Talking and Thinking Floorbooks - An Approach to Consultation, Observation, Planning and Assessment in Children's Learning (Paperback, 3rd Revised edition)

The term Talking and Thinking Floorbook (TM) reflects their purpose which is to encourage thinking skills through talking and listening together in a group, so that children are consulted and can then influence the opportunities taking place.They create a child centred approach, which records the evidence of the process of play and the learning that comes from it.Consultation with children is important because;* it creates a closer match between the child and the curriculum it is experiencing.* it builds self esteem and positive attitudes when the learner is involved in the decision making.* it increases intrinsic motivation, that stays with a child throughout life.* children have a right to be treated with respect. As individuals, we can show respect by valuing their thoughts and opinions.The initial thoughts, evidence of the process of play and a summary of ideas are collated in a Talking and Thinking Floorbook(TM), that can reflect the progression over the learning journey.
