Experiential Pedagogical Method in Primary School

Abstract

As the primary school is not only a training ground for the theoretical preparation of students for life, its practical component is equally important. Unfortunately, the latter is performed very little or almost never, though it has a very strong impact on the childʼs self-esteem, physical development, and his personality as a whole. In this article, we analyzed the so-called “experiential pedagogical weekend” containing the main elements of experiential pedagogy which help to improve students’ self-confidence, self-esteem, as well as their peer relationships. It is with the latter that the greatest progress is expected after the weekend.
