Fitness for preschool children
No full textOčuvanje vlastitoga zdravlja treba predstavljati veliki značaj svakoga pojedinca. Aktivnim se načinom života i sviješću o zdravim navikama, uvelike doprinosi imunitetu i jačanju čovjekova organizma. Svaki se pojedinac treba, ili se barem treba željeti, osjećati zadovoljno u vlastitoj koži. Bavljenje tjelesnom aktivnošću i unošenje kvalitenih nutrijenata iz prehrane, smanjuje se mogućnost oboljevanja od kojekakvih bolesti. Isto tako, usvojenim zdravim navikama, utječe se na pojedinčevu okolinu koja ga okružuje, bilo da se radi o odraslim ljudima ili o djeci. Fitness, kao zdrav i uravnotežen način života, ne samo da doprinosi brojne dobrobiti na tjelesnoj razini, nego i pruža bolje mentalno zdravlje. U ovome će se radu spomenuti informacije vezane za fitness općenito, informacije o tjelovježbi, zdravlju i prehrani te raznovrsnosti fitness programa i vježbi za bebe i djecu predškolskoga uzrasta.Preserving one's own health should be of great importance to each individual.

By adopting healthy habits, whether being an adult or a child, we influence the environment that surrounds us. Fitness, as a healthy and balanced lifestyle, not only contributes to numerous benefits on a physical level but also provides better mental health. This document mentions information related to fitness in general, information on exercise, health, nutrition, and a variety of fitness programs and exercises for babies and preschool children
Enriching the museum experience with drama workshops and simple performance forms
No full textKazalište u muzeju jedno je od oblika primijenjenoga kazališta koje svojim značajkama sve više zauzima mjesto u muzejima diljem svijeta pa tako i u Republici Hrvatskoj. Obilježavaju ga nekonvencionalna mjesta izvedbe (unutrašnji i vanjski muzejski prostori, arheološka nalazišta, galerije i sl.), a s tradicionalnim kazalištem vežu ga neke zajedničke sličnosti, primjerice upotreba kostima i rekvizita, nerijetko glazbe i svjetla. Posjetitelji muzeja postaju muzejska publika koja se u potpunosti ili djelomično uključuje u tijek izvedbe. Ponekad se publika uopće ne uključuje već zauzima ulogu promatrača. Rad sadrži kratak pregled tehnika muzejskog kazališta te obrazlaže na koji način kazalište u muzeju utječe na stvaranje potencijalno stalne muzejske publike koja posjećuje muzeje ne samo zbog povremenih ili stalnih izložbi, već zbog dramskih radionica koje služe kao popratni program postojećem muzejskom sadržaju. Praktični dio rada proveden je u Etnografskom muzeju u Zagrebu, u suradnji s muzejskim pedagoginjama na način da su povremene izložbe upotpunjene dramskim radionicama i jednostavnim izvedbenim oblicima. Primijećeno je kako se ovakvim radionicama obogaćuje doživljaj muzeja te privlače različiti i zadovoljni posjetitelji.Museum theatre is one of the forms of applied theatre practices making its way into museums all over the world, including the museums of Croatia. Museum theatre is characterized by performances taking place in unconventional space (inside museums, on archaeological sites, in galleries, etc.). Nevertheless, museum theatres still have some similarities with traditional theatres, such as the use of costumes, props, music, and lights. In museum theatre, visitors turn into an audience that partially, or completely, becomes part of the performance. On the other hand, sometimes the audience doesn't get involved in the performance at all but assumes the role of an observer. This paper gives a brief overview of techniques employed by theatre museums and describes their role in forming a returning museum audience that visits not only for the permanent and temporary exhibitions but for occasional drama workshops accompanying the already existing museum content. The practical part of the paper was carried out in Zagreb Ethnographic Museum in collaboration with museum pedagogues. Occasional exhibitions were accompanied by drama workshops and simple performances. It has been noticed that these types of workshops enrich the museum experience. They attract various groups of people who end up leaving as satisfied visitors
