Assessing 2 year olds
Involving parents in children's learning
This workshop investigates the benefits of the early home learning environment, the barriers to parent participation and a whole range of information sharing techniques to get parents actively involved.
supporting Positive behaviour
why should kids have all the fun?
Our workshops are very learner-centred and have a range of individual, paired and small group activities which encourage collaboration. There are always opportunities to be creative and reflective and - perhaps more importantly - to network with like-minded professionals and have a good time.
Our passion is for "freestyle" outdoor learning, where kids can be as creative and as inquisitive and as noisy as they like. We like our adult learners to be the same.
Many educators are new to working with 2 year olds. This workshop focuses on baseline assessment upon entry, the 2 year old progress check and understanding the needs of 2 year olds, especially those who are considered most vulnerable and disadvantaged.
This workshop examines why young children misbehave and presents a range of strategies that help us to help them to overcome everyday struggles.
Seamless transitions in early years explores how we can support children's transitions through sensitive planning and preparation and through partnership with parents.
The possibilities of training we can provide are endless so please, do feel free to let us know what you need.
