BROŽOVÁ, Pavla
The theme of the bachelor's paper is ``Methods of development of fine and gross motor skills of visually impaired children{\crqq}. The theoretical part is aimed at clarification of the terms ``vision{\crqq}, ``development of visual perception{\crqq}, and also ``visually impaired child{\crqq}. I have further introduced there the terms ``gross and fine motor skills{\crqq}, which I defined in relation to children with visual impairment in pre-school age. The practical part of the paper is dedicated to the description of the objective of the work, research methods, and the results obtained. The objective of the research was to establish the level of development of fine and gross motor skills of visually impaired children in pre-school age, as well as of children in an ordinary nursery school. The following step was comparison of the results from both nursery schools. My hypothesis was stated as follows: ``The level of development of fine and gross motor skills of children in an ordinary nursery school is better than that of children in a nursery school for visually impaired{\crqq}. For performance of the research part of the work, I have chosen quantitative type of research, the method of controlled observation. The research took place in two nursery schools in České Budějovice. One of them was a nursery school for visually impaired children; the other was an ordinary nursery school. The total number of controlled observations performed was 200. The research set constituted of 50 children in pre-school age. The research results have shown that the development of motor skills of visually impaired children is at higher level than that of children in an ordinary nursery school. In the area of fine motor skills, significant differences between the two nursery schools have surfaced after comparison of the results. The differences in the area of gross motor skills were less marked. Consequently, my hypothesis did not prove true. The bachelor's paper in question can be used as a study material for the students of the Faculty of Health and Social Studies, as there is no publication comprehensively elaborating those issues.

RODOVÁ, Marcela
The work deals with preschool age and the M. Montessori view of the education. The aim is to point out the contributio24n of montessori materials and their use in nursery schools. The theoretic part describes the historic evolution of preschool education, psychological and sociological development of a child of preschool age, game and alternative programmes. I focused mainly on the M. Montessori pedagogy and described it theoretically. The practical part contains comparison of three chosen schools: NS Vokovická Praha 6, Montessori class in NS Meteorologická Praha and Montessori class in Tábor. In all these schools the montessori pedagogy principals are being applied. In these schools they work, not only, with original montessori materials, but also with other materials, which fulfill certain standards and also with some that were made by teachers themselves. In NS Vokovická toys are also being used. Despite some differences all of the schools agree on the basic thought: they put the child in the first position just like M. Montessori used to do.
