Learning Discipline: Connecting Discipline,
Communication, and Relationships.
This workshop concentrates on nurturing the development of self-discipline
in young children. Learning to respond positively to external discipline and
making the shift to internal discipline are tasks that are challenging for
many children. Helping children learn these skills can be difficult,
frustrating, and exhausting for all the adults in their lives. Because
of the challenges of discipline issues, people who work with young children
often burn out, resulting in high turnover which can be detrimental to young
children's need for constancy and security.
This 3 hour workshop from
Family Communications
(the production company for Mr. Roger's Neighborhood)
offers productive new ways to think about discipline. Attendees learn to see
discipline as an opportunity for teaching rather than punishment, with the
goal of helping children move from externally-imposed discipline to internal
self-discipline. The workshop demonstrates how good clear communication
combines with strong relationships to give children the support and tools
they need. Practical strategies are offered. The workshop format includes
the use of provocative video segments, large and small group discussions,
and hands-on activities.
The specific goals of the
Learning Discipline
workshop are that participants will understand:
- How adults help children learn discipline;
- Connections between discipline, communication, and
relationships;
- Impact of self-awareness within the discipline,
communication, and relationship cycle.
