Description

Unlock the magic of teaching four-year-olds! This course is designed to help specialist teachers in Transition to Kindergarten, preK and preschool settings (e.g., music, PE, library) adapt their teaching strategies to meet the developmental needs of four-year-olds. It focuses on how teaching four-year-olds differs from teaching elementary-aged children and provides practical tips on implementing Universal Design for Learning (UDL) strategies and culturally responsive teaching (CRT) to support all learners.

Join this asynchronous course designed specifically for specialist teachers eager to make a lasting impact on their youngest students. The course provides examples for PE, music, and the library, but covers important content relevant to specialist teachers from any subject. Dive into developmentally appropriate strategies that enhance learning through engaging, hands-on activities tailored to each unique class setting. Discover fresh approaches to creating inclusive, joyful learning experiences that build confidence and skills in four-year-olds. Whether you’re new to early childhood education or looking to refine your approach, this online course will inspire you and enrich your practice.