Animalistic world of Maja Gluščević with special reference to the works Bundaš from the fifth be, Džeki aka Simpa, Neman in the city park
No full textAnimalistika novija je disciplina koja se javlja sedamdesetih godina 20. st., a jedna od njezinih grana je svakako književna animalistika. Interes čovjeka za životinje u književnim tekstovima javlja od samih početaka pisma, a u kontekstu odrastanja, dječji je svijet preplavljen životinjama i životinjskim likovima. Stoga je animalistički kontekst neizostavno mjesto istraživanja u dječjoj književnosti. Književnu animalistiku različiti teoretičari definiraju na različite načine, a ono što je zajedničko svim definicijama je to da animalistika prikazuje stanja, osobine i aktivnost životinja u književnim djelima. U dječjoj književnoj animalistici najčešće razlikujemo dva osnovna pristupa: antropomorfni i realistični, iako je teorijsko pitanje postoji li uopće mogućnost u potpunosti realističkog prikaza životinje (u dječjoj književnosti). Maja Gluščević je svakako među najznačajnijim hrvatskim predstavnicima hrvatskog animalističkog romana, a njezin pristup životinjskim likovima se uglavnom smatra realističkim. U svojim djelima prikazuje zajedništvo između djeteta i životinja, njihovo prijateljstvo, ljubav i odanost. Cilj ovog završnog rada je kroz odabrani opus prikazati karakteristike animalističke proze Maje Gluščević, uočiti važnost i ulogu lika psa te analizirati animalistički prikaz pasa i njihovu komunikaciju. U radu će se poseban fokus u analizi usmjeriti na djela: Bundaš iz petog be, Džeki zvani Simpa, Neman u gradskom parku.Animalistics is a newer discipline that emerged in the 1970s, and one of its branches is certainly literary animalistics. Man’s interest in animals in literary texts arises from the very beginnings of writing, and in the context of growing up, children’s world is flooded with animals and animal characters. Therefore, the animalistic context is an indispensable place of research in children’s literature. Literary animalistics is defined by different theorists in different ways, and what is common to all definitions is that animalistics depicts the states, characteristics, and activity of animals in literary works. In children's literary animalistics, we most often distinguish between two basic approaches: anthropomorphic and realistic, although the theoretical question is whether there is a possibility of a completely realistic depiction of animals (in children's literature). Maja Gluščević is certainly among the most important Croatian representatives of the Croatian animalistic novel, and her approach to animal characters is generally considered realistic. In hers works she depicts the communion between child and animal, their friendship, love and loyalty. The aim of this final thesis is to present the characteristics of animalistic prose by Maja Gluščević through the selected work, to notice the importance and role of the dog character and to analyze the animalistic presentation of dogs and their communication. This thesis will be particularly focused on these works: Bundaš iz petog be, Džeki zvani Simpa, Neman u gradskom parku
Music in art in early and preschool childhood
No full textLikovna i glazbena umjetnost ljudima služe da izraze svoje emocije, ideje. One ih okružuju gdje god se nalazili. Obje umjetnosti imaju utjecaj na dječji razvoj i sastavni su dio života svakog djeteta. Glazbu već čuje i fetus u majčinoj utrobi, a u najranijoj dobi dijete već ima potrebu za likovnim stvaralaštvom. Završni rad se sastoji od teorijskog i praktičnog dijela. U teorijskom dijelu je prikazan utjecaj glazbe na razvoj djeteta i razvoj glazbenih sposobnosti djeteta zatim utjecaj likovne umjetnosti na dječji razvoj te likovni razvoj djeteta i boja u dječjem crtežu. U praktičnom dijelu provedeno je istraživanje utjecaja glazbe na likovni izraz djeteta rane i predškolske dobi. Cilj istraživanja je utvrditi utjecaj glazbe na likovni izraz djece točnije hoće li karakter skladbe utjecati na izbor boja i na sadržaj crteža djece rane i predškolske dobi i hoće li moći prepoznati glavni motiv skladbe te ga onda i likovno prenijeti na papir. Djeca su slušala