[quote=Anonymous]I taught at a school on the west coast which practiced a Reggio Emilia philosophy and also visited the city in Italy as a work related study. A school which truly understands this methodologie will have a deep understanding of the innate curiously of children and how to honor that. They also follow the practice of the environment as the third teacher which translates to a true devotion to a thoughtfully and beautifully put together environment that allows children to truly explore with accessible materials that are more open ended. So yes it is about playing but teachers act more like guides observing children playing and building a curriculum around their interests and discoveries rather than some random theme. For me what sets apart a true Reggio program is a beautiful environment and the atelier... you can look that up to learn more.[/quote]
