Description
"The purpose of this synthesis project was to design a professional development workshop targeted towards preschool teachers and administrators that focused on the importance of building secure teacher-child attachments and how those attachments can aid in children's social cognitive development. With teacher turnover rates at an all time high, many young children are experiencing multiple caregivers each year and are left feeling insecure in their environments (Commodari, 2012). The review of literature discussed the benefits of secure attachments for children, while examining both attachment theory and social cognitive theory. An emphasis was placed on teacher-child relationships with a focus on connection between attachment style and children's development. The two-hour professional development was implemented with three preschool teachers who also completed a survey and focus group about the effectiveness of the professional development. All the participants found the professional development to be beneficial and provided ideas for further development."--Abstract, p. 1.
