Centers need to be cooperating with each other rather Dr. Agnes than competing, M. Plenk, director of The Childrens Center, told the group. Dr. Plenk has been ev- given to training teachers and could how the government help In that area." Dr. Plenk said she would like to see a rating scale developed for child developers. No one would look to see if you have a degree. You'd be rated on warmth, limit setting and whether youre able to reach out in communication to a child. conducting the Day Care workshops for the group at the Center. She was assisted by Mrs. McSharry, psychiatric social worker formerly with the center. Theres only the need to be more concerned with the child himself rather than the physical aspects of the school, she said. Shirley Tbeir Own Standards Would Be Unlikely In discussing whether and how much the federal government should be involved in private day care centers, Dr. Plenk told the group they should come up with standards of their own. Perhaps you should look realistically at what the government could do for you . . . how you could work together.

Dress comes back for fall 8 License Required These day care centers are required by law to be licensed and have to meet certain established standards prior to accepting any child. Licensing acceptors visit these centers at any time without notice. Visits are also made by public nurses, state nutritionists, five department and sanitation personnel. Their findings are left with the centers director and the Division of Family Services. In home care, the Division of Family Services gives approval to a qualified individual to go into the home and provide care in absence of either parent, most often the mother. This could be in time of crisis or in a case of both parents in a job or university 'SZ be as educational for a child as school itself. Most people feel that nursary school is better than day care, but that is wrong. In day care, the child is there all day not just part of it," she said. In talking over the relationship between a director and her staff members, Dr. Plenk told them she thought it was the second-mos- t important consideration. The first, of course, is the caliber of your program." About a shortage of staff members, Mrs. McSharry noted that many seniors in high school who have completed most of their credits are interested in child development. A program could possibly be worked out for these students to wbrk part of the day with you. Dr. Plenk agreed but felt that the directors would have to be explicit on what their demands of the students would be and to tell them what their expectation level was.

Important Needs In going over variouj points made at the workshops, she said that two of the most important things for the group to remember is the need for pos-it- i. mess and communication. Tell the child that sand is for building, not throwing, Dr. Plenk said. Dont say Im sorry you cant throw sand. Youre not sorry. He should be sorry he threw it. Another goal she wanted them to work toward was that of reinforcing words by behavior. She said that threats are empty and dont lead any place unless theyre followed through with actions. And dont think every child is happy all the time . . . allow for conflict, she Think about what said. might have happened before he got there that could have made him irritable.
