Dr. Joshua Sparrow

Joshua Sparrow, M.D., DFAACAP, is executive director of the Brazelton Touchpoints Center (BTC) in the Division of Development of Medicine at Boston Children's Hospital, where he also holds an appointment in the Department of Psychiatry, and is an associate professor at Harvard Medical school, part time. Dr. Sparrow's care in the 1990s for children hospitalized for severe psychiatric disturbances, often associated with physical and sexual abuse, and for developmental delays aggravated by social and economic deprivation and injustice, prompted his interest in the social determinants of health, racial health inequities, trauma and historical trauma, and community-based prevention and health promotion. At BTC, Dr. Sparrow's work focuses on organizational learning and change, and aligning systems of care with community strengths and priorities. BTC provides professional, organizational and leadership development, community based participatory research, and developmental program evaluation for family-facing professionals in pediatrics, early childhood care and education, infant mental health, home visiting, child welfare, public libraries and children's museums. Dr. Sparrow began working with young children at age 13 and did so every summer through most of college. After graduating from college, he taught in preschools (2 year old and 4 year old classrooms) for a few years before deciding to go to medical school. www.brazeltontouchpoints.org.

Young children develop mathematical thinking through movement, exploration, and sensory exploration. Learn how outdoor environments naturally support early math learning through hands-on, inquiry-based experiences aligned with the PTKLF.

Participants will explore developmentally appropriate strategies for supporting number sense, measurement, patterning, spatial awareness, problem solving, and mathematical reasoning with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Emphasis will be placed on child-led exploration, open-ended materials, creativity, experimentation, and learning through active discovery using nature, sensory play, loose parts, and outdoor environments.

Through interactive discussions, collaborative activities, and practical planning opportunities, educators will learn how to create meaningful outdoor math invitations that encourage curiosity, investigation, critical thinking, and joyful engagement in learning.

This series includes two interactive workshops.

VIPs of Behavior is a six-part professional learning series. Together we'll explore some of the less obvious forces that shape children's behavior.  The way a child processes movement, body position, internal sensations, and cues of safety have a powerful effect on attention, emotional regulation, relationships, participation, and behavior. Over six interactive, two-hour sessions, you will explore:

·         Sensory Integration & Behavior: Too much, too little, or just right?

·         Vestibular Processing: Struggling to sit still, crashing into others, always on the go, learn what drives movement seeking behavior.

·         Interoception: Physical and emotional outbursts that come "out of nowhere" can be some of the trickiest to understand, explore the system that can clue us in.

·         Proprioception: Children who "don't know their own strength" and behave in ways that are rough, impulsive or aggressive can create a sense of fear in both children and adults.

·         Neuroception: Fight, flight, and freeze are essential for survival, but they aren't learning states.

·         Putting It All Together: Time to put it all together, problem solve and apply what we have learned to real situations in your everyday lives.

Each session will include hands-on activities and opportunities to experience and apply concepts, not just hear about them. Come prepared to move, experience, question, discuss, and look at behavior in a whole new way.

Module 200: Pre-K

Module 200 builds on the Module 100 concepts by creating an opportunity to practically apply the trauma-responsive and resilience-building practices.  In this module, we take a deeper dive into the trauma-responsive strategies by providing an opportunity for educators to practice using the strategies through interactive activities, engaging in reflective conversations sharing implementation practices.  The following are the key practices from Module 100 that will be reviewed and practiced: - Teaching children about the Brain, Attuned Responsive and Nurturing Relationships, Safe and Predictable Environments, Body Awareness and Strengthening Sensory and Emotional Literacy, Self-Regulation and Learning to Manage Big Emotions.

Prerequisite: Mod 100: Pre-K

This training will be conducted via Zoom

Audience: Early childhood educators, trainers, coaches, administrators (working with and/or supporting people who work with ages 3-8) who have previously attended module 100 pre-k.

Module 300: Strengthening Self-Awareness and Self-Care to Reduce Stress

In this module, you will learn about how cultivating self-awareness and self-care can buffer and protect you from long-term adverse effects of chronic, toxic or traumatic stress. Self-awareness and self-care also will allow one to have the restored energy reserves to prevent burnout. These concepts are foundational to trauma-informed work as teachers and caregivers cultivating these practices respond to children's dysregulated behavior with regulation, compassion and trauma-responsive strategies versus reactive and trauma-inducing. It also results in more protective factors for you and more joy in living in the present moment.

Audience: Early childhood educators, trainers, coaches, administrators (working with and/or supporting people who work with ages 0-8).
