Reggio Italy: Portfolios


While dashing through the ECE programs in Reggio Emilia, Italy last spring, it was all I could do to keep my camera clicking at the speed of sound -- with batteries and memory card cooperating. There were images in every possible direction that I wanted to document.

As we explored one of the "Art" rooms I was fortunate to stop and think to capture some images of the children's individual portfolios stacked neatly in a corner on the counter top.

As you can see, each child in the class had a delightful presentation of their first name and a painted work-of-art on the tag-board like front cover of their portfolio.




I wanted to spend all morning pouring over the specific pieces inside each portfolio, but time was of the essence and all I could do was swoop into one collection and snap a picture of the pieces on the top. BEHOLD!!! The work of Alessia.

  1. Thanks so much for posting all of these! How were the portfolios compiled? Were they just stacks of papers or were they connected somehow? Thank you! :)
