Solasaldi literarioak haur hezkuntzan: Donostiako ikastola batean burututako esperientzia

Abstract

Literary discussion groups are strategies based on dialogue and interaction with pupils. The general objective of this study is to analyse the validity of literary discussion groups when working on basic transversal skills and areas of learning in Pre-School Education. The experience took place at an 'ikastola' [Basque Language Immersion School] in Donostia and 21 pupils (15 girls and 6 boys) from the 5-year-old class participated. Once the conversations about the four stories had been analysed, the appropriateness of the literary discussion groups for working on the areas of experience and basic transversal skills in Pre-School Education became clear. The skills most focused on in the experience were communication, living together and the skill of learning to be. Those receiving less attention were entrepreneurial skills and the skill of learning to learn. In the end, the importance of integral development of pupils in Pre-School Education was underlined, as well as the role of teachers when developing this type of methodological strategy.