dvije skladbe različitog karaktera. U istraživanju su sudjelovale dvije vrtićke skupine- skupina 5-7 godina i skupina 3-5 godina. Sveukupno je sudjelovalo 34 djece, svako dijete se dva puta likovno izrazilo, a za analizu istraživanja odabrano je 24 najuspješnijih radova. Radovi su analizirani prema zadanim hipotezama i zadacima istraživanja. Nakon analize i obrade utvrđeno je da glazba ima utjecaj na odabir boje pri likovnom izrazu kod djece rane i predškolske dobi te da djeca rane i predškolske dobi uglavnom ne prepoznaju glavni motiv skladbe. Svrha ovog rada je prikazati moć i važnost glazbene i likovne umjetnosti u djetetovom životu te ukazati kako jedna umjetnost može utjecati na drugu umjetnost.Visual arts and music help people express their emotions, ideas. The two arts surround people wherever they may be. Both arts impact children's development and are components of every child's life. Even the fetus in its mother's womb hears music and the child has the need to create art from the earliest age. This Bachelor's thesis consists of a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part depicts the impact of music on the child's development and the development of the child's musical abilities. It then shows the impact of visual arts on the child's development, the child's artistic development and on the use of colours in the child's drawing. In the practical part a research has been conducted on the impact of music on the artistic expression of children of early and preschool age. The aim of the research was to ascertain a music impact on the children’s artistic expression. To be more precise, the aim was to determine whether the mood of the composition would impact the drawer’s choice of colours and the content of the drawings done by children of early and preschool age. Furthermore, the research aimed at determining whether they would be able to recognize the main motif of the composition and provide an artistic depiction of it on paper. The children listened to two compositions of opposing moods. Two groups of nursery children participated in the research: the age of 5-7 years group and the age of 3-5 years group. Altogether 34 children participated in the research, every child drew twice and 24 of the most successful works were chosen for the analysis of the research. The works were analysed according to standard hypotheses and the tasks of the research. After the analysis and the processing of the data it was ascertained that music affects the choice of colours of drawers of early and preschool age. It was also determined that the children of early and preschool age mostly do not recognize the composition’s main motif. The purpose of this thesis is to show the impact and the importance of visual arts and music in the child’s life, as well as to show how one art can affect the other
Play As An Incentive In Art Activities Of Preschool Children
No full textU ovom radu navedeni su primjeri različitih vrsta igara koje potiču razvoj dječje kreativnosti i
dječjeg izražavanja.
U prvom dijelu rada naglasak je stavljen na važnost talenta djeteta, kao i na djelovanje sredine
na dječji razvoj. Upravo motivacije koje odgojitelj pruža djetetu, potiču ga na daljnje
istraživanje i aktivnosti. Kao što je već naglašeno, djeca u svim razvojnim fazama istražuju
poticaje koje im odgojitelj ponudi, ovisno o dobi djeteta.
U drugom dijelu ovoga rada, navode se faze te prijelazna razdoblja koja utječu na razvoj djeteta
i njegov likovni razvoj. Mašta kod djece ne razvija se korištenjem motiva koji su svakidašnji,
već korištenjem motiva koji su nesvakidašnji, odnosno onih pomoću kojih dijete stvara svoj
likovni rad kroz spontanost i kreativnost. Isto tako, naglašava se važnost nevizualnih poticaja
koji potiču kreativnost te djetetovo izražavanje emocija. Na taj način, dijete razvija sposobnost
za pronalaženje jednostavnih i originalnih ideja pomoću kojih dolazi do stvaranja različitih
vrijednih ideja. Poznato je da veliku i važnu ulogu u dječjem razvoju ima odgojitelj. O njemu
ovisi hoće li dječja igra biti partnerska ili nadređena ne uzimajući u obzir problem koji se javlja
zbog odgojnog utjecaja.
