A Playful Frame for Primary Schools
1-13 p.
This volume explores the relationship between primary school and play from an international perspective. Play is widely recognised as a fundamental requirement, a pivotal cultural activity and an essential environment for peerbased socialisation for children of primary school age (Staccioli, 2008; Hamayon, 2016; Petillon, 2015; Sandberg & Heden, 2011). However, discourses and debates on play pedagogy in educational science at an international level (Bubikova-Moan, Næss Hjetland & Wollscheid, 2019; Pyle, De Luca & Daniels, 2017) predominantly focus on kindergarten with relatively few references to primary school education. Consequently, there is less research and knowledge on the latter regarding the integration of play within its setting (Paatsch et al., 2024). [Publisher's Text]
