“The idea of a Piazza in schools reflects our idea that education is public. The Piazza is a public place, where dialogue can take place. Every gesture, every act we do in the Piazza is amplified because everybody can see us.” Lucia Colla #reggiochildren

I’m watching one of the presenting teachers here in Reggio Emilia avidly taking notes as she listens to another’s presentation. This speaks volumes about their culture of learning with and from one another. #reggiochildren

“The learning environment is designed to offer diversified proposals and ways in which children can work in small groups on their own.” Silvia Crociani #reggiochildren
