In last week's blog, we discussed how to make observations and collect data on children's learning moments and consistently collect the information into a superior child's portfolio. This week we will look into how this valuable data can be used to secure the quality of the preschool.

With the help of holistic reports and statistics, you can reveal a lot of children's learning and your center's way of tackling the curriculum!

With Kindiedays reports you can:

• illustrate children's progress
• see the individual child's progress in the curriculum’s learning objectives
• review statistics on how efficiently the curriculum has been applied
• guarantee that all the learning areas are in balance
• identify possible needs for learning
• plan future learning
• guarantee holistic learning in the center

Now you can show evidence of learning to parents as well as provide a competitive and profitable pedagogical service.

Learn which reports matter, but have not had the time and tools to create and utilize.

Portfolio and pedagogical documentation go hand in hand. Both focus on making the child's learning visible and enabling professional formative assessment of playful learning.

A portfolio is a compilation of various documents that show progress on the learning goals that are defined in the curriculum.

Pedagogical documentation aims to capture meaningful learning moments. Educators should then use these documents to modify their planning so that children learn even better.

Pedagogical documentation is an essential working method in early childhood education and it guarantees the best possible learning path for children. All valuable documents can be saved in a child's personal portfolio. But what type of documents should the portfolio include?

Documentation is observing for example children’s play, projects, discussions, ideas, and inventions via taking photos, making notes, writing down explanations as well as tricky questions, saving artwork, videoing action, recording voice...
