For Educators
Think with us!
We recognize that each educator’s needs and school settings are unique. We believe the Reggio Approach to early childhood education is a powerful tool to help children, teachers, and parents grow, learn and develop.
We want to get that tool into the hands of educators. Inquire about our practicum teaching positions, resources, and professional development opportunities.
Specialty Workshop- Lines of Learning: Mapping Classroom Inquiry
DATE: FEBRUARY 25, 2O26 @ 9AM-12PM
LOCATION: LAB SCHOOL CAMPUS
COST: $125/person
This long-term research project examines the rich interplay between classroom inquiry and content that emerges from small-group learning. Using lines as a metaphor—for connection, relationships, and the construction of knowledge—we explore how learning unfolds through interaction, observation and reflection.
In this presentation, we will highlight the cycle of inquiry, the power of careful observation and the interpretive processes that shape understanding. Participants will see how these practices inform teacher decision-making and guide instructional choices that sustain and deepen both teaching and learning outcomes. Attendees will leave with insights into how small moments of curiosity and collaboration can ripple into meaningful learning experiences, creating classrooms where connections—between ideas, children, and teachers—are at the heart of education.
