THE IMPORTANCE OF DEVELOPING SENSES IN PRESCHOOL AGE CHILDREN FOR BETTER COMPREHENSION COMPETENCE

The child recognizes the world through his senses: tasting, touching, smelling, seeing, hearing, and moving. Sensory experience - is the first cognition of the world. Therefore, we create a positive learning environment for children recognize and identify their feelings, understand new information. Children gain the experience and acquire knowledge first of all through the play. There are the certain tools, toys and materials which are needed to meet cognitive demand in each child's development level. The project "I will perceive the world in this way" has been lasted for one academic year in order to educate and empower the children's senses. The project goal: Encourage each child to explore the world through the basic 5 senses. The project participants: 4-5 years old children. Three new games have been played and practical activity has been organized each month. After project children have expanded empowerment of their senses. They gained not only theoretical, visual knowledge about nature and environment practice, but also had heightened tasting, hearing, touching senses and perception.
