Welcome to the next session in the Infant-Toddler Pyramid Model Training Series, where we are going to learn about developing emotional literacy and teaching about emotions. In this course we are going to discuss strategies and ideas for providing additional opportunities in the classroom that will support children’s understanding and expression of emotions.
