Do Yourself a Favor: Go see what children can do when given the freedom to do it.
Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi的点评
点评:I have only cried twice this summer: the first time, was when I saw Van Gogh's paintings at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris. The second time was today, when I saw the artwork of Reggio Emilia's children at the Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi.
EVERYONE should visit this place, not just elementary teachers. To see how the educators in Reggio Emilia are able to step back and let children develop their own ideas and thoughts, and then turn those ideas into artwork is amazing. The educators become recorders of the children's activities and conversations, but they don't try to control them.
The pre-schools in Reggio Emilia were set up, after World War II, so that the center of each school was an atelier (artist studio) in the center with classrooms around it, so that the atelier was the center and heart of the school. Students from each classroom can spend hours each day in the atelier, working on projects, or even a whole day.
Do yourself a favor. Go spend 2-3 hours at the Centro to see what children can do when given the freedom to do it. Bonus: the snack bar must be run as a non-profit. Coffee was $1.20, croissant was the same price. About half of what you would pay anywhere else.
翻译:这个夏天我只哭过两次:第一次是在巴黎奥赛博物馆看梵高的画。第二次是今天,当时我在 Centro Internazionale Loris Malaguzzi 看到了雷焦艾米利亚孩子们的作品。
每个人都应该参观这个地方,而不仅仅是小学教师。看到雷焦艾米利亚的教育工作者如何能够退后一步,让孩子们发展自己的想法和想法,然后将这些想法变成艺术品,真是太神奇了。教育工作者成为孩子们的活动和谈话的记录者,但他们并不试图控制他们。
雷焦艾米利亚的学前班是在二战后建立的,所以每所学校的中心是中心的工作室(艺术家工作室),周围是教室,所以工作室是学校的中心和心脏.每个班级的学生每天都可以在工作室里花几个小时做项目,甚至一整天。
帮自己一个忙。去 Centro 花 2-3 个小时,看看孩子们在获得自由的情况下可以做什么。奖励:小吃店必须以非营利方式经营。咖啡是 1.20 美元,羊角面包是同样的价格。大约是您在其他任何地方支付的费用的一半。
