The aim of this thesis is worksheets creation that can support the mathematics education at the primary school. These documents are focused on the thematic complex of function. Worksheets should find the use of mathematics education at primary school {--} at separate education and especially at subsequent practise. Necessary tool to their application is mathematical program Derive, in which all worksheets are created. Endeavour of this work is achieving higher effectiveness of mathematics education and its approach to the pupils of primary school.

The topic of the thesis is The Geomorphology Teaching at Primary Schools. To be specific, the thesis occupies with the creation of the alternative teaching material for teaching Geomorphology at primary schools with its utilisation in Geography lessons, Geography seminars, hobby groups and as some inspiration and source of information for teachers as well. The thesis results from the Framework Education Programme for Primary Education, respectively from the educational field ,,Human and Nature``, from topical areas ,,Natural picture of the Earth", ,,Environment`` and ,,The Cross-Country Geographical Education, Praxis and Application``. The teaching material is divided into a text part, worksheets and worksheets key. Another part of the thesis is also the analysis and evaluation of Geography textbooks designed for Primary Schools according to defined conditions. The evaluated condition is the quality of elaboration of Geomorphology contents and the structure of the textbooks.

This study investigated the developmental influence of collaborative games in the Grade 6 mathematics classroom. Development in areas such as awareness of mathematics, confidence, competence, curiosity, love for mathematics, appreciation of mathematics, creativity, recognition of mathematics, understanding, and knowledge and skills was investigated. The following three data collection methods were used: intervention, observations, and interviews. For the intervention, a quasi-experimental design was used to assign two out of four classes to an experimental group, and the other two to a comparison group. Fifty-one Grade 6 learners participated in the intervention, which covered the following four mathematics topics: multiplication, nets of 3D-objects, symmetry, and division. Each topic included a pre-test and post-test, with learners being observed during the completion of the post-tests. For the posttests, the comparison group completed the textbook activities individually as they usually would. The experimental group completed the same activities, but in a gamebased worksheet format while collaborating in heterogeneous pairs. The results revealed that the experimental group increased 4.28% more from the pretests to the post-tests than the comparison group. This implies that there was a developmental difference, which can be ascribed to the implementation of collaborative game-based worksheets. The Game Object Model, which was the framework used in this study, provided essential information regarding designing educational games that are conducive to learners’ mathematical development. The experimental group increased the most in multiplication and division, which required skills in routine procedures. Low-achieving learners benefited the most from collaborating in heterogeneous pairs in their achievement in mathematics. The experimental group showed a high level of collaboration as they helped each other frequently. A need for support was noted in the comparison group when they asked for assistance from the teacher or a group leader according to the classroom seating arrangements, even though they were instructed to complete the activity individually. Although collaborative games have positively influenced learners’ development in mathematics, observations also show that the teacher plays an important role in learners’ development in mathematics with regard to focus, motivation, and stirring up a love for mathematics in the learners. / Dissertation (MEd)--University of Pretoria, 2017. / Science, Mathematics and Technology Education / MEd / Unrestricted

This diploma thesis is dealing with the theme of use of the Botanic Garden in Teplice to teach Science - especially Botany at lower-secondary school. The thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part I'm dealing with mapping of botanic gardens in the Czech republic - mainly focusing on the Botanic Garden in Teplice. In the second part I'm searching for theoretic information to create my own worksheets, and explanation of the teaching method - excursion according to the available specialized didactic literature. In the third part I'm dealing with the analysis of questionnaire and according to the availably gained information with the creation of my own worksheets. After the questionnaire there were nine worksheets with the concrete teaching methodology of botany and methodological worksheets. Afterwards the worksheet called ¨Excursion itself¨ was verified. Altogether nine worksheets with the methodological outcomes were created. The pupils were filling in the worksheets during the excursion and then the pupils' questionnaire was made to gain the feedback. KEYWORDS botanic garden, worksheets, excursion, questionnaire, methodological worksheets, pupils' questionnaire

