요리활동에 기초한 책 만들기 활동이 유아의 수학개념 및 쓰기발달에 미치는 영향

초록

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of cookbook making activities on young children’s mathematical concept and writing development. The participants were comprised of 50 five-year-old children from two intact classes from a kindergarten in Gyeonggi province, and they were divided into an experimental and a comparison group. The experimental group participated in cooking activities and produced cookbooks as extension activities whereas the comparison group carried out only cooking activities. The results indicated that the children in the experimental group received statistically higher scores in mathematical concept- and writing-tests, suggesting that cookbook making activities are a useful educational tool for enhancing young children’s mathematical concepts and facilitating their writing development.
