Bottega Child Development Center developed a unique program focused on meeting each child's individual needs. We view education as a continuous process of growing and learning. We see ourselves as teacher researchers, continuously offering meaningful experiences to our students reflecting on their processes of thinking, learning and how they build understanding. We invite children to become active and engaged learners as well as critical and creative thinkers. Through the inquiry approach we invite our students to co-construct their knowledge alongside their teachers. Our teachers are curriculum designers, inspired by Reggio Emilia Philosophy and implementing Visible Thinking Strategies created by Harvard University, Project Zero. Our approach is attuned to the challenges of the 21st century by being mindful about relationships, empathy, critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, innovation, exploration, discovery, reflection and cultural awareness. "Education is a social process; education is growth; education is not a preparation for life but is life itself." John Dewey
