An Adult-Child Partnership Approach to Problem-Solving and Conflict Resolution

This session will explore how the creation of supportive, child-centered physical and social environments enable the active involvement of children and adults in problem-solving processes and conflict resolution strategies. Participants will be introduced to three preventative strategies: environmental support, daily routine support, and caregiver support, and will consider, identify, and note steps that can be taken in their classrooms to support further implementation of the ideas and practice discussed in this session.
