Our Team

Our Teachers are dedicated to documenting, sharing, and following their student’s Learning Stories. As a team we are dedicated to documentation as an act of love. Compiling each child’s learning journey with exquisite detail, inquiry, and curriculum development takes enormous training and daily growth.

“The Learning Stories Assessment approach is a form of observation and documentation that is written in a narrative story format. The teacher watches and listens as children explore through play. She may take a photo or two, jot down some notes, and create a story about what she has seen to share with children and their families.

A story is powerful and meaningful to families and can often communicate more than a number, a score, or a checklist of skills. Because the story is written to the children, it’s both easy for teachers to write and easy for families to understand. Teachers become observers and story writers while reflecting on children’s actions and words. The story is always a positive one about children’s strengths, good ideas, and dispositions for learning.” -THE NAEYC
