Actividades lúdicas para el desarrollo lógico - matemático en niños de preparatoria. Guía didáctica

Abstract

The purpose of the methodological proposal is to promote learning and teaching in the area of logical mathematical development in children aged 5 and 6 in high school, using recreational activities as a pedagogical instrument to strengthen the skills in said area. The proposal was born in the context of pre-professional practices carried out in private child development centers and the Municipality of the city of Quito. During that time, it was observed that the teachers did not work in a playful way and resorted to using worksheets. The teachers were also focused on completing worksheets or filling out books, rather than on the content and skills that the children had to learn. Furthermore, the teachers remained traditional where children only identified the contents of the area of logical mathematical development and did not help them compare or transform these contents. This caused confusion in the infants and non-significant learning. Seeking to provide a solution to this problem, a methodological guide was developed, which has the purpose of helping teachers to have a clearer vision about how their classes can be taught through recreational activities, so that children have meaningful learning and that /the teachers are focused on the children's true learning
