8.1 Problem Solving with Adults
Standard 1 of NAEYC's Early Childhood Program Standards and Accreditation Criteria (2005a) states, "The program promotes positive relationships among all children and adults to encourage each child's sense of individual worth and belonging as part of a community and to foster each child's ability to contribute as a responsible community member" (p. 9). The rationale for the standard is that positive relationships and a positive, nurturing, sensitive climate are essential for the development of emotional regulation, constructive interactions, and overall learning in children (NAEYC, 2005a). Children develop a positive sense of self, and they are encouraged to respect and cooperate with others.
However, problems, conflicts, disagreements, and distrust can—and often do—develop. These can occur between the family and the program, between staff within the programs—staff to staff, directors and staff, staff and consultants—and between children in the program. When this occurs, caregivers need to engage in problem solving. While no family or early care and education program is ever totally without conflicts and issues to solve, the goal is, firstly, to create an environment where constructive problem solving can take place and, secondly, to be able to constructively solve problems.
Feelings
Conflicts, confusion, and disagreements can cause intense feelings among those involved. To address conflicts and disagreements, we must try to determine where these feelings come from. In the heat of the moment, this will probably not be possible, but once we have had time to reflect, we need to look at the feelings that disagreements and problems produce.
We all have feelings, and it is very important to accept and appreciate these feelings. We need to reflect on our feelings and on why certain things make us feel a certain way. Feelings are complex, subjective experiences that involve physical and mental aspects of self—they can be felt, expressed, acted on, and thought about (Greenspan & Greenspan, 1985). All feelings have value and are useful—even ones we view as negative. Feelings are how we react to experiences, and they help us organize and make sense of our world. The great works of art, music, drama, and dance are based on feelings—some pleasant, and some dark and tragic.
We learn about feelings from our childhood experiences. When children are young, adults label the child's emotions: "That bang scared you!" "The dog's bark upset you!" Part of this socialization process is to help children know how to respond to the environment—for safety, to develop appropriate reactions to the environment, and to teach children culturally appropriate responses to their feelings. Other feelings, such as those of love, trust, fear, excitement, and surprise, are natural responses to the environment that help us feel good about ourselves and the social environment (Rogers, 1980).
Another way we learn about feelings is through social r.

Guidelines for Facilitating
Learning and Development
with Infants and Toddlers
By far the most important aspect of facilitating learning with infants and toddlers is understanding and responding to the fact that infants and toddlers are active, moti-
vated learners. Infants and toddlers constantly explore the world around them, including
people and relationships, and make sense of things based on their experiences and devel-
opmental abilities.
To facilitate means to make easier. Teachers who effectively facilitate learning make
it easier for infants and toddlers to explore, concentrate on learning, make discoveries,
and solve problems. Teachers can facilitate learning by creating situations that allow chil-
dren to pursue their interests actively, observing as children learn, and expanding oppor-
tunities for learning. Teachers should begin by finding out about the children’s interests
and abilities from their families. Information from the families provides the foundation
for observing children and being responsive to their inborn drive to learn and gain mas-
tery. Effective teachers observe what children do in the setting, give them time for prac-
tice and repetition, communicate with children about their play and discoveries, and then
offer suggestions to help children expand their exploration and experimentation.

