We read slowly, never more than one chapter per month; sometimes we repeat a chapter, if we don’t feel finished with it. The dispositions we strengthen include close reading, careful listening and thoughtful conversation. Each meeting, we form a flexible learning group without a fixed destination, with the intention of cultivating a context for uncertainty, diversity and complexity.

Loris Malaguzzi was influenced by the writings of David Hawkins, an American philosopher interested in science and education. Among other concepts, Hawkins insisted that teachers need to be learners, as well as children. In turn, David Hawkins was deeply influenced by the work of his wife, Frances Hawkins, who was committed to documenting and studying children’s learning processes. Malaguzzi and Hawkins met in 1988. “Both believed in the importance of seeing children’s processes of learning through action and also of renewing oneself with an open mind. Upon such a common base each was able to learn from the other” (Gandini, 2008).

The Reggio-Inspired Network of Minnesota DOCUMENTATION LAB continues to offer educators an opportunity to study traces of children's actions - photographs, video clips, transcripts of conversations and children's own work - as a way to learn in collaboration with colleagues.

Documentation can be a powerful tool for educators who value thinking, inquiry, exploration, experiences and communication. We will:

• explore strategies for making thinking visible
• experience the process by collaborating in groups using provided artifacts to create a documentation panel
• discuss being brave by taking professional risks together

Director and the staff of Temple Israel Early Childhood Center

Children’s words, both spoken and written, are powerful agents. Join us for a conversation with our poet-in-residence and hear about the possibilities of incorporating poetry - children’s own poetry - into your educational plan. Julia will describe how young children can discover the joy of playing with words, and through the process, come to see themselves as poets.

Facilitated by:
Julia Klatt Singer
Poet-in-Residence and the staff of Grace Neighborhood Nursery School
