Seed & Sew In-Person Professional Development Day

August 31, 2023 | 8:30a-12:00p
Holy Family Church Hall
38 Lincoln St,
Essex Junction, VT 05452

Priority will be given to programs that are Early Childhood Business Collaborative (ECBC) AND S.E.E.D. Certified®. 

Join us for an in-person Professional Development day, focusing on classroom regulation and program environment. This PD day includes two sessions by S.E.E.D. Certification® educators.

Session 1: Regulating a Classroom of Children
Each child has unique sensory systems— what calms them, what dysregulates them, how their body and brain understand the world around them. How do teachers plan for each child and facilitate a group at the same time? Join Alyssa Blask Campbell as we get nerdy and dive in and learn more about how to honor children’s individual needs each day.

Session 2:Utilizing Motivation Theories as a Tool for Overcoming Burnout
We all want our teachers to feel supported, but how does that play out in the day-to-day? The relationships that teachers build with children, coworkers and families hold a critical role. Join Ellen Drolette to explore the theories that impact these types of relationships, as well as the environmental factors that play into overcoming burnout.
