Preschool Teachers’ Attitudes towards Play

Sažetak

The review of contemporary theoretical and empirical papers about play indicates contradictory conceptualisations of play in general, and especially of the roles of preschool teachers in play. The roles of adults in play in institutional early childhood context are considered on a continuum, from regulation to support of adults, i.e. child participation. This paper presents preliminary research results about preschool teachers' attitudes towards play and their roles in it. The results indicate that preschool teachers have contradictory attitudes towards play in institutional context. We presume that the results of this research could be useful for preschool teachers and theorists dealing with play.
