Targeted Social and Emotional Supports-Promoting Social and Emotional Competence in Children

Targeted Social and Emotional Supports-Promoting Social and Emotional Competence in Children

Children’s social and emotional learning is supported through caring relationships, consistent routines, and opportunities for children to express their feelings and interact positively with others. Educators can encourage these skills by modeling respectful behaviour, teaching emotional awareness, and creating inclusive learning environments. Working closely with families helps build a shared understanding of how to support children’s emotional growth both at home and in the classroom.

 

Facilitator:

Carolyn Porter is an ASaP Coach with Kids Included. Her role is to support educators implementing the Pyramid Model in their childcare rooms to ensure all children's participation and belonging through responsive relationships, quality inclusive environments and supportive learning opportunities. She has lived in Grande Prairie for 9 years and lived in Ontario before that. Carolyn has 20 years’ experience working in child care in different roles (educator, director, supervisor, support). When she is not working, she is doing things with her 2 children and husband and baking sourdough.

 

Participants will be given the link to the video and are required to participate in one of two ways-- with a microphone/built in speaker or through the chat. In addition there will be a log tracking which members contribute and which do not, and those that do not contribute will not receive PD hours. We ask that you leave your camera on for the session.
