Movement and integrated learning: preschool teachers’ competence

The research aim was to determine the preschool teachers’ competence for the implementation of movement in children’s integrated learning and everyday activities during their stay in early education institutions. As many as 100 preschool teachers from various early education institutions of the City of Rijeka and its surrounding participated in the research. The questionnaire consists of 16 items. The basic statistical parameters were calculated, and the Spearman correlation coefficient, the Mann–Whitney U and the Kruskal Wallis test were used. Results show that preschool teachers with more in-service years have a significantly (p = 0.00) better opinion of the benefits brought by movement and more need for professional training. The preschool teachers who participated in educations linked to movement feel significantly (p = 0.00) more competent for its integration in their educational work. The need to integrate movement has become the imperative of contemporary education.
