The Effectiveness Of A Program Based On Cooperative Learning Strategy To Development Some Of Mathematical Concepts In Kindergarten. {A Semi Experimental Research On Kindergarten(5-6)Years In TARTOUS}

Abstract

The aim of the research is to measure the effectiveness of cooperative learning strategy to development of some of mathematical concepts in kindergarten compared to the usual way, To achieve this aim of the research a program based on the cooperative learning strategy was designed.  In order to measure the effectiveness of cooperative learning strategy, (15)paragraph visual test mathematical concepts was prepared by the researcher. The study sample consisted of two groups, one experimental (learned by the cooperative learning strategy) and the other one (learned by the usual method) each group included (15) child and a girl.  Following the completion of the experiment and the collection of data on pre-post-test, the results were analyzed and analyzed statistically, and showed the following: A statistically significant difference between the mean scores of the children of the experimental and control groups in the test of mathematical concepts in favor of the experimental group and the post application.                                       

The research suggested work on the learning strategy as an educational- cooperative learning strategy in kindergartens in order to provide the child with many different skills, experiences and concepts, especially mathematical concept.
