Activity from guest lecture with Anja and Marlene

1. All the children on the floor
(version 1)
All the children are on the floor. The narrator tells the story and decides which character the children will be. Everyone are the same character the entire time, but as the story is being told the children change their character.

2. All the children on the floor
(version 2)
All the children are on the floor. They are selected into groups where each group represents a character. As the story is being told, the children move around and act out the story.

Activites from guest lectures Anja & Marlene

On this page I have written down two ways of telling a story.
I have named the first one "Adventurous massage".
The children go together two by two. One massage the other one while telling a story. The child can give the massage the way the story goes.
This can also be done by an adult and a child.
Notes: Friendship, less conflict, relaxing and safety.

The other activity is called "imaginary storytelling".
A group of 4-5 children gather around in a circle. The adult blindfold the children. While the children are blindfolded the adult start telling a story. Every time there is a decision to be made. the adult tapps on one child's shoulder. The child can be asked an open question or a more closed question.
Notes:
Taking turns, children exercising their imagination.

A quote from the Norwegian Kindergarten Act, the Framework Plan.

Activity from guest lectures Anja & Marlene

A description of magical box
Magical box:
You create your own box. Put glitter on it, stickers or draw on it.
Then cut out pictures from magazines and put them on a card.
Then pass the box around and everyone has to pick a card.
Then one by  one tell the story by using the picture of their card.
It is important to use your imagination, but also to listen to what other people have said.

After a few weeks since the course started I realised I needed a notebook where I could write down all the games I learned. I bought a notebook and startet categorising different types of games. See F.2 for content.
During the whole course I have used this book to create a collection of everything useful I have learned. My dream is to carry this book with me my entire career as a pre-school teacher.

During the course the entire class went on a trip to Gerlev legepark. The park is embossed by its values. They take play seriously, movement, explore and venture, simplicity and a sustainable culture.
We were introduced to the play park by one of the idrætspædagog (gym pedagogue. She introduced us to different games. Especially games which included everyone and had a deeper pedagogical meaning.

Together we helped each other with every problem we had. Here for instance, Susann is helping me solving how i could make the tale of my opera singing mermaid puppet.

Here is a picture of our storyboard. We did not spend a lot of time with the storyboard. We went straight to the workshop and began working on our puppets. We created the dialogues and monologues later on. All five in the group were certain of this way of working. If we had too many frames around the production, we were worried this could restrain our creativity. (IMPORTANT TO ELABORATE IN EXAM)

On our first day working on the puppet show production, we were told by our lecturer to go outside and feel inspired. We brought pen and paper and together as a group found this place. We listened, smelled and we recorded what we could see and hear. This became valuable material for the digital media in the production.

Here is a picture of our group. We stopped, took notes and talked about what we could her and see.

After only a few minutes some of us got ideas for a plot for a story. Our first few ideas of plot and characters later became the most essential parts of our puppet show.

Here you can see the great variations between the different houses.

Underneath the roof there is a campfire where the children together with the staff sometimes cook food. Next to it you can see some of the play gym the children can play with. This is made out of junk by the staff and the children.

The children showed us the different houses. Each house has a name and is inspired by a theme. They even told us where the girls normally play and where many of the boys play.

Emdrup Skrammellegeplads (junk playground) We visited the playground in the beginning of the semester. After visiting the playground each group had to do an analysis of the outdoor area.

When we first came to the playground we were welcomed by the children who used the institution as an after school leisure. They are all between the age six till 10. They gave our group a tour around the playground. They showed us places they used to play, hide and eat. We followed up with questions as we wanted to understand how they used their playground.

Here is a picture of another house. I was very inspired by these houses. I could not help myself reminiscing my own childhood. I would probably love to play in a house like this as it reminds me about the Moomins house (from the Finnish tales by Tove Jansson).

A.2 Creative storytelling - Creating a picturebook

Here you can see we have cut out pictures of the characters from the story. A few weeks earlier we played with plastilina and stop motion. We spent a lot of time working on the different characters, in which we took inspiration from famous fairytales. We were so proud of our work, and therefore decided to take pictures of them and cut them out in order to use them in the picture book.

From track IV. Together with my group we wrote a story, which we later created into a picture book. Here you can see the front page of the picture book. We discussed several times how the front page was going to look like. At one point we were running out of time. Togehter with two other student we made the decision about the final touches of the front page.

Here you can see a picture of one of the pages i made. I used ice-pop sticks to make the big house. I used matches to make the smallest house and i drew the the house made of bricks. I also drew the background. The characters are glued with regular paper glue. Using different materials made the book more sensory. We believed this would appeal to young children.
