Special Thanks The communication and collaboration course is a motivated learning opportunity which I need to use to improve my communication skills as a leader in early childhood setting. Also, it has helped me to reflect on my self-awareness, knowledge, and understanding. Every topic leads me to know how I can make a change when it comes to negative matters and issues to be positive by applying and using what I learned.

We decided to celebrate our...

Nonviolent communication and conflict Management

Nonviolent communication and conflict Management             At workplace we celebrate different activities and occasions for children and staff throughout the year. Three years ago, a new teacher joins our school. She doesn’t want to participate in these activities at all. Every time she has an excuse which is these activities are not required for the job. So when we have a meeting she always would bring up this issue that she is not part of these activities which excludes herself from the group by not sitting with us at lunchtime, not chatting with anyone.   This behavior bothers the other teachers who are working at this site for more than twenty years and who get used to doing a lot of fun activities and celebration. Those teachers love to make the work environment motivated and feel like home. I took the initiative to talk to the new teacher to explain the benefits of doing these activities for the children and their f...
