Dossier WeitBlick NMG: GLOCKEN, KIPPA, TEPPICHE

The established series "Dossier 4 to 8" serves as the foundation for developing competencies included in the teaching material "WeitBlick NMG." Therefore, since 2021, the series has been called "Dossier WeitBlick NMG." The proven concept remains: practice-tested learning arrangements (modules) provide development-oriented approaches to competencies from the subject area NMG (Curriculum 21), support the planning of thematic, interdisciplinary teaching sequences, and create play-learning environments for early education. These can be adapted and supplemented with personal ideas depending on the teaching situation, class, and annual planning of the teacher.

The dossier "Bells, Kippa, Carpets" assists teachers in exploring religion-related phenomena with children from a cultural perspective. Children develop an awareness of religious traces in their environment and understand their significance for others. They learn that religions are lived and passed on, and that they can change. They perceive religious diversity and learn to respectfully engage with the worldviews of others. In this process, children gather experiences without it mattering what they personally believe.
