This critically acclaimed, lavishly illustrated book will help educators create the highest quality learning opportunties for a new generation of children. The Second Edition features substantial and important changes, including the addition of new chapters by pioneers of the work that happens in the atelier who draw on several decades of experience. The atelier of studio is a key element of the renowned preschools and infant-toddler centres of Reggio Emeilia, Italy. This beautiful, full-colour resource explores how the experiences of children interacting with rich materials in the atelier affect an entire school's approach to the construction and expression of thought and learning. The authors provide examples of projects and address practical aspects of the atelier, including organizing the environment and using materials. No other book presents a more thorough examination of the philosophy, practice, and essential influence of the Reggio-inspired studio.

I read this over the semester to help me think about how I was stimulating children's creativity through art and expression, and I thought this gave me a big hand in NOT being so hard on myself. I had more limited resources but made the best out of what I had. I ended up using a lot of recycled and natural materials in the classroom! The children had plenty of time to really dig into their works, and they loved it when they could take it home. A++
