The tasks related to the goal are:
- Selection of appropriate interactive methods to stimulate children for active participation, gaining knowledge, gaining experience in learning about the diversity of the world.
- Establishing children's attitudes towards difference.
- Derivation of strategies for acceptance of diversity in the surrounding world by the child. The object of the study are the attitudes of children aged 5-6 / 20 children / to accept the diversity of the world, acceptance and the existing differences.
The subject of the research are the manifestations of respect, support, cooperation, positive attitude towards difference. The results orient the teacher to create an environment in which through play and personal experience the children explore and get acquainted with universal values.
