Reggio Inspired Studio Spaces at the IMACara Lovati
A powerpoint for a presentation at the 2014 National Art Education Association Conference (NAEA) in San Diego. Describes work done in the studio classrooms at the Indianapolis Museum of Art
This document discusses creativity as a quality of thought from the perspective of Carla Rinaldi, President of Reggio Children and Reggio Children – Centre Loris Malaguzzi Foundation. It references stories told by children, including "Laura and the watch", poems about the sea and weather, and questions around death and rebirth. The document also mentions children's work making curtains for a theater and how the city of Reggio Emilia belongs to its children.
1. The study examined the impact of Reggio Emilia transition practices on children moving from preschool to elementary school across multiple metrics like academic achievement, school liking, cooperativeness, and problem behaviors.
2. Results found higher implementation of Reggio Emilia practices were associated with better adjustment, while lower implementation correlated with increased problem behaviors.
3. The degree to which schools facilitated transitions influenced student outcomes, emphasizing the importance of systematic transition procedures.
The document describes a classroom activity called "Throwing Your Money Away" where students work in groups to design paper airplanes that can fly 3 meters while carrying coins. It involves students documenting their observations of group learning processes. The key steps are: 1) Students design airplanes in groups while others document; 2) Documenters share observations with groups who reflect on learning; 3) Groups report what they learned about aerodynamics and learning processes to the whole class. The document then discusses features of documentation including selectively sharing artifacts to provoke new understandings and shape future learning. It emphasizes involving students in the documentation process so they can identify important learning moments.

1. A metodologia de Reggio Emilia orienta o desenvolvimento integral das crianças, vendo-as como competentes e curiosas.
2. A metodologia valoriza a participação das famílias e comunidade, e vê as crianças não de forma isolada, mas em conjunto com outros.
3. O protagonismo infantil, elemento central da abordagem, vê as crianças como participantes ativas no processo de aprendizagem.
This document discusses the importance of early childhood development and education. It argues that early childhood should be viewed as a distinct and important developmental phase, rather than solely a preparation for school. It also stresses that children should be allowed the freedom to learn and develop at their own pace, through play and exploration, without adult expectations or pressures. The document advocates for recognizing each child's individuality and uniqueness, and ensuring children feel safe to take risks and see failures as learning opportunities, not judgments of their worth.
This document summarizes the principles of the Reggio Emilia educational philosophy. It outlines six key principles: (1) having an image of the child as strong, curious, and driven to learn; (2) viewing the environment as a third teacher to communicate values through space, aesthetics, and materials; (3) allowing for large blocks of flexible time for learning; (4) using long-term, open-ended projects emerging from children's interests as the curriculum; (5) recognizing the importance of family and community involvement; and (6) employing close observation and documentation of children's learning. The philosophy emphasizes respecting children's innate potential and right to interact and communicate.
The Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education originated in Italy and is characterized by several key aspects. It views the child as competent and encourages learning through in-depth projects based on their interests. Teachers act as facilitators rather than instructors, and there is strong collaboration between teachers, parents, and children. The Italian system splits responsibility between the Ministry of Education for ages 3-6 and municipalities for infants/toddlers, with most 3-6 year olds attending Scuola Materna preschools that are typically free. The philosophy is influenced by constructivism and sees the environment as a third teacher.
A Visit to Reggio Emilia's Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzilascuola
This document provides notes from a visit to the Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi (CILM) in Reggio Emilia, Italy. It describes several classrooms and spaces at the CILM and Scuola dell'Infanzia (pre-k through 5th grade school). Key points include: the CILM is housed in an old cheese factory and has a resource center; the Piazza is used for independent work; the 2s and 3s classroom explores real world and fantasy; the 4s have a multimedia lab; the 5s use technology to learn science; the mensa has different seating options; the kitchen is central; 4th grade studied rivers;
The Atelier is a place for children to experiment with various mediums and materials to express their creativity. All activities are designed to stimulate children's creativity and enrich their sensory experiences. A variety of papers, graphics, digital media, paints, watercolors, clay, and natural materials are provided to support exploring, experimenting, and creating knowledge in fun ways.
O documento lista repetidamente os nomes de escolas de Reggio Emilia - Escola Pablo Neruda, Escola Villetta, Escola Diana, Escola Iotti - e menciona "Escoles Reggio Emilia 2007", sugerindo que ele fornece detalhes sobre essas escolas.
This document discusses the importance of observation and documentation in early childhood education. It emphasizes moving away from traditional methods of observing children in isolation and comparing them to developmental norms, and instead focusing on observing children within relationships and social contexts to understand their interests and abilities. This allows educators to design child-initiated programs that respect each child's unique skills and knowledge and view children in a positive light. The document also stresses the importance of viewing one's role as supporting children's active learning and development rather than focusing on perceived deficits.
The document outlines Coleham Primary School's foundation stage policy. It discusses admissions procedures, the induction process for new students, staffing, the early years curriculum, assessment, transition to year 1, parental involvement, special educational needs support, English as an additional language support, and liaison with local pre-school providers. The goal is to provide high-quality early education and ensure a smooth transition to primary school.
This document discusses inquiry learning and the characteristics of an inquiring school. It describes inquiry learning as an active approach where students investigate meaningful questions to develop skills and deep understanding. An inquiring school is characterized by students actively involved in driving their own learning through rich questions. Teachers see themselves as learners and build students' capabilities. Planning is collaborative and ongoing to meet students' evolving needs and interests. The curriculum is integrated through inquiry to help students see connections across learning areas.
1. The document outlines the inquiry cycle which involves building from prior knowledge, questioning, observing, exploring, gaining new perspectives, sharing learning, and taking new action.
2. It also discusses different forms of inquiry including teacher-directed structured learning, guided inquiry with more student initiative, and open inquiry with high student control and low teacher control.
3. Key aspects of the inquiry cycle are reflection, questioning, researching, and drawing conclusions to share new learning.

"Interaction between brands and children by means of the game and videogames. LEGO Group case study"
Our Journey into Pedagogical Documentation is the story of a team of educators in the Surrey School District who engaged in an professional inquiry into Reggio inspired teaching and learning.
Slides presentate all'incontro Didamatica 2016 a Udine. Si parla dei vantaggi didattici di una introduzione precoce dei principi Agili nella didattica informatica quotidiana (un mio pallino).
Offering outstanding Reggio Emilia-Inspired Infant, Toddler, Two's, and Preschool programs, as well as Kindergarten, After School and Summer Camp programs for school-age children in Cincinnati, Ohio.
This presentation highlights the creation of the hashtag #sd36learn that has grown into a vibrant, creative online learning environment for Surrey School District educators
This is a presentation created for my COETAIL class. The Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education is the model of instruction that I chose for the assignment.
The Blue School in New York City currently educates 250 children from pre-primary to 5th grade using the Montessori method, and plans to expand to 6th grade next year and 8th grade by 2017. Montessori education believes that children have a natural desire to learn when presented with an encouraging environment, and values independent learning as well as holistic development. One key feature is facilitating independent study, as Montessori educators believe children can concentrate intensely when pursuing self-directed interests at their own pace.
The document discusses taking running records to assess a child's reading level. It explains that a running record involves recording both accurate and inaccurate words read by the child, and then analyzing error patterns to determine the child's reading abilities and areas for growth. The document provides guidance on administering and analyzing running records, including calculating accuracy rates, identifying cueing systems used, and determining appropriate reading levels.
