This best practices guide is designed to provide a framework for continuous quality improvement. This toolkit consists of ten chapters. The first chapter introduces the Generations approach to understanding school -age care and identifies how Environments, Relationships, and Experiences (ERE) influence children’s growth and development. Each subsequent chapter highlights a specific content area related to “best practices ” and engages the reader in transfer of knowledge and reflection through stories, examples, inquiries, charts, and strategies for implementation. Each chapter can be used as a stand-alone resource for professional development, staff meetings, and independent research or study by practitioners. Look for guidelines, concrete activity ideas, and unique strategies for supporting children’s development and best practices in program design.
