Children aged 6 and 7 develop logical thinking at a growing rate and that is very important for various mathematical activities that stimulate mental development. The tasks are interesting, puzzle-like and not typical. Coming up with an idea for solving a problem develops the creative potential and intuition that is required for mathematics in general. Both books contain a diploma and stickers which are to be used for rating the child’s performance in solving problems. In this way children are taught to assess their work and judge its value which has a substantial educational effect.

ЛЕВАК И ПЛАМЕН На ветру пламен свеће постаје немиран и повија се на све стране. Провери шта је то што утиче на повијање пламена.

Шта ће се догодити Када ваздух излази кроз узани део левка, пламен се удаљава од левка. Када ваздух излази из широког дела, пламен се повија према левку.

Потреба н прибор: упаљена свећа, левак

1. Свећу постави на сто, па кроз левак

лагано дуни према њој, али тако да се пламен не угаси, већ само да се повије.

2. Окрени левак и поново дуни према свећи. Провери шта се догађа с пламеном.

ПРЕСАВИЈАЊЕ ПАПИ Р Лист папира лако се пресавија. Провери колико пута можеш да га пресавијеш. Затим покушај исто с папирима различите величине.

А Потреба н прибор:

листови папира различите величине

1. Пресавиј сваки лист папира онолико пута колико је то могуће.

2. Забележи број пресавијања. Шта ће се догодити Сваки од листова папира пресавићеш највише седам пута.

Разлог Када изађе из узаног дела, струјне линије ваздуха се шире, подухватају пламен и он се повија у смеру тих линија. Када је левак ширим делом окренут ка пламену, ширење струјних линија догађа се још у левку. Линије ударају у зидове левка, мењају смер и ковитлају се. Због тога до пламена ваздух стиже са стране супротне левку и повија га ка унутра.

Разлог Листови папира пресавијањем граде вишеслојни облик. Када се папир пресавије више пута, број слојева толико је велики да онемогућава даље савијање. Чак и танак папир веома се тешко савија када се број слојева повећа на више од сто, што се догађа после седам савијања.

The latest novel by an award winning author is a tender and exciting coming of age novel from the time of grange, first video games and dial-up internet. It is a story from the ‘90s when the times were turbulent in the Balkans, when generation X was in their teens, growing up with good music, films and comic books but was also searching for the lights of the stars in the darkness they found themselves in. The novel is composed as the reminiscence of the protagonist from the times when epic confrontations of the good and the evil were seeping down from the comic books into the real world. This tender and at the same time bitter story is intended for the new generations who are also in the search of their own dreams and need the answers which can also be found in the past.
