Relationship Building
At the beginning of September, we welcomed a brand new group of children into the Infant Program! As the new children are becoming more familiar with their new surroundings, new educators, and new children, it is our goal to build a positive foundation with the children during this time. As the weeks have gone on, we have been learning more and more about the children each and every day! In the Reggio Emilia philosophy, relationships are integral, special, and valued. Additionally, in the Reggio Emilia philosophy, the children have three teachers in their life; the parents, the educators, and the environment. It is important as educators that we create positive relationships with all children and families, as well as creating a positive learning environment to encourage expression, engagement, and belonging within the classroom.
