Description:
First conceived by Loris Malaguzzi and his closest associates, this exhibit is rooted in the thirty years of experience of the educational institutions operated by the Municipality of Reggio Emilia. The exhibit bears witness to the originality and the extraordinary nature of the years of research that have led the Reggio infant-toddler centres and preschools to become a primary point of reference for those who work in early childhood education worldwide.
This exhibit presents a narrative of what is possible when many hands and many minds-educators, parents and community- work together on ways to support children, with the conviction that Children's potential and rights are at the centre of sound education.
Presented in partnership with Seneca College, The Toronto District School Board, York University, and The Bishop Strachan School, the exhibit will offer educators the chance to learn first-hand about The Reggio approach and its impact on young learners. It will be open to the public as well.
The Hundred Languages of Children exhibit will be on display from September 18, 2006 to December 20, 2006 at the Toronto Dominion Centre 66 Wellington St., 39th floor, and again from January 12 to February 28, 2007 at the Columbus Centre, 901 Lawrence Ave. W.
