Title: Meal in preschool, what is the preschool teachers´ action based on? Author: Cecilia Holst Supervisor: Helena Andersson Purpose and questions: My purpose with this essay is to contribute to an increased knowledge about what governs preschool teachers´ action; educational capital or science and proven experience during meals. This can be useful to me, nannies, preschool teachers, headmasters/headmistresses, principals or other professions and stakeholders, which has connection to preschool operation. The secondary gain of the study, will hopefully be, an increased awareness and new knowledge for those who absorb the knowledge in this study. In this way also in everyday practice in meetings with the children at the preschool during the meals which can provide a change for the children. What is the preschool teachers´ action based on at the meals, science and proven methods or pedagogical capital? Scientific basis and proven experience; how does it appear at the meal in preschool teachers´ meeting with the children? Theory: The theories I based on are hermeneutical and systems theory. Method: The survey was conducted with semi-structured interviews of six preschool teachers. Summary: In 2011, it was introduced in the Education Act that the education must be based on a scientific basis and proven experience. This study aims to investigate if the preschool teachers use their pedagogical capital or scientific basis and proven experience at the meal in preschool. The study has a hermeneutic theorem, and the analysis has been done with systems theory. The empirical data in the study comes from semi-structured interviews with preschool teachers and the result consists of eleven different parts. Role models, theory as a role model, own relationship to food, the main questions of the study, interpretation of the children, peace and quiet, dining room, fewer children, table placements and pandemic. Summary: The meal is a situation that is mostly based on educational capital, but there are situations where knowledge of language development and motor skills support preschool teachers in the implementation at the meal.
