and collaborative planning\, educators will leave feeling inspired to observe more deeply\, plan more intentionally\, and advocate for the importance of play in early learning. \n12:30-3:30 Loose Parts Play: Fostering Creativity\, Curiosity\, and Problem Solving – Facilitator Angie Kinser \nIn this hands-on training\, educators will discover loose parts play\, an approach that fosters creativity\, exploration\, and critical thinking in young children. Participants will examine the value of loose parts as tools for open-ended\, child-directed learning and discover how these materials support all areas of development. Through discussion and activities\, educators will learn how to design engaging invitations to play using loose parts\, and how to incorporate these experiences into daily routines. Educators will also collaborate in small groups to design and set up their own invitations to play using a variety of loose parts\, gaining practical strategies they can bring back to their classrooms. \nBy attending a professional development opportunity\, you are entering an area where photography\, audio and video recording may occur.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Checklist: The Invisible Skills of Professionalism in Early Childhood
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator  Liz Walker \nEarly childhood professionalism is often measured by what can be seen\, counted\, and checked off. But some of the most powerful teaching skills cannot be captured on a checklist. This training invites educators to explore the visible skills that are commonly assessed\, such as environment\, documentation\, and routines\, alongside the invisible skills that shape children’s learning every day. Participants will reflect on how nurturing relationships\, tone of voice\, consistency\, and emotional presence influence children’s sense of safety\, belonging\, and ability to learn. \nThis workshop is free thanks to the generous sponsorship by the Jefferson County Regional Collaborative through a grant from the Governor’s Office of Early Childhood. \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. All classes are on Eastern Standard Time. \nLevel 1   CDA 6  CC 3   Audience-Directors \n2 Credit Hours \nBy attending a professional development opportunity\, you are entering an area where photography\, audio and video recording may occur.
