Abstract

The childhood period includes nursery period is the most period that the child wants to discover and knowledge and that we see it in daily and normal activity that he does it. And after creating  the science aspects  and growth it by children and that is one of goals the Education and this goal is requested a style education includes a corrective scientific aspects and creating them and getting them by experience that getting it by visits many places of nurseries and meeting some of teachers and search about the program working and application it and notes a problem  that summarized that is not found a science program used by teacher to teach the science aspects for children that realized her goals and needs to grow. The problem of search is limited by answer the following question (the experimental program suggestion is influenced in development some of scientific aspects at nursery's children?     proposed program have an impact in developing kindergarten kids' some scientific concepts?                                                                                                

The following Research targets:

1. Building up a tool for detecting the kindergarten kids' scientific concepts level within the (Research perimeters) .
2. Establishing a program aiming to developing kindergarten children's some scientific concepts
3. Identifying the impact of the program in developing kindergarten children's some scientific concepts by considering the following hypotheses:

a- There are no statistical reference differences between the children's empirical group average marks on the scientific concepts scale in the pre-and post test, b- There are no statistical reference differences between the children's control group average marks on the scientific concepts scale in the pre- and post test, c- There are no statistical, reference differences between the children's empirical and control groups average marks on the scientific concepts scale after applying the program.

Developing the following scientific concepts:

1. The Air

The research specimen has included the following:

Specimen of identifying the kindergarten children

1. The Sounds
2. The Heat
3. The Colors

• Preliminary at age of (5-6) years old, (400) kids have been randomly selected from (16) kindergarten in the city of Baghdad- Al- Karkh and Al- Resafa
• The sample of applying the program was taken from the sample of identifying as it includes the low marks kids on the scientific concepts scale and they were selected intentionally from the identifying sample.

Total of (40) kids from Al Faris and Al- Narjis. .

They were divided into two empirical groups consisting of two groups consisting of (20) kids and a control group consisting of (20) kids after the equivalence between both the empirical and control groups has been made of (children's marks on the scientific concepts scale in the pre- and post test, the age, the gender, father's academic qualification, mother's academic qualification, father's occupation, mother's                               occupation, number of family members, child's order in birth                               

dear to achieve the Research objectives, the researcher made two pints:

1. Establishing a scale, for measuring kindergarten kids' scientific concepts,, as the researcher has defined general concepts included in the Research; they are: (air, sounds, heat, colors), then, she broke down each general concept into sub- concepts and she formulated (133) items, they represent a set of behavioral

goals. Each one of the general concepts and its sub- concept contents initiated with behavioral observable and measurable action as follows:

The first concept is the air which includes 41 behavioral goals. 

The second concept is the sounds which includes 30 behavioral goals.

The third concept is the heat which includes 30 behavioral goals. The fourth concept is the colors which includes 33 behavioral goals.

1. Establishing a program for developing the scientific concepts which have been defined and the credibility and firmness of the scale and the program have been verified by presenting it to a group of experts in the field f the educational sciences and psychology and kindergartens.

The researcher has used the statistical approaches in accordance with the Research objectives and requirements, as follows:

• Man Whtney's test, the following test, , Welkoksin's test. Berson correlation coefficient
• Al Fakir Witbakh formulation.

Research has concluded a set of findings, the most important of h are:

1. There are statistical reference differences between the two averages of the pre- test of both empirical and control groups.
2. There are statistical reference differences between the two averages of the post- test of both empirical and control groups.
