| Overview: | |||||||||
| A common question among educators who teach through a Reggio Emilia approach to education is, “What are the connections between literacy and the arts?” This complex question involves considering the arts beyond painting and sculpture to include architecture, engineering, and culinary experiences, to name a few. Our children may have jobs in the future that do not exist today. We need to teach our children how to problem-solve through critical and creative thinking to prepare them for a future that we cannot even imagine. This webinar series will explore how children work to enhance their knowledge through motivation and engagement. The educators act as guides to listen, prompt, guide, and co-research alongside children. These sessions invite you to try new practices, explore other ways of interacting with children, and reflect deeply on your philosophy. |
