SUMMARY:Tickets for Kids Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Tickets for Kids and the Sto-Rox Library announced the discussion dates for their new collaborative book club. The book chosen by their group is: “Evicted: Poverty and Profit in the American City” by Matthew Desmond. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize\, this book was also the One Book One Community choice of the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Public Health. \nIf you would like to attend\, RSVP to Jennifer Gray by email (jgray@forstorox.org) or phone (412.771.1222). Parking is located in the parking lot on the side of the building\, PNC parking lot after banking hours\, or on the street. \nDiscussion Dates\nDiscussions will be held at the Sto-Rox Library on the following dates: \n\nDecember 10\, 2018: 4-5:30 PM\nFebruary 11\, 2019: 6-7:30 PM\nApril 8\, 2019: 6-7:30 PM\nJune 10\, 2019: 6-7:30 PM\n\nAbout the Book\n“Evicted” by Matthew Desmond describes the plight of poor families who\, for want of a few dollars\, are forced to move from their homes\, apartments\, or trailers. An ethnographer\, Desmond shares the intimate vicissitudes of his subject/friends as they struggle to make ends meet while negotiating a bewildering system of slumlords\, public agencies\, law enforcement\, and courts\, a system that seems almost designed to reinforce a downward spiral of poverty. The consequences of eviction are especially felt by mothers with young children\, whose development is jeopardized by substandard housing\, low-quality neighborhoods\, and poor nutrition. \n*Information provided by Tickets for Kids Charities and Pitt Public Health*

SUMMARY:100\,000 Books Campaign: Free Book Fair
DESCRIPTION:United Way’s 100\,000 Books initiative is giving away new and gently used books to support your students’ developing reading skills.  A variety of books are available for various age groups\, although this year’s selection appears to have more in the pre-k to 3rd-grade range. \nTo qualify\, your program must use a mentor – reader model. This event is first come – first serve\, so show up early. Bringing boxes is recommended. Register here. \nWhat is 100\,000 Books?\n100\,000 Books builds on research that demonstrates the importance of connecting a caring adult or older student with a child.  This mentor model has been shown to have a significant impact on the life of a child and will be the primary model that 100\,000 Books uses to support reading skills development.  Mentors (teachers\, librarians\, youth workers\, caring adults\, older students…) will reinforce reading skills through one time and on-going read-along opportunities that will help kids to build this critical love of reading. \nQuestions\nIf you have any questions\, please contact Tanya Baronti at tanya.baronti@unitedwayswpa.org or Joe Welsh at joe.welsh@unitedwayswpa.org.

SUMMARY:Play
DESCRIPTION:Part 1: Is There a Difference? Children’s Authentic Play Experiences vs. Play Based Classroom Activities:\nThis session will define and discuss the variations of authentic play\, playful experiences and play based activities that could potentially be offered within early learning settings. Participants will engage in resourceful discussions as well as complete independent activities that focus on providing more than just “free play” or teacher planned\, play-based activities. K1.8 C3 \nPart 2: Learning to Play\, Playing to Learn: Encouraging Play Within Early Childhood Classrooms:\n“Play acts as a mechanism into courageous\, creative and rigorous thinking in adulthood.” (T. Bruce\, London Metro University\, 2013). The benefits of children’s play can be life lasting\, as long as the experiences are developmentally appropriate\, positive and engaging. This course discusses children’s play and the role of play in early learning settings. Participants will take part in varied individual and group discussions and activities that focus on the definitions\, developmental mechanics and functions of play as well as become familiar with and brainstorm new strategies for encouraging play within children’s earliest classrooms. K2. 14 C1 \nPart 3: Loose Parts: Using Everyday Items to Enhance Children’s Creative Play:\nLoose parts are open-ended materials found\, bought or upcycled (ex: acorns\, hardware\, stones\, aluminum foil\, fabric scraps) that children can move\, manipulate\, control and change within their play. Loose parts are alluring and beautiful. Natural or synthetic\, they capture children’s curiosity\, give free reign to their imagination and empower creativity. This session discusses the importance of offering experiences and activities that highlight the usage of “loose parts” within the early learning setting. Participants will discuss strategies for stocking\, storing and providing loose parts within their settings. Sample activity ideas and learning area implementation strategies will also be brainstormed. K2.8 C2 \nPart 4: Loose Parts:\nInspiring Play with Infants and Toddlers: Infants and toddlers are researchers that are fascinated by the properties of objects and how things work. They explore materials with all of their senses and delight in cause and effect relationships. It is important for teachers and caregivers to provide open-ended materials (loose parts) that allow infants and toddlers to be in control of their inquiries as they gather and learn information about their environment. This session discusses the value of loose parts\, the need to meet the safety\, feature and functional needs of infants and toddlers and now to relate loose parts to the play-action characteristics of infants and toddlers. K1.7 C2 \nMeets the following Keystone STARS Performance Standards indicators: (EC. 3.4.1) \n  \nPlay\nThis course is a four- part series lasting 12 hours\nMonday\, January 7 – Monday\, February 4\, 2019 \nRegister by Friday\, January 4 at Noon. \nFor more information and to register for credit\, visit pakeys.org. \nDownload the complete list of Trying Together professional development course offerings for October 2018 through March 2019 here.
