CLASS in Three Acts: Learn, Practice, Reflect (Infant/Toddler) Part 1 and 2 Deb Norris

Sponsor: Vermont Association for the Education of Young Children (VTAEYC)
Instructor: Nikki Bearor

This virtual 1+1+1 series is designed for Infant, Toddler, and Family Child Care educators who are new to the updated CLASS® tool. Now combined into a single version for both age groups, this evidence-based system supports high-quality interactions that foster learning and development—and is a key part of Vermont’s QRIS (STARS). In the first session, educators will explore the new CLASS® domains and dimensions, view real classroom footage, and identify interaction strategies together. Between sessions, participants will try out a strategy in their setting, then return to reflect, share experiences, and strengthen their practice through peer learning.
