Center Name: Little Swans Child Care  | Location: Klamath Falls, Oregon

THE CHALLENGE

For all the hours she was putting into professional development, Vanessa Brown didn’t feel like she was growing as an educator. Instead, she found herself learning the same things over and over again. 

Vanessa is the owner and director of Little Swans Child Care in Klamath Falls, Oregon, a home-based childcare where the children grow to become more like a family. Vanessa has owned and operated her licensed childcare program for 7 years, and she’s completed her required 15 hours of professional development every year. But after 7 years and 105 hours of courses and seminars, Vanessa felt stuck. “I wasn’t expanding my knowledge, I was not getting better because the content available to me wasn’t changing”

If your answer is “yes” (and I’m sure it is), then this episode is for you!

Why is that?

Simply because in it, I’ll be discussing why kids may throw fits when they don’t get what they want, how to respond appropriately, and why “You get what you get and you don’t throw a fit” is never the right answer.

And to make this even more interesting, I’ve invited a guest! His name is Ron Shuali, and he is simply brilliant. 

Ron is a speaker and the bestselling author of Breaking the Bullying Circle. He has expertise in the preschool through middle school arena. And that is why he’s the perfect person to discuss this week’s subject with.

The 1st Grade Reading Comprehension: Quarter 2 is here! Teaching foundational reading comprehension skills at an early age is a vital part of overall reading success throughout a child’s school career. Therefore, I’ve been working hard to create a First Grade Reading Comprehension Curriculum to help maximize reading understanding and minimize the teacher’s workload!
