만 2세 표준보육과정을 기반으로 보육계획안의 수학교육 내용분석

An Analysis of the Mathematics Education Contents in Standardized Child Care Curriculum for Young Children Aged Two - Focusing on Nursery Child Care Initiative -

본 연구의 목적은 만 2세 표준보육과정을 기반으로 보육계획안에 나타난 수학교육 내용을 분석하는 데 있다. 분석대상은 P시에 위치한 7개의 어린이집 수업에 적용한 일일보육계획안이며, 표준보육과정에 기초한 보육계획안을 바탕으로 수학교육의 생활주제별 분포와 실내자유놀이 활동별 분포를 빈도와 백분율로 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 만 2세 표준보육과정 일일보육계획안의 수학교육 내용은 공간과 도형에 관심가지기와 구분하기의 영역이 가장 많이 분포가 나타났고, 단순한 규칙성에 관심가지기는 가장 적게 나타났다. 생활주제별 수학적 탐구하기 내용으로 ‘동물놀이해요’와 ‘알록달록 가을이에요’의 생활주제에서 가장 많이 나타났다. 둘째, 만 2세 표준보육과정 일일보육계획안에 나타난 수학교육 내용 중 실내자유놀이영역에서는 감각·탐색 흥미 영역, 수학교육내용에서는 공간과 도형에 관심가지기의 내용이 가장 많이 나타났으며, 세부내용으로 ‘주변사물의 모양에 관심을 가진다’에 집중적인 분포가 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the mathematics contents that involve life themes and activity types, provided for young children, based on the daily child care plans drawn up by day care center teachers and identify how such are being actually applied at day care centers. For a frequency-based analysis, daily education plans used for classes in seven day care centers located in P City were collected., All the daily education plans were found to accord with the names and contents of daily activity by life theme in the standardized child care curriculum for young children aged two. The findings of this study are summarized as follows. First, the most frequent mathematics education content in the daily child care plans was ‘taking interest in space and figure and classifying the twos,’ whereas ‘taking interest in simple rules’ was the least frequent. By life theme, ‘playing animals’ and ‘enjoying colorful autumn’ were the most frequent, whereas in mathematics education contents, ‘taking interest in space and figure and classifying the twos’ was the most frequent and ‘taking interest in simple rules’ was the least frequent. Second, the indoor free play activity with the greatest number of mathematics contents was ‘sense/exploration area of interest’. In addition, in mathematics education contents, ‘taking interest in space and figure’ was the most frequent, with the most frequent sub-topic being ‘taking interest in shape of objects around us.’
