Curricular activity in the kindergarten as a way and manner to develop creativity

Temo za diplomsko nalogo sem si izbrala na področju tehnike in tehnologije, ki sem jo obdelala teoretično in spremljala v praksi skozi izvajanje interesne dejavnosti »Lutkovna delavnica«. Otrokom sem želela prikazati tehniko kot prijetno, zanimivo in novo izkušnjo ter drugačno pot do uporabnega izdelka. Najboljši način, kako tehniko približati otrokom, pa je seveda izvajanje tehnične dejavnosti skupaj z otroki. Z diplomsko nalogo » Interesna dejavnost v vrtcih kot oblika in način za razvoj ustvarjalnosti« sem želela spoznati otrokove spretnosti, njihovo vztrajnost, natančnost, ustvarjalnost, delovne navade in medsebojno sodelovanje. Naloga je zgrajena iz teoretičnega, empiričnega in praktičnega dela. Poudarek je bil na izkustvenem učenju, preko katerega so otroci poskušali doseči zastavljeni cilj. Teoretični del zajema otrokove razvojne značilnosti, igro, opredelitev dejavnosti, opis tehnike in tehnologije. V empiričnem delu je predstavljena metoda akcijskega raziskovanja, obdelava podatkov na podlagi opazovalnega lista. Praktični del pa zajema pripravo za izvajanje interesne dejavnosti, program interesne dejavnosti, operacijske liste, dnevnike dela in fotozapis. Podatke, ki sem jih dobila z izdelavo diplomske naloge, so spodbudni in dajejo smernice, motivacijo ter nove predloge za prakso.The main theme of my diploma paper was chosen in the field of craft and technology. It has been dealt with theoretically and practically with the help of curricular activity \u27Puppet workshop\u27. I wanted to introduce the technique to children as nice, interesting, as a new experience and as a different way to the useful product. The best way to introduce this technique to children is to perform craft activities together with children. With my diploma paper titled \u27Curricular activity in the kindergarten as a way and manner to develop creativity\u27 I wanted to discover child\u27s abilities, their persistence, accuracy, creativity, working habits and mutual cooperation. The diploma paper consists of theoretical, empirical and practical part. The emphasis was on experiential learning, with which children tried to reach their goal. Theoretical part covers child\u27s developmental characteristics, game, definition of activity, description of craft and technology. Empirical part shows a method of action research, information processing on the base of observation form. Practical part deals with preparation to perform curricular activity, its programme, operational forms, workbook and photo record. Information, which was gained through diploma paper, is stimulative and gives direction, motivation and new suggestions for the practice
