Trying Together: Ordinary Moments, Meaningful Connections

Hosted by Trying Together

Trying Together, in partnership with Hosanna House, will host UnConference: Ordinary Moments, Meaningful Connections on Monday, October 12 at Hosanna House.

The foundation of quality in early learning settings begins with the everyday interactions that we share with one another. These simple and ordinary moments that take place during daily routines form the very foundation of learning and connection for young children and adults alike.

Focusing on the belief that meaningful learning happens within everyday moments, this UnConference highlights how connection, reciprocity, inclusion, and opportunities for growth emerge through adult-child interactions.

This UnConference is designed to support educators in cultivating classrooms where every child—and every adult—feels seen, heard, and valued. The event will include a keynote presentation by Dr. Junlei Li, Saul Zaentz Chair in Early Childhood Education at Harvard Graduate School of Education and creator of the Simple Interactions Tool. Dynamic morning and afternoon sessions will follow (see below for workshop descriptions). A light breakfast with coffee and tea and a boxed lunch will be provided.

A total of 4.5 PQAS and Act 48 credit hours are available. Those interested in attending should register by September 28.
