Group A

Building our safe space through Positive Behaviour Support

Successful classroom management is one of the first few essential skills that every classroom teacher needs to have. With the ever-changing characteristics and needs of the young children, teachers are now challenged to create classrooms that are psychologically safe as they work to understand and embrace the unique needs of the children. In this session, the facilitators aim to share practical classroom strategies using the Positive Behaviour Support framework to support children in their classrooms.

Speakers: Ms Julia & Ms Rita [NTUC First Campus]

How Do We Identify Preschoolers Who Are At Risk of Early Literacy Difficulties?

“The child is just slow, right?”, “He/she will catch up! Just wait and see!” Is this really the case? How do you identify a preschool child who is at risk of developing early literacy difficulties? Where do you get help? What can you do as an educator or a parent to support your child in class or home? Join the DAS Educational Therapists in this fun and informative session to have your questions answered.

Speakers: Ms Weng Yiyao & Ms Shakthi Bavani [DAS]
