As young children embark on their first 100-day journey into the world of friendships, feelings, and teamwork. Teachers provide structured routines, storytelling, imaginative play, and guided peer interactions, and young learners develop essential social-emotional skills that help them thrive in group settings. Each week builds upon the last, and in this course, we will focus on developing empathy, effective listening, respecting personal space, and clearly expressing our needs with words. By Day 100, you will plan a celebration of the skills and learning, as well as the friendships that have been formed. This is an excellent opportunity to celebrate with the families coming to the program.
