Розвиток пізнавального інтересу дошкільників засобами хореографії у процесі формування елементарних математичних уявлень

Abstract

In the context of humanization and democratization of the educational space, the issues of comprehensive development of preschool-age child, development of his creative potential, national consciousness, independence and formation of interaction skills with other people become especially relevant. The development of the theory and practice of preschool education in Ukraine makes it possible to state today the forms today, methods and techniques of the educational process are being improved. Today there is a need for purposeful development of logical methods of thinking of preschoolers, which is provided, first of all, in the process of formation of elementary mathematical representations. The main place in this process belongs to the development of cognitive interest of preschoolers. The article has shown that it will have a positive effect on the expansion of the outlook of preschool children and will help to consolidate basic mathematical ideas of creating such an educational environment, when these classes will be combined with the use of means of choreographic influence. The purpose of the article – using elements of rhythm and choreography to integrate mathematical content in the play activities of preschool children. A search and bibliographic tool is used to collect, accumulate, and describe the necessary information sources by us; analysis and synthesis – to organize the procedure of research search; methods of generalization and systematization – for rational processing of the obtained results. Today, in order to form a comprehensive picture of the world and the ability of students to apply their knowledge in typical as well as atypical situations, modern preschool education should be directed not at the acquisition of individual knowledge from different fields by children, but at their integration. Educators need to organize the educational-cognitive process so that it stimulates the cognitive-search, mathematical activity of children, develops the ability to make assumptions, find out contradictions, formulate decisions. The article substantiates the importance of using the kindergarten preschool institutions to entertain the potential of mathematical and choreographic play. Examples of such games are provided. Having been preparing children for study at the New Ukrainian School, the caregivers should pay particular attention to integrating logic and mathematical development with other artistic pursuits. In particular, the combination with various forms of choreographic activity is quite successful.
