Documenting Children’s Learning: Making Learning Visible

In their years of experience, Patricia and Sali have tried and tested many different forms of demonstrating children’s work and play through a variety of documentation types. Participants will:

° Discover how to make children’s learning visible and present their learning beyond reports and bulletin boards.

° Learn the importance of making learning visible to children, families and educators.

° Gain practical and simple ideas that can be implemented in any setting to support learning and bridge relationships with families and educators.

° Discover how documentation can inspire and support engaging curriculum planning.
