Child Study is a Montessori-based approach to MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) and RTI (Response to Intervention). This summer we are offering Child Study Training as a six session intensive over the course of two weeks. This online training prepares educators to implement the Child Study Protocol in their school.
Session topics include:
- Fully-implemented Montessori practice
- Effective school-home communication & partnerships
- Timed, concise protocols for meetings, tools, forms, and guidelines for the work
- Data-driven planning and interventions
- Emotional support strategies
- Trauma-informed in-class practices
- Case studies & practice work
This Child Study Training includes readings, videos, written assignments, and six live sessions. Live sessions will be held the following days from 1:00-3:30pm ET:
- Monday, July 11
- Tuesday, July 12
- Wednesday, July 13
- Monday, July 18
- Tuesday, July 19
- Wednesday, July 20
