  • Recognizing spatial representations of numbers
    Lipovec, Alenka ; Antolin Drešar, Darja, 1984-
    The first part of the paper focuses on preschool children's spatial representation of numbers. The empirical part presents the results of the research aimed to explore preschool children's ... recognition of numbers when using quick-image cards. Cards with one to ten dots with different dots arrangements were shown to preschool children and children were asked to recognize the number of dots. We observed which one of the three different communication modes (say the word, show with your fingers or use a concrete material) was most commonly used by preschool children when recognizing the number of dots. The research was based on non-probability, the convenience sample consisted of sixty children aged three, four and five. Findings indicated that children, when answering, mainly used the verbal way of communication. At the same time, it was noticed that a proportion of verbal responses was decreasing when the number of dots was increasing. Among different spatial arrangements of dots on the dots-cards, the children were most successful in recognizing the arrangements of dots that were identical to those on a dice.
