Abstract	This paper offers examples of how the preschool child's and teacher's perceptions of activities differ and indicates consequences for children when such differences are not considered. Additionally, findings of related research are reported. It is pointed out that such examples could have implications for the content of the preschool and primary school curriculum, and that the risk of problems in school is increased if the child does not understand the assumptions about learning made by adults. Although school-like activities are increasingly found in the preschool, preschool teaching needs to be structured differently from that in the traditional school. Further, such structuring can be accomplished if adults thematize and make problematic in a goal-directed way certain aspects of the child's everyday life in order to give the child a chance to think in the context of challenging activities. Teaching at preschool and primary stages of schooling should begin with and have as a goal, the child's thinking. (RH)
