| Book Description | In response to growing pressure on early years practitioners to adopt a `tick-box' approach to recording children's progress, Celebrating Children's Learning sets out a bold, alternative vision for assessment in the early years. Drawing upon an inspiring collaboration between London nursery schools, this book explores and reconsiders the purpose of observation in early years settings. Contributors provide a range of examples to guide early years practitioners as they develop their own methods of observation. Play, social interaction, and cooperation with parents are shown to be valuable opportunities for keen observation. Chapters discuss: - moving beyond data-focussed assesment - Characteristics of Effective Learning - ensuring inclusive assessment - collaborating with parents from diverse backgrounds - outdoor learning - a Forest School approach. Inspiring and empowering, Celebrating Children's Learning is essential reading for teachers, practitioners, and students involved in early education. |
| Editorial Review | "Within these pages you will find rich stories of children's development, play and learning that offer profound glimpses and insights. Practitioners in these nursery schools offer expertise in assessment that truly starts with the child and puts learning first. The rest of our education system would do well to remember this premise and to act upon it." Professor Dame Alison Peacock, Chief Executive, Chartered College of Teaching "In this book, you will find assessment used as a means to build a deep and insightful understanding of children, moving beyond data-obsessed assessments towards something altogether more supportive of children's experiences" Neil Henty, eye |
