Successful Transitions with School-Aged Children
This course presents recommended strategies and practices for easing different types of transitions in the school-age care environment. This includes transitions from one setting or activity to another as well as life’s many other transitions, some of which arise unexpectedly. The cognitive and social-emotional skills required for successful classroom transitions are surprisingly similar to those required for making healthy, positive transitions through life’s many changes and surprises.

This course also provides comprehensive recommendations and strategies for organizing a classroom, facilitating group projects, managing a peer tutoring program, and much more.
