How to cultivate, develop and maintain meaningful reciprocal relationships with children APST 3: Plan for and implement effective teaching and learning Presented by Philip Butler
Description
Obvious to some, common knowledge for others — the understanding that your relationships with children are the most critical part of your daily practice and key to your success as an educator. In this webinar, we will cover various strategies to assist you in cultivating, developing and maintaining meaningful reciprocal relationships with children. As was so beautifully put by Rita Parsons… ‘children don’t learn from people they don’t like’. Our programs and plans for children’s development are only as good as our knowledge of the child. Our knowledge of the child comes from the depth of relationship we have with that child. So, the deeper our relationship, the more knowledge we have, and subsequently, the richer our programming and planning. A positive adult-child relationship has a foundation of trust, understanding and caring. Positive relationships do not happen by themselves. Relationship building skills should be a part of your DNA as an educator.
