laura Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Hi As part of an assignment I need to devise a parent workshop that focuses on the development of under 2's. I have never had to do or seen a parent workshop and was hoping that you could give me some advice on the format of them. I am thinking of doing something about discovery bottles and treasure baskets, making it hands on for parents. I only have to prepare an outline of the workshop but wondered how other peopele ran them. Thank you x
Guest Posted April 13, 2009 Posted April 13, 2009 Any workshop you need to have an aim, and then objectives as to how you plan to meet the aim...ie bteotwtpwbatowh - translates to; By the end of the workshop the parents will be able to or will have........ within this aim try to include ksa (knowledge, skill, attitude) AIM: To introduce to Parents the benefits of Discovery Bottles for under 2's ie: Will become aware of how children discover through their senses (knowledge) Will discover how these bottles motivate curiosity (attitude) Will make a bottle to take away (skill) Maybe start the session with parents talking about a sensory experience they remember from their childhood. conclude this discussion with a bit of theory Explore a range of dicovery bottles Make a discovery bottle. Just a few thoughts, have fun is also a good objective. Peggy
