At ABC KidZ we believe there are many opportunities for play and learning throughout our environment. The Reggio Emilia philosophy of education is committed to the creation of conditions for learning that will enhance and facilitate children's construction of their own powers of thinking through expressive, communicative and cognitive activities.
The Reggio Emilia approach is based on principles of emergent curriculum, project work, collaboration, and environment. Utilizing an activity based learning enriched environment, children are free to explore and learn through play and first hand experiences. Each theme based curriculum is tailored specifically toward the children’s interests and taught in a fun, nurturing, stimulating environment.
We believe that children learn best through active participation with their environment and that the teacher’s job is to provide a variety opportunities and experiences to promote growth in all areas. For more information, please read the excellent article found here:
