ABSTRACT
Time is valued in the Reggio Approach for all the different opportunities it provides. In particular educators in Reggio value time for:
■ continuity – children and teachers build up strong relationships as they stay together for the whole three-year period that children attend the centre;
■ daily life – time to be, to do, to meet, to play, to think and reflect, to talk, to listen, to rest and to eat;
■ long-term projects – known in Reggio as ‘progettazione’, which last from a few days to three months.
