A Floorbook® is a large book that children and practitioners build together. When a child says something worth keeping, you write it down in their words. Their drawings go in, photographs of what they made, the questions they asked. You plan the next week from what is on the page.

That method sits underneath all four areas. Leaders use it to record what their team decides and evidence quality improvement. Nature Pedagogy uses it to hold what children notice outdoors. With infants and toddlers it captures learning before children have the words for it.

Learn it once and it works across your whole setting.
