Popis | This is the third in a series of four working seminars. The aim of the seminar is to show some examples of evolution of geometrical knowledge in the environment of art. In other words, we want to show ways of supporting early geometrical thinking and understanding based on particular artworks. The geometry often plays only limited role in early mathematical education. However, geometry is an integral part of the development of the mathematical component of education in young children. The ability to recognize shapes is substantial part of early geometrical knowledge, and deep teacher’s insight into geometry is essential for the efficiency of their teaching. Two activities will be discussed. Participants will be involved in problem solving and subsequent analysis. They will be also asked to analyze some videos The first activity will be based on the reproduction of a painting by manipulation of cardboard shapes.It involves the concept of space, the analysis of geometrical figures and their mutual positions and especially the geometrical transformations. The second activity will deal with transparent coloured shapes, and it will show how new shapes could be created by superimposing two transparencies with different colors. |
