THE LONG TRIP Montgomery and Selma, Alabama April 2 - 8, 2018 The Long Trip will travel to Montgomery and Selma, Alabama. We have chosen to visit Alabama’s Black Belt for its historical significance as well as the rich culture and unique challenges that shape the region today. In 1965 both cities were at the center of the fight to protect African Americans from barriers that prevented them from voting. Today this fight continues in Alabama. In addition to exploring the issue of voting rights we will visit artists and craftspeople, speak with members of the religious community, and hear from educators who best understand the lived experience of the children they serve. Instructor: Abigail Kerlin bankstreet.edu/long-trip

TEED561N Creative Movement in the Early Childhood Curriculum (Preschool - Grade 3) Children love to move! This participatory course demonstrates engaging strategies that can integrate movement—children’s natural language—into the early childhood curriculum in schools and other settings. Using scarves, songs, music, and children’s literature, we will explore how kinesthetic teaching techniques provide a springboard for the development of body and group awareness, spatial and numerical concepts, language and pre-reading skills. Creative movement activities can ease transitions and classroom management issues as they heighten self esteem, nurture creativity, and build community in the classroom. Instructor: Susan Griss April 27 and 28 Friday, 4:45 pm – 9:15 pm Saturday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm 12 CTLE or 1.2 CEU $405/1 credit $1,519 Materials fee: $5 Registration deadline: 4/20 TEWS801N Early Childhood Education and Digital Technologies Participants will examine technologies as a mode of expression for children.

approach allows educators to better assess and build on students’ diverse backgrounds, inspire linguistic confidence, and develop metalinguistic awareness. This workshop will focus on incorporating translanguaging strategies and spaces into curricula in dual language bilingual classrooms.

Educators in other classroom settings will also come away with new ideas for supporting their language learners.

Participants will look at examples of translanguaging in various classroom environments and analyze student work to reflect on how to best support learning in multilingual environments. You will have time to concentrate on one project or unit of study in their classroom and identify areas to welcome a wider range of linguistic resources.

Instructor: Gladys Aponte March 3 Saturday, 9:00 am – 3:00 pm 5 CTLE or .5 CEU $275 (not offered for credit) Materials fee: $5 Registration Deadline: 2/23 TEED654N The Reggio-Emilia Approach: From Theory to Practice (Ages Infant - 5 Years) The early childhood program founded in Reggio-Emilia, Italy, incorporates an emphasis on the learning environment, process vs. product, developmentally appropriate practice, and the importance of the community of learners. Much of this philosophy reflects the culture of the Italians and is difficult to re-create in the United States. This course is meant to provide an introduction to the approach and will attempt to bridge The Reggio-Emilia theory with American culture. We will view the Reggio-Emilia approach as a means to combat the push-down curriculum, competition, product over process, and the jumping/skipping of learning stages we are now experiencing in this country. Instructor: Rick Ellis April 27 and 28 Friday, 4:45 pm – 9:15 pm Saturday, 9:00 am – 5:00 pm 12 CTLE or 1.2 CEU $405/1 credit $1,519 Materials fee: $10 Registration Deadline: 4/20 SEWS554N Supporting Language Development in the Pre-School Classroom (Ages 2 - 5 Years) This workshop is based on the premise that with increased opportunities to practice language in the classroom, young children will become more efficient communicators.

Participants will be provided with a variety of classroom techniques that will engage children with a wide range of language abilities and will help them to listen, learn, and communicate most effectively. You will learn to analyze teacher communication styles and how to best match them to the language learning styles of your students. Using a timeline for development as a foundation, we will review the course of typical language acquisition and contrast it with language delay, differences, and disorders. We will use multi-sensory materials to practice how to incorporate language- stimulation techniques into daily lessons so as to seize all interactions as language learning opportunities.

Instructor: Suzanne Abrams

March 3 Saturday, 10:00 am – 5:00 pm 6 CTLE or .6 CEU $275 (not offered for credit) Materials fee: $5 Registration Deadline: 2/27 SETE511N Using the Supportive Play Model: Individual Intervention in Early Childhood Practice (Ages Birth - 6 Years) The Supportive Play Model (SPM) is an approach to early care and intervention that addresses all lines of development through play and is applicable to a cross-disciplinary audience. It pays unique attention to the child’s self-social-emotional formation, the impact of the inner life and the centrality of relationships. In SPM, play serves as the common medium linking the multiple disciplines serving typical young children and those whose development is different including children on the autistic spectrum. In this course, the student will learn to implement SPM, which provides the practitioner with a systematic process for observing children, typical and atypical, analyzing their play, and preparing developmentally appropriate and promoting playbased environments and intervention strategies. The model draws from practices in early intervention, the nursery school, mental health, and DIR/Floortime. An introduction to the principles and practices of DIR/Floortime will be incorporated into the course by the instructor, who is a member of the DIR Institute faculty. Some experience working with young children is required.

The aim of this workshop is to help leaders initiate or deepen the work of faculties and teams to appreciate diversity and counter bias. Through experiential processes, this workshop models approaches for use in schools, starting with how to generate a shared vision and common language around high expectations and strong support for all. Many factors undermine equity of access, attention, and resources.

Collegial inquiry—when based on strategic team building, concepts, and focus—can make a crucial difference. A key takeaway will be how to set conditions for a staff or team in rethinking assumptions affecting academics and behavior.
