Sarah Hohrath; Sandra Aßmann; Heiko Krabbe; Maria Opfermann – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024

Japanese teachers consider clean-up time to be the group's responsibility, and they rely on the use of music and encouragement to make clean-up time an appealing activity. The children's positive feelings also may be partially explained by the fact that teachers consider clean-up time to be an extension of play, saving toys and activities for the…

John O'Reilly; Emmanuel O'Grady – Education 3-13, 2024
