A MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR Dear Educators, This fall, adjusting to the new school year will be a transition like no other—with celebrations of being back together along with the inevitable ups and downs that every year brings. Given the circumstances of last year, this one also brings a renewed emphasis on assessing the social-emotional and cognitive development of your students. CPS faculty have finetuned our online workshops to guide you as you return to school. Join us for our Special Series on Trauma and Resilience (p. 2) and courses like Normalizing Vulnerability (p. 6) and Mindfulness in Education (p. 4) that support healthy classrooms and educational spaces. Constructing a Democratic Classroom (p. 3), Play-based Curriculum (p. 3) and The Power of Student Agency (p. 6) provide strategies for creating classrooms where students excel. The Youngest Scientist (p. 3) and The Essential OrtonGillingham (p. 4) courses are fall favorites for expanding your content repertoire. Bank Street also provides staff development tailored to your goals and budget. Visit graduate.bankstreet.edu/cps/educator-resources/school-based-professional-development/ to learn more about our recent partnership with schools and community-based organizations. Please feel free to contact me directly at jellebbane@bankstreet.edu at any time during the year for a free consultation. Sincerely,

SPECIAL SERIES Trauma and Resilience
The pandemic forced many to think about the ways trauma affects children’s lives. This three-part series will take a deep look at how the body reacts to trauma and the impact of trauma on development. Participants will learn strategies for creating supportive environments and practices including asset-based tools that reflect a child’s ability to strengthen resilience and heal. Although each workshop will build on the previous one, presentations can be taken individually or as a series. Facilitator: Genevieve Lowry Presentation 1

EARLY CHILDHOOD All courses will meet online for synchronous sessions at the times listed. Courses offered for 6 or more CTLE may include asynchronous activities, as noted. Directions for accessing the online course will be emailed upon registration. TEED656N Constructing a Democratic Classroom: Focus on Routines, Rules, and Transitions (Ages 3–9 Years) outines, rules, and transitions may be thought of as providing the framework for the daily life of the classroom. The way in which they are constructed and carried out strongly affects the social, moral, and academic atmosphere in the setting. What does democracy mean in relation to routines, rules, and transitions? How can children have a voice in determining them? The ultimate goal is not simply to create order, but also to encourage the development of both autonomy and a caring community. Topics to be considered are views of the nature of the child, developmental appropriateness, flexibility, the needs of English language learners and children with developmental variations, issues around power and control, the meaning of resistance, and how routines and transitions relate to academic learning and the various curriculum areas, particularly social studies. Teachers will examine and analyze the structures in their own and each others’ classrooms. Instructor: Candace Barriteau Phaire Online November 8, 10, 15, and 17* Mondays and Wednesdays, 5:30 PM–7:30 PM ET *2.5 hours of asynchronous work required 12 CTLE or 1.2 CEU $425 / 1 credit $1,710 Registration Deadline: 11/1 TEWS826N Play-Based Curriculum in the Early Childhood Classroom (Preschool–Grade 1) We will explore the role of play in a content-rich and developmentally appropriate classroom and discuss the theory and application of play as a medium for learning in young children; the assessment of behavior and content through play; and the creation of play/learning environments in a variety of educational settings. In addition, we will learn how to communicate with families to calm their fears and clarify the educational value of play. You will leave with strategies and techniques to expand your current play-based curriculum, in both virtual and socially distanced classrooms, or introduce play-based activities to your traditional setting.

TEED654N The Reggio-Emilia Approach: From Theory to Practice (Ages Infant–5 Years) The early childhood program found in Reggio-Emilia, Italy, incorporates an emphasis on the learning environment, process versus product, developmentally appropriate practice, and the importance of the community of learners. Much of this philosophy reflects the culture of the Italians and is difficult to re-create in the United States. This course is meant to provide an introduction to the approach and will attempt to bridge the Reggio-Emilia theory with American culture. We will view the Reggio-Emilia approach as a means to combat the pushdown curriculum, competition, product over process, and the jumping/ skipping of learning stages we are now experiencing in this country.

Some areas covered include: using your senses and scientific tools, science in the air, approaching art and cooking as science, studying living things, and additional adventures in chemistry, physics, electricity, and magnets. The session will address the current educational situation in New York City and the United States and will include strategies and techniques for remote learning.
