20.500.12556/DKUM-98561 Projektno delo v vrtcu: spoznavanje zelišč - od rastline do skodelice čaja diplomsko delo Project work in early childhood education: discovering herbs - from plant to cup of tea Zelišča uporabljamo dnevno, največ v obliki čajev. Kadar smo prehlajeni, nemirni, nam velikokrat pomaga že skodelica čaja. Otrokom smo želeli približati svet zelišč na njihov način, torej preko igre, opazovanja in eksperimentiranja. Želeli smo jim pokazati, da zelišča rastejo vsepovsod – na travniku, vrtu in ob poteh. Diplomsko delo izhaja iz izvedenega projekta v vrtčevski skupini z otroki, starimi 3–4 leta. V teoretičnem delu je poudarek na tem, da je naravno okolje zelo pomembno za otroke, saj spodbuja radovednost in samostojnost. Glavno pa je, da je pri vsem tem vzgojitelj vzor otrokom in da jih usmerja pri raziskovanju naravnega okolja. V projektu smo otrokom preko naravoslovnih dejavnosti, ki so se prepletale tudi z drugimi področji kurikula, obogatili znanje o zeliščih in njihovi uporabi v čajnih napitkih. Za ugotavljanje napredka pri končni evalvaciji smo otroke intervjuvali pred začetkom projekta in po končanem projektu, ki je trajal 14 dni. Z rezultati smo dokazali, da je bila izvedba projekta uspešna, saj sta se njihovo znanje in zanimanje o zeliščih in njihovi uporabi precej povečala. Največji napredek se je pokazal v razumevanju postopka priprave zeliščnega čaja, saj so otroci po koncu projekta znali opisati več korakov priprave in jih povezati v celoto. Poleg priprave čaja in spoznavanja zelišč so otroci razvijali tudi spoštljiv odnos do narave. We use herbs every day, mostly in the form of tea. When we have a cold or feel restless, a simple cup of tea is often enough to help. We wanted to introduce children to the world of herbs in a way that suited them—through play, observation and experimentation. We wanted to show them that herbs grow everywhere—in meadows, gardens and along footpaths. This thesis is based on a project carried out with a group of preschool children aged 3 to 4. The theoretical part emphasises that the natural environment is very important for children, as it encourages curiosity and independence. The most important thing, however, is that the teacher sets an example for the children and guides them as they explore the natural environment. Through a series of nature-related activities that were integrated with other areas of the curriculum, the project helped children expand their knowledge of herbs and their use in herbal teas. To assess progress in the final evaluation, we interviewed the children before the 14-day project began and after it ended. The results show that the project was a success, as the participants’ knowledge of and interest in herbs and their uses have increased significantly. The greatest progress was seen in the children’s understanding of the process of making herbal tea, as by the end of the project, they were able to describe several steps involved in the preparation and connect them into a whole. In addition to making tea and learning about herbs, the children also learned to respect nature. zelišča projekt predšolski otroci čaji herbs project preschool children tea true true false T.
