Do you feel like the ‘temperature’ in your learning setting is too hot or too cold some days? Are children or colleagues having trouble connecting or working and playing together productively? Are you struggling to get a handle on what’s wrong? You are not alone! Join this exciting session by Kristen Darling, MPP, for a reflective journey on your role in setting the thermostat (rather than just reading it!) and creating the kind of learning environment in which both children and staff will thrive.

Whether you are a teacher, administrator, or play a support role, this session is for you. During this webinar, we will talk about the power of our influence and how we as individuals can shape the educational experience children and adults have in our programs.

By attending, you will gain insight into:

• How your style or approach influences classroom or program climate and functioning

• Ways to ‘take the temperature’, read the room, and respond effectively

• Options for engaging children and adults that will get you closer to your desired result

• Language and behavior changes you can make to set everyone up for success

At the end of the webinar, you will:

• Have a deeper understanding of your personal influence in your classroom/program

• Bring more empathy to the experiences of the children and colleagues you work with

• Understand different options for adjusting your management approach in a given moment

• Have a list of conversation starters to share with peers as you support each other on a continuous improvement journey as high-quality classroom or program managers
