MENTAL HEALTH
In Early Childhood classrooms there is a lot of things that help keep it running smoothly. However, a lot of people that have never worked in a classroom do not realize how important the overall health of children is to assuring that the classroom is being as effective as it should be.
2
Tips to Promote Children’s Mental Health
Show children self-care methods
Foster a positive self-view
Model healthy habits
Looking on the Brightside- teaching hope and determination.
Teach and model self-reflection
Teach acceptance of change
Make connections- model friendship skills and abilities
Teach and promote empathy by modeling empathy behaviors
Have a consistent yet flexible schedule. Routines are great but strict schedules can be overwhelming and stressful.
Take a break together, spend some down time just playing and enjoying each other company.
A toddler’s relationships with parents and caregivers help shape who they are, their personalities, and their understanding of the world around them. These trusted adults lay the foundation for further social and emotional development and skills. The secure relationships toddlers form with trusted adults, provides them with a sense of safety. This sense of safety and trust allows them to confidently explore and discover new objects and places. When toddlers feel safe they are more alert, and more likely play, observe, interact and experiment with people and objects. With nurturing and trusting relationships toddler’s brains mature through interactions. They learn that they are safe when conflict arises because adults are responsive to their needs. These relationships teach toddlers how to form other relationships, respond to challenges, and communicate with others. They also teach toddlers how to recognize and respond to emotional cues, and how to regulate and react to their own emotions

Overall Growth of Children
Developmental Milestones outline the skills are abilities that most children should acquire during these Windows of Opportunities and throughout their development. It is important to keep in mind that all children develop at varying rates throughout their development, but it is also important to watch for red flags and significant delays. Developmental Milestones are helpful in tracking toddlers progress and determining whether they need early intervention. Early intervention services are vital in toddlers. Many times, early intervention services can help reduces delays and the effect disabilities may have on a child’s success in school and later in life.

Coaching Seminar on the Eight Kinds of Smart [Handouts].pptxThomas Armstrong
These are handouts for a seminar conducted through Animas Centre for Coaching in the U.K. delivered on April 4, 2024. In the presentation, I talk about the eight intelligences in Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, explaining how to assess them in oneself and others, how Gardner came up with these particular intelligences, and how MI theory can be applied to coaching practices such as career advice, learning strategies, and problem-solving styles. Finally I share something about the six books I've written on the topic, including 7 Kinds of Smart, Multiple Intelligences in the Classroom, and In Their Own Way.
These are the handouts to a keynote presentation I did for the 29th Annual MicroSociety Conference on July 12, 2022, a virtual conference. It focuses on the importance of seeing each child and teen as a genius. Every child comes into life with natural curiosity, creativity, imagination, inventiveness, and playfulness. Educators need to learn how to not interfere with this incredible birthright by listening to kids, asking them what they need, providing them with stimulating learning environments that allow them to come up with new ideas and discoveries, and opening up to a re-discovery of the natural genius in ourselves as educators.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

8. Advice to Give Parents
• Start by Identifying Strengths
• Encourage ALL Your Child’s Intelligences
• Be Sparing with Technology
• Choose a Developmental Preschool
• See the Gifts in Children with Special Needs
• Provide Simple Experiential Learning Activities
• Supply Proper Nutrition to Nourish the Brain
9. Learning
is a broad, holistic experience that begins early in the life course
During the first 3 years, the early foundations of learning –
including language & visual development, reasoning, memory and
problem solving – are established
Optimal growth and development early in the life course can serve
to prepare children for lifelong learning and later accomplishments
in school and beyond.

Editor's Notes
NOTES:
Key contributors to learning that are impacted by nutrition include observation, cognition, and physical vitality. These contributors are at the core of Wyeth Nutrition’s promotional strategy and are supported by the Wyeth Biofactors System—a unique combination of precisely-balanced, age-appropriate nutrients scientifically designed to work together to support learning and development.
For the purposes of this presentation, we will focus solely on these learning contributors.
