Introduction to CLASS: Infant Deb Norris

Special Topics:
Sponsor: Vermont Association of the Education of Young Children
Instructor: Nichole Bearor

Caring for infants goes beyond only meeting their physical needs. Current developmental theory, based on mountainous piles of research, confirms that nurturing relationships and responsive interactions are the quality markers of effective learning environments for our youngest children. During this training, we will explore the Infant CLassroom Assessment Scoring System, or CLASS, tool to better understand how we can make more meaningful connections with the infants within our care. Participants will examine specific CLASS dimensions and indicators, explore simple ways to incorporate learning interactions throughout the day, and discuss practices that foster positive growth and development for these young children.
