Welcome to the Reggio-Inspired Network of Minnesota, a broad gathering of educators and citizens from Minnesota and nearby regions, who work in a variety of schools and civic organizations around issues of education and democracy. Inspired by the innovative preschools and infant-toddler centers in Reggio Emilia, Italy, Network participants look closely at the “Reggio approach” as well as examine and discuss our local experiences.  Here you will find information, inspiration and resources.

NOVEMBER GATHERING

ON BLOCK PLAY


Block Play and The Role Of Symbolic Representation In Thinking and Learning

It's no secret that blocks prove to be one of the most versatile and important materials for young children. In this session, we will take a deeper look at the symbolic representation skills supported through block play as well as how blocks support development in all domains. We will also explore how children use these materials to show us what they know as they make sense of the world around them.

Presenters: Ross Thompson & Barb Murphy

Saturday, November 9 at 9 am
