“I was hoping for more information about typical child development and some compare and contrast with the populations we work with. The presentation was much more about assessments, examples of goals for this population, and specific teaching tips for this age range. Great presentation, just not what I was expecting based on the title.”
— Deva C.“Good review- useful reminders when training new staff”
— Kimberley L.“Wish she focused more on development - but I appreciated the example goals and how they align with what a kid can do at this age (developmentally)”
— Sara J.“Kelly did an awesome job presenting!”
— Angela M.“Phenomenal CEU! You should look into the Early Start Denver Model as it’s really about programming for early learners through natural opportunities and play.”
— Sophie W.
