Reggio is a city in the northeast of Italy. Since the 1960s, Lolis? LorisMalaguzzi, together with local preschool teachers, established and developed preschool education in this area. After decades of efforts, Italy has formed a set of "unique and innovative ideas and curriculum ideas, school organization methods and environmental design principles" after the world-famous Montessori. People call this complex "Reggio? Amelia's educational orientation. "
Origio's education system takes Piaget's theory as the main theoretical basis of the education system, and thinks that children should create a rich environment in early childhood education, so that children can fully interact with the environment through their own activities. In Reggio Kindergarten, more attention is paid to the process of environmental creation and participation. When creating the environment, we should consider four elements: people, space, time and materials. Reggio has many highly recognizable environmental protection features and rich materials.
What are the characteristics of Reggio's materials? First, I like natural things very much, and second, Reggio's unique game piecework.
Let's talk about natural things first, and then take parts as an example to see Reggio's incredible material wealth!
What are loose parts?
Literal translation of parts is parts, and playing parts is a game of parts.
Refers to those simple and open substances, which are often easily found around or in nature, such as glass balls, small stones, bottle caps, shells, ribbons, branches and leaves, nuts, toilet paper tubes and screws. Especially the use of a large number of natural objects.
Piece play can be said to be a natural game when manipulating materials. In a narrow sense, Loose-parts is one of the most popular games in Reggio Park. However, in a broad sense, Pieces represents Reggio's rich materials.
Under the Reggio system, scattered items are widely used, which makes children's games more rich and complicated. These objects have infinite possibilities, which can stimulate children's experimental spirit and bring their creativity into play. In the process of creation, children can learn many advanced concepts, such as style, balance and the relationship between things.
So how do you play Lose-parts?
The game of scattered items is almost omnipotent. You can use them to build, or play outdoor games, assemble, paint, perform scenes, and even learn math, and so on.
The more kinds and quantities of open materials, the more fun children have, the more they can stimulate their problem-solving potential, and their ability of reflection, planning and assembly, and the greater the possibility of creation.
Can be used to build
Can be used for assembly
Can be used for painting and artistic creation.
Can be used to play situational games.
Can be used to play outdoor games.
Can be used to learn math and logic.
After reading these materials and gameplay, do you feel that your brain is wide open?
Rich material is a solid foundation for multi-sensory experience, openness and inspiration. A large number of natural objects in the materials let children contact and fall in love with nature invisibly; Piece games provide children with a good opportunity to fall in love with exploration, continuous discovery and sensory experience.
On the other hand, how many natural objects have we provided to early education institutions, kindergartens and children at home? Have you ever found that children are naturally fond of natural materials? They can't put down a leaf or a pine cone. They like to step on the sand pit and play with mud ... but at this time, many parents immediately stopped their children "that can't be played (picked up), it's so dirty!"
Finally, I end with Reggie's principle, hoping to give you some inspiration:
