Great teachers create play environments that engage, motivate and stretch children into becoming thinkers and learners. The classroom environment is a perfect environment for children to learn and practice social emotional skills. We will discuss how to model expectations and give children opportunities to practice acquired skills through play-based learning. The connection of emotions, self-regulation, and language is the basis of the webinar.
As a result of this webinar, participants will be able to:
- utilize lesson plans and teachable moments that are developmentally appropriate for building social emotional skills
- explore strategies and language that promote effective communication to support emerging self-regulation
