I facilitated a PD event where we explored the Division for Early Childhood’s Recommended Practices. For each theme (there are 8), I shared a practical solution from the Pre-K Teach & Play “vault.”
Here they are….
- Assessment: 101 things to assess with blocks
- Environment: Fresh look at learning centers
- Family: Healthy mind platter for families to use at home
- Instruction: Stress reduction strategies
- Interaction: Building relationships
- Leadership: Landing page
- Teaming and Collaboration: Can Do Planning Strategy
- Transition: Transition essentials
For those unfamiliar with DEC’s Recommended Practices, here are a few related solutions.