The thesis is focused on use of the geological science park as a mean of acquiring and developing knowledge in the field of geoscience disciplines in the teaching of natural science, biology and geography at primary schools and secondary grammar schools. This thesis consists of a general retrieval of teaching geoscientific disciplines at basic schools and secondary grammar schools based on the national curriculum standarts including description of actual situation in a selected school where my teaching praxis took place. Worksheets for pupils and methodical materials for teachers will be created as means to support teaching in the geological park. Finally, the potential of the created materials will be evaluated from the attractiveness and better remembering of knowledge in geoscience disciplines point of view. Key words: geological park, worksheets, teaching geology

The main aim of the thesis was to create functional and practical worksheets that would be used on excursions by secondary school students to the Botanical Garden Teplice. Based on a study of secondary school textbooks, questions were created that repeated subject matter taught at the school, but also expanded it. The questions were incorporated into three types of worksheets dealing with phytogeography, outdoor exhibits and greenhouse exhibits. Guides were created for each type of worksheet to help the person accompanying students, who can be both an employee of the Botanical Garden or a teacher. The test versions of the worksheets were tried out on 131 students from four secondary schools during field trips. The results obtained by completing the worksheets were analysed to identify the shortcomings of questions. This and substantive comments by the supervisor led to an amendment of the questions that required it, resulting in the final version of the worksheets to be used for educational activities at the Botanical Garden Teplice. Keywords Worksheets, phytogeography, Botanical Garden Teplice, guide.

The diploma thesis deals with the orthography problems and the use of Czech language overview worksheets for the 5th grade of primary school. The thesis is divided into three parts. The theoretical part contains the definition of the subject matter in RVP ZV, the definition of orthography, its meaning, spelling functions and principles, types of spelling exercises, their classification and correction. A discussion of new changes and approaches in contemporary orthography is also in the theoretical part. The research part of the thesis contains a pilot verification of the Czech language overview worksheets and asks several questions. The aim was to find out the pupils' attitude to orthography, to reveal their most common spelling mistakes and to verify whether there was an improvement in the spelling while pupils were using the Czech language overview worksheets for the 5th grade of primary school. The practical part of the thesis contains created overview sheets for the 5th grade of elementary school.

I chose the topic for my diploma thesis " The Excursion for the Elementary School Pupils along the Riverside of the Vrchlice River Aiming at Woody Plants". I took that topic intentionally just for several reasons. I wanted to bring a scenic valley of the Vrchlice river to pupilsˇ attention, to make the identification of woody plants more attractive in the natural scientific excursion, and to consolidate pupils' relation to nature and neighbouring environment. The first theoretical part deals with the general description of this valley and at the same time with the characteristic of animals and plants. Selected sorts of woody plants are described in the most detailed way as they became initial ones for working out worksheets and for the natural scientific excursion. The next part of the diploma thesis concerns inquiry research the goal of which was to find out the interest of teachers from nearby basic schools in worksheets dealing with the woody plants issues of the river Vrchlice. Worksheets dealing with selected wooden plants were elaborated on the basis of the research assessment. Those worksheets were verifield in the follow-up excursion. The closing part evaluates whether all the set targets were accomplished. Keywords Woody plants, educational excursion, worksheets, plants, pupils

The aim of the theoretical part of this diploma thesis is to clarify the issue of creating worksheets as didactical aids in the intermediate form of teaching. The aim is also to partially introduce the history of book printing and the life and work of Michael Jindrich Rentz. The work is also devoted to the Rentz Museum itself as an inspirational resource for creating worksheets and teaching art education. The practical part of the diploma thesis tries to create functional and representative worksheets for pupils of middle and upper school age to the Rentz Museum of Baroque Printing at Kuksu. This part of the thesis contains the definition of worksheet objectives, pupils age specification, analysis of individual tasks, description of the format and appearance of worksheets. At the end of the thesis, reflection and evaluation of the resulting sheets will be made.

The master's dissertation aims to examine the amount of attention given to phrasemes within the selected textbooks intended for the second stage of primary schools. Subsequently, it introduces its own worksheet dedicated to such problematics.
