Project "Miracle Tree"

Project type: ecological, research-creative, collective.

Duration: long-term ( September-May 2015-2016.)

Project participants : children, teachers, parents of students.

Relevance of the topic :

We created this museum because we wanted to arouse interest, a positive emotional response from an encounter with beauty, enrich the group’s subject-development environment, attract students’ parents to cooperation, and introduce children to the properties of wood. Tell children how people use the properties of materials when making toys and other items.

Objective of the project : to introduce children to the properties of wood through experimental activities, and also to expand children’s understanding of the variety of wooden products and their purpose. Give your child the opportunity to really, independently discover the magical world of wood.

Project objectives:

1. To form a generalized idea of trees, types of wooden products and their significance in our lives;

2. To acquaint children with the properties, features, possibilities of using wood in everyday life, its value for people’s lives;

3. Draw attention to the need to take care of trees, to the connection between forest protection and our everyday life;

4. Develop search activity and intellectual activity;

Creating conditions for the implementation of the project:

Prepare a selection fiction in the book corner, add interesting bright illustrations about wood and what can be made from it.

Interaction with parents.

1. Introduce parents to the project. Talk about the goals and objectives of the project.

2. Find out what trees grow in the children’s yards and in their summer cottages.
3. Offer to help in selecting educational material about trees(photos, illustrations, fairy tales, stories, riddles, proverbs, sayings, poems) .
4. Family excursions to the forest.
5. Offer to conduct various explorations and games with children while relaxing in nature, in the country.
6. Help in collecting objects made of wood and birch bark for the exhibition.

Project implementation

Educational activities during regime moments:

Reading and learning poems about trees and guessing riddles. Selection of proverbs and sayings.

Reading works of fiction.

Conversations with children on the topic using games and exercises to develop independent thinking.

Conversations with children:

“Introduce to the rich diversity of flora”

« Conversations about trees" in more detail in the classroom and in everyday life:
a) Introduction to the tree (crown, leaves, bark, trunk, roots, flowers, fruits, seeds)
How tall is the tree?
What is the width of the tree?
Does the tree have neighbors? Friends? Familiar?
Does a tree have a family?
Does the tree have “children”?
What is bark, trunk, what is it used for, what is it like? What does it smell like at different times of the year?( V dry weather, after rain...) ?
Are there cracks, hollows, lichens, or mosses on the tree? What are they? How many are there, what color?
Are there human marks on the bark? Was the tree able to heal its wounds?
We study fruits and seeds: what are they, who distributes them, what are they for?
Are there any mushrooms on the tree trunk or under it?
Is there a way to find out the age of a tree? Which?
Is it possible to hide under a tree from a thunderstorm? Why?

b) Animals associated with the tree.
A tree is a dining room and home for many animals. A large number of different living organisms are associated with a tree, which we do not notice.

c) Soil.
In nature, nutrients return to the soil along with fallen leaves, which contributes to the cycle of matter in nature. On our site, in parks, squares, gardens, people try to remove leaves, considering them garbage. As a result, some of the nutrients are not returned to the soil, thereby reducing its fertility. Invite the children to think about where the fallen leaves go in the forest, where people don’t clean them up.

Research:
Does anyone live in the soil under the tree? Examine the ground near the trunk with a magnifying glass. Residents improve the soil from which the tree obtains food.
Draw the attention of children before the rain to see if earthworms have appeared under the tree. Protect them! Take a closer look, get to know each other, find out how they crawl. Earthworms loosen the soil, process rotting leaves, which means they help the tree.

Precipitation (snow, rain, frost) .
Measuring snow depth. Does snow help? How does snow help a tree? Its role in the life of trees. Snow cover protects tree roots and soil inhabitants from freezing.
The importance of precipitation in the life of trees. Does a tree help any animals shelter from the rain? How and where? Is it formed in winter time frost on tree branches? Why? Consider.

Determine the mood of the tree: sad, cheerful, happy, sad, silent, cheerful, thoughtful, spring. What time of year, what weather, what mood does the tree have?
Target: to interest the problem, to find out children’s ideas about these plants, their relationship to the tree.

Didactic games:

“Choose a word” (for the word birch),
“Which tree?” (selection of adjectives),
“Come up with words with the same root”
“Find the tree according to the description”
"From seed to tree"
"Compare"
"What's extra?"
"Helpful - harmful"
“Say it differently,” etc.

Target: teach to compare, generalize, qualify.

