Hand-in-Hand: Children Experiencing Play Problems The Hand-in-Hand is a series of seven training modules that cover a variety of play issues that may affect young children. Each module includes a video and interactive workshop activities. Project EXCEPTIONAL Curriculum Volumes I & II Who Will Care For Our Children? A Historical Perspective of Services for Young Children with Disabilities - This interactive workshop sets the foundation for the later trainings by highlighting the history of the human rights movement and how it relates to the journey by individuals with special needs as they become an accepted part of the community. Children with special needs and their families are often left with few options for quality care. This training introduces this struggle and provides information on the benefits of inclusive care for all children. More Alike Than Different - Ability awareness and respect for diversity is the focus of this workshop. Participants will look at the myths that influence and affect one s attitudes about individuals with special needs. The family perspective is shared concerning the need for quality care. The training emphasizes the importance of supporting all children in their development of a positive sense of self worth. Living With Disability: The Family Perspective - The family perspective is critical when working to successfully include children with special needs in community child care settings. This training highlights the unique issues that families of young children with special needs face when looking for child care. Similarities between all families are highlighted-those with children with special needs and those without. Emphasis is placed on the acceptance and respect of the diversity of family structures, values, and members. Module 1 - When a Child Doesn t Play When a Child Doesn t Play is the foundation for the series, presenting information on the value of play and how play problems put children at risk for delayed learning and development. Module 1 shows the six play problem behaviors that are discussed in detail in subsequent modules. It also demonstrates a flexible, responsive process of intervention that can be adapted to each child s needs. Module 2 - The Child Who Wanders Module 2 provides opportunities to observe children who wander, to learn some of the reasons for the behavior, and to watch various ways teachers intervene to help children with different needs settle into play. Module 3 - The Child Who Dabbles Module 3 provides opportunities to observe children who are only marginally invested in their play, presents possible reasons for the behavior, and shows strategies designed to help them play with greater depth and focus. Module 4 - The Child Who Appears Anxious Module 4 shows how children who appear anxious are often reluctant to join in play. It also discusses possible reasons for the behavior and shows teachers using peer, curriculum and direct interventions to help children become more trusting, relaxed and playful. 4 9
5 Training/Workshops Offered cont. Other Training Topics **The Nurtured Heart Approach - Children with high intensity temperaments are often children who challenge us in school or child care settings. The Nurtured Heart Approach, based on the work of Howard Glasser, is a unique approach for working with children who have challenging behaviors. It combines four basic strategies to enable caregivers to transform their view of a child with high energy and intensity as challenging, to a child who is a gift. *Sensory Processing Disorder and Young Children - This interactive workshop will describe the characteristics of Sensory Processing Disorder and how it may impact young children in child care programs. Each participant will have the opportunity to examine their own sensory preferences and how they meet their individual sensory needs. Children have unique sensory preferences and sometimes those preferences can interfere with learning, social growth, and may result in challenging behaviors. Strategies for inclusion will be presented as well as local resources to share with parents. Floor Time: Tuning into Each Child - This interactive class uses video and small group discussions to show participants how to use the Floor Time model developed by Dr. Stanley Greenspan. The workshop explores the five step process to support the emotional and social development of a child. Floor Time allows adults to be aware of and to build on their intuitive understanding of children s emotional growth while building self-esteem. Participants will also learn how to be a good floor timer and receive several handouts on the use of Floor Time. Continued Inclusion: Developmentally Appropriate Care for All Young Children - Key concepts of developmentally appropriate integrated care are presented and discussed in this useful and interactive training. The important role of the caregiver in the creation of an encouraging environment is also covered. The primary focus of this training is enhancing the participant s skills in three areas: (1) observation (2) encouraging and fostering positive social interaction and (3) encouraging and fostering productive play within child care settings. Family Caregiving Partnerships - Once again the family perspective is brought to the forefront in this interactive and creative training. The importance of building quality relationships, an essential element in all successful child care placements, is highlighted in this training. Key components of a successful parent-provider partnership are outlined. Building a partnership with open communication is especially critical when working with children with special needs. Information must be shared in an environment of trust and respect. When Concerns Arise: Identifying and Referring Children with Exceptional Needs - This interactive training will assist providers in the identification and referral of children with developmental concerns. They will explore the benefits of supporting and assisting parents in seeking help for a child who may be in need of specialized services. The assessment process is mapped out in detail. Information and assistance is given in sharing concerns with parents in a respectful manner if it is discovered that their child may have special needs. The First Signs: Red Flags and Referral - This Project EXCEPTIONAL MN interactive workshop highlights red flags for developmental delays, how to share your developmental concerns with families, and referral resources in your community. Attendees will receive a chart on child development, red flags for atypical development, and resource information. Caregiving Strategies for Building Resilience in Children at Risk - This interactive and informative training provides a wonderful foundation from which caregivers can evaluate a child s behavior. Stressors and risk factors and how they affect behavior are discussed. Internal and external stressors affect each of us and may be a critical piece in the appropriate care of a child with special needs. 8 5
6 Training/Workshops Offered cont. Caring for Young Children with Physical Disabilities - This interactive training will provide caregivers with a better understanding of children with physical disabilities. An overview of typical and atypical physical development is included as well as suggestions for safe and appropriate positioning and handling of children with special needs. Concrete suggestions are given regarding the use of adaptive equipment, creating the appropriate environment and safe lifting techniques. Nuts and Bolts: Administrative Issues in Serving Children with Exceptional Care Needs and Their Families - Administrative issues play a large role in the caregiver s ability to successfully include children with special needs in community child care settings. This interactive training will assist caregivers in creating a foundation from which they can thoroughly meet the needs of the children and families they serve. Licensing issues, insurance, liability rates, contracts, discrimination, and confidentiality are all discussed. Children and Challenging Behavior: Making Inclusion Work Curriculum *Children s Behavior: The Importance of the Practitioner s Role - Whether you ve been in child care for one week or for 10 years, at some point you ve had to guide a behavior that disrupts your daily routine. Join us in an interactive look at challenging behavior and your role in working through it based on your own experiences and background.
