Correct Answer - Option 3 : Froebel
The Kindergarten system of teaching is propounded by Friedrich Frobel, a German pedagogue.
Note that:
- In this method, he characterized children as 'plants' and the teachers as the 'gardeners' because they are the optimistic ones who could foster the potential of young seedlings to grow and bloom.
- The purpose of this method is to provide children with rich, meaningful, and balanced learning through appropriate activities at their own pace in a collaborative environment.
- It is based on the physiological principle of development and growth to keep the child fit and enables the overall development of the child and understanding of the subject to make learning more effective.
Hence, we conclude that the originator of the Kindergarten system is Friedrich Frobel.
