About this Item

Neuware - Bridging the Gap: An Educator's Guide proposes an opportunity for parents and educators to work together to help our children gain a better awareness and understanding of themselves. The Educator's Guide is one of a two part series with the second part to be a Guide for Parents. The book provides information to help us as adults to look at our own behaviors and gain a better understanding of how we may be perceived not only by other adults, but also by the children we work with. In today's fast-paced society, children are being raised in homes where both parents have to work full-time or in a single parent home in which that parent works full-time in an attempt to make ends meet. Educators barely have enough time to make sure the child is meeting his/her educational goals. What's missing Quality time and efforts to enhance a child's basic emotional needs! This book is based on simplicity and fun and provides creative activities to enhance children's self-esteem and socialization skills. It will also provide you with opportunities for quality time to help build and establish communication, trust and rapport. If Bridging The Gap benefits one family, child, or educator to change the way they handle specific situations in a more effective and positive manner, then it has served its purpose. It is written in everyday language and is not to be made difficult in any way. That is the foundation for this program and this book, therefore, let's work together toward bridging the gap!