Memorizing poems :

Quiz “What do we know about trees?”

Exhibits and sections: Along one of the walls there are exhibits reflecting the life of a tree in nature: a model of a plant, animals associated with it (toys), pine cones, a stump, mosses, photographs of forest inhabitants and various trees.

Section “Tree of Riddles”

The tree is depicted on the wall. Paper leaves with riddles on the theme of the mini-museum are attached to the branches. The teacher can always invite the children to stop by a tree and guess a couple of riddles.

Section "Tree structure" » introduces children to the different parts of a tree. Leaves and fruits of different trees (rowan, oak, birch, linden) On the shelf there are small cuts of old trees with clearly visible annual rings, beautifully curved tree roots, a vase with dry branches.

Section “Bark and forest inhabitants” » talks about the importance of tree bark for different animals. The bark is a refuge for insects. They hide under it, “sleep” in winter, and lay larvae. For clarity, the museum displays a log with small insect toys placed in the crevices of its bark. The bark is also food for moose, hares and other animals. Therefore, in the center of the panel of the mini-museum, a piece of bark is attached, around which everyone who eats it is located.

Section “How does a person use the bark?” » presented both with real samples telling about the use of bark (various crafts) and with illustrations. Its exhibits include:

Birch bark - household products and decorations.

Pieces of birch bark, reminiscent of the fact that in the old days letters were written on this material.

Pine bark (in the old days it was used for roofing.)

Linden bark, bast for bast shoes and other products

Bark souvenirs and other crafts.

Oak bark (used for tanning, leather dressing).

Section “What bark smells like” ». Some types of bark have a distinct smell, and this is also reflected in the mini-museum. Edible cinnamon and juniper bark are poured into small linen bags. There is a sign nearby explaining to children that this exhibit can be smelled.

Section “Tree in human life” » features exhibits that teach children about how humans use trees. The shelves contain a variety of wooden objects: toys (matryoshka dolls, cubes, animals), household items, birch bark crafts, wooden figurines, boxes, spoons, kitchen boards, rolling pins and other utensils, baskets with pine, spruce, larch cones, books and calendars about trees, applications from dry leaves.

Section "Golden pens". This section presents crafts made by children from bark, as well as works on visual arts.

Section “Leaves - delicious food” » presented with illustrations, small toys, and different leaves. His materials remind us that leaves are food for a variety of animals: from caterpillars to elephants. Humans also eat the leaves of some plants (cabbage, lettuce, bay leaves, etc.). Fallen leaves are eaten by earthworms.

Section “Leaves heal” - this is a shelf with boxes of medicinal plants: nettle, sage, lingonberry. This section talks about medicinal properties some leaves.Kommersant

Where there was an empty place, where there was nothing,
Let everyone plant a tree and not forget it.

And how much freshness it will contain, and bird songs, and nests!

White birch
White birch tree under my window
She covered herself with snow, like silver.

The tassels bloomed with white fringe.

And snowflakes burn in golden fire,
And the dawn, lazily walking around,
Sprinkles the branches with new silver.
S. Yesenin

Winter sleep of birches
Thin birch trees are covered with silver,
It was as if they had turned gray and fallen asleep in a dream.
As if winter had come in their souls,
She covered it with frost and covered it with snow.
You, birch trees, are sad - the birds are not chirping,
Uncomfortable, empty, as if forever.
Maybe it's fortunate that it's so cold -
Freezes the wounds, freezes the pain.
It will freeze tears and melancholy - sadness.
Thin birches, I feel incredibly sorry for you.
Be patient for a little while, you won’t have to suffer forever,
All that's left is to wait out the winter until spring.
Inna Raduzhnaya

***

I love Russian birch, sometimes bright, sometimes sad
In a bleached sundress, with handkerchiefs in his pockets.
With beautiful clasps and green earrings.
I love her elegant, dear, beloved,
Sometimes clear, ebullient, sometimes sad, weeping,
I love Russian birch.
She is always with her friends.
Bends low in the wind
And it bends, but does not break.
A. Prokofiev

First sheet
The leaf turns green young.
Look how the birch trees stand covered with young leaves,
Airy greenery, translucent, like smoke...
For a long time they dreamed of golden spring, spring and summer, -
And these dreams are alive, under the first blue sky,
Suddenly they made their way into the light of day...
Oh, the beauty of the first leaves, washed in the sun's rays,
With their newborn shadow! And we can hear by their movement,
That in these thousands and darkness you will not find a dead leaf...
F. Tyutchev

