Abstract

Dancing is one of the tools of mutual verbal and non-verbal communication between people, in which there is confrontation with the social environment. Nowadays, in high-tech era, when there is often absence of mutual personal meeting, participation in recreational and social events is beneficial. No knowledge of folk dance can be one of the reasons for not participating in such events. The fundamentals of folk dance are needed to be taught in family from the birth, but it is important to motivate the educational reality in school. Education for traditional values of folk culture focusing on folk dance was part of the educational process in primary education in the past and remains as a part of it in the present. The article presents partial results of the research, which focused on the implementation of elements of folk culture in the educational process in primary education in Slovakia and Hungary.
