Abstract
Through the free, emancipated by the adult game during the classical childhood, skills for constructive personal behavior in a social environment, understood as context competencies, are built. At present, the current legal basis, by which the competencies (knowledge, skills, relationships) required at the end of each age period are written down / determined, consists of the Pre-School and School Education Act of 2015 (PSSEA) and the hereto belonging Ordinance (Standard) on Civil, Health, Environmental and Intercultural Education (OCHEIE). According to these documents, the personal realization of each child in the educational institution is considered as a consequence of the unity between the activities of education, training and socialization in the conditions of kindergarten and elementary school.The satisfaction of the children's needs for emotional co-experience and communication through gaming activity in the conditions of kindergarten and school is the duty of the educator. The right to play is justified in Art. 31 para. 1 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and Bulgarian children and primary teachers are professionally competent in their commitments to provide gaming resources in educational institutions. The diagnosis of specific context competences, developed through the game, that are met in the Standard on Civil, Health, Environmental and Intercultural Education is an activity, that is important for the proper social and psycho-physical development of the child. This activity can be implemented in three dimensions (research approaches):- Recognizing context competences within such key competences through Observation method;- Naming or the discovery of context competences within such key competences through the Interview method;- Objectification and justification of context competences within such key competences through the Survey and Expert assessment methods.The Observation and Interview methods are carried out in close interaction with the children. The respondents Survey and Expert Assessment methods are the pedagogues. The aim of the pilot study is to establish the reliability of the three approaches and on this basis to construct a reliable research methodology related to the development of contextual competences through gaming activity in the kindergarten and elementary school.
