Children Observed

Synopsis
Shows children aged five to nine in various potential learning situations and activities, individually and in groups. Some are very free and in others the teacher has done little more than provide the materials and equipment. In no case is there strong teacher direction. The main purpose of the film is for teacher training, presenting samples of children’s behaviour in physical activities, reactions to stimuli, imaginative and creative achievement and social interaction.