CHAPTER 4
Building an Anti‑Bias Education Program: Clarifying and Brave Conversations with Children
Everything teachers do—setting up the learning environment; planning the curriculum; observing, assessing, and thinking about individual children; and so much more—rests upon establishing strong, caring, and trusting relationships with children and families. Without such relationships with their teachers, children find it hard to open up, to learn, to grow, to feel safe. These relationships are built onSeeing each individual child as a member of a unique family with many, often complex, social identities that shape their learning and ways of beingRespecting each child’s individual way of learning and being rather than imposing an expected behaviorKnowing how children learn to think and how they are, and are not yet, able to discern what is happening around themUnderstanding that children are in the process of learning at all times and that it takes many experiences before they master an idea or a behaviorListening carefully to each child to understand how each is making sense of experiences and/or behavior
An essential element in building strong relationships is your willingness to engage in conversations that support children’s sense of self, that let them know they are safe and honored exactly as who they are. Children live in a world that sends multiple, stereotype‑laden messages about their comparative value, their right to be visible, and how they are expected to behave based on their economic class, ethnicity, gender, abilities, racial identity, and religion. These overt and covert messages affect their own sense of self‑worth and how they think about people who are different. Avoiding conversations about identity and fairness is a disservice to children who are developmentally dependent upon adults to help them make sense of the complex and contradictory societal messages they receive.
When programs do not demonstrate respect for and acknowledgement of human diversity, children and families cannot feel truly seen or honored. When a teacher avoids directly addressing comments or behaviors that can hurt another child, no child feels safe. Keeping silent not only does not help children, it actively hurts them. Learning how to break this silence, how to talk about anti‑bias issues with clarity, courage, and caring, is an essential skill not only in the world of early childhood education but in the world at large. This chapter explores ways to build trusting relationships with children by directly talking about identity, diversity, injustice, and activism, which correspond to the four goals of ABE.The Hurtful Power of Silence
It is hoped that children will turn to their trusted adults when they are confused or are hurt by their experiences. But to do so, children need a vocabulary to describe what they are thinking. Too often, adults ignore children’s attempts to understand how people can be different from one another and yet the same. A Whit ...
Social literacy concerns itself with the development of social skills, knowledge and positive human values that enable human beings to act positively and responsively.

Ms. Mimi knows that young children’s readiness for school comes with increased
expectations for academic skills, but she worries that her preschoolers are not get-
ting enough experience with social skill building. When her supervisor comes for a
visit, Ms. Mimi shares her concern that she may not be meeting her preschoolers’
social needs. She says, “Some days I find myself worrying so much about teach-

have enough opportunities to learn how to get along with each other.”

Neurodiversity can be found in any classroom, however not every teacher incorporates neurodiverse students' demands into their methodology. Our neurodiverse children are typically excellent at concealing their feelings of overwhelm in the classroom. Students' anxiety is sometimes expressed through fidgeting, talking to themselves, or engaging in off-task activities that comforts them, or in a number of different ways that are unique to them.

Seventh period, Montenique Woodard's last class of the day, has been her hardest class all year. When Edutopia first talked to her in the fall, she said of her middle school science class, "I don't know what to do with them." One boy in particular, the "class clown," was a constant problem, and the way he behaved affected his 15 male classmates.

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.

