What is more, the curriculum for a special pedagogical activity Social learning used in the grades 1 to 6 was studied. The general and operative goals of the curriculum were divided in four categories: feelings, self-image, conflict resolution and encouraging tolerance and a sense of group belonging. The goals were analyzed and upgraded. A list of appropriate fairy tales is suggested for each of four categories. Various types of activities for the categories are derived from three fairy tales. Moreover, the connections between subjects are defined, since these are an important element of effective social learning besides linking with life experience and hidden curriculum. It is presented how the chosen areas of social learning could be linked with all basic educative and pedagogical subjects and various types of activities – cooperative games, art, music and movement activities, conversation, dramatization, multisensory learning and adapted social games.
