SUMMARY:Everyday Interactions Matter: Deep and Simple in School Age Care
DESCRIPTION:Child care providers in Allegheny County may participate in a free\, 15-hour course\, “Everyday Interactions Matter: Deep and Simple in School Age Care”. \nSessions will take place via Zoom on Tuesday evenings from March 1 to March 29\, at 6:30 – 8 p.m.  Additional self-paced homework will be assigned via Schoology. Registration is available on the Trying Together website. \nReceive Credit\nAll 15 hours must be completed to get PQAS and/or ACT 48 credit. If you are interested\, we encourage you to register very soon! The link below gives details and dates for this course. If you successfully complete all 15 hours of the series PD\, you can use these hours to matriculate into 1 stackable credit at Carlow University. \nCourse Description\nThe primary ingredient of quality in school age settings begins with the “everyday interactions” between educators and children. These simple and ordinary moments that take place during play\, transition\, and daily routines form the foundation for learning and growth.   \nIn this five-week course\, school age learning professionals will engage with the Everyday Interactions Matter approach through a process of careful observation\, discussion\, and self-reflection. Educators will evaluate the impact their ordinary interactions have on child development and the overall quality of programming in their learning communities.  Course experiences offer school age educators the chance to cultivate professional self-awareness and community building.  Through the Everyday Interactions Matter approach\, educators recognize powerful moments of connecting\, sharing\, learning\, and belonging in their everyday interactions with school age children. \nAbout Everyday Interactions Matter\nEveryday Interactions Matter (EIM) is a professional development initiative designed to help early childhood educators learn and grow from their own practice. Through a strengths-based process of observation\, discussion\, and reflection\, educators take a close look at the everyday moments they share with children. Video footage of adult-child interactions serves as the raw material for facilitating professional growth.

SUMMARY:Universal Early Childhood Education:  What Could This Mean for Our Jewish Community?
DESCRIPTION:President Biden’s Build Back Better Framework would provide the most transformative investment in children and caregiving in generations. The Build Back Better framework would enable states to expand access to free early childhood education for more than 6 million children per year and increase the quality of early childhood education for many more children already enrolled. Additionally\, the Build Back Better framework would ensure that middle-class families pay no more than 7 percent of their income on child care and will help states expand access to high-quality\, affordable child care to about 20 million children per year – covering 9 out of 10 families across the country with young children. What could this mean for our Jewish community? \nJoin the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh on March 10 for their virtual event\, “Universal Early Childhood Education: What Could This Mean for Our Jewish Community?” Registration is available on the Jewish Federation website. \nPanelists\nCara Ciminillo is the Executive Director of Trying Together\, a Pittsburgh-based nonprofit supporting the work of early childhood through advocacy\, community resources\, and professional growth opportunities for the needs and rights of children\, their families\, and the individuals who interact with them. She has a Bachelor of Arts in Ethnic Studies from Bowling Green State University and a Master of Education\, Administrative and Policy Studies from the University of Pittsburgh. \nAnna Hartman is the Director of Early Childhood Excellence at the Jewish United Fund and the Director of the Paradigm Project\, a national network that nurtures emerging leadership in Jewish early childhood education. Anna holds a master’s in Jewish educational leadership from Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion and is a doctoral candidate in Jewish Education at the Jewish Theological Seminary. She has participated in three study tours of the renowned municipal early childhood centers in Reggio Emilia\, Italy. A recipient of the Pomegranate Prize\, JUF’s Samuel A. Goldsmith Young Professional Award\, and the Covenant Award\, Anna lives in the Chicago neighborhood of Roscoe Village. \nAdditional Information\nThe Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh seeks to cultivate resources\, connect people\, and collaborate across the community to live and fulfill Jewish values.

SUMMARY:Everyday Interactions Matter: Deep and Simple in School Age Care
DESCRIPTION:Child care providers in Allegheny County may participate in a free\, 15-hour course\, “Everyday Interactions Matter: Deep and Simple in School Age Care”. \nSessions will take place via Zoom on Tuesday evenings from March 1 to March 29\, at 6:30 – 8 p.m.  Additional self-paced homework will be assigned via Schoology. Registration is available on the Trying Together website. \nReceive Credit\nAll 15 hours must be completed to get PQAS and/or ACT 48 credit. If you are interested\, we encourage you to register very soon! The link below gives details and dates for this course. If you successfully complete all 15 hours of the series PD\, you can use these hours to matriculate into 1 stackable credit at Carlow University. \nCourse Description\nThe primary ingredient of quality in school age settings begins with the “everyday interactions” between educators and children. These simple and ordinary moments that take place during play\, transition\, and daily routines form the foundation for learning and growth.   \nIn this five-week course\, school age learning professionals will engage with the Everyday Interactions Matter approach through a process of careful observation\, discussion\, and self-reflection. Educators will evaluate the impact their ordinary interactions have on child development and the overall quality of programming in their learning communities.  Course experiences offer school age educators the chance to cultivate professional self-awareness and community building.  Through the Everyday Interactions Matter approach\, educators recognize powerful moments of connecting\, sharing\, learning\, and belonging in their everyday interactions with school age children. \nAbout Everyday Interactions Matter\nEveryday Interactions Matter (EIM) is a professional development initiative designed to help early childhood educators learn and grow from their own practice. Through a strengths-based process of observation\, discussion\, and reflection\, educators take a close look at the everyday moments they share with children. Video footage of adult-child interactions serves as the raw material for facilitating professional growth.
