Thornton and Brunton, consultants and trainers for local authorities, children's centers, nurseries, and schools in the UK, explain how to use the Reggio Emilia approach to work with young children in the UK and its connections to the Early Years Foundation Stage framework. This edition has been updated to reflect the revised framework, and each chapter hones in on one aspect of the approach--relationships, creativity, the environment, time management, learning and teaching, and reflective practice--and what happens, connections to the Early Years framework, how to draw inspiration from the approach, and how ideas look in practice. Other chapters provide background on the approach, including its history, development, and how infant-toddler centers and preschools are organized.
