1.) Registration for FREE April Professional Development Opportunity: Tuesday, April 25th - 6:00pm – 8:00pm: Plan Less, Do More: Simple open ended projects for science learning
Rachel Franz will lead a great session on Science! Planning hands-on science activities and experiments for our classrooms can feel overwhelming, especially when planning time is limited! But what if it didn’t have to feel that way? Join for an evening of ideas and inspiration for how to support learning in science and beyond using open-ended, readily available materials. This workshop will help teachers reframe their approach to activities with young children so they can feel successful while also feeling less taxed by planning requirements. Teachers will leave with new techniques for supporting children’s learning and inspiration for activities to try in the classroom. All of these trainings will be eligible for 2 STARS hours.
2.) Licensed Programs ONLY: DCYF Annual Monitoring Visits
Many of you have had your DCYF annual monitoring visits over the course of the last few months. Wanted to let you know that I am more than happy to talk through your results or answer any of your questions about your visit. If you have not had your visit more than happy to talk with you as well to answer any questions as you anticipate your licensors visit!
Have a great week!
