Abstract

The purpose of this research is to organize and highlight how the curriculum subject contents are treated in the various activities of occupation at Dewey School in regards to cooperation, problem solving, choice of theme and the teacher's role. Moreover is the clarification of subject contents in each age group by comparing the teaching contents of each subject from the Japanese curriculum guidelines. The research methods are to analyze various activities of occupation of each grade which corresponds to elementary school in Japan at Dewey School from the perspective of subject content, and to sort out the derived subject contents while comparing teaching content of curriculum guidelines. We found that at Dewey School children choose themes and proceed with occupation to solve problems jointly and the teacher's role is to support the children's activities. When contrasting the process of occupation activities and courses of study, we revealed that children learn various subject contents from 1st grade to high school by linking them. In the Dewey School, the learning content itself had both inter-curricular content and continuity between grades, which could be considered cross-curricular learning.
