Re-establishing Social Interaction with Peers

From the comfort of your house attend a great online training

“Boosting Peer Play: How to Support Interactions in Early Childhood Settings” By The Hanen Centre 

I hope you like the course as much as I do.

Check the link https://www.hanen.org/Professional-Development/Online-Training/BPP.aspx

This is a course overview you can find at The Hanen Center web:

“From the age of three, children in early childhood settings begin to interact more with their peers than they do with their educators. This means that much of their cognitive, language, and social skills learning happens during peer interaction. They get to practice taking turns in conversation, using their vocabulary, negotiating, collaborating, sharing, and problem-solving.

But what about the children who tend to play alone or watch from the sidelines? Children who are frequently left out of interactions miss important opportunities to practice their developing skills, build their confidence, and make friends.

Whether you work directly with children in early childhood settings or consult educators who work in those settings, you will come away from this e-seminar with evidence-based ideas to:

Encourage and support peer interaction by making strategic changes in classroom set-up and using specific interaction techniques.

Raise the profile of children who are more isolated so that they are more likely to be included in interactions.

Become more intentional and strategic in the way you support peer play in order to make the biggest difference for all children.”

How Critical Is the Critical Period for Language

A new study performed at MIT suggests that children remain very skilled at learning the grammar of a new language much longer than expected — up to the age of 17 or 18. People who start learning a language between 10 and 18 will still learn quickly, but since they have a shorter window before their learning ability declines, they do not achieve the proficiency of native speakers, the researchers found.
