The Reggio Community


The Reggio community consists of the children, the teacher, and the parents. The relationships of the people in the community are crucial in order for the Reggio Approach to work successfully. When everyone talks they find new ways of educating the children in the best possible way. They work together to build a culture that respects their adolescence as being a time they can explore, create, and be happy. The Riggio Approach says that it is the parents right to be actively involved with the decisions and development of their children’s education.

  1. I really like how they say it's a parent's right to be involved with their child's education. I know with my kids, I'm going to be as involved as I can be. My children's education is important to me, as it is with most other parents, and they should be given the opportunity to be involved if they wish.

    1. I also agree that I like the way parents were involved. I work in elementary education and I can pick out students that get help at home. It is important for parents to be involved in their children's education because so that children can have the support they need.

  2. This is so interesting to me. Because the project I did was Waldorf, and they prefer the parents not to be involved. I love seeing the different opinions. But, I personally love that the Reggio Emilia Approach likes the parents there. I also believe it is the "parents right" to be involved with their child's education.
