Secondary title:	Hands-on approach to science concepts in kindergarten
Secondary abstract:	The scope of this thesis is focused on how kindergarten children on the basis of observation and performing simple experiments are able to acquire and reconstruct some basic scientific concepts e.g. gas and air. Through observing children’s performance and comments on the results of experiments it was possible to infer howchildren achieve the objectives of the individual units, mainly related to the above two concepts. The data were collected using the descriptive method of educational research, analyzed and presented descriptively and graphically. The majority of children assimilated and reconstructed the concepts in accordance with their cognitive development, i.e. they identified the mentioned concepts, but were not able to differentiate them entirely. Based on the results of the research it can be claimed that the method of conducting simple experiments and observing the outcomes helped change alternative concepts and began a reconstruction of naive notions toward scientific conceptualization.

Abstract (ePrints):	V diplomskem delu sem preučevala kako so predšolski otroci na podlagi opazovanja in izvajanja preprostih poskusov usvajali ali rekonstruirali pojme kot sta plin in zrak. Preko opazovanja izvajanja poskusov in zapisovanja otroških komentarjev o rezultatih poskusov sem preverjala dosegaje ciljev posameznih enot, vezane predvsem na gornja dva pojma. Podatki so bili pridobljeni z deskriptivno metodo pedagoškega raziskovanja, vrednoteni s kvalitativno analizo in predstavljeni opisno ter grafično. Večina otrok je usvajala in rekonstruirala pojme v skladu s svojim miselnim razvojem kar pomeni, da so omenjena pojma prepoznali, niso pa ju znali popolnoma razlikovati. Vendar lahko na podlagi rezultatov ugotovimo, da je metoda, ki je temeljila na opazovanju rezultatov preprostih poskusov in samostojnem izvajanju pripomogla k začetku spreminjanja alternativnih pojmov in začetku rekonstrukcije naivnih predstav v smeri znanstvenega pojmovanja.
