Barns lek som deltakelse i skolehverdagen
Abstract
This study discusses children’s experiences with play in first grade in Norwegian school. Through interviews with children (Grades 1–3) they emphasized that the best thing about school was play and they associate it to three aspects: the opportunity to participate in a child community, to participate in child-initiated play and to participate in creating the place. They experienced that there was less time for play in school compared with kindergarten. The question is whether a school life focusing on teaching deprives children an important kind of participation.
