Are You Ready for the Next Step in Teacher Development? A growing portion of children in our classrooms demonstrate a wide range of learning differences for which we need additional preparation. Some of these are: abilities in specific modes of learning; comprehension and memory weaknesses; social challenges and developmental hindrances. Teachers often ask about creating effective environments for these children. What activities can be included that will provide general or individual practice and bring more balance to a child’s experience?
If you would like to learn more about the children of today and how to guide them, WISM is working with the Association of Healing Education to offer you a beginning step into the AHE educational support program. This enrollment path lets you choose your level of deepening over time. Whether you’re considering a future as a remedial teacher… OR you’re a Class Teacher who would like to build a deeper foundation… this WISM elective offered through AHE allows you to participate in the first two sessions of year-one in the three-year AHE program. You may continue independently with AHE in subsequent years if you chose to obtain your remedial educational support certificatation.
Fall topics include: reading the child and creating learning sensitive environments; developmental milestones; classroom activities and games. (March 21-24, 2013, Spring topics are: the synergetic effect of child study; working with the foundation senses such as tactile defensiveness; and more classroom applications.) Learn more at the AHE website or view the AHE broshure. If you would like to proceed with requesting registration in this class, please contact us at: 734 635-4143 or email info@waldorfsemi.org.
