The diploma thesis focused on the issue of coping with separation from the family. Specifically, it focused on so-called homesickness in children of younger school age when participating in a several-day stay at school in nature. The aim of the work was to map the risk factors contributing to a worse experience of separation child from the family and to compile basic recommendations for teachers on what measures they should take together with the family to make it as easy as possible for the child to stay outside the family. Based on a study of the literature and research reports, a questionnaire for parents was first prepared and then submitted, which could help teachers find children at risk, but also draw attention to parents' risky behavior, which could exacerbate difficulties in coping. Records of risk factors were compared with records of children's experience and behavior during school stays in nature. These were obtained through a pupil questionnaire survey and a structured questionnaire for accompanying teachers. The diploma thesis managed to determine the positive activities that parents should choose before the child leaves for school in nature. The results of the research confirmed a significant connection between longing and the factor of previous experience with staying away from...

Objektas: jaunesnio mokyklinio amžiaus vaikų hiperaktyvumo ir fizinio pajėgumo sąsajos. Tikslas: Įvertinti jaunesnio mokyklinio amžiaus vaikų hiperaktyvumo ir fizinio pajėgumo sąsajas. Uždaviniai: 1. Įvertinti jaunesnio mokyklinio amžiaus vaikų (11-12 metų) hiperaktyvumo simptomus. 2. Įvertinti jaunesnio mokyklinio amžiaus vaikų (11-12 metų) fizinio pajėgumo rodiklius. 3. Nustatyti jaunesnio mokyklinio amžiaus vaikų hiperaktyvumo sąsajas su fiziniu pajėgumu. Tiriamieji klausimai: dėl sparčių fiziologinių pokyčių organizme, dar nesusiformavusios psichologinės ir socialinės brandos, paaugliai yra mažiau atsparūs aplinkos poveikiui. Vienas iš dažniausiai pasitaikančių sutrikimų yra aktyvumo ir dėmesio sutrikimas (angl. attention deficit hyperactivity disorder - ADHD). Jo paplitimas pasaulyje ir Lietuvoje vis didėja. Tačiau ADHD sindromo tyrimų ankstyvosios paauglystės laikotarpiu beveik nėra. Todėl labai įdomu ir svarbu kaip dėmesio ir aktyvumo sutrikimo sindromas yra susijęs su jaunuolių fizinio pajėgumo rodikliais. Rezultatai: vienas iš hiperaktyvumui būdingų požymių – nenustygimas vietoje, nesugebėjimas išlikti ramiam ilgesnį laiką – būdingas 23,5 proc. mergaičių ir 14,3 proc. berniukų (p>0,05). Didelė dalis respondentų – 70,6 proc. mergaičių ir 71,4 proc. berniukų neigia, kad dažnai pyksta ar nesivaldo (p>0,05), ir tik 5,9 proc. mergaičių ir 14,3 proc. berniukų šis požymis yra būdingas (p<0,05). Net 57,1 proc. berniukų greitai išsiblaško. Atlikti Eurofit‘o testai parodė...

To rate younger school age (11-12 years old) children hyperactivity symptoms. 2. To rate younger school age (11-12 years old) children physical fitness indexes. 3.

Results: one of the hyperactivity symptoms – restlessness, inability to stay quiet for a longer time – typical for 23.5 perc. of girls and 14.3 perc. of boys (p>0.05).

Goals:The goal of the thesis is to teach young children (6-9 years old) breaststroke swimming style by usage a dolphin wave. Methods:The thesis is mainly descriptive multi-case study. We used standardized and even non- standardized methods. The teaching method had been applied to a group of six children (6-9 years old) and analyzed by the diploma thesis author after its application. In the same time we teach another group of six children by standard breatststroke didactics method, so we were able to compare both methods. Results:The application of dolphin wave method into didactic of breaststroke swimming style has advantages and even disadvantages. The advantage is mainly freedom of movement, so children can use their creativity and sence to find the optimal movement. On the other hand the freedom is also disadvantage, since it can cause a little chaos at the beginning of the training. The successfulness of both methods was same. In both groups four children learnt the breaststroke and two did not. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