***

Autumn
Suddenly it became twice as bright, the yard was like in the sun’s rays -
This dress is golden with a birch tree on the shoulders.
In the morning we go into the yard - the leaves are falling like rain,
They rustle underfoot and fly... fly... fly...
Cobwebs fly by with spiders in the middle,
And the cranes flew high from the ground.
Everything flies! This must be our summer flying away.
E. Trutneva

***

Birch
Birch tree, white swan, I’m standing next to you.
To you, my timid one, I sing a song.
How you stand, happy, on a cheerful summer day,
Because of you, beautiful, there is light in my forest.
Green, free, you are more flexible than reeds.
White-trunked birch, well, you are good for everyone!
A. Prokofiev

Aspen

In the autumn garden,
By the path
Aspen claps
In the palms.
That's why
That week
Her palms
Blushed.

Lipka

I'm thick, curly
I will grow up to glory, -
Tag me!
I'm honey colored
I bloom in the summer, -
Protect me!
And on a hot day
I’ll hide it in the shade from the sun, -
Water me!
It rains sometimes,
I'll hide you from the rain, -
Don't break me!
Good for both
We can grow with you, -
Love me!
You will go out into the wide world,
You will see the whole country, -
Do not forget about me!

The wind braids the braids.

The autumn forest falls asleep,
Naked and empty
But viburnum doesn’t remove
Red beads.
The steppe is getting colder under the snow,
All white.
And the viburnum glows brightly
Sat around.

Introduction

(V. Berestov)

Human and nature…

Practical, educational, and research activities in natural conditions play a huge role in the environmental education of preschool children. Environmental education begins with getting to know the objects in the immediate environment that the child encounters every day. It will not be effective without the emotional perception of trees, grass, sunsets and sunrises. A child can enjoy the beauty of a drop of dew on a leaf, the first blossoming flower, the smell of rain and foliage, and will understand how fragile the natural world is and how dependent it is on human actions.

In any city or village you can find natural objects interesting to observe. And such a natural object for our group became a tree, a birch tree.

"Happy Tree"

The tree makes noise all summer with its green leaves
And having turned yellow, he will undress in the autumn.
Frost is not terrible for the tree: snow is sprinkled on the trunk.
The tree will keep warm in it, it is like fur to the tree.
In spring, whitewash glows, dug around...
A happy tree grows, the tree has a friend.
(V. Musatov)

Our environmental project that's what it's called “Birch is our tree.”

Project type cognitive - research.

Project participants : teachers, children, parents of the group.

Get interested in the problem.
Find out children's ideas about trees.
Conduct observations of changes in the life of trees in different seasons of the year.
Support your child's interest in nature.
Build research abilities in the process of studying.
Improve health.

Tasks:
1. To form a generalized idea of trees in general and birch in particular.
2. Develop a cognitive interest in all living things, a desire to gain new knowledge from books; develop curiosity, observation, imagination.
3. Gain experience with children research activities, to develop the ability to realize interests.
4. Develop the ability to predict future changes.
5. Develop in children a desire for healthy image life.
6. Shape creative thinking, emotional attitude towards trees.
7. Cultivate a love for nature, a desire to protect and protect it.

Integration educational areas: cognition, communication, socialization, artistic and aesthetic, reading fiction, etc.

Expected results: children will learn to care for plants and become familiar with the conditions under which they are kept, and will learn to notice the beauty of the plant world.

Project activities.

Stage 1. Preparatory.
1. Study the level of children’s knowledge on the topic and determine this knowledge.
2. Creation creative group to help implement the project: teachers, parents, music director, library.
3. Drawing up a work plan. Discussion with parents about the content of the project.
4. Selection of methodological and fiction literature. Making visual and didactic material.

Tasks:
1. Identify children’s knowledge and ideas about birch.
2. Planning the upcoming work.
3. Interest parents in the topic of the project, both in the content of creative and intellectual development pupils.
4. Collect information about birch from various sources, select fiction and educational literature, illustrations, photographs.

Stage 2. Content-based (research).

1. Lesson “Trees in our yard.”
Target: consolidate children's knowledge about trees as representatives of the Earth's flora, their beauty and benefits; cultivate a caring attitude towards your “green friend”; select an object to observe, give it a name; teach to save nature.

2. Excursion to autumn garden- “Autumn drops gold.”
Target: expand children's understanding of the characteristic signs of autumn; clarify ideas about the changes that occur in the life of trees in autumn. Pay attention to the beauty of birch trees.

