SUMMARY:Everyday Interactions Matter: Deep and Simple in Early Learning Series
DESCRIPTION:The primary ingredient of quality in early learning settings begins with the everyday interactions we share with one another. These simple and ordinary moments that take place during daily routines form the foundation for connection\, learning\, and growing for young children and adults alike.  \nThroughout this series\, early learning professionals will engage with the Everyday Interactions Matter (EIM) approach through a process of careful observation\, discussion\, and self-reflection. EIM is designed to support early learning professionals\, including owners\, directors\, and educators\, in examining the everyday moments that make up their days and sharing elements of their practice with peers. Through this strengths-based process\, professionals can recognize and build upon powerful moments of connection\, sharing\, growing\, and belonging in everyday interactions.\n \nSession Details \nDate and Time: Thursdays\, January 12 – February 9\, 2023 | 6 – 7:15 p.m. \nCost: $35 \nWhere: All sessions are virtual. \nInstructors: Sarah Grubb\, Allison Robison\, Diana Schwab \nStandards: Seven PQAS hours will be offered. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChild Development and Learning in Context (3 Hours)\nDevelopmentally\, Culturally\, and Linguistically Appropriate Teaching Practices (4 Hours)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister \nQuestions? \nFor questions about the course or credit\, contact Allison Hritz at allison@tryingtogether.org.
