Product Description

This volume contributes to the burgeoning dialogue on the "Reggio Emilia" approach, and features the work of scholars, policy-makers, researchers, administrators and practising teachers who have created and directed the infant-toddler care systems in four cities in Italy. Joined by American educators and researchers (including Ron Lally, Rebecca New and Jeanne Goldhaber), their work builds upon and extends inclusionary and family-centred philosophies. It combines missions of care and education, and produces innovations in space and environments. The collection contains examples from dynamic, open systems of organization that support emotional and cognitive development of infants and toddlers, and respect the delicate relationship between parents and their young.

Great Book on Italian Approaches To ECE

Review Date: July 1, 2009

Reviewer: Vaish, New York, NY

This book was very insightful, especially if you are interested in learning more about the historical, cultural and pedagological aspects of ECE in Italy and how you can implement those ideas here in the U.S. or your own classroom. There's a little bit of information that every great ECE teacher can appreciate.
