Curriculum planning
|
The curriculum is an emergent one, following the interests of the children, one of the key aspects of the Reggio Emilia approach. The environment acts as the third teacher and care and attention is given to ensure the learning environment is engaging for children, to stimulate their curiosity and creativity. Teachers learn alongside children and support their learning and community collaboration is encouraged. Children are encouraged to express themselves in many different ways. Guidance is provided by the Hong Kong Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide, 2017 and the Early Learning Framework from Ontario in Canada, to inform the learning goals and to help plan developmentally appropriate learning engagements.
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
Reggio Emilia, play based, child centred learning - the child is seen as a capable and competent learner, full of curiosity about the world around them. Teachers work alongside the children to facilitate their inquiry and support their development in the different developmental areas. A strong emphasis on encouraging children to be independent, curious, creative and self-confident. The environment is the third teacher and supports the children's learning in an authentic way and meaningful way.
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
Documentation, newsletters, regular communication, both formal and informal between the school and home. Teachers use an application called 'Storypark' to make the learning visible and provide regular class updates, and to share individual learning stories.
