DEVELOPING COMMUNICATION THROUGH EDUCATIONAL GAMES WITH PRESCHOOLERS

Verbal or nonverbal communication is one of the most important factors of socialization. Therefore teachers should place great emphasis on its development from the earliest age.

Taking into account that playing is the main activity in kindergarden, most of our teaching activities should be linked with playing, with interesting games which are meant to raise the children’s interest in what teacher has to say or wants to do in class.

Game-based activities are common in teaching communication and language developing. Children learn easier, remember newly-taught words and use them spontaneously and creatively, also try to communicate more fluently and clearly. These games develop their imagination and creativity.

Parallel results are presented and the control group, results that demonstrate the effectiveness of the program designed and implemented by us.
