Ramey Rieger (X) Sep 9, 2011:
Thank-you, Olympio Now we have a better idea! "Fair play training" or "Formative playing skills" (ooo, thant's not bad!)
Kathi Stock (asker) Sep 8, 2011:
Spielerziehung Werkerziehung is crafts, but Spielerziehung gives me a headache. It is one of the courses she attended while at vocational school.
Ramey Rieger (X) Sep 8, 2011:
Hello Kathi! Did she teach them to play or playfully teach? When talking of subjects she has taught or been taught, Werkerziehung, for example, could simply be shop or workshop, Musikerziehung is either Music education or simply Music. Play-school is unfortunately copyrighted even though it's spelled/spelt differently.

play skills instruction

Or teaching play skills. I considered Olympio's reference material in German and tried to think of something that emphasizes more of an organized way of teaching kids how to play, i.e. how to improve their play skills by being more creative and more adept at creating new games and, analyzing games and participating in group games, etc.

All of the references I could find for play skills instruction or teaching play skills however referred to children with autism, since it was concluded that they particularly have difficulties with play skills and such instruction could be highly beneficial for them. Even if the German doesn't refer to autism, I think that this could still be a similar concept and worth consideration for being able to cover the wide variety of connotations of the German.

You can see this website for a general reference of how the term is used in English for teaching autistic children: http://www.education.txstate.edu/ci/people/faculty/Boutot/co...

agree lexispro : Dear Phil, surely teachinand learning are simply points on the same continuum?

neutral olympio (X) : Spielerziehung seems to have some other connotations. See my reference below.

agree Mech White : Since this however is about the studies of an Early Childhood Teacher (Erzieherin), I agree with Gabriella, this is the correct term

educational playtime/games

I went from "Spielerziehung" to "pedägogisch wertvoll" to education.
Play education, is of course out, as well as playful teaching. so here I landed at the above suggestion. Good luck!

formative playing skills (my favourite)
fair-play training.

Peer comments on this reference comment:
agree Horst Huber (X) : From this list of topics one would infer something like "schooling in the ... of play"; the practice? the art? It is more than skills and drills.

Any idea what this would be in English?
