ELP's Kindness Blog: Being a Friend & What if kindness is the only rule?

ELP's Kindness Blog: Being a Friend & What if kindness is the only rule?

We realised how important 'kindness' was in the way our whole learning and teaching culture played out. As teachers we wanted to model this and it has been so fabulous to see this happening. As with research journeys we are so often surprised and we were not expecting to see the way leadership was enhanced. We think children have a real sense of what is just and fair and when they are immersed in a culture of fairness, in its many shapes and forms, they will promote this way of being to each other. The learning stories we have written show this time and again. Here is the learning story in an easy to read format! What if kindness is the only rule?

Learning Stories: One way to assess and report—professionals and children working together

And how can they be of use to us in our work of helping children to learn and grow? When I first worked in child care in Sydney back in the 1980s and was studying what was then called the Associate Diploma of Child Care, I was told that observations were scientific records, and to be a successful observer I needed to maintain scientific protocols. Observations were to be objective, concerned only with the facts or features of what I was seeing, not my thoughts or feelings, nor my perceptions of the child’s thoughts or feelings. When I learnt about a socio-constructivist approach which challenges the notion of predictable, universally applicable developmental stages, it had a strong impact on how, what and when I observed and planned.
