the acquiring of some scientific concepts for the kindergarteners.
To achieve the research objectives, scientific activities and pictured scientific
concepts test w
ere used.
The study reached the following results:
1. There are no significant differences at (a = 0,05) between the mean scores of the
experimental and control groups on acquiring scientific conceptsin pre-application.
2. There are significant differences at (a = 0,05) between the meanscores of the
experimental and control groups on acquiring scientific concepts in post-application. The
results were in favor of the experimental group.
3. The effectiveness of negative example on the acquiring of some scientific concepts
for the kindergarteners.
