ABSTRACT

We learn almost everything we know through the language or languages we understand, speak, read, listen to, write, draw, paint, sing, narrate, question, understand, appreciate, explain and use. Loris Malaguzzi, founder of the famous early years provision in Reggio Emilia, called all the ways we have of expressing our feelings and ideas the hundred languages. Young children use these languages all the time as they make sense of their worlds and the people in them. In the UK the curriculum followed for young children is divided into two different sets of guidance: the Early Years Foundation Stage for children aged 2 to 5 and the National Curriculum for those aged 5 to 7. In the United States, Nancy Hornberger and Holly Link critically reviewed No Child Left Behind, Obama's reauthorisation of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, and designed to be the government's flagship aid programme for disadvantaged students.
