Preparing Children for Success With the Common Core State Standards

Children need well developed social-emotional and general cognitive skills to be successful content learners. Our comprehensive Webinar, hosted by Kai-leé Berke, author of Teaching Strategies GOLD® and The Creative Curriculum®, and Breeyn Mack, author of Coaching to Fidelity, will explore:

  • the important roles that social-emotional and cognitive
    development play in preparing children to be ready for
    Kindergarten and beyond
  • the progression of teaching and learning social-emotional and cognitive skills from birth through Kindergarten
  • how skills like building positive approaches to learning, self-regulation, and sustaining meaningful relationships are deeply related to content learning

Using examples from The Creative Curriculum® and Teaching Strategies GOLD®, this Webinar will focus specifically on the knowledge, skills and behaviors related to social-emotional and cognitive development that help lay the foundation for later success with the Common Core State Standards.

NOTE: We do not offer certificates of participation or completion for our Webinars.
