ABSTRACT: The present work was carried out within the framework of the undergraduate program of pedagogy and more specifically pre-school education of the Metropolitan College. The choice of the topic to be analyzed was out of my own interest because I always wanted to learn how each teacher sees his/her work and whether he/she considers it that he/she can do it right. In addition, in order to conduct this research, quantitative research was used to try to capture the view of forty (40) preschool teachers on the teaching of the subject of statistics in kindergartens. The tool used to conduct the research was the questionnaire used by Aggelopoulou in her research, which was based on the questions used in the TMSS-4th Grade Teacher Questionnaire (2011) and was applied to 40 primary school teachers. In addition, the general purpose of this research is to explore how teaching the subject of statistics can be integrated into today’s kindergartens. The results will greatly help educational research so that there is more knowledge on this subject.
