Marion Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 I've had a great day. my nursery nurse took ill last night so the TA from Y1 came with me and she hasn't stopped enthusing for the 2hour drive home. Jan Dubiel is now my hero! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest budgie1 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Glad you enjoyed it! I was really pleased to hear him back up many things that I have been saying to my head eg WALT / WILF have no place in a child centred curriculum. I also thought that the three mountain story was inspiring. I wish I could get hold of a copy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 I've emailed him asking for the source will let you know if I get a reply. I'd like to share it with the other staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Glad you had a good time, I'm enthused too after Tuesday's visit.. loved the learning journey books and hope to start something like that. Loved Jan Dubiel too and would love that poetic child's quote - hope Jan gets a significant say in birth to 5 assmt. Liked the high profile for PSE and communicating. What a treat.

Can you remember any of the poetic child's quote to Google it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 (edited) Hi surfer liked your link but the one Jan Dubiel shared came from Reggio care of loris malaguzzi Edited June 26, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wolfie Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 The high profile for PSE and communicating sounds very like the approach Pascal and Bertram are advocating as well - the ACE scale. Was it mentioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 It was Chris Pascal speaking at the conference Wolfie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 It was Karen Ramsey presenting the Learning stories in place of Wendy Lee who had to fly home due to the sudden death of her mother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 The Three Mountains of Time was a quote from a child attending a Reggio Emilia setting describing the model she had made to explain time. Jan used the quote at the beginning of his speech and presented his own version of it at the end to sum up his future vision for assessment.

Guest Wolfie Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Ah, that explains it then Marion! I could lsiten to her for hours, she just speaks so much sense. I have to confess one more thing..until this thread began, I though Jan Dubiel was female!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 It was Karen Ramsey presenting the Learning stories in place of Wendy Lee who had to fly home due to the sudden death of her mother. She's getting a lot out of her trip - we saw her at Pen Green on Saturday! I guess when you come all this way you have to make the most of it!

HappyMaz Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I have to confess one more thing..until this thread began, I though Jan Dubiel was female!! You would think they'd make it clear in advertising literature/course information wouldn't you? Its an easy assumption to make isn't it?

Guest Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Still keeping my fingers crossed that you get the mountain quote from Jan, Marion, I searched Google without success and would really love to share it with my work colleagues too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marion Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 I got a reply from Jan Dubiel today "Apologies for the delay; I have had to check copyright and legal issues; everything from Reggio Emelia pre-schools belongs to Reggio Children and permission has to be sought. The excerpt is from a book entitled 'The future is a beautiful day' and is by Georgia, 5 working with staff with staff at preschool of St. Ilario d'Enza,. Please reference this with any use.
