August Day Care Conferences

Posted by Carla Snuggs Aug 1, 2007

This month there are three exciting conferences that I’d like to bring to your attention.

August 14-17, 2007: Washington, DC.

The Creative Curriculum and You!

Teaching Strategies, Inc. is sponsoring The Creative Curriculum and You. The Creative Curriculum® approach is used extensively in Head Start programs in the United States and helps early childhood educators implement high-quality early childhood programs. The conference will introduce to you a system which integrates curriculum, assessment, training, and program evaluation and is a great opportunity to earn Continuing Education Units.

August 15-18, 2007: Anaheim, California

17th Annual NAFCC National Conference

Sponsored by the National Association for Family Child Care, and hosted by the California Association for Family Child Care, the Annual Conference is titled Family Child Care: Foundations for the Future. The conference, held at the Anaheim Marriott Hotel, will feature distinguished keynote speakers and address how to improve the quality of the field and discuss modern early childhood education practices.

August 28-30, 2007: Uncasville, Connecticut, United States

Spirit of Leadership, 2007 National Conference

Sponsored by National Indian Child Care Association (NICCA) and held at the Mohegan Sun Resort, this conference offers the opportunity to learn about tribal curriculum and culture and tour tribal child care centers. The conference features three days of workshops with Tribal leaders on a variety of topics such as “Natural Playgrounds”, “Being a Role Model for Physical Activity”, and “Infant/Toddler Curriculum”.
