Reggio Emilia approach

children should have the same equipment and resources as us but in child sized. We see this in settings every day for example child sized tables and chairs. Montessori’s approach is well respected, with lots of setting in the UK following this approach, however there are theories that disagree with her and have a different style of approach too. Montessori’s theory was/is similar to other international approaches too. One of the theorists that is similar is forest schools. Both these approaches…

draw the child into reading the books, these warm and bright colors are interpreted as happy, stimulating and inviting colors. The students will have lots of storage and work space areas. This will be a vital part in creating the inspired Reggio Emilia Approach and Montessori learning…

curriculum. Children often make environments amongst the classroom what they desire that area to be for. Even though our program and curriculum state that an area is desired for a particular activity, children will make use of what they can find. A Reggio Emilia approach advocates that teachers pay close attention to the myriad of ways that space can be made to “speak” and invite interaction (Cadwell, 2003; Fraser, 2006), such as positioning small mirrors around the classroom or placing easels…

It is important that play is based on the child’s interests as they will be carrying on playing if they are interested in it. I have learnt this since researching about Reggio Emilia, Reggio believed that children will remain on task if they are interested and motivated in it. It is also important that practitioners work closely with the child’s parents as they are the child’s first educators. This could be done by having meetings with the parents or speaking to them at the end of the day, this…

may not be all platonic. Cassio, in particular, is the target of these allegations of promiscuity, being friendly with both Desdemona and Othello, and often asking Desdemona for favours once he falls out of her husband’s grace. This comes about when Emilia brings the handkerchief to her husband after it was dropped by Desdemona, and he proceeds to plant it on Cassio, telling Othello that it must mean that Cassio and Desdemona are romantically involved. From this point on, Iago proceeds to use…

difficult to find strong female role models such as the ones in Shakespeare’s plays. In Othello, by William Shakespeare, Emilia and Desdemona are both very strong female characters. Desdemona is strong because of her response to being called demeaning words by her husband, her ability to overlook race and class and her unwillingness to blame and be angry at Othello. While Emilia is strong for other reasons. However, Desdemona…

appear as if Desdemona is being unfaithful, when she is being everything but. One example of when Othello is completely blind of reality is when Iago is talking to Cassio about Emilia. Othello thinks that Cassio is describing his sexual interaction with Desdemona when he is actually talking about his sexual interaction with Emilia. To add onto his blindness to reality,…

Deception “O Lord, deliver me from the man of excellent intention and impure heart: for the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked,” stated T.S. Eliot a renowned American poet and playwright. This quote is the basis for several inferences, the main one being that people are deceptive and often have malicious intentions. This inference is quite realistic too as illustrated through two texts: The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger and Othello by William Shakespeare. A…

The word tragedy is defined as an event causing great destruction or distress. In the play Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare emphasizes this idea of tragedy. The story is revolved around this family feud which led many of these tragedies. A lot of character’s are impacted off this concept of two families having complete hatred for one another. In William Shakespeare's story Romeo and Juliet, the characters of Tybalt, Lord Capulet and Friar Lawrence contribute to the tragedy of the play because of…

“You cannot believe a liar even when he tells the truth”(Aesop’s Fables) is a powerful quote since liar’s tend to be able to tell the truth yet still be able to twist it enough to their advantage. In the play Othello, we encounter a fellow named Iago who spins a web of lies that hurts everyone in the process. While able to manipulate multiple people at a time, Iago will end up taking what makes these three characters so noble into their downfall is inevitable. Husband turned against wife,…
