Enhancing participation and pluralism in ECEC

Persico Greta, Norma Porcellana

The article describes the experience of creating a multilingual catalogue of sounds in a nursery school in order to respond to the interest first of a child and then of the group. The article examines the design of the catalogue, which was realised thanks to the involvement of adult family members, and describes how, over time, this proposal became part of an articulated educational setting. The experience sheds light on the generativity of a positive contamination between educational services and experiences within family contexts. Multiculturalism and multilingualism form the background of the writing, without being its central object, which is instead the experience of the children and the diversity that each of them brings to the educational context, enriching it.
