SUMMARY:Preventing Suspensions and Expulsions

Utilizing scenarios and small group discussion\, we will reflect on ways you can apply the Steps to Prevent Suspensions/Expulsions tool in order to build your capacity and respond to children and their families with wisdom and compassion\, and how when to seek help from outside sources.  **Must attend both sessions to receive credit** \nTrainer: Andrea Cossey\, 4-C Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant \nAudience: All Providers \n4 Training Hours; Level of Learning: Intermediate \nFee: \nNon 4-C Members: $10 \n4-C Members: Free

SUMMARY:Understanding Children's Temperament
DESCRIPTION:Temperament is a way children respond to the world. It influences the way children handle emotions\, regulate behavior\, feel around new people and adapt to new situations.  You can nurture a child’s development by using strategies that suit their temperaments.  Nevertheless\, the behavioral adjustment of young children depends a lot on the interaction between their temperament and yours and how others respond to them – how comfortably they fit within their environment and the people around them. We will explore children’s temperament and how to respond. \nTrainer: Marquita Myles\, 4-C Infant Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant \nAudience: All Providers \n1.5 Training Hours; Level of Learning: Introductory \nFee:  \nNon 4-C Members: $10 \n4-C Members: Free
