PARENTS PARTICIPATION
O U R P A R E N T Ss
"Relationships are at the very heart of the Reggio Emilia philosophy.
That philosophy is reflected in an environment that encircles the child with three “teachers,” or protagonists.
The first teacher—the parent—takes on the role of active partner and guide in the education of the child.
The second is the classroom teacher. Often working in pairs, the classroom teacher assumes the role of researcher and intentionally engages children in meaningful work and conversation.
The third teacher is the environment—a setting designed to be not only functional but also beautiful and reflective of the child’s learning.
It is the child’s relationship with parent, teacher, and environment that ignites learning."
