Learn to co-construct social identities in a Reggio Emilia, Remida-inspired way. Identifying with repurposed/reuse materials as a community practice develops a sustainable attitude and disposition toward school transformation.

Explore a variety of visual narrative presentations of documentation of children's learning in Reggio-inspired settings. Develop strategies to make children's learning visible. Apply observation and assessment skills to set up communication systems for sharing about children's learning.

Setting intentions affects everyone involved in a classroom and school community. This session will demonstrate the power of community building through intentional practices.
