From the speakers in the Parent Partnerships section, Goldie Golding, Director of Yeshiva Sharei Torah and author of several children’s books discusses how to bring literacy into the classroom. Kathy Lee, author of Solutions for Early Childhood Directors, will explain how to deal with parent and teacher gossip. And Lorena Seidel from The Purposeful Child, discusses how teachers can create a positive classroom culture.
Chanie Wilschanski, founder of DiscoverEd Consulting and host of the conference said, “What makes this conference so unique, is how it brings together world class leaders of every individual subject featured – each topic and each speaker could host an entire conference all for itself. And here they are all coming together in one showcase all specifically for early childhood leaders”.
The conference is completely virtual. Which allows participants to sign in and watch the sessions from the comfort of their own homes using their computer, laptop or phone. It will be online for free from Sunday, February 12th, until Thursday, February 16th.
