The principles of the Roots of Resilience program are also good teaching and learning strategies for <em>all <\/em>children because positive adult-child interactions nurture children\u2019s brain development.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this July blog we want to share general information about the teachers and children who have been participating in this study. Between October, 2018, and July, 2019, we worked with over <strong>30 teachers<\/strong> in<strong> 24 classrooms<\/strong> at <strong>18 separate locations<\/strong> (child care homes, centers, preschools, and Head Start programs). A total of <strong>292 children<\/strong> returned a parental consent form and\/or a parental survey, providing valuable information about young children in Central Oregon. From the 292, we selected up to <strong>4 children per classroom<\/strong> to participate in individualized observations and assessments. Approximately <strong>85 children assented<\/strong> to playing a movement game to measure self-regulation, completing numbers and letters tasks, and holding a cotton swab in their mouth to collect saliva to test for the stress hormone cortisol.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research team also clocked <strong>490 hours<\/strong> observing children, peers, and teachers during their regular activities. We also collected valuable information from Central Oregon Teachers about their experiences with the Roots of Resilience program (course and\/or coaching). So far, <strong>14 teachers<\/strong> have completed the 6-week online coaching program worth 6 Set 2 training hours and <strong>13 teachers<\/strong> have finished the online course, earning 30 Set 2 training hours. <strong>Eight teachers <\/strong>will have or have completed both the coaching and the course<strong>.<\/strong>\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Again, we thank you, the teachers, for allowing us into your classroom and participating in the research.