Social and Emotional Skill Progression in Preschool.pdf
1. Social and Emotional Skill Progression
in Preschool
It is just as vital to teach preschool pupils social and emotional learning (SEL) as it is to
teach them the alphabet and fundamental arithmetic skills.
Sara Rimm-Kaufman makes it apparent in SEL from the Start that "social-emotional abilities
can have substantial payoffs in academics and life beyond the classroom," and that the time
to begin establishing SEL is while children are very young. This was Myrna Shure and
George Spivack's credo when their I Can Problem Solve (ICPS) curriculum was introduced
to toddlers half a century ago.
Despite the lengthy history of study in this area, I continue to hear instructors express
uncertainty about what sorts of SEL abilities we can realistically expect from preschoolers
and how to build up classrooms to activate these skills.
Recognizing that children will attend preschool with varying levels of SEL skills, we can
anticipate them to progress toward mastery by kindergarten. This will require frequent
reminders to use their talents as well as assistance in breaking them down into a number of
steps for learning purposes.
Here is a concise, practical guide to SEL and early children based on ICPS and other SEL
activities aimed at preschool pupils.
4 ESSENTIAL SEL SKILLS FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS
1. They should be able to function in a classroom setting. That they are eager to participate
and assist in class. They pay attention to peers' and adults' overt nonverbal cues, listen
intently to what classmates and adults say, collaborate in groups (taking turns, asking for
and giving aid), and follow orders. They must follow safety, health, and appearance
standards (including being willing to be cleaned up; avoiding electrical outlets, fan blades,
and similar dangers; and avoiding putting inappropriate things in their mouths).
2. 2. They should be able to express fundamental emotions. Preschoolers should be
concerned about the well-being of others, even if they are hesitant to assist without adult
urging or instruction. They should rejoice with others. They should be able to identify and
define the following feelings in themselves, others, and images: sadness, anger, happiness,
fear, surprise, upset, worry, and pride.
When children entering kindergarten struggle to identify aspects of themselves or their
activities in which they are proud, it is a red flag that should prompt a discussion with
caregivers and possibly school mental health specialists.
3. They should be able to have a discussion in critical social circumstances. Young children
require assistance in finding appropriate phrases for typical situations. These include utilizing
words when they want something or are frustrated, asking for help, assisting others,
thanking or showing thanks in various ways, expressing concern, and discussing
accomplishments.
4. They should begin practicing crucial social and emotional literacy topics. When Grover on
Sesame Street talks to kids about near and far, he is following in Myrna Shure's footsteps.
She and her colleague George Spivack discovered crucial word "pairs" as the underpinnings
of human connections and problem-solving. These develop brain architecture and executive
functioning in children, allowing them to comprehend their surroundings. In addition to
discussing near and distant, use the following terms frequently to assist children understand
these concepts:
Is or is not
Same/different
Can/cannot, may/might (indicating permission)
And/or/else
Some/all
Before/after/next
If/then
3. IMPLEMENTING A POSITIVE SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL CLIMATE IN PRIMARY
SCHOOL CLASSROOMS
Explicit classroom procedures provide significant comfort and support to preschoolers in
particular. These routines aid in the development of if/then, may/may not, before/after/next,
and a variety of other SEL-related competences. Routines for entering the classroom,
entering circle time, preparing for meals and snacks, cleaning up, and preparing for outdoor
activities and dismissal are vital; using music in these routines aids recall (for teachers and
parents alike!). Other approaches to make pupils feel at ease and create opportunity for
them to exercise their nascent SEL muscles in the classroom include the following:
Having clear, visible classroom and school regulations that include expectations for positive
behavior, as well as respect for classmates and adults
Providing opportunity for all students to contribute to classroom routines and upkeep on a
daily basis
As an alternative to verbal reprimands, provide frequent teacher redirection.
Creating channels for positive recognition and acknowledgment of all children's strengths
Laughter, joy, enjoyment, and awe, as well as curiosity about how and why things happen
around them in school, the community, and the world
Observing holidays and family traditions while respecting those of others
Participating in community events to teach children that they matter and that they can make
a difference in the world (e.g., recycling, sharing, helping others)
Furthermore, it is beneficial to include brief activities that explicitly activate the previously
mentioned social-emotional-cognitive architecture on a regular basis. Teachers, for example,
might utilize picture naming and rhyming in forms such as the Simon Says game to teach
kids concepts such as same, all, some, and is/is not. You can also utilize alliteration to
promote attentive listening (e.g., differentiating cat from cot or rat; knowing the similarity of
book, bag, and ball). These activities stress abilities that are essential for successful
problem-solving and decision-making.
Here's one of my faves from the SELect Social Decision Making/Problem Solving Program of
the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL): "I'm going to say a
few words." I'd like you to clap whenever you hear the word cat (or whenever you hear a
term that rhymes with—sounds the same as—cat but isn't cat):
Cat-Bat-Car-Flat-Cat-Cat-Cup-Mat-Car-Cat.”
4. Kids enjoy these games, and it's enjoyable to see them improve with your help over time.
Preschoolers, as you can see, already have SEL abilities. It is our responsibility to provide
reminders, advice, and encouraging environments that will allow their skills to develop.
