More than a Mark: the joy and complexity of children’s graphic languages
REAIE is delighted to announce Maddalena Tedeschi, Pedagogista and Sara De Poi, Atelierista, colleagues who work directly with the Municipal schools in Reggio Emilia, as the 2024 Symposium speakers.
Much work has been undertaken in Reggio Emilia around building our understandings of the language of drawing as a communicative form of expression for young children.
Elena Corte, Atelierista, Municipal Infant Toddler Centres and Preschools Reggio Emilia, proposed Drawing is one of the many languages that children carry with them…a natural language that continuously mixes with all the other languages.
The 2024 Symposium dialogue sessions will support deepened understandings of the significance of the language of drawing, making reference to the Exhibition titled The Pleasures of Drawing – the visual thinking of children.
