Šumpíková, Magdaléna ; Kmentová, Milena (advisor) ; Hons, Marie (referee)
The bachelor's thesis deals with the development of rhythmic sense in preschool children in an age-heterogeneous group. A field study was carried out in a nursery school to investigate the development of rhythmic sense in individual children over a period of three months. The thesis is divided into two main parts: theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part, the thesis focuses on musical rhythm and its components, the sense of rhythm and how to develop rhythmic sense, and the issue of rhythmic sense diagnosis. The practical part describes the characteristics of the researched group, the course and results of the field research framed by the individual diagnosis of rhythmic sense of children in kindergarten. The aim of the research is to verify the validity of the existing test of rhythmic sense according to Miloš Kodejšeka with a new musical component (songs) in children aged 3-5, for whom the existing test has not been used before. This test proved to be almost functional in the research, except for one item and part of the non-continuous scoring scale. During the research period, the rhythmic sense shown by the pre- and post-test improved in almost all children.
