2. Extend your understanding

1. Locate and read the following article about pedagogical narration. As you read, reflect on the strengths you would bring to the process of pedagogical narration (skills, dispositions, understandings) as well as the challenges you might experience.
Atkinson, K. (2012), ‘Pedagogical Narration: What’s it all About? An Introduction to the Process of Using Pedagogical Narration in Practice’, The Early Childhood Educator. Available online:

2. Watch the following interview with Carla Rinaldi on documentation

What insights have you gained about the role of documentation in the Reggio Approach?

3. Locate and read the poem “The Hundred Languages of Children” by Loris Malaguzzi (translated by Lella Gandini) 

Think about your early school experiences or about classrooms you have visited more recently. What are the different ways that children represent their knowledges? What forms of representation, or expressive languages, are privileged and which are excluded? What additional expressive languages could you see being part of the hundred languages?
