Abstract

It is known that the foundations of learning in the cultural and educational process are laid in the preschool period. In this period, children acquire information on many different subjects by interacting with their environment in every field. Suggestions, intuitions, and experiences lie in the formation of this knowledge. Children, who learn mainly through intuition, gain experiences thanks to the mutual symbolization they make with objects. In this process, they try to make sense of what they perceive according to their experiences. In this study, it was aimed to improve the mathematical skills of preschool children with the use of creative drama techniques, based on the strategies suggested in the instructional design model of Seels and Glasgow, and accordingly, the teaching processes were designed with sessions and activities that included two classroom processes and discussed within the scope of the literature.
