Workshop 1
Workshop 2
Authenticity and Professionalism One of the aims of the RIE® philosophy is for children to be authentic. Authentic children need to be with authentic adults. This workshop will share the findings of some recent research into early childhood teacher professionalism and authenticity -‐ can early childhood teachers be both professional and authentic? We will also explore some ways in which we can bring our authentic selves to our work with children and families. Workshop 3
Time to Play!! Supporting Social Competence Recognising and Responding to toddlers as they test boundaries and push limits. What is our role as teachers in supporting our toddlers as they work through struggle and conflicts? Ania and Anita will be sharing ideas and resources to help you create an environment of wonder and curiosity, inspiring infants and toddlers to explore, discover and make sense of the world around them. Come prepared to share your treasures, as well as pick up ideas to add. About Anita
