Keynote ? I've Been Transferred to an Infant Toddler Classroom, Now What?
Maybe you're new to the infant/toddler arena or you've been a part of infant/toddler education for years. Things
have changed! We all know that research indicates the importance of education for children 0-3. Therefore, more
and more is being asked of infant/toddler teachers. Intentional instruction for infants and toddlers is the
cornerstone of success. Let's go back to the basics and talk about child development, and then use that
knowledge to discuss the standards of infant/toddler education..
