As early childhood educators, we often have to think about a very important question: How can we best see and understand how our students are growing, and how can we use evaluations as a dynamic way to teach, give feedback, and get students involved? Using assessments, particularly those rooted in observation, offers a clear lens to analyse and understand your students' development, helping refine your teaching methods. Evaluations aren't just grades; they're milestones. They help students recall what they've learned, apply their knowledge, and evaluate their journey. With self-evaluation, we're enabling them to create a roadmap for their learning, allowing them to take stock of their achievements and set goals. In this training, we'll examine the tools and resources available for assessment, guiding you on effectively implementing and evaluating them for the best outcomes. Sharing these insights ensures we're all aligned, collaborating towards the holistic development of every child. Assessments aren't just numbers. They're instruments we use to guide, inspire, and communicate not only with the student but with the parents as well. Join me in involving our students in their learning journey. Through assessment, we can boost their confidence and motivation, genuinely making a difference in how they perceive and engage with their learning.
