NATURAL SCIENCE TEACHING THROUGH „LEARNING THROUGH PLAY“ STRATEGY

Abstract

Through the use of creativity, original thinking, humour, and respect for the child, modern teachers motivate learners to seek knowledge, learn, and make sense of what is happening in nature. By way of playing in a dedicated natural environment, preschoolers learn to set personal goals, pose questions, explore, find creative and innovative ways of doing things, use information technology, reason about what they have learned, share knowledge with others, create, and plan a further course of action. Keywords: natural science, learning by playing, action strategy.
