| 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. |
