[quote=Anonymous]At the Reggio inspired School my DC went to 1st grade was the beginning of school (kindergarten was considered early childhood and lumped in with the preschool). There was very little academics until 1st grade.

Honestly, it worked because these kids were selected for the school. It was a selective school. They took as 3yos. There were smart. And it was an expensive school. Parents were UMC and educated.

It did not work as well for the children who were later diagnosed as having dyslexia. But they would have struggled in any environment, and they eventually hit the help they needed.

It is a great school. It is the school I wanted to go to as a child. The teachers work harder than most. (I’m a teacher at public school and would not even try to get a job there. They are always reflecting, reevaluating, and creating lesson plans, because it is child led but teacher guided. I don’t have to do that and I couldn’t if I wanted to.)

They do strangely go to Reggio Emilia in Italy. I have no idea why. They also go to other places around the country to visit the best schools. It’s a little culty. Yes. [/quote]
