How does observing and documenting a child’s development help early learning providers?

– Observing and documenting a child’s development can help providers see where a child is at and where they may need extra assistance. It also can help providers understand the child more and see what they are interested in and what they need help with. This can led the provider to create better personalized lesson plans and can even provide effective resources to help the growth and potential of a child. Understanding that each child develops at their own pace can make a child feel more trust and comfortable with their teacher and environment, which can help their self confidence and may even help the child more. Documentation is solid evidence that helps keep track of their progression and growth.
