NERD_0010 The Image of the Child

Welcome to the rerelease of That Early Childhood Nerd! This episode originally aired in September 2016...back then the podcast was called Cause an Effect. A lot has changed since then, including the host's name (from Heather Wenig to Heather Bernt-Santy) but we hope you will tune in! 

In this episode, Heather is joined by her youngest child, Josie, to discuss the idea of image of the child. Their starting quote comes from the book Working in the Reggio Way: A Beginner's Guide for American Teachers by Julianne P. Wurm:

"In Reggio, the child is viewed as strong, powerful, rich in potential, driven by the power of wanting to grow, and nurtured by adults who take this drive toward growth seriously."
