Summary/Abstract: The dominant approach in children to explore holistically the world, namely to see the world in all his wholeness implies in education the need to gradually immerse pupils in perceiving various parts of the world. Hence, in educating teachers of preschool and early childhood education it is important to mention that the factor that increases the level of competences acquired in this area is to strengthen the experience in the field of visual perception and activities aimed at developing spatial imagination, which are important for understanding the legitimacy of conducting activities with children also based on spatial shaping. As a result of the above mentioned, the research was conducted to establish the relationship between the talents of students studying in the field of pre- and early school education and the abilities to observe and code three-dimensional figures by using the language of fine art. Efforts were made to obtain answers to the question stated: What dependencies exist between the skills of creating images of the observed systems of figures and the indicated talents of students. An additional problem that need to be stated was the question of determining the level of skills and abilities to create images of the observed spatial arrangements of objects by future teachers of elementary education. Implementation of didactic tasks – as part of the basic art and technical classes conducted in primary schools, covering activities on flat compositions, but also on forming spatial figures and undertaking construction works – requires teachers to understand the importance of implementing such actions already at the earliest stages of education. Searching and applying various teaching aids supporting children’s development of the constructive sense and spatial imagination, can be of significant importance for teaching geometry at the next educational stages and for orientation in the external environment.
