Why are there different trainings for different levels?
These trainings are designed to offer in-depth training in the developmental level and subject matter of each age-specific curriculum. Training for the Grades K-1 program focuses on using age-appropriate language, establishing a safe and engaging classroom, working with parents, and leading songs and activities. Training for the Grades 7-9 program focuses more on understanding and addressing the specific developmental issues of early adolescents. When trainings combine the K-1 and 4-6 or 7-9 and 10-12, time is given to each age level.
