Time: 4.30pm – 6.00pm

An educator’s knowledge, insights and questions about children’s thinking and learning is shared through meaningful, well written documentation. It should draw the reader in and invite the reader to take away new ideas about children’s capabilities and learning potentials. It should also elicit respect for the professional skills of the educator.
Pedagogical documentation should inform planning that is responsive and complex beyond a reductive focus on behaviour or predetermined outcomes.
