Summary
*In-person, Moscow Mills
Building relationships with children, families, and teachers are three of the most important aspects of being and early childhood educator. Teachers need to develop a strong, positive relationship with each child in their class, in order for them to be able to teach them and make an impact. Building relationships with the child's family is also crucial to educating a child because families are experts on their children. By cultivating a positive relationship with families, teachers are able to have difficult conversations, share knowledge, and work collaboratively toward the same goal of educating the child. Having strong relationships with fellow teachers is important for a staff's culture and to implement a strong support system.
