국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 생태유아교육에 있어서 국악을 활용할 수 있는 다양한 방법을 모색한 글이다. 연구자는 먼저 국악의 자연성을 살펴보고, 국악의 자연적 특성을 오늘의 유아교육에 적용시킬 수 있는 지도방안을 제시하였다. 첫째는 국악곡을 감상하며 자연스러운 숨쉬기를 유도하고, 둘째는 국악곡을 들으며 한지에 산을 그려보는 작업을 하였다. 셋째는 가야금 소리를 '소리비'라고 상정하여 가야금 곡을 유아가 온 몸으로 느끼면서 들어봄을써 몸 감각을 일깨우는 수업이며, 넷째는 국악 동요에 맞추어 춤을 추면서 한국춤이 갖는 생태적 움직임을 경험하도록 하였다. 다섯째는 바깥놀이 때 유아가 부를 수 있는 농요를 제시하였다. 이와 같이 국악에 내제된 자연적 음악 특성과 아름다움은 더욱 발견되어 생태 유아교육에 활용되어야 할 것이다.
