Child-Sensitive Teaching Training Guide

by Karyn Henley, Kristi J. West (Editor), Joe Stites (Illustrator)

The Child-Sensitive Teaching Training Guide provides practical and creative training sessions for parents, child-care professionals, or volunteer teachers. Just photocopy the pages you need to make handouts and you are ready to equip your teachers and parents to communicate sensitively and effectively with their children. This material was developed by Karyn Henley from her 30+ years in the classroom. It is most effective when used as a companion to Karyn's textbook, Child Sensitive Teaching. Topics the four storytelling tools you carry everywhere; the variety of factors that affect learning; how to organize your time more efficiently; characteristics of children at different ages; how to correct misbehavior with confidence, kindness and creativity; how to become a more effective communicator with young children; why and how to teach children to memorize Scripture; ways to involve parents in the classroom; how to set up and operate learning centers in the classroom; building relationships with children through play and why play is important. The Child-Sensitive Teaching Training Guide was originally published as a series of individual publications called The Teacher Training Folders, which are now consolidated into this one handy volume. The intended context of this material is religious education but the principles presented are applicable to any setting where adults are teaching children.

About the author

I write young adult fiction about embracing uncertainty and discovering who you are. To me, life is story and story is life, and figuring out each is a process of exploring paths and seeing where they lead. In my novels, I explore losing what you thought was your path but finding another way, questioning taken-for-granted beliefs, and holding on when you think you can't. I love nature, travel, and pondering the mystery we call God.
