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.

SUMMARY:Engaging Families to Better Understand the Benefits to Play Based Learning
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator: Liz Walker \nIt’s important for the educator to help parents understand that play is a valuable and purposeful part of a child’s learning and development. By engaging in play\, children are able to explore and make sense of the world around them\, develop important skills and knowledge\, and build social connections with their peers. As educators\, we carefully plan and design activities that align with children’s interests and abilities\, while also promoting their learning and growth. So\, while it may look like the children are just playing\, they are actually engaging in activities that are intentional\, purposeful\, and meaningful.  \nIn this session\, participants will talk about various ways they can communicate the importance of Play Based Learning and how to answer many of the families’ questions and concerns for how this type of learning is not only preparing children for kindergarten but for their entire life as well.  We will discuss how to incorporate this message through newsletters\, blogs\, pedagogical documentation\, and family meetings. \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 4  CC 6\,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.

SUMMARY:Safe and Healthy Children are Ready to Learn
DESCRIPTION:Facilitator: Courtney Pearce \nPhysical health and well-being are dependent upon children and families having access to nutritious food\, shelter\, and resources. Children need access to places to play and exercise to be healthy.

It is vital that early educators understand how to support children who are dealing with distressing moments in their lives. This session will give educators an introduction into how to offer concrete support in times of need\, provide guidance on what trauma is and is not\, and offer play as the solution for healing\, health\, and connection.  \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. \nLevel 1   CDA 1\,4  CC 2\,6   Audience- All \n2 Credit Hours \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) \nBy attending a professional development opportunity\, you are entering an area where photography\, audio and video recording may occur.
