Predšolsko obdobje ima izjemno pomembno vlogo za življenje posameznika in družbo nasploh, saj se otrok v tem obdobju razvija na vseh področjih z izjemno hitrostjo. V diplomskem delu sem raziskovala NTC-program, ki je prilagojen za delo s predšolskimi otroki. Program je osredinjen na razvoj možganov in je v osnovi namenjen za otroke od sedmega leta naprej, vendar ga je avtor prilagodil tudi za otoke v starosti 3–6 let. Namen mojega raziskovanja je bil ugotoviti, ali je program mogoče prilagoditi tudi za najmlajše otroke v vrtcu. V teoretičnem delu sem predstavila predšolsko vzgojo; Kurikulum za vrtce, ki je osnova za delo; spodbudno učno okolje in spontano oziroma izkustveno učenje. Izpostavila sem NTC-program, njegove zakonitosti, uporabo in vlogo vzgojitelja pri vpeljavi teh dejavnosti. V empiričnem delu sem ugotavljala, ali je program možno prilagoditi tudi za delo z najmlajšimi in v kolikšni meri je to sploh mogoče. NTC-program bogati Kurikulum za vrtce s predlogi konkretnih primerov dejavnosti in priporočili za starše in vzgojitelje. Izdelala in preizkusila sem pet sklopov dejavnosti (aplikator, senzorna omara, riž, premikajoče žoge in poligon) z različnih področij in na podlagi tega zapisala ugotovitve. Z aplikatorjem sem želela spodbuditi otrokovo razmišljanje glede postavitve oziroma prirejanja predmetov, poleg tega so urili še fino motoriko in akomodacijo očesa. Prek senzorne omare so pridobivali izkušnje o različnih teksturah predmetov in s tem povezana različna ali podobna občutja ter razvijali asociacije. Pri igri z rižem so urili svojo fino motoriko in senzorične dražljaje ter akomodacijo očesa in ravnotežje. Igra z žogami je pozitivno vplivala predvsem na njihovo ravnotežje in rotacijo. S poligonom v telovadnici so otroci urili svoje gibalne sposobnosti in se preizkušali v izzivih z lastnim telesom. Prek teh dejavnosti sem ugotovila, da je vpeljava NTC-programa s prilagojenimi dejavnostmi primerna za delo z najmlajšimi otroki.

• Title: Role of pre-school teacher in NTC activities

Abstract

Preschool period is of fundamental importance in an individual’s life and in the society as a whole as this is the time when children develop very quickly in all areas. The thesis researches the NTC program adapted to be used with preschool children. The program focuses on brain development and is mainly aimed at children from the age of 7 onwards. However, the author adapted the program for children aged between 3 and 6 years as well. The aim of my research was to determine whether the program can be also used with the youngest children. The theoretical part presents early childhood education, the Kindergarten Curriculum, which is the basis for the work in the kindergarten, and a stimulating learning environment along with spontaneous or experiential learning. I also highlighted the NTC program, its characteristics and its use, but also the role of the preschool teacher in implementing these activities. The aim of the empirical part is to determine whether the program may be adjusted to be able to work with the youngest children and to what extent. NTC enriches the Kindergarten Curriculum with specific examples of activities and recommendations for parents and preschool teachers. I developed and tested five blocks of activities (felt board with toys, interactive wardrobe, rice, moving balls and obstacle course) from different areas and recorded the findings. The purpose of the felt board with toys was to encourage the child’s thinking regarding the position and the movement of the object and develop fine motor control as well as visual accommodation. The interactive wardrobe allowed children to gain experience regarding different textures of objects and different or similar senses, and to develop associations. Children also developed fine motor skills and visual accommodation and experienced sensory stimuli by playing with rice. The game with balls had a positive impact on their balance and rotation in particular. The obstacle course in the gym allowed children to develop their motor skills and challenge themselves. These activities have shown that the implementation of the NTC program with adjusted activities can be used with the youngest children.
