Child Growth & Development: Revisiting the Basics

Wednesday August 17, 2016     

Time: 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm        3 hours training                

Fee: $50.00     FCC Fee: $35.00 (Promo Code)

To work effectively with children it is necessary - not optional - to understand how a child develops from all perspectives: physical, cognitive, social and emotional. During this workshop we will explore the typical range of developmental behaviour, how development occurs within the context of family, community, culture and relationships and gain understanding of the complex interactions among developmental domains and the environment as children grow. 

Objectives:  

  • To look at the typical range of developmental behaviour.
  • To gain knowledge about how to respond effectively to the needs, challenges and capacities of children and their families.
  • To learn to identify, interpret, and respond to a child's Individual differences.
  • To explore how to relate our approach of guidance to child development.

Suitable for all early learning child care professionals working with children of any age, including children with extra support needs and parents.          

Presenter: Christine Mann. Christine has over 24 years working with families and children in a variety of contexts and has been working with BC Child Care Resource and Referrals for the last 14 years. Currently she works at the North Shore CCRR. Christine is a recognized and experienced facilitator for many entry level child care and parenting courses.
