Webinar - Discipline That Does Not Divide
Online Thursday, January 11, 2024 from 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
Many of the prevailing discipline practices that parents, educators and caregivers use today prevent or erode healthy attachment with the children in their care. Patti will outline several principles of discipline that promote attachment between the parent/educator and a child, and that are developmentally appropriate. We can indeed help children and guide their behaviour, without damaging the relationship. Patti will give practical suggestions and examples to show how to incorporate them into our daily lives with our children.
Living Inquiries:
- Well-being and Belonging.
- Engagement with others, materials, and the world.
- Communication and literacies.
- Identities, social responsibility, and diversity.
Pathways:
- Every child is a gift.
- Emotions, thoughts, and views.
- Interests and inquiries.
- Knowledge and theories.
- Time for engagement.
- Individual differences.
Suitable for ECE students, parents, adult instructors/administrators, intermediate and experienced early care and learning professionals working with children of all ages, from infants/toddlers to school age children, including children with extra support needs.

We are all guests in the training room. In an effort to maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask that we follow these guidelines:
- Respect people’s choices, experiences and feelings.
- One person speaks at a time.
- Participate actively by including your voice and make space for other voices to be heard.
- Respect confidentiality, what is said in the group, stays in the group. Speak in private with the instructor if necessary.
- Assume the best intent. This is a space to learn and sometimes that means making mistakes.
- Take care of yourself, whatever that may look like.
- Mute your microphone to reduce background noise and unmute it for group discussions, to comment or ask questions.
