Join Leanne Mits, representing Pope Road Kindergarten, to encounter stories of daily practice. Participants are invited to consider one learning community’s engagement and journey, over many years, with the principles of the Reggio Emilia Approach ©.
Leanne will share examples of research projects and discuss drawing on the documentation of children’s learning to inform curriculum design and learning projects, for research, to deepen educator’s understanding of children’s learning processes, and for the professional learning of educators.
Spanning a 40 year career in teaching, Leanne will share examples of change, challenge, growth and transformation of thinking and practice, since encountering the educational project of Reggio Emilia close to 30 years ago. Leanne will share what continues to bring inspiration and influence to her thinking and practice, from ongoing learning from the ever-evolving educational project of Reggio Emilia.
