The Clay Bundle – Clay Manual & Encounter with Clay Webinar

Bundle: Clay Manual + Encounters with Clay Webinar

Explore the language of clay – in print and in conversation.

This bundle pairs the Clay Manual with the Encounters with Clay webinar, offering both a deep technical and pedagogical resource and a live, dialogic exploration of the same material.

Clay Manual
A manual dedicated to the “language” of clay in Reggio Emilia’s municipal infant-toddler centres and preschools, offering suggestions and experiences for education, with technical information “warmed up” by the way children make use of this material. Through this dialogue, the many expressive potentials of clay emerge – alongside the physical challenges the material presents, and the strategies children adopt to solve problems. The manual also traces the discreet, fundamental role of the adult who designs contexts capable of prefiguring new and different situations. It speaks with a multiplicity of voices: the voice of clay itself, of technical competency, of children and teachers, and of the older children and adults frequenting the ateliers at the Loris Malaguzzi International Centre.

Encounters with Clay Webinar
This webinar focuses on clay’s potentialities, interweaving the practical and the possible, and exploring what this enticing material has to evoke in children’s and adults’ learning. Creative Arts Specialist Cathy Phillips and Kirsty Liljegren engage in creative dialogue, bringing theory and practice together through contemporary ideas and stories from practice where clay has been a focus of research.

Access to this bundle is available for 1 month from the date of purchase – our admin team will be in touch with your webinar access link. Normal RRP is $165.