Na kraju ovog završnog rada, navode se primjeri dječjih igara koje utječu na dječje likovno
stvaranje te izražavanje potičući ih na kreativnost i spontanost. Upravo navedene, kreativnost i
spontanost pomažu djeci da pozitivno reagiraju na različite prilagodbe i nove mogućnosti s
kojima će se susretati tijekom različitih životnih razdoblja.Through this review, examples of different types of games that encourage the development of
children's creativity and children's expression are given. It is important to emphasize that
children's development depends on the potential of the child and the functioning of the
environment. It is the motivations that the educator provides to the child that encourage him to
further research and activities. As already pointed out, children at all stages of development
explore the stimuli that the educator offers them, depending on the age of the child. In this
paper, the phases and transition periods that affect the child's development and his artistic
development are listed. Imagination in children does not develop by using motifs that are
everyday, but by using motifs that are unusual by which the child creates his art work through
spontaneity and creativity. It also emphasizes the importance of non-visual stimuli that
stimulate creativity and expression of emotions. In this way, the child develops the ability to
find simple and original ideas through which various valuable ideas are created. It is known
that a great and important role is played by the educator in children's development. It depends
on him whether the child's play is partner or superior, not taking into account the problem that
arises due to the educational impact. For the end of this review paper, great importance is placed
on the very examples of children's games that influence children's artistic creation and
expression by encouraging creativity and spontaneity. It is this creativity and spontaneity that
helps children to react positively to different adaptations and new opportunities that they will
encounter during different periods of life
Use of Puppet of Teaching English Language in Preschool
No full textNacionalnim okvirnim kurikulumom (2010.) određeni su ciljevi nastave engleskog jezika u vrtićkoj dobi, a to su: poticanje početnog učenja engleskog jezika, ljubav prema engleskom jeziku i njegovoj aktivnoj primjeni u svakodnevnim spontanim igrama i aktivnostima te upoznavanje elemenata kulture engleskog govornog područja. Lutka se u predškolskom obrazovanju najčešće koristi u dramatizaciji tekstova i igrokaza. Nerijetko, odgojitelji lutku koriste i kao posebnog gosta ili prijatelja koji djecu vrtićke dobi poučava svakodnevnim aktivnostima kao što je pranje zubi, osnovnim socijalnim vještinama kao što je pozdravljanje i mnogim drugim odgojnim aspektima. U ovom radu prikazana je temeljna podjela lutaka na ginjol lutke, lutke zijevalice, lutke sjena, javajke i marionete. Opisana je upotreba svih navedenih vrsta lutaka, a posebna pažnja dana je lutki zijevalici. U radu je opisan način izrade lutke gusjenice i leptira za potrebe nastavnog sata na engleskom jeziku “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”. Cilj sata bio je usvojiti nove riječi hrane i razvojnog ciklusa leptira na engleskom jeziku. Cilj ovoga rada je prikazati upotrebu lutke u nastavnom procesu učenja stranog jezika uključujući i evaluaciju djece vrtićke dobi koja su sudjelovala u aktivnosti.Teaching and learning aims of English language in early years are set in the national curriculum, those include developing english vocabulary, encouraging its active use in everyday activities and games, instigating love towards the language and its culture. In early years, puppets are usually used when reading with expressions and in plays. It is very likely that the adults use puppets as special guests or friends in the classroom. The role of the puppet is to familiarise children with everyday rituals and activities such as brushing their teeth, social skills such as greetings and other educational aspects. In this thesis puppets are divided into Gino puppets, hand puppets, shadow puppets, Jataka puppets and marionettes. The use of all the mentioned puppets is described with main stress on the use of hand puppets. Further more, the process of making hand puppet is described which was then used in class to teach “The Very Hungry Caterpillar”. The aim of teaching English language in early years is to develop positive attitudes towards learning the language and its use in everyday activities as well as learning about English culture. Also, another aim of this thesis is to show how a hand puppet can be used in teaching foreign language and to show nursery children's attitudes towards it
Kinesiological activities and leisure games for preschool children
No full textKao osoba koja je cijeli svoj život posvetila profesionalnom sportu i bavljenju raznim aktivnostima odlučila sam iskoristiti ovu temu kao adut u jačanju svijesti djece i mladih o važnosti kretanja, provedbi raznih aktivnosti i igre od najranije dobi.
