Why I Believe in Homeschooling by Tina Smith
The Reggio Emilia Approach to Early Childhood Education
Our 16-yo dd attended a Reggio-Emilia preschool and blossomed wonderfully. When we started homeschooling, RE was one of our inspirations. I still check every now and then to see if there are any RE homeschoolers out there. While our homeschool isn’t RE I’ve tried to keep some of the elements – documentation, project-learning, beautiful materials, lots of art and color and gentle hands-on learning — that we loved at our dd’s preschool. We all loved RE so much that if I had found an affordable RE school for her to attend after WUNS (the few that were available at the time cost more than our mortgage) we probably would never have started homeschooling, and THAT would be a shame indeed.
