An ECE thumbs up!

I have had the pleasure and opportunity to have had Ms. Wurm work as my program's consultant this year. Reading "Working in the Reggio Way A Beginners Guide for Teachers" really brings all of the theory and practice that Julie Lives, Walks and Breathes! I found this book to be "People Friendly" and a hard one to put down! This book really empowers ECE teachers in creating our own "Reggio Way" here in the states. It's also a book which reminds us to place children first.

Excellent Resource-

I bought this book after it was recommended in a professional mentor group as a great resource for making authentic changes in individual settings. I found the book to be engaging and easy to read. The suggestions are very practical and respect the individuality of each school site that may use the book. I found the book to be completely process oriented and made me much more aware of the history and thinking in Reggio than other sources I had consulted before. I love that is it a first person account and not based on distant research but original research. I would recommend this book for anyone looking to begin the process of change in their school.

Great Resource

I recently came back from a Teachers conference and took a class on Reggio style. The teacher recommended this book, since I enjoyed the class I bought the book. THIS book is the only Reggio text that I have found that actually gives me ways to use this method of teaching in my classroom. I don't want page after page of how it worked somewhere else, I want to know how I can make Reggio-style WORK in MY classroom. This book gave me those tools.
