SUMMARY:Hey\, Why is that Lady in a Wheelchair?: Disability Awareness for Young Children
DESCRIPTION:Young children are naturally curious…they’re supposed to be.  We want them to be and that’s how they learn. So how to we nurture that curiosity in situations where they encounter something or someone new and different from them? Participants will discuss and explore new ways to “normalize” disabilities so the curiosity becomes natural interaction. We will examine ways to build this into the everyday environment and discuss the value\, or invalue\, of simulating disabilities (for example\, pretending to be blind to see how that “might feel”). Finally\, participants will take an introspective look at their own views and experiences to examine how this may impact integration of this topic into their classroom. \nTrainer: Ann Wilson\, 4-C Training and Technical Assistance Coordinator \nAudience: All Providers \n2 Training Hours; Level of Learning: Introductory \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
