dc.description Young children and their teachers benefit when they learn a work style that includes successive approximations before reaching a final product. These successive attempts can be thought of as editing, and the Reggio Emilia approach offers patterns to help children achieve this style of work. A drawing done by a group of children offers an example of a task that can incorporate editingthrough revisiting of what has been drawn, translation into other media or "languages," and development of consensus among the children on how to improve it. Teachers should strive to free children from the burden of instant perfectionism so that they can instead develop skills in investigation, communication, and creativity.
