Observation and Assessment in Early Childhood Education

---

To provide children with a safe and nurturing learning environment and to maintain program
effectiveness, teachers must incorporate observation, documentation and assessment into
their daily routines. To truly be effective, teachers must develop skills and strategies that are
grounded in best practices. In this chapter you will be presented with information that
highlights how observation and documentation can be used as a key strategy to ensure
intentional teaching. You will examine the initial steps to take to becoming a skilled observer,
and you will reflect on how to objectively document the interactions that you see and the
conversations that you hear. It is important to note that becoming a skilled observer takes time
and practice, and that learning how to incorporate observation, documentation and
assessment into your regular routines and daily duties requires some thoughtful consideration.
