  <dc:description xml:lang="eng">Abstract:
The  newest  reform  of  the  educational  system  in  Serbia  brings  forward  the  project approach  on  all  levels  of  the  educational  system.  In  the  preschool  program,  it  is advocated as a dominant approach. This paper describes one curricular experiment – implemented  at  the  University  of  Belgrade  in  Serbia  that  has  enabled  a  group  of prospective preschool teachers to implement the project approach. Our research project aimed to document the preservice preschool teachers&apos; competencies to use the project approach. The experimental program explored The Museum of African Art as a context for  discovering  mathematics  ideas  which  were  later  used  in  project  activities  with preschool  children.  Here  we  discuss  findings  based  on  a  sample of  46  interviews conducted  with  prospective  preschool  teachers  who  were  asked  to  reflect  on  their experience. The analysis shows that the Museum presented a valuable cultural resource for  learning  and  student  teachers  developed  partial  sensitivity  to  opportunities  for learning mathematics.</dc:description>
