Excerpt from the book
7.1. Project work
Projects offer very good opportunities for children to expand their vocabulary with fun and interest. Each project includes a topic that is dealt with particularly intensively. We select things from the everyday life of the children and always take into account their interests and their level of development. In fact, we attach great importance to projects arising from the interest and curiosity of the children.
The exploration of the general world of life leads to the expansion of the child's horizon. New learning experiences are coming, not only in the cognitive area, but also in social and personality-related areas. New sensory connections are recognized, understood and understood by the children. In this way, they develop the joy of learning, expand and deepen their knowledge and learn to learn.
Each project contains a variety of learning words and phrases ready. However, the project work is not about learning individual vocabulary words, but about recognizing and using other words and sentences in a new context.
Since certain words and contexts occur again and again in a project, the learning effect is particularly high. This is also an advantage because the words are rediscovered and deepened by the children.
In all actions, the German language is discovered with the most diverse senses. In one of our many actions, we made e.B applesauce ourselves. Children could taste and smell here, for example,.B, which means the word "sweet".
