Pedagoger om barnlitteraturens roll i förskolan


AbstractReading books to children is often an integral part in preschool activities. The purpose of thisstudy is to investigate how educators think about the educational function of literature inpreschool activities. I have in my study used qualitative interviews with active educators andobservations to answer my questions about why the educator reads to the children, how theeducator thinks about the choice of literature and if the literature can contribute to thechildrens development and if so, how. The knowledge- and research background presentsliterature and previous research done on the subject. The results of my study shows that theeducators have many thoughts about the importance of literature in preschool. The educatorsconsider that the use of literature can contribute to the childrens language development,improve empathic ability and encourage imagination. A common view of the use of literaturewas also to gather the children to get them calm and relaxed after lunch. The educatorsexpressed that the lack of time was a problem to make the use of literature to such ameaningful activity that it could be.
