Abstract:

Research Objective is to identify: 1- The skill of organizing information among children of kindergartens 2- Are there differences of statistical significance according to gender variable (males , females). The study sample consisted of (150) children (males and females) of age (5-6) years of the preliminary stage. The sample was selected from the governmental kindergartens in Baghdad, with its two sides Karkh and Rusafa, in a random manner. The two researchers have prepared the test of skill of organizing information. The test consists of three basic skills: 1- the skill of comparison 2- the skill of classification 3- the skill arrangement, each skill consists of (5) sub - tests and each sub - test consists of (3) items (pictures). The two researchers applied the test individually. To verify the validity of the test, the researchers relied on the indicator of logical validity and the validity of the construction. To evaluate the stability, the researchers adopted the method of equivalence (Kyudar - Richardson 20). The results showed that the children of kindergartens have the skill of organizing information. The results indicated that there are no statistically significant differences between the genders (males and females) variables. The two researchers reached some recommendations and proposals.
