SUMMARY:Strengthening Families: Knowledge of Child Development

SUMMARY:Language of Art: Open-Ended Explorations for Preschoolers
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator Angie Kinser: \nAs children become more skillful with art materials\, they can use them to communicate their understandings\, emotions\, and questions.

Teachers will participate in a hands-on art experience to better understand how to use open-ended art explorations to support children’s fluency in the language of art which they need before they can use the art for communication and critical thinking. \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 2\, 8 CC 4 Audience-Preschool/Family Child Care \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: Concrete Support in Times of Need
