Att känna trygghet i förskoleklassen
Hur några pedagoger arbetar med att skapa trygghet för barnen i förskoleklassen
My purpose with this study was to research how a few teachers work with the children in preschool class to achieve a group that the children feel safe and comfortable with. Every human being has got the need to feel safe and with this study I want to illustrate the importance about working to achieve safety for children in preschool class, and environment that is new to them. In order to try to get answers to my research questions I have interviewed five preschool class teachers. The results showed that the teachers work in a way that makes the children feel safe by helping them establish the daily routines and common rules for the preschool class. They also let the children in the preschool class get to know each other and other children in the school by play and shared activities. It is also important that the teacher creates a good relationship with each child and their carers by showing that it is there for the child and cares for it. The teachers had different ideas about how long time it might take before they consider the children as a safe children's group, from one month to one year, and also that some children will never be a safe children's group. To get there the teacher must work in a way that makes the children feel a sense of togetherness and belonging, and that the children must be able to show and get a consideration out of each other.
