An example of developing mathematical pre-literacy in the context of using the Bee-bot digital tool

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

We encounter mathematics and mathematical concepts in our everyday lives. We need to count money, find out what time our bus leaves, weigh groceries. The foundation for later mathematical skills lies in the good development of pre-mathematical ideas in a child’s preschool years. just in this period we can lay a good foundation for their logical thinking and reasoning.In the article, we will be based on the results of the study entitled “Mathematics and Reading Preschool Literacy (MRPL1)”, in which 119 teachers from 72 kindergartens from different parts of the Czech Republic participated. The focus will be mainly on the use of modern robotic tools based on the trend of incorporating digital technologies into preschool education. (Uhlířová, END, 2022)It is encouraging that the teachers have shown interest in the new ideas. Activities related to Bee Bot interested them. Only a small portion of kindergarten teachers currently has bee bots at their disposal. Popularisation of the Bee-Bot and it’s usage would help get it in more kindergardens. Overall, however, they lack sufficient methodological support.Based on MRPL1 research findings, a pedagogical experiment was realised. A set of 5 educational preschool level activities was compiled with a focus on mathematical ideas development through work with Bee-Bot. Individual activities were graded 1-3 in levels of difficulty depending on age. All activities were verified in kindergarten pedagogical practice. Participant observation method was used. Children aged 3-7 took part in the experiment.We have coma to the conclusion, that the targeted inclusion of Bee-bot and other robotic toys in preschool education makes sense not only in scope of mathematical preliteracy development, but also aids other components of their cognitive development.
