VI. Methodological competence: learning process
Learning process
• 
Animators respect the three steps of learning (experimentation – experimentation- 
correction).
• 
Animators give individual and group corrections during and after the activity.
• 
Animators give time to children to repeat and improve the exercises and 
movements.
Quality
• 
Animators request and lead children towards achieving the best quality for activity 
implementation.
• 
Animators adapt the activity to reach a certain qualitative outcome, if the activity 
is too difficult.
Feedback
• Animators ask children questions about what was difficult and what they have 
learned.
• 
Animators give feedback to children about positive outcomes and what needs to 
be improved next. 
VII. Methodological competence: cooperation / competition
Cooperation
• 
All children are integrated and must work to reach a collective objective all 
together.
• 
Animators organize games where there is no exclusion of children.
Competition
• 
Animators insist more on the quality of actions and the importance of playing 
than the notion of ‘winning’ or ‘losing’.
• 
Animators put children in situations which promote personal competition rather 
than team competition.
• 
Animators reach a balance between cooperative games (one single group) and 
competitive games (several teams).
