dc.description.abstractMany tools are used in child assessment during early childhood to support the development of children and plan the educational process. Originating in New Zealand, learning stories is a technique of observation that enables the assessment of children during early childhood. A learning story is the documentation by a teacher (or parent) of what a child (or group of children) is observed doing in an early childhood program. The adult must know the child well to properly assess a child's learning. Learning stories are narratives constructed from structured observations designed to provide a collective perspective on a child's learning. Observations obtained using this method are reinterpreted as stories, then analyzed and used as a basis for planning. Teachers collect 'critical events' or moments that seem important to a child. By analyzing a few of them through a narrative, they try to reveal the child's learning path and the pattern of their learning tendencies in the form of stories. The learning stories method, used in many countries across the world in early childhood, is not used in early childhood education in Turkey. In this context, this study was carried out to introduce the method to educators, families and researchers working in the field of early childhood, and to present the important points that should be considered during practice in the preschool period. This study was planned as a case study, which is a qualitative research method. The study group consisted of a teacher working in the preschool period (48-60 months) and a child in the classroom. The study included observations of the preschool teacher and examples of the learning stories created using these observations, followed by the analysis of the interview conducted with the teacher. It can be argued that the learning stories method is an alternative assessment method that can be used to evaluate the curriculum in early childhood education in Turkey, as is the case in many countries.en_US
