Professional development virtually at my fingertips! I love that I can visit the Videatives site and scroll through a variety of clips and Thinkprints to find the product that best suits my immediate needs. If my focus is on my blocks area, there are a variety of clips to choose from! Videatives have encouraged me to be more attentive to ordinary classroom moments and to use images and conversations observed from these play experiences to demonstrate the educational value of play to families through meaningful conversations and through documentation outside my door.
