فلسفه و کلام اسلامی

Think of doing philosophy with children. What picture does this

conjure up? Should we imagine classes slaving over the works of

Plato or listening to a lecture on educational philosophy? Think

again.

Whether it is truth or beauty, friendship or fairness, what?s

right or what?s real, philosophy deals with so many things that

children love to discuss. Set these ideas and concerns in stories

and novels written for children. Add to this the procedures of classroom

inquiry based upon the philosophical tools of reasoning and imaginative

exploration. Top it off with a teacher whose role is to develop

and challenge the students thinking. This is the starting point

for philosophy for children
