Early Childood Investigations Webinars: A Guide to Strategic Curriculum Implementation in the Path of COVID, by Kathe Petchel and Molly Hichens

Description:

Curriculum implementation is more vital than ever in early childhood classrooms. The past two years has been entirely disruptive for children and families. In fact, many children have missed out on preschool entirely. Programs are suffering from severe staffing shortages and restricted operations. Now more than ever, every moment in a preschoolers’ day matter, and teachers are feeling the pressure to make those moments count.

Your current challenge as a program leader now is how to do a lot with less. You program has fewer teachers who have less training and time than ever to attend to the needs of children who need more than ever. Streamlining their needs with easy-to-implement, yet intentional, play-based curriculum is a high priority. By focusing strategically on how to support teachers’ pedagogical implementation, you will not only make work easier and more enjoyable for them, but also fulfill the ever-increasing needs of the children and families. This session, presented by experienced early childhood program owners and leaders, Kathe Petchel and Molly Hichens, will dive into the benefits early childhood program leaders and their programs reap when refocusing on curriculum implementation, engaging with parents as partners and nurturing a new group of teachers needing training and support.
