Exploring Powerful Interactions: A Head Start Virtual Book Study

Complete Attendance not available before workshop starts.

Powerful Interactions: How to Connect with Children to Extend Their Learning by Amy Laura Dombro, Judy Jablon, and Charlotte Stetson (Second Edition, 2020)
Focuses on transforming “everyday” interactions with children into intentional, purposeful moments that support learning and growth. Rather than viewing interactions as neutral or incidental, the authors present a clear framework based on three steps that help adults meaningfully engage with children: Be Present, Connect, & Extend Learning

Incentives & Participation Requirements:
All participants will receive a copy of the book and a stipend for their full participation in the book study. To be eligible for the stipend, participants must attend all four Zoom sessions.

Wednesdays in June | 10:00–11:00 AM
(Weekly Zoom meetings: June 3rd, 10th, 17th, and 24th)

This workshop is for Head Start Teachers ONLY
