In Search of Interesting Programmes of Developing Children’s Creative Activeness
Abstract
One of the important tasks for an early-education teacher is the creation of an environment favouring the development and creative activity of children which is revealed in a spontaneous or inspired activeness of play, graphical, verbal, musical or motion character. The concern related to developing creativity and its embedding in educational practice seems a vital task for a school and one of the most urgent challenges for a contemporary teacher. Therefore, this publication has made an attempt at a content-related analysis of texts of curricula designed to develop children’s creative activeness paying special attention to aims, rules, contents and the methods of realisation. Three publications were subjected to the analysis. They are: Program edukacyjny Żywioły. Lekcje twórczości w nauczaniu zintegrowanym by Jolanta Bonar and Krzysztof Jan Szmidt; Podróże, skarby, przygoda. Podręcznik i program rozwijania twórczości, samoświadomości oraz dyspozycji autokreacyjnych dzieci klas I–III by Janina Uszyńska-Jarmoc and Krok w kierunku kreatywności. Program stymulowania twórczości na etapie edukacji przedszkolnej i wczesnoszkolnej by Mariola Jąder. The analysis of the syllabuses shows that they fit perfectly into the contemporary direction of the integrated teaching. Not only do they take into consideration the integration of aims, contents, forms of expression and the methods of supporting children’s creative activeness but also they offer some interesting rules for working with children.
