RESCUR i Kindergarten

The application of Resilience curriculum in kindergarten will be presented, using data from Croatian kindergartens. Several topics will be covered: 1. Antonija Balić Šimrak The Expressive and the Illustrative in the Illustrations of the Storybook How to Say No This work presents the process of creating illustrations for the storybook How to Say No with the intention to show how important it is to use expressive and illustrative techniques in working with very young as well as with preschool children through art activities that deal with raising emotional awareness. By combining painting and drawing skills in the presentation of emotions we get two dimensions of emotional communication through a work of art. One dimension relates to the spontaneous expression through colours (painting) where we pay attention to the symbolism of colours, whereas the second dimension(drawing) precisely and illustratively describes thoughts. By presenting the process and the results of such artistic activities which have been carried out in kindergartens in groups of children of various ages we will try to determine methods which ensure the most qualitative approach to preventive activities of recognizing and expressing emotions. 2. University and kindergarten representatives From theory to practice - Implementation of Resilience curriculum in kindergarten: comparison between control and experimental groups How successful has been the implementation of the curriculum? We plan the scientific research in Croatian kindergartens. Before we start the implementation, we shall test the resilience of children in experimental groups as well as in control groups (which will not start with the curriculum yet) and see if there is any difference in children resilience after a year of implementation. Preliminary results will be presented at the Conference. 3. University and kindergarten representatives Correlation between child's and parent's resilience What do kindergarten teachers say about the cooperation with parents during the implementation of the Resilience curriculum? Which parents are more cooperative - resilient or less resilient? Is there a correlation between child's and parent's resilience? Data collected in Croatian kindergarten will be presented.
