SUMMARY:The Relationship Driven Classroom
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator : Lisa Branstetter \nNow more than ever\, as educators and as a society\, we are seeing an alarming rise in behavioral problems: bullying\, stress\, anxiety\, low self-esteem\, and lack of empathy. How we learn to express our emotions\, manage our feelings\, and deal with the emotions of others are key factors in learning\, success\, our growth as individuals\, and the impact we have on others. In this session\, participants will learn how young children are watching and absorbing how we\, as their key socializers\, are acting\, reacting\, responding\, and expressing ourselves\, as they develop their own social and emotional skills that will support them throughout their lives. We will discuss how emotions are at the core of all we do\, impacting not only our emotional health and behavior\, but also our physical well-being. For both children and adults\, the ability to manage and regulate emotion is critical to every aspect of our lives. And we will learn techniques to support healthy brain development through positive\, consistent\, and responsive relationships starting from birth. \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 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 2 CDA 3 CC 1  Audience-All \n2 Credit Hours \nBy attending a professional development opportunity\, you are entering an area where photography\, audio and video recording may occur.
