Description
Examining and reflecting on everyday moments through the lens of Early Childhood Education.
By stepping back and reflecting on everyday moments and interactions with children, you’ll develop a refined sense of how to support young children. These ideas, practices, and invitations are based on theories that form the foundations of Early Childhood.
Rooted in the knowledge of Child Development, Child Psychology, Childhood, Early Years Relationships, and Developmentally Appropriate Practice, you’ll be invited to reflect on how your words, actions, and thoughts directly impact children and your relationships with them.
Whether you are currently a parent or educator, or in the process of becoming either, this course will give you the space you need to become an active and essential part of children’s lives. The unique approach of focusing on everyday moments gives you experience that is both, contextualized and broad in scope. With the tools you’ll develop in this course, you’ll be better equipped to begin and thrive in your relationships with young children.
