Observation Preparation
- Classroom Management
- Emotional Support
- Instructional Support
Our Observational Prep Training will ensure clarity in understanding the Domains and Dimensions of how the teacher and the child interact.
The Dimensions are organized into three Domains: Emotional Support, Classroom Management, and Supporting Instruction
- Emotional Support assesses the degree to which teachers establish and promote a positive climate in their classroom through their everyday interactions.
- Classroom Management assesses classroom routines and procedures related to the organization and management of children’s behavior, time and attention in the classroom.
- Instructional Support assesses the ways in which teachers implement the curriculum to effectively promote cognitive and language development.
We will examine strategies that teachers use to promote children’s higher order thinking skills and language development.
We’re also going to focus on how teachers use feedback to help children learn.
Participants will be introduced to various educational methods of engaging children in purposeful and meaningful conversations that foster concept development and vocabulary enrichment.
We will showcase different language modeling that provoke back and forth exchanges with children techniques.

Learning Objectives
- Define instructional discussion and share techniques to create activities that promote children’s hight order of thinking (Concept Development)
- Define and showcase examples of quality feedback that will expand learning opportunities.
- Discuss and exhibit language-stimulation and language-facilitation techniques that will extend a child’s oral vocabulary and their oral language skills.

Measureable Outcomes
- Participants will understand what is necessary to create activities to promote higher thinking.
- Increased level of understanding quality of feedback needed to expand learning opportunities for children.
- Teachers will understand the importance of language stimulation and become more confident in developing techniques.
- Participants will be able to create and present an activity by using selected materials (provided by trainer) that incorporate concept development, vocabulary enrichment, and higher thinking order skills.
Testimonials
Our Program kicked off our parenting curriculum with a parent rally. The kids were entertained with a concert by Shawn, while Sheryl talked to our parents about the curriculum. Children and parents alike were captivated! Many parents came to Sheryl afterwards to ask her more questions or ask for her advice.
We have received a very positive response to the curriculum from parents and look forward to seeing the positive child outcomes as a result of implementing it.

Please share with Mr. Shawn Brown how much attendees at the Texas Head Start Association Conference enjoyed his presentation! I also heard his products were a hit and his wife was so pleasant. I need to go to the website and see what is available for my agency.
Again, thank you so much. It really made the end of a very successful conference even more successful!
