Wagner says we have a “culture of compliance” that aims at minimums, not dreams, for children and ourselves as teachers. Let’s look well beyond minimums and enrich our everyday experiences.

At Reggio Emilia the learning environment is described as the third teacher. The learning environment as the ‘third teacher’ has the power to shape the learning that happens in every ECE setting.

In this workshop you will be invited to consider the exciting work of shaking and waking the third teacher into responding to children’s agency, interests and strengths.

Let’s take a closer look at strengthening the valued learning in Te Whāriki through the provision of a rich and intentional learning environment.