Cilj ovog rada jest prikazati važnost kineziološke aktivnosti i igre u slobodno vrijeme djece predškolske dobi. Dakle, u ovom radu stavlja se naglasak na igru kao najvažniji djetetov posao putem kojeg dijete upija nova znanja i proširuje vlastite mogućnosti te kineziološku aktivnost kroz koju svaki pojedinac ispunjava svoju prirodnu potrebu za kretanjem. Slobodno vrijeme, osim igre i kinezioloških aktivnosti, ima važnu ulogu u svakodnevnom životu čovjeka te ne postoje oni koji bi slobodno vrijeme mogli samo tako zanemariti. Zbog užurbanosti suvremenog doba u kojem živimo upravo slobodno vrijeme jest vrijeme u kojem se možemo opustiti, kretati, baviti raznim aktivnostima i igrati.
Rad započinje samim objašnjenjem pojma „slobodno vrijeme“, zatim se naglašava važnost slobodnog vremena za djecu i mlade te se navode neke bitne koncepcije i aspekti istog. Nadalje, spominje se kineziološka aktivnost, važnost kineziološke aktivnosti u životu djece predškolske dobi, igra te primjeri raznih igara koje možemo iskoristiti u predškolskoj odgojno – obrazovnoj ustanovi. Kako bismo na pravilan način usmjerili djecu na bavljenje aktivnostima i izbjegavanje sjedilačkog načina života prijeko je potrebno na pravilan način uključiti okolinu, obitelj, odgojitelje i učitelje u djetetovu svakodnevicu. Upravo zato spominje se uloga odgojitelja i angažman vrtića u promicanju aktivnosti u slobodnom vremenu djece predškolske dobi.
Odgojitelji imaju važnu ulogu u životu svakog mladog čovjeka te upravo zbog toga djecu moraju poticati na razne igre i aktivnosti koje će im predstavljati zabavu i razonodu. Zadatak odraslih jest biti djeci oslonac kada je teško i podrška kada im treba jer čovječanstvo duguje djetetu sve najbolje što može dati (Deklaracija o pravima djeteta)Being a person who has dedicated all their life to professional sports and various physical
activities, I decided to use this topic as a trump card in raising children and young people’s
awareness of the importance of movement, and in the implementation of various activities and
play from an early age.
The purpose of this work is to demonstrate the importance of kinesiological activity and play during spare time in pre-school children. Thus, the paper emphasizes play as a child’s most
important duty, through which they absorb new knowledge and expand their own capabilitiesas well as kinesiological activity, through which each individual satisfies their natural need for
movement. In addition to play and kinesiological activities, leisure time plays an important role
in an individual’s everyday life, and there is no person who could simply neglect it. Due to the
phrenetic pace of daily life in modern times, precisely leisure is the time when we can relax,
move, engage in various activities and play.
Firstly, the paper explains the term “leisure time.” Then, it emphasizes the importance of spare time for children and young people and states some of its important concepts and aspects. Furthermore, it mentions kinesiological activity and its importance in lives of pre-school children, the importance of play and examples of different games that can be used in pre-school educational institutions. In order to properly direct children towards engaging in activities and to avoid sedentary lifestyle, it is crucial to properly involve the society, family members, pre-school educators and teachers in child’s daily life. For that reason, the role of pre-school educators and kindergarten’s engagement in the promotion of leisure activities of pre-school children are mentioned.
