Description:

Lecture series: Building the Foundations for Healthy Early Learning

St. Margaret's School is pleased to present the second lecture in their series on Early Childhood Education.
Young children are developing and learning at an unprecedented rate. They learn best when learning is active and stimulating. Please join us for vibrant and interactive presentations that explore how parents, educators, caregivers and community members can participate in children’s early learning.

This month:  Game Setting to Foster Self-Confidence and Thinking in Early Childhood?

This presentation focuses on the importance of the role parents play (and can play) in fostering the development of number sense, spatial sense, risk-taking and self-confidence as well as the ability to think flexibly.

Please see the attached file for further information on the lecture series, joining others for a dinner prior to the presentation, child minding and registration.
