Reflect on Observations 

45 Hours (4.5 CEUs) CDA Credential Renewal
Infant teachers study their observation records, documentation, and assessment information both individually and with colleagues and family members. Taking time to slow down, review, and think about each child’s behavior, temperament, learning interests, developmental profile, and needs helps teachers deepen their understanding and appreciation of each child and gives them ideas on how to continue to support that child’s learning and development.
