This is the participant's guide that accompanies the trainer's guide (see additional product information)for the Welcome the Children training sessions. It is not intended as a "stand alone" manual. The manual provides handouts for each of the two seven-hour training sessions presented through the Welcome the Children project. Module 1: “Cultural Diversity,” covers recognition and acceptance of cultural and linguistic diversity. Module 2: “Second Language Development and Assessment in Early Childhood,” covers the language and second language acquisition process for young children, how to assess children for language difference vs. language delay, and strategies for working with families to reinforce classroom activities.
