This diploma thesis deals with the ability of children of younger school age to orient themselves in the landscape. Its goal is to create specific proposals for working with children of younger school age, which systematically develop the children's necessary skills based on researched starting points. Therefore, the work first focuses on the theoretical starting points of geography didactics. These are then followed by topics for activities with children. Here is a summary of the way of working, which we have conceived as suitable for the development of orientation and map skills. We also focus on spatial orientation within the valid Czech curriculum and analysis of textbooks that are used for teaching national history topics in the 1st grade of primary schools. The following is a summary of the psychological starting points for teaching orientation to children of younger school age, because this period is specific in the perception of the surrounding world and it is important to appropriately follow up on these specifics. On the basis of theoretical starting points, specific topics are created for working with children, especially at the age of children in the 3rd - 5th grade of elementary school.

Kakešová, Kristýna ; Janštová, Vanda (advisor) ; Chlebounová, Irena (referee)
This bachelor's theses is dedicated to fieldwork in Biology at secondary school in the Czech Republic. It is dedicated to the topic of school gardens. The first part is presenting the advantages of fieldwork and also its obstacles, which could make the implementation of fieldwork harder. One of these concerns is the emplacement of Biology fieldwork in the curriculum for different educational levels (lower and upper secondary schools), where this method is not often explicitly included. The second part is dedicated to the school gardens in the Czech Republic, it summarizes results of studies exploring gardens' conditions, facilities, and usage. Results show that most of the lower secondary schools have their garden and they also use it for teaching, mostly practical subjects as gardening or cultivating work. In the case of upper secondary schools, there is a lack of comprehensive studies. Other foci of the thesis are: a history of school gardens in Czechia; organizations involved in Biology and Science education in school gardens, and selected teaching methods appropriate for teaching Biology in school gardens.
