THE CREATIVE AND FORMATIVE ROLE OF POETRY IN THE PRE-SCHOOL TUITION

In the children's literature, poetry has a very important place. This type of literature expresses an artistic message with images, a concentrated language, translating affectivity, rhyme language, rhythm, etc. Unlike "the book with pictures", poetry involves direct contact with "the art of the word" through the poetic function of language and the proper organization of the verbal material. The process of guided learning with the help of poetry, which begins at pre-school age, introduces the child deeper into his universe, gradually revealing his ideological and emotional content as well as the ability to use the word. The research tries to demonstrate that provoking the children to a permanent intellectual effort and their abilities for learning properly, represents the most effective way of teaching pupils in order to achieve active and conscious attitudes for reaching success. Affordable notional content obliges to use a vocabulary known to children, novelty and charm coming from the mastery and originality of word combinations. Impressed by the vivid colors of music and play, children look for similar elements in poetry: visual and auditory images, simple, but full of dynamism and power of suggestion, musical effects made by various processes (onomatopoeic words and expressions, rehearsals, imitation harmonies).
