'We make thinking rather than doing our priority' (Pelo & Carter, 2018)

This webinar invites educators to reimagine documentation as an intentional, achievable practice woven into everyday teaching, not an 'add-on'. When planned and prioritised, documentation becomes a way of seeing, thinking, and acting together, deepening our understanding of children, families, and ourselves as co-learners.

Together, we will explore how documentation:

• Strengthens relationships by co-theorising with colleagues, children, and families.
• Attends to the emotional and relational undercurrents that shape learning moments.
• Evolves dynamically, keeping projects and ideas responsive to children’s discoveries.

Through children’s words, gestures, drawings, and stories, documentation becomes a living record of inquiry, a tool for reflection, collaboration, and transformative practice.

Educators will leave with practical strategies to plan and prioritise documentation, making it sustainable, purposeful, and embedded at the heart of their teaching.
