The 4th workshop in our TCP Approach Series focuses on helping educators see, document, and communicate the learning that unfolds through open-ended art and play. In this session, we move beyond offering experiences and into reflection, documentation, and advocacy. You’ll learn how to identify meaningful lenses for observing children’s work, reflect on what matters most in your setting, and make learning visible to children, families, and colleagues. We share practical strategies for documenting process, centering children’s perspectives, and starting conversations that honor creativity, problem-solving, and social-emotional growth. You’ll also explore ways to advocate for play-based learning in increasingly rigid systems using real examples, clear language, and aligned values. This workshop supports educators in shifting the focus from products to process, while helping others understand that when children are deeply engaged in art and play, they are actively learning in powerful, developmentally appropriate ways. When we slow down, observe, and reflect, we see it clearly: art is play, and play is learning.
Running time: 55 minutes
PD certificate and 4 printables included
