| Summary: | Mnemotechnics or mental maps aim to increase mental literacy, that is to say, more balanced use of left and right brain hemisphere and thus mental capability. This paper illustrates possibilities for the use of mental maps in thematic curriculum planning for preschool aged children. Thematic planning is a complex, cyclical and interactive process in which of central importance are needs and interests of both children and their parents, as well as characteristics of the overall life context of children and adults in preschool institution. The paper presents how a 'life topic' can be developed through the use of software tools for creating mental maps, in order to increase the effectiveness of thematic planning. |