As a pre-school educator, I play a significant role in young people’s lives. Therefore, I have to encourage children to engage in various games and activities that serve as a source of fun
and entertainment. It is the responsibility of adults to support children during difficult times and provide help when needed because mankind owes to the child the best that it has to give(Declaration of the Rights of the Child)
The influence of fairy tales on children´s imagination and creativity
No full textU ovom teorijskom diplomskom radu govori se o povezanosti bajki i dječje mašte i kreativnosti. Polazi se od definiranja dječje književnosti i podjele na vrste. Bit će navedeno koje vrste dječje književnosti djeca vole u svakom razdoblju djetinjstva, a to je veoma važno znati kako bismo djeci mogli ponuditi književne tekstove koji odgovaraju njihovoj dobi i interesima. Nadalje, objašnjava se postanak pojma bajka, navode se značajke bajki te se govori o povezanosti bajki s djecom. Objašnjava se kako bajka utječe na dijete na pozitivan i negativan način. Brojni su autori navodili da je bajka štetna za dijete jer sadrži previše mašte i čudesnosti, mitologiju, likove i događaje kojih se djeca boje. Navodi se i da bi djeca čitajući bajke mogla previše maštati i početi vjerovati u čarolije i fantastične elemente. S druge strane, navodi se da bajka djeluje pozitivno na dječji razvoj i maštu te da djeca čudesne likove i pomalo okrutne postupke ne doživljavaju realno, pa samim time i nemaju negativan utjecaj na njih. Bajke čine vrijedno odgojno sredstvo za dijete jer predočavaju djetetu različite događaje i situacije koje ih mogu poučiti odabiru primjerenog ponašanja. Uz pomoć bajki djeca razvijaju maštu, a zahvaljujući maštanju razvijaju ugodne osjećaje. U poglavljima o kreativnosti navest će se definicije kreativnosti, pristupi kreativnosti te će se istaknuti važnost poticanja kreativnosti u nastavnom procesu i načini na koje je to moguće postići. Navodi se i kako uz pomoć bajke potaknuti aktivnosti koje imaju značajnu ulogu u stvaralačkom procesu. Naposlijetku se na primjeru bajke ukratko objašnjava kako bajka djeluje na poticanje mašte i kreativnosti.This theoretical thesis discusses the connection between fairy tales and children's imagination and creativity. It starts from defining children's literature and dividing it into types. It will be stated what types of children's literature children like in each period of childhood, and it is very important to know how we can offer children literary texts that suit their age and interests. Furthermore, the origin of the term fairy tale is explained, the characteristics of fairy tales are stated, and the connection between fairy tales and children is discussed. It is explained how a fairy tale affects a child in a positive and negative way. Numerous authors have stated that a fairy tale is harmful to a child because it contains too much imagination and wonders, mythology, characters and events that children are afraid of. It is also stated that reading fairy tales makes children fantasize too much and start believing in spells and fantastic elements. On the other hand, it is stated that the fairy tale has a positive effect on children's development and imagination and that children do not experience miraculous characters and somewhat cruel actions realistically, and therefore do not have a negative impact on them. Fairy tales are a valuable educational tool for a child because they present the child with various events and situations that can teach them to choose appropriate behavior. Fairy tales help children develop and improve their imagination and imagination develops pleasant feelings. The chapters on creativity will provide definitions of creativity, approaches to creativity and will emphasize the importance of encouraging creativity in the teaching process and the ways in which this can be achieved. It is also stated how fairy tale helps encourage activities that have a significant role in the creative process. Finally, the example of a fairy tale briefly explains how a fairy tale stimulates imagination and creativity
The Impact of Media Communication on Children During a Pandemic
No full textOvim radom prikazuje se utjecaj medijske komunikacije na djecu tijekom pandemije. Već dulje vrijeme odrasli, a i djeca sve više komuniciraju putem neke vrste uređaja. Početkom pandemije možemo primijetiti da se kontaktna komunikacija smanjila, što znači da djeca još više vremena provode ispred ekrana pa samim time se povećava i utjecaj medija na dijete što će provedeno istraživanje potvrditi.
Mediji s djecom komuniciraju putem raznih komunikacijskih kanala kao što su društvene mreže, televizija, dječji časopisi, reklame, mobiteli... Za potrebe ovog rada, detaljnije ćemo razraditi dva komunikacijska kanala koja današnja djeca najviše koriste, a to su: internet i ekran.
