The Power of Your Words: How Effective Communication Supports Child Development
Marcy Bourdo - NTMI Instructor
As educators, we thoughtfully prepare child-focused classroom environments, but do we show that same care in our daily communication with students? Join NTMI Instructor and veteran presenter, Marcy Bourdo, to discover how the effective use of language supports a child's development through building trust, shaping behavior, fostering independence and developing intrinsic motivation.
Session 2 – 10 a.m.
From Past to Present: Connecting the Cosmic Curriculum with Concepts in Modern Education
