- Incredible Years - Newsletter
Hello from The Incredible Years
We hope all is going well with your Incredible Years Parent, Teacher or Child groups. This e-newsletter is to update you on a few changes and new materials!
Program Supplemental MaterialsPlease visit our recently revised Supplemental Materials pages – organized on the main menu by each program. We think you’ll love it! There are many more pictures of the material items we sell along with useful tips and how-to ideas for your groups and classes. Teacher Classroom Management ProgramFor those of you delivering this program, be sure to see the new 6-day teacher training protocol on the web site. http://www.incredibleyears.com/Resources/TP.asp Notice some of the new materials we have made available to teachers who participate in this training. (See photos of the recommended items at left.)
For workshop #1
For workshop #2
For workshop #3
For workshop #4 and #5
For workshop #6 Also notice the teacher self-reflection checklists that teachers complete after each workshop, as they are trying out the strategies in their classrooms. Parent Training ProgramsNotice the new Baby Brain Development poster we are using in the baby program that helps them understand how they are strengthening particular neuron connections. For the parent program be sure to see the 18-20 session protocols for the updated preschool program. Also notice the teaching tool kit –these are fun to use with parents (and teachers) to review all the tools they are learning to use.
New Recently Published ArticlesThe first one is an update on all the research done with these programs.
Webster-Stratton, C., & Reid, M. J. (2010). The 2nd article is about delivering the program to child welfare families with fidelity:
Webster-Stratton, C., & Reid, M. J. (2010). The 3rd article is about working with schools to deliver evidence-based programs:
Webster-Stratton, C., & Herman, K. C. (2010). Accreditation - Certification
Enhance your chances for certification/accreditation – schedule
telephone consultations and/or agency group video consultations Please see our new "Tips for a Successful DVD Review" for submitting videos to us for review on this page of the web site. (Follow this link, look on the right hand side of the page.) http://www.incredibleyears.com/Certification/process_GL.asp It usually takes a certified mentor 4-5 hours to review a 2-hour tape and to write up a report. Actually we believe this is a very inexpensive way to get supervision as the fee includes two complete reviews for each leader. Additional review is charged an hourly rate, and usually takes three hours. NOTE: When you send your materials for certification, please make sure to package them well, and indicate a return address on the outside. We recently received a large envelope that had burst out at one side, and all the contents were gone. Unfortunately there was no return address information on the outside, so we only know it came from the UK. Please feel free to communicate with us when you've sent your pack and we can let you know of its safe arrival. New New Documents to Promote Fidelity and SustainabilityWe have developed a pyramid and a document called Training and Dissemination Model: Eight Strategies for Delivering IY Programs With Fidelity and Assuring Long Term Sustainability. This gives leaders and administrators clear guidance for how to promote quality delivery with fidelity right from the start. We have also developed two infrastructure diagrams, to help promote sustainability as well, for the teacher program and the parent program. All these documents can be found here: http://www.incredibleyears.com/IA/implementation.asp New Workshops Coming Up
