'Early Years:
Principles into Multi Sensory Practice'


Maria Robinson, nationally known early years practitioner and Open University author with
Flo Longhorn & Richard Hirstwood

This dynamic workshop offers a deeper understanding of how positive relationships and enabling multi sensory environments form the foundation for every child’s unique development.

Three themes are explored, linked to learning and early developmental levels.

Positive relationships - Maria Robinson. This examines the developing brain and the role of empathy - seen as essential for the support of early levels of development.

The unique child - Flo Longhorn looks at how development and learning happen in different ways and at different levels, with particular reference to the special child and sensory development.

Enabling environments are demonstrated by Richard Hirstwood who will delight the audience with exciting environments that can support learning safely and with a touch of magic.

Audience
All those working in early years settings including Sure Start, education and therapists working in special primary school settings.
