Caring for Preschool Children: A Supervised, Self-Instructional Training Program. Volume II.
Dodge, Diane Trister; And Others
This volume, the second of two, offers a supervised, self-instructional training program for the professional development of child caregivers. The volume provides orientation materials and seven training modules that are organized around functional areas of the Child Development Associate (CDA) Competency Standards. These areas concern the provision of opportunities for children to be creative, to feel successful and competent, develop social skills, and acquire self-control, for parents to participate in and receive support from the child care program, for service providers to skillfully manage their program or business, and for child caregivers to develop professionally. The training program provides to teachers materials that: (1) become their personal resource and journal for working with preschool children; (2) are appropriate for new as well as experienced teachers; (3) are individualized so that teachers work on their own schedule and at their own pace; (4) may be used in any order; and (5) are practical and immediately applicable to the classroom. Each of the seven modules includes an overview, a pre-training assessment, four to seven learning activities, an end-of-module self-review, a list of additional readings, answer sheets, and a glossary.
