Seeing Children, Seeing Ourselves: A Reggio Inspired Practice Book Club
About this Network:
Join a vibrant community of fellow educators from Jewish early childhood centers, dedicated to deepening their practice through the lens of the Reggio Emilia inspired philosophy. This book club is a space for reflection, dialogue, and inspiration.
Together, we will read excerpts from the book "Working in the Reggio Way: A Beginner's Guide for American Teachers" as we explore key texts that challenge and expand our thinking about children, learning, and the role of the educator.
Through rich discussions and shared experiences, participants will bring ideas to life in their own classrooms, co-constructing knowledge within a supportive community of practice.
Whether you're new to Reggio or continuing your journey, this book club offers a space to grow, connect, and transform your work with young children.
