Strategies to Help Every Child Fly in Inclusive Early Childhood Classrooms and Programs, by Iheoma U. Iruka, Ph.D. and Jani Kozlowski, M.A.

It was produced in partnership with Equity Research Action Coalition at UNC Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute.

 

We believe that by building secure relationships and trust with children and families, educators can facilitate a culture of belonging, caring, and kindness. Join acclaimed early childhood education researcher and author Iheoma U. Iruka, Ph.D., and early childhood disabilities and child development expert Jani Kozlowski, M.A., to learn strategies that foster inclusive learning environments, individualized teaching practices, and meaningful family engagement.

As an early childhood professional with a disability, a child of a parent with a disability, and the mother of a son with a disability, Jani Kozlowski, author of Every Child Can Fly: An Early Childhood Educator’s Guide to Inclusion, brings a unique perspective to the inclusion of children with disabilities in early childhood settings. In this webinar, Jani will share personal stories, current research and evidence-based practices for educators, coaches, trainers, and leaders in Head Start, child care, and prekindergarten programs.

In this webinar, you will:

• Apply lessons learned from research on inclusion, access, and equity to promote and practice high-quality inclusion in early childhood environments
• Build skills and confidence for meeting the needs of every child
• Develop secure relationships with children and families that can reduce stress and build trust
