Through observation and documentation, childcare providers learn children individualized needs and help childcare programs keep a record of children development. Typically, children can achieve milestones at different times within a certain range and it is consider normal development. So by observing kids in the classroom, we learn if that particular child is achieving his/her milestones, if we need to plan the curriculum differently for them to get there, or red flags that we need to pay attention to in order to help the child.
