Roma families with preschool children and kindergarten in prekmurje and bela krajina

Romi so etična skupina ljudi, o katerih nas večina ne ve prav veliko. Prepoznamo jih po nekoliko drugačni barvi polti, po navadi so oblečeni v izrazito barvita oblačila, naseljeni so v preprostih domovih z večjim številom članov v družini. Govorijo svoj, nekoliko drugačen jezik, čeprav živijo na enakem področju Slovenije kot mi. V diplomskem delu Romska družina s predšolskim otrokom in vrtec v Prekmurju in Beli krajini smo želeli ugotoviti, ali obstaja razlika med vključevanjem predšolskih romskih otrok v vrtec in njihovim načinom življenja v Prekmurju in Beli krajini. V začetku teoretičnega dela smo podrobneje predstavili začetke in zgodovino Romov. Nadaljevali smo z načinom življenja Romov in romske družine s predšolskim otrokom, predstavili smo njihove značilnosti kot tudi posebnosti v kulturi in običajih. Ob koncu teoretičnega dela smo se osredotočili tudi na vzgojo predšolskih romskih otrok. Omenili smo tudi to, kako poteka vključevanje le-teh v vzgojno-izobraževalne institucije, kakšne ovire se ob tem pojavljajo ter navsezadnje nekaj o inkluziji in integraciji romskih otrok tako v vrtec kot tudi šolo. V empiričnem delu smo predstavili pridobljene podatke, ki smo jih pridobili s pomočjo intervjuja vzgojiteljic, pomočnic vzgojiteljic in romskih pomočnic treh različnih vrtcev, tako v Prekmurju kot tudi v Beli krajini, ter anketni vprašalnik, ki je bil izveden na populaciji tridesetih romskih staršev v Prekmurju in na populaciji tridesetih romskih staršev predšolskih otrok v Beli krajini. Raziskava je temeljila na tem, ali obstaja razlika v vključenosti predšolskih romskih otrok v vrtec glede na kraj Prekmurje in Bela krajina. Za konec smo želeli dobiti vpogled tudi v način življenja Romov in ugotoviti, ali se le-ta razlikuje med Prekmurjem in Belo krajino.The Roma are an ethical group of people that most of us do not know much about. They are recognizable for its slightly darker skin colour, usually dressed in extremely colourful clothes, living in simple homes with a larger number of family members. They speak their own, somewhat different language, in spite of the fact they live in the same area of Slovenia as we. The final paper The Romani Family with a Pre-School Child and Kindergarten in Prekmurje and Bela Krajina Region, aims to determine whether there is a difference between the inclusion of pre-school Roma children in kindergarten and their way of life in Prekmurje and Bela krajina region. The first part of the theoretical work presents, in more detail, the beginnings and the history of the Roma people. The second part describes the way of life of the Roma people and the life of the Romani family with a pre-school child. The paper describes their characteristics, as well as special features of their culture and customs. At the end of the theoretical part, the focus is on raising a pre-school Roma child, their inclusion of in the public educational institutions, the obstacles they are encountering and finally something about inclusion and integration of the Roma children in both the kindergartens and schools. The empirical part presents the acquired data, obtained through interviewing kindergarten teachers, assistant teachers and assistant teachers of Romani origin working in three different kindergartens, both in the Prekmurjeregion, as well as in Bela krajina. In addition, the survey questionnaire, which was filled by thirty Roma parents in Prekmurje and thirty Roma parents of pre-school children in the Bela krajina region. The researchwas based on whether there is a difference in the inclusion of pre-school Roma children in the kindergarten, depending on the place of their residence (Prekmurje or Bela krajina). The last part of the paper offers an insight into the way of life of the Roma people, to determine possible differences between Prekmurje and Bela krajina region
