FEIKOVÁ, Eliška
This bachelor thesis is focused on the language development of a preschool child. The theoretical part deals with the development of speech, individual language levels, preschool children, and their education. It marginally mentions the topic of reading pre-literacy and literacy, which a child must develop at a preschool age, so it can build on the acquired skills later in the basic education of acquisition of initial reading and writing. The practical part includes a qualitative survey, which uses a diagnostic battery to determine the language level of children before the start of compulsory schooling. Subsequently, a program to support language and reading pre-literacy is implemented with ten respondents. The results show that if the language area not only develops naturally but also purposefully, the results in the child's speech improve. Children learn their language skills better and use the grammar of the particular language correctly.