3. Conversations about trees in general and about birch in more detail in class and inEveryday life:
a) Getting to know the tree (birch “Alenushka”):

crown and leaves,
bark and trunk,
roots,
flowers (inflorescences),
fruits and seeds.

What are they for in birch?
How tall is the tree?
What is the width of the tree?
Does the tree have neighbors? Friends? Familiar?
Does a tree have a family?
Does the tree have “children”?
What is bark, trunk, what is it used for, what is it like? What does it smell like at different times of the year? (in dry weather, after rain...)?
Are there cracks, hollows, lichens, or mosses on the tree? What are they? How many are there, what color?
Are there human marks on the bark? Was the tree able to heal its wounds?
We study fruits and seeds: what are they, who distributes them, what are they for?
Are there any mushrooms on the tree trunk or under it?
Is there a way to find out the age of a tree? Which?
Is it possible to hide under a tree from a thunderstorm? Why?

b) Make a tree passport.

c) Animals associated with the tree.
A tree is a dining room and home for many animals. A large number of different living organisms are associated with a tree, which we do not notice.

d) Soil.
In nature, nutrients return to the soil along with fallen leaves, which contributes to the cycle of matter in nature. On our site, in parks, squares, gardens, people try to remove leaves, considering them garbage. As a result, some of the nutrients are not returned to the soil, thereby reducing its fertility. Invite the children to think about where the fallen leaves go in the forest, where people don’t clean them up.

Research:
Does anyone live in the soil under the tree? Examine the ground near the trunk with a magnifying glass. Residents improve the soil from which the tree obtains food.
Draw the attention of children before the rain to see if earthworms have appeared under the tree. Protect them! Take a closer look, get to know each other, find out how they crawl. Earthworms loosen the soil, process rotting leaves, which means they help the tree.

e) Precipitation (snow, rain, frost).
Measuring snow depth. Does snow help? How does snow help a tree? Its role in the life of trees. Snow cover protects tree roots and soil inhabitants from freezing.
The importance of precipitation in the life of trees. Does a tree help any animals shelter from the rain? How and where? Does frost form on tree branches in winter? Why? Consider.

f) Is it possible to determine the mood of a tree? By what signs can this be done? Does it depend on the time of year, the weather?

What hurts the tree? It's not fun
It creaks very pitifully... Does it really matter?
We should find out more accurately
(Let's be kind to the tree)
What happened to the roots, branches, leaves and bark?
And who is to blame now for his dejected appearance?
I really want to understand what is hurting the tree.
(A. Kondratyev)

Determine the mood of the tree: sad, cheerful, happy, sad, silent, cheerful, thoughtful, spring. What time of year, what weather, what mood does the tree have?
Target: to interest the problem, to find out children’s ideas about these plants, their attitude towards birch.

4. Consideration of illustrative material on the topic.

Poems

Birch
The sun warmed the slopes a little and it became warmer in the forest,
The birch tree hung its green braids from its thin branches.
All dressed in a white dress, earrings, lace foliage,
She meets the hot summer at the edge of the forest.
V. Rozhdestvensky

Birch
The slender beauty is famous throughout all countries:
White clothes, gold earrings.
With an unbraided braid, he washes himself with dew.
The wind moves the strands, but does not order them to be braided.

The letter is a complaint from a birch tree.
On a spring day the boy is angry
I pierced the birch bark with a knife, -
And drops of juice are like tears,
Flowed like a transparent river.
F. Sologub

In a clearing, on a hill, under a window, among fields
The white-bark birch is a symbol of my Motherland.

White birch
White birch tree under my window
She covered herself with snow, like silver.
On fluffy branches with a snow border
The tassels bloomed with white fringe.
And the birch tree stands in sleepy silence
And snowflakes burn in golden fire,
And the dawn, lazily walking around,
Sprinkles the branches with new silver.
S. Yesenin

Winter sleep of birches
Thin birch trees are covered with silver,
It was as if they had turned gray and fallen asleep in a dream.
As if winter had come in their souls,
She covered it with frost and covered it with snow.
You, birch trees, are sad - the birds are not chirping,
Uncomfortable, empty, as if forever.
Maybe it's fortunate that it's so cold -
Freezes the wounds, freezes the pain.
It will freeze tears and melancholy - sadness.
Thin birches, I feel incredibly sorry for you.
Be patient for a little while, you won’t have to suffer forever,
All that's left is to wait out the winter until spring.
Inna Raduzhnaya

