Abstract

This paper describes the training of sixth and seventh graders in helping with preschoolers. So far 230 students have been involved in three 2 1/2 hour play sessions. After helping, students filled in observation forms and met with the writer for a half-hour discussion and feedback. The training concentrated on helping them understand normal development, the concept of developmental stages, on self-awareness and the learning of communication skills to facilitate caring and interaction with young children.
