Abstract

The exercises about heroes and revolutionary leaders for the didactic software Let´s Play (A Jugar), came into being as a need to practice the contents in the subject The Field of Knowledge of the Social World, especially those which have to do with heroic revolutionary leaders included in the syllabus of the subject for the fourth stage in Kindergarten, since they allow young children to be in close contact with our patriotic symbols, heroes and revolutionary leaders. However, this didactic software does not fully permit to fulfill this social role. Therefore, the main objective of the current paper is to design activities focused on this topic so as to complement the impact of the software Let´s Play on the preschoolers’ learning, as well as the formation of their moral qualities and value system based on the example of outstanding national historical personalities. The literature review allowed us to organize the limited bibliography scattered in newspaper articles, magazines and other sources so as to design a set of 27 exercises with complementing images and songs which were validated through the opinion of seven experts and the four preschool teachers who implemented them in their classes. The trial test given to a sample of 20 male and female preschoolers of “Juliana Montano” Nursery Home after the implementation of the proposal, revealed that 19 children, that is 95%, were able to put into practice the knowledge related to the contents treated, through observation and direct contact with the environment in a spontaneous way; serving as a basis in the formation of feelings and positive motives as well. The results show that these activities allow young children from Kindergarten to practice and apply their knowledge on this area; at the same time, they constitute an integrated source for the educators´ previous preparation as well as an invaluable tool in the hands of software designers and programmers.