First sheet
The leaf turns green young.
Look how the birch trees stand covered with young leaves,
Airy greenery, translucent, like smoke...
For a long time they dreamed of golden spring, spring and summer, -
And these dreams are alive, under the first blue sky,
Suddenly they made their way into the light of day...
Oh, the beauty of the first leaves, washed in the sun's rays,
With their newborn shadow! And we can hear by their movement,
That in these thousands and darkness you will not find a dead leaf...
F. Tyutchev

Autumn
Suddenly it became twice as bright, the yard was like in the sun’s rays -
This dress is golden with a birch tree on the shoulders.
In the morning we go into the yard - the leaves are falling like rain,
They rustle underfoot and fly... fly... fly...
Cobwebs fly by with spiders in the middle,
And the cranes flew high from the ground.
Everything flies! This must be our summer flying away.
E. Trutneva

Birch
Birch tree, white swan, I’m standing next to you.
To you, my timid one, I sing a song.
How you stand, happy, on a cheerful summer day,
Because of you, beautiful, there is light in my forest.
Green, free, you are more flexible than reeds.
White-trunked birch, well, you are good for everyone!
A. Prokofiev

Scenario of the holiday “Russian Birch Day”

Children, accompanied by folk music, go out to the playground to their favorite birch tree and stand around it. It turns out that the teacher is wearing a sundress that resembles a birch tree.

Birch: It's me, birch tree, in a new sundress!
I want, children, to have fun with you!
I congratulate everyone on the holiday today,
I wish everyone joy and fun!

1 child: And we all congratulate you, birch tree,
We wish you happiness and fun.
The beauty - the birch tree - has a silver dress,
The beauty of the birch tree has green braids!

Birch: Thanks guys!

Presenter: Thanks guys! Do you know, guys, that in the old days in June, when sowing work in the fields was over and the grass for mowing had not yet grown, they celebrated a holiday dedicated to the Russian birch - the most beloved tree in Rus'? Let's give our birch a name day today and join in a round dance!

Round dance “A birch tree stood in the field”

2nd child: What a miracle round dance! Everyone dances and sings
And how wonderfully they dance in the green summer meadow
Those girls who climb a birch tree during Trinity week.

3rd child: At first we chose the most beautiful one:
So that the nightingale becomes white and not proud,
So that it is rich in leaves, so that it is curly,
And also so that it grows more freely in the clearing.
The girl saved a ribbon for such a birch tree.

4th child: “To break something” the branches did not really gather,
This is not why the girls dressed up that day.
They just bent the branches and wove them together, several at a time,
And at the end of each braid they wove a ribbon.

5th child: Now the birch tree is ready, dressed up for the holiday!
And decorated with the sun for girls’ round dances!

Presenter: According to legend, the birch tree saves people from various misfortunes and makes them happy. Therefore, girls, girls on holiday decorated this tree with ribbons, danced around it, like us, sang songs, read poems.

Round dance “We went to the meadow”

Birch: This holiday is not simple, it is called Trinity,
It will respond like a thick birch tree in souls,
The breeze will rustle in the roadside willows
And he will announce that everyone can make wreaths.

Song "Trinity"

Oh, the birch tree is white, it has a crown of gold,
Highly curly, all knotty, oh - di - yes - yes!
Semik and Trinity - we have a holiday.
As soon as Ilya arrives, the revelry begins, oh - di - yes - yes!

Game - round dance “Will I go, will I go out”

Birch: The guys sang this chant because haymaking began in the village, and early in the morning fathers and mothers went to the meadows to mow the grass. Only children and old people remained in the village. The children kept up with their parents and went into the forest to pick mushrooms and berries.

Round dance "Mountain yilyn oz vyyim"
(THE STRAWBERRY GROW ON THE MOUNTAIN translation from the Komi language)

Birch: Guys, birds flocked to our clearing, to our birch tree, whistled, chirped... Oh, who is this? (Bunny).

Bunny: I also want to play with you.

Round dance "Zainka, let's go to the forest"

Presenter: Guys, let's tell poems about our favorite birch tree. And you, bunny, listen.

(Reading poems)

Birch: Thanks guys. What interesting and useful things do you know about me?
(Children's answers)

Bunny: Dear birch tree, how many useful things we get from you every year: sap and medicinal buds in the spring, tasty branches in the summer and birch bark in the winter...

