Come learn about the Pyramid framework, a research-based tool that can guide us as we support social-emotional development in infants and toddlers. This 14-hour class will help you understand and apply strategies for building relationships and collaborating with families of infants and toddlers; understand and apply social emotional learning practices in your work; and reflect on your own implicit biases while you work to create anti-biased, anti-racist, and trauma-informed programs for our youngest children.
This curriculum is made up of two modules designed to promote healthy social emotional development, build relationships with children and families, create supportive classroom environments, provide targeted strategies to help children learn to self-regulate and express emotions, and offer strategies to help children who have persistent challenging behaviors. This curriculum focuses on infants and toddlers. Participants must complete both modules to receive credit for the full 14hrs.
Please note that this is not a training to introduce the Pyramid Model but rather to support the implementation of instructional practices. To support your memory about Pyramid Model here is a link to the basics at challengingbehavior.org: www.challengingbehavior.org/pyramid-model/overview/basics/
