Notes from meeting on Wed. Nov. 16, 2016:

"Illumination"
Title, text (a few small paragraphs). Series of pictures that are referenced in the text.
Content of the text talks about the children, names, ages, what happened, what was the provocation, straight forward. Interpretation from the teacher - What is the inquiry? What did the children learn about? Why did you have that (evidence).

Analisa - Remain child center, not about what the teacher set up. Difficult to interpret
Shuruq - the teacher was involved for this specific activity (so she mentioned herself in the documentation)

"Sailing within reason"
Learning story for one specific child.
Shuruq - likes the back and forth language exchange
This would be good for seesaw (Liz- Use shadow puppet to tell the story and then upload to SeeSaw)

"Building a Doll's House"
Details
Amina- have students involved with the process- label photos? 

Not every moment is worth documenting - what is important to this specific child?
Why did we choose this to document? Are you studying it in class? Does this child do this all the time? Have they taken it further?

Try and make one learning story per a child. - Build from there..
