Development of graphomotor skills in preschool children through musical activities
ŽOFKOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor thesis deals with the development of graphomotor skills from simpler to more complex graphomotor elements. The aim of my bachelor thesis is to create a program for preschool children supporting the development of graphomotor skills through musical activities. The thesis comprises both theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical section focuses on clarifying key concepts related to preschool education. It mentions psychomotor development, which discusses the abilities and skills of children in the preschool period. Another chapter addresses graphomotor development, describing individual graphomotor elements. Further chapters are devoted to musical activities and their classification, the development of children's drawing, and the role of play and fairy tales in the preschool period. In the practical part, the created program will be tested. Units of the program, motivated by specific graphomotor elements, will be described here, and their functionality will then be verified in two age-differentiated classes. The units will subsequently be evaluated using observation and interview methods. In the conclusion of the thesis, the idea of whether movement combined with music has a positive impact on the development of a child's graphomotor skills is reflected upon.

ANDĚLOVÁ, Klára
The bachelor thesis consists of two parts, a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part is divided into four chapters and eight subchapters. The first chapter deals with the basic definition of hearing impairment, classification of hearing impairment, description of the specific development of a child with hearing impairment and his/her communication with the environment, as well as information about compensatory aids for children with hearing impairment. The second chapter focuses on the topic of the family, its specificities in both education and communication, as well as the types of institutional support offered to families with a child with a hearing impairment. The practical part deals with institutional support for families with children with hearing impairment from the parents' perspective. The actual research investigation was carried out using a quantitative method, through a questionnaire supplemented with open-ended questions, and the findings and their subsequent evaluation are summarised in the conclusion of the thesis. In the quantitative investigation, it was found that the biggest problem is the lack of awareness of hearing impairment in society, as well as the insufficient education of doctors in this field. The results of the bachelor thesis will serve to give an idea whether the support for families of children with hearing impairment is sufficient and what could be improved in the opinion of parents.
