Introducing Reggio Emilia: The Environment as the Third Teacher

Loris Malaguzzi, the founder of the Reggio Emilia approach, describes how educators view the school “as a living organism, a place of shared relationships among the children, the teachers, and the parents and a feeling of belonging in a world that is alive, welcoming, and authentic”. The environment plays such a vital role in Reggio-inspired programs that it is oftentimes referred to as the “third teacher”.

The Whole Child Series - Introducing Reggio Emilia: Fostering Relationships

In the last PYP bulletin post, I introduced the Reggio Emilia approach by briefly highlighting its history and elaborating on one of its pillars; the image of the child.  In this post, since the emphasis on how the child is viewed as an individual has already been established, I would like to highlight how relationships are also a vital element in a Reggio-inspired program.

Bullying: What is it, and what can parents do?  

Being a primary school student is an exciting and truly magical time of life! But not all experiences are pleasant. One of the most difficult things that some children experience is bullying. Bullying is a very serious matter. When it is not dealt with, bullying may leave scars that our children carry with them far into their adult lives. Solving problems with bullying is never the responsibility of children. However, if we want to support our children with this, we need to know more about bullying.

U19 Match Report- Al Khor

ISL made the long trip up north to face Al Khor International School (AKIS) in a top of the table clash, wind and rain adding to the already spicy atmosphere.

The game was close early on with both sides creating chances. Fabian went close with 10 minutes on the clock before Niels skimmed the post. AKIS were dangerous on the break and could have opened the scoring but Affan in the ISL goal was quick off his line and suffocated the ball to keep the score level.

ISL were dominating in possession but were struggling to create any real clear-cut chances. The sides went in all square at the break, 0-0.

Mobile Phone Agreement for Middle School (G6 to G8)

The Primary school has spent the last year looking hard at our Home Learning Policy. A collective of teachers and leaders met on a regular basis to review this policy. Our first step was to reflect on the existing policy, and to raise concerns and questions. We then began researching home learning and tried to find out what up-to-date studies have shown, as well as, what other school were doing. In order to make meaningful and relevant changes we asked all stakeholders (students, parents, and teachers) to tell us what they think about our home learning: strengths and weaknesses. All this information was then analysed for commonalities and finally synthesized into a new Home Learning Policy in the Primary School. Below you will find details of the policy including our key objectives, beliefs, and vision for the future. The big idea here is that we would like to focus on LEARNING. Whether inside or outside the school we aim to maximize the learning opportunities for our students. As members of our school community, and as parents, you play an essential role in facilitating and promoting our school’s home learning policy.
