Aimed at Educators and Pedagogical Leaders, A Suitcase Full of Stories bridges the 'theory to practice' gap around pedagogical documentation in early education. The book reveals a fresh and creative insight into documentation through stories as a powerful mechanism for listening-in, analysing, progressing and revisiting children's well-being and learning. Warmly and practically written, a wealth of documentation examples involving babies, toddlers and young children are threaded throughout the book in a highly visual and accessible format.Shining a much-needed spotlight on educating the heart before educating the mind, this book:

Foregrounds the interdependence of emotional learning and cognitive learning. Provides Educators with clear guidance and practical examples to implement an ongoing cycle of pedagogical documentation including observations, analysing learning, and planning emergent curriculum. Simplifies the Learning Story Approach providing numerous practical examples of different types of learning stories for babies, toddlers and young children. Unpacks child voice and brings child participation to the centre of documentation practice. Showcases the multi-modal functionality of Ped-tech (Pedagogical Technology) using the digital MOSAIC Educator Pedagogical Documentation System. Highlights the role of the proficient educator and the characteristics and supports required for professional documentation standards.

A Suitcase Full of Stories is an essential resource for Educators and Pedagogical Leaders aiming to maximise the impact of meaningful documentation for the benefit of young children.
