Difficulties in educating Ukrainian pupils in elementary school in the Czech republic
Kotas, Tereza ; Bartoňová, Miroslava (advisor) ; Hádková, Kateřina (referee)
The diploma thesis, which is presented here, is called Obstacles in the Education of Ukrainian Pupils in the 1st level in the Czech Elementary Schools. This work has a special pedagogical character as students with a different mother tongue fall into the category of students with special educational needs. The thesis generally aims to analyze and define the current possibilities of education of Ukrainian refugee pupils as pupils with a different mother tongue in the 1st grade of primary school from the point of view of pedagogues of the given two regions - Prague region and the Moravian-Silesian region, including the Ukrainian pupil and his/her legal representative. The theoretical part of the thesis defines the legislative framework of migration and the possibilities of education for pupils with a different mother tongue, including Ukrainian pupils. Furthermore, it brings closer the concept of the educational subject of mathematics in the 1st level of elementary school and the acquisition of the mathematics curriculum by the non- traditional Hejné method. The empirical part of the diploma thesis describes a separate research in which, by means of a mixed research investigation, the current possibilities of education of Ukrainian pupils in the 1st grade of elementary school are analyzed, including...

Activities deepening mathematical pre-literacy of children in kindergarten
LIŠKOVÁ, Lenka
The aim of this thesis was to create a set of activities to deepen mathematical pre-literacy of children in kindergarten. The theoretical part summarizes the knowledge about preschool children, which have an influence on mathematical pre-literacy, especially the way of thinking and perception. Furthermore, the concept of mathematical pre-literacy is defined and its understanding in the Framework Education Program is mapped. The areas of mathematical pre-literacy and cognitive processes related to it are described. The traditional approach (according to Kaslova) is also compared with the ideas brought by the Hejny method. In the practical part is used mixed research. The first phase is a questionnaire survey, which is quantitatively evaluated. Its aim was to find out how a selected group of kindergarten teachers perceive mathematical pre literacy. On this basis, a set of activities was created on three different topics. It was tested by selected teachers who reflected their experience in writing. Reflections were qualitatively evaluated.

Critical places in primary school mathematics taught by Hejný's method
Landíková, Kristýna ; Jirotková, Darina (advisor) ; Slezáková, Jana (referee)
The thesis on "Critical places at the first stage of primary school in the teaching of mathematics by the Hejný method" focuses on the problematic places of the Hejný method, which make it difficult for teachers and especially their pupils at the first stage of primary schools. In the theoretical part of the thesis, the constructivist and transient educational style teaching of mathematics using the Hejný method are characterized. The critical points in mathematics identified in the project of the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic are also introduced and conceived into a unified structure. The theoretical part also includes an analysis of pupil solutions to mathematical tasks from the 2015 TIMSS international survey. The empirical part deals with the experience and view of primary school teachers in teaching mathematics by the Hejný method. The first research survey finds from future primary school teachers their experience and opinions on this method. The second research survey focuses on the identification of problematic places and roles in the teaching of mathematics by the Hejný method from the point of view of teachers who teach mathematics using the Hejný method at the first stage of primary schools. The questionnaire survey was carried out using the questionnaire method, which identifies...

Introduction to variables in the teaching of teachers using the method of building schemes in mathematics
Smutná, Anežka ; Vondrová, Naďa (advisor) ; Kvasz, Ladislav (referee)
This thesis deals with an introduction to variables. The aim of the thesis was to compare different approaches to teaching the introduction to variables in teachers who teach a method based on building schemes (known as Hejny method). The theoretical part of the thesis is a search of literature on the topic of introduction to variables and the theoretical background of teaching methods based on building schemes. Further, the thesis analyses textbooks designed for this method with a focus on tasks important for the propaedeutics of the variables. The research itself consisted of interviews with four teachers and observations of the lessons they taught in the 7th and 8th grades of secondary school, the topic of which was an introduction to the "language of letters". In total, there were fifteen lessons taught by these teachers in six classes (2-3 lessons in each class). Data were analyzed by qualitative methods. Although the observed teachers taught using the same method, I identified differences in the approach to the introduction of the variables and in the style of their teaching. There were differences in the organization of the lesson, in the selection of tasks and their style of assignments to pupils, teaching methods and ways in which teachers communicate with pupils. At the moment of entering the...

Understanding the part to whole relationship within primary school pupils of the sixth to ninth grade
Sojková, Tereza ; Novotná, Jarmila (advisor) ; Vondrová, Naďa (referee)
This master thesis deals with middle school pupils and their comprehension of Part-whole theory within the area of Mathematics. The theory section is divided into five parts. The first part presents sets of knowledge and skills of lower-secondary school pupils that are essential for completing a particular time period in selected thematic areas of mathematics at primary schools. In the second part, individual stages and mechanisms of cognitive processes needed in Mathematics are determined, and the third part focuses on teaching methods of Mathematics. Among the issues mentioned in this part are for example the difference between formal and informal knowledge or transmissive and constructivist way of teaching. Lastly, the fourth and fifth parts specify various expressions of wholes and their parts. The research part of this paper provides an analysis of interviews with certain teachers that are employing different teaching methods, testing applied on their pupils and also an analysis of the textbooks that are being used by these teachers. The other part of the thesis is the evaluation of the interviews with the selected teachers, what gives us the information about the relationship of the teachers to particular didactic approaches, and the evaluation of the tests taken by pupils including standard...
