DOES THE SLOVENIAN VOLKSONG STILL EXIST AMONG OUR FIFTGRADES?

Ljudska glasba je pomemben del narodove kulturne dediščine in je vključena v Učni načrt za glasbeno vzgojo v osnovnih šolah. Učiteljem daje ogromno idej in možnosti, kako otrokom približati to glasbeno zvrst ter prispevati k ohranjanju slovenske ljudske pesmi ter njihovo življenje in prenašanje na prihodnje rodove, kot del narodove dediščine. Namen diplomske naloge je bil ugotoviti v kolikšni meri in na kakšen način je ljudska pesem sploh prisotna med slovenskimi petošolci. V raziskavo je bilo vključenih 200 učencev in učenk petih razredov iz ptujskega območja, od tega je bilo 100 učencev in učenk mestnih šol (OŠ Mladika, OŠ Ljudski vrt, OŠ Olge Meglič) ter 100 učencev in učenk podeželskih šol (OŠ Gorišnica, OŠ Destrnik, OŠ Markovci, OŠ Dornava) . Pri raziskavi je bila uporabljena deskriptivna metoda empiričnega pedagoškega raziskovalnega dela. Rezultati so bili pridobljeni s pomočjo anketnih vprašalnikov. Ugotovili smo, da imajo petošolci radi ljudske pesmi. Najpomembnejšo vlogo pri ohranjanju ljudskega izročila ima šola. Velikih odstopanj v poznavanju ljudskih pesmi med mestno ali podeželsko šolo ni bilo zaznati. Zavedati se moramo, da poplava sodobne glasbe in različnih glasbenih stilov še ne pomeni kvalitetne glasbe. V vzgojno-izobraževalni proces je potrebno vključiti ljudsko glasbo, da se bo bogata kulturna dediščina, ki jo imamo v Sloveniji, ohranjala še naprej. Ključne besede: ljudsko izročilo, ljudska glasba, značilnosti slovenske ljudske pesmi, učni načrt za glasbeno vzgojo, ljudska pesem v prvem in drugem triletju.Folk music is an important part of the nation’s cultural heritage and is included in the syllabus for musical education in primary schools. It gives teachers a variety of possibilities of how to bring this music type closer to children and preserving the Slovenian folk songs and their lives as well as pass them down to future generations as a part of their national heritage. The purpose of this diploma paper is to establish to what extent and in which way, is the folk music present among Slovenian fifth-graders. The research is based on 200 fifth grade pupils within the Ptuj region, 100 of them are pupils from urban schools (OŠ Mladika, OŠ Ljudski vrt, OŠ Ogle Meglič) and 100 of them come from rural schools (OŠ Gorišnica, OŠ Destrnik, OŠ Markovci, OŠ Dornava). The descriptive method of the empirical pedagogical research work was used in the research. The results were gained by questionnaires. We found out that the fifth-graders like folk songs. The school is taking over the most important role in preserving the folk tradition. There were no essential differences in the knowledge of the folk songs or music among the pupils from the urban or rural areas. We have to be aware that the flood of modern music and different music styles does not necessarily mean qualitative music. We must include folk music in the educational process in order to preserve the rich Slovenian heritage in the future
