Early Childhood Education: Constructive Learning Environments



There is much about Reggio Emilia approach that distinguishes it from other efforts to define best practices in early childhood education. Much of the worldwide attention has been on the programs emphasis on children’s’ symbolic languages lovingly referred to as The Hundred Languages of Children.

  1. Nice video, but I have to disagree when teaching children s using only capital letters when recognizing their name. Capital are used only at the beginning of a name or sentence.

  2. Interesting video but sure they should begin with lower case (simple) letters as these form over 90% of reading materials. Capitasl can be used for first letter.  If you look on this page on youtube there are very few capital letters.Also the teacher during circle time is showing such a small name card. Initially these should be very large so the child can trace a finger over the letters. Hope,hese observation are useful.

  3. I enjoyed this video all of the teachers are so nice  to the children gentleness is important. I think it is probably better though to start children with lower case letters and capitals just for beginning sentences and with proper names. Also children from languages other than English backgrounds cannot usually read words written in capital letters  (or cursive).

  4. The Background music is SOOOO LOUD and Overpowering what she's saying. Horrible, its annoying n i had to pause, its stopping me from watching this annoying video, pls fix it !

  5. Throughout the video i noticed when the teachers were one on one scaffolding the children when it came to writing their name, or another name…they just to just tell them the answer. Rather than making the sounds of the letters in the word, and asking what the child might think the next letter might be. Instead of pointing out the sound each letter makes, to help the child understand the correlation between the letters and the sounds they make.

    Is there a reason the teacher just, told them the letters rather then working through it and having the child learn the sounds the letters make? I think with that will allow the child to visually see the letters, and understand what sound that letter makes. In the future, when the child wants to spell a word, or a name, they will work on the sounds of the word and figure it out rather than just ask how to spell it. What do you think?

  6. Poor examples, teaching children their name in all caps and worse using a large C followed by capitals printed smaller, Name Katie is correct on the bagLower case does not mean capital letters printed smaller
