Description
Presented by Ali Porteous.
How do we foster and create an environment and learning opportunities that allow our tamariki to be imaginative, creative and curious while at the same time discovering, navigating and learning about themselves, others, places and things? Through curriculum planning and quality documentation of course!
The idea of curriculum planning and assessment might bring forth thoughts of extra mahi for us as kaiako. However, it should be an embedded part of what we do in our services everyday and if we are clever about it, we can do this meaningfully and authentically document it without creating a lot of extra paperwork, while still having lots of fun and learning alongside our tamariki.
Participants will
- Discover innovative ways of writing learning stories and explore the key features that a learning story needs to include to make it high quality.
- Discover how you can use learning stories to create continuity of learning for children.
- Explore what meaningful learning looks like for tamariki and how to document it in an authentic manner.
- Unpack the Childspace framework for individual and group curriculum planning which follows the formative assessment sequence of notice, recognise, respond, and revisit.
- Understand what creating an authentic localised curriculum means and what this could look like in your service.
This course runs from 9am to 12Noon (morning tea provided)
