The term “hundred languages of children” refers to the many ways that children have of expressing themselves. Reggio teachers provide children with different avenues for thinking, revising, constructing, negotiating, developing and symbolically expressing their thoughts and feelings. The goal is for the adults to provide children with an allowing and inspiring learning environment where they can in the best possible way grow both as an individual but also as a global citizen, with a whole lot of respect for the world around us.
