Steps:
1.
Contemplation of the
picture book with the children in kindergarten: The picture book should
supply information about all activities around the construction of buildings.
The children talk about their own experiences with building sites and
renovations.
2.
The children take over the
roles of little architects" and draw building plans. A planning briefcase
develops. (The nursery school teacher adds explanations if the children ask
him or her to do this).
3. Clarifying what materials are required,
decision on the place of the "building site" and ways of
proceeding. 4. Parents are invited and informed about the idea of the
project. Parents contribute with their own ideas and also supply the
necessary materials.