Svrha provedenog istraživanja bila je utvrditi jesu li mediji kroz svoju komunikaciju i ponuđeni medijski sadržaj utjecali na djecu tijekom pandemije COVID 19. Konkretnije, na koji način su informirali djecu i upoznali ih s aktualnim temama. Nadalje, kroz istraživanje se pokušalo utvrditi kako djeca informacije iz medija primjenjuju u situacijama izvan doma npr. stavljaju li ruke u usta u dućanu, diraju li stvari u dućanu, da li češće peru ruke... Istražili smo navedene pretpostavke kako bismo vidjeli da li je potvrđena polazna hipoteza koja glasi da mediji kroz svoju komunikaciju imaju snažan utjecaj na djecu, a posebno u doba pandemije kada djeca više koriste medije.The aim of this paper is to determine the influence of media communication on children during the pandemic. Adults have been communicating via gadgets for a while now, and the same habit is growing among children as well. In the beginning of the pandemic we could have noticed a large decrease in face to face communication, which resulted in children spending even more time in front of various screens. It is logical to assume that the influence of media on children will consequently grow, which will be confirmed through a conducted research. The media communicates with children via different communication channels such as social media, television, children magazines, commercials and ads, cell phones.... For the purposes of this paper, we will elaborate in more detail two of the most common communication channels used by children today - the internet and the screen. The purpose of the conducted research for this paper was to determine whether the media has affected the children during the pandemic of COVID 19 through their communication and the media content offered, or, to be more precise, in what way were the children informed and introduced to current topics. Furthermore, the goal of the research was also to determine in which ways do children use the information obtained from the media in situations outside of their homes, for example if they put their hands in their mouth when in stores, do they touch the items in stores, do they wash their hands more often...We explored the above mentioned assumptions to determine and confirm the initial hypothesis which is that the media through their communication has a strong influence on children, especially during the pandemic when children use more media than they usually would
Musical activities with preschool children in a virtual environment
No full textZbog obustave rada odgojno – obrazovnog sustava te većine drugih djelatnosti za vrijeme pandemije virusa COVID – 19, odgojitelji su sve aktivnosti s djecom, pa tako i glazbene, provodili na daljinu. Provođene su uobičajene glazbene aktivnosti upoznavanja i usvajanja pjesme i brojalice te slušanja glazbe. U radu je uz navedene glazbene aktivnosti prikazan i način provođenja glazbenih aktivnosti primjenom suvremene tehnologije. Kao primjer takvog način rada istaknute su tzv. on - line didaktičke igrice koje su pogodne za rad s djecom na daljinu te djeci omogućuju usvajanje različitih glazbenih sadržaja na njima bliski način.
Ispitana su mišljenja odgojitelja iz predškolskih ustanova na području Sjeverozapadne Hrvatske o mogućnostima i načinima te oblicima provođenja glazbenih aktivnosti na daljinu kao i samoprocjena njihovih glazbenih kompetencija te rada na daljinu.
Dobiveni rezultati istraživanja ukazuju da se većina odgojitelja ne osjeća dovoljno kompetentnima za provođenje glazbenih aktivnosti u vrtiću te provođenje odgojno – obrazovnog rada na daljinu. Odgojitelji koji su provodili glazbene aktivnosti na daljinu, najviše su koristili web stranicu vrtića te različite platforme putem kojih su slali prijedloge aktivnosti roditeljima. Uz E – mail, kao komunikacijski kanal, najviše je korišten WhatsApp putem kojeg su odgojitelji jedanput tjedno slali prijedloge aktivnosti roditeljima od kojih su dobivali povratne informacije.
Zaključeno je da je potrebno dodatno educirati i upoznati odgojitelje s takvim načinom rada te isto tako uspostaviti adekvatnu suradnju i komunikaciju s roditeljima kako bi se takve aktivnosti mogle realizirati u praksi.Due to the suspension of the educational system and most other activities during the COVID - 19 virus pandemic, educators carried out all activities with children, including music, at a distance.

In addition to the listed musical activities, the paper also presents the method of conducting musical activitie es using modern technology. As an example of such a way of working, the so-called online didactic games that are suitable for working with children at a distance and allow children to adopt various musical content in a way close to them.
The opinions of educators from preschool institutions in the area of Northwestern Croatia on the possibilities and ways and forms of conducting musical activities at a distance as well as self-assessment of their musical competencies and distance work were examined.
The obtained research results indicate that most educators do not feel competent enough to carry out musical activities in kindergarten and to conduct educational work at a distance. Educators who conducted distance music activities mostly used the kindergarten's website and various platforms through which they sent suggestions for activities to parents. In addition to E-mail, as a communication channel, Viber was mostly used, through which educators once a week sent suggestions for activities to parents from whom they received feedback.
It was concluded that it is necessary to further educate and acquaint educators with such a way of working, as well as to establish adequate cooperation and communication with parents so that such activities can be realized in practice
