Preschool teacher and didactic resource

Mathematics – Manipulatives – Graph

During long-term work in preschooling the experience showed that obvious resources produced by the preschool teacher have multiple role and significance for progress of preschool child. A number of various materials, working in favor of a preschool child acquiring knowledges and skills, were produced through our work on a number of various themes important for learning basic mathematical concepts and development of children’s graph-motoric. From initiating thought processes and divergent thinking to movement of smallest hand parts, from fingers to esthetic experience during execution of set tasks. Manipulatives are easy to use, available, and cheap to produce because we are producing them out of secondary materials. Visualization at preschool age has an important role because connecting picture with instructions provides easier and faster way for a child to achieve the goal and solve the problem.   

On a poster presentation we would present the resources intended for work on the above mentioned aspects of development, produced during one working preschool year from September to June,  and in order to familiarize our colleagues with methodical procedures for which we think are suitable for simpler and equally “effective” elaboration of methodic units: geometrical shapes,    covering numbers 1 to 10, acquiring number concept…