Birch: Thank you, guys, that a holiday dedicated to me is part of your custom. Do you think we trees don’t hear or see anything? You are wrong, dears. Our leaves are eyes, our earrings are ears, and with birch bark we sense such small and imperceptible things that you can’t even imagine.

Bunny: Forest dwellers also live their own interesting life and their peace and quiet cannot be disturbed. In the forest you cannot talk loudly, shout or whistle. Therefore, only once a year does the Birch Festival happen. Follow the rules of behavior in the forest, dear guys!

Hey guys, stand in a circle
Give your hand to a friend, friend.
Berezonka is calling us
To our merry round dance!

Round dance “We will stand in a round dance around the birch tree”

Presenter: People have composed many wonderful songs, poems, riddles, proverbs and sayings about the birch tree. Listen to proverbs and sayings about birch:
Birch will keep you warm, but not get you dressed.
And the birch tree’s tears flow when its bark is torn off.

- And there are also such signs:
* If the birch tree is the earliest to pubescent in April, expect a dry summer.
* A lot of sap flows from a birch tree - for a rainy summer.
* The nightingale will sing when it can drink dew from a birch leaf.

- Guess the riddle:
Not caring about the weather, he walks around in a white sundress,
And on one of the warm days, May gives her earrings.

6th child: The slender beauty is famous throughout all countries:
White clothes, gold earrings,
With an unbraided braid, he washes himself with dew.
The wind moves the strands, but does not order them to be braided.

Presenter: We dressed up the birch tree, and it became even more beautiful. And now it’s time to make wishes! (Everyone closes their eyes and makes a wish). And for them to come true, you need to give gifts to the birch tree. (The guys put cookies, sweets, shangi under the birch tree, give it to the birch tree).

Birch: Thanks guys! I am glad that you visited me and warmed me with your songs, poems, round dances, and the warmth of your hearts. Thanks for gifts! And here are my treats for you. (Hands out candy, thanks for round dances, poems and songs). See you again!

Presenter: Our holiday has come to an end, but we will come to visit our birch tree more than once. Thanks guys!

Syktyvkar, Komi Republic, Russia

When God decided to revive the earth, he scattered the seeds of life on the ground and asked Mother Earth to grow herself a green dress: trees, shrubs and herbs. Then Mother Earth asked God what trees should she grow for people? God commanded her to grow such trees so that people would learn divine wisdom from them. This is how different trees grew on the ground. In ancient times, people knew which tree to take which quality of wisdom.

Those who needed to cleanse themselves went to the birch tree and talked to it. The birch tree always reminded people of purity with its snow-white dress, and with its flexible light branches of tenderness.

If anyone had a heavy heart, the old people would send such a person to the linden tree. Linden is a soft and cordial tree - it knows how to soften any heart of stone. No wonder its graceful leaves resemble small hearts. A person breathes in the honeyed linden aroma, and his soul becomes lighter.

People learned courage and firmness from the oak tree. Oak branches were awarded to people who had accomplished great feats, the most courageous and brave.

Here the willow tree is bent over the water and it seems as if the red maiden is grieving for her betrothed, or the little mermaids have turned into weeping willow trees and are grieving for their underwater home. People learned compassion from the willow tree. Those whose hearts are indifferent to the grief of others should come to the willow tree more often. Willow's tears fall into the heart and melt the indifference in it.

Since ancient times, people have noticed that there is a generous harvest of rowan for a harsh winter. The harder the winter, the more generously this tree gives birds, animals and people its wealth of berries and vitamins. Sometimes the entire rowan tree is so strewn with bright red clusters that the thin one bends under its rich dress. But it stands, doesn’t break, waits for when her wealth is needed. People learned generosity from the curly mountain ash.

Each tree has its own appearance and character. Slender pine, tremulous aspen, majestic spruce, mighty oak. Every tree contains a piece of wisdom. The forest is noisy with different voices. Thousands of trees, thousands of treasures... If you come to him, the forest will give you its treasures. Who needs what? For some, mushrooms and berries for food, for others, wood for farming, for others, leaves and buds for health, and for others, wisdom for the heart.

. Give the children cards with pictures of different trees. Everyone imagines themselves as one tree or another, and then tells others about their lives. Everyone else guesses which “tree” was telling about itself.
. While walking through the forest, listen to different trees and try to hear what they are saying.
. What is the character of different trees in the forest?
. Have you seen any unusual trees in the forest? Choose one in the forest unusual tree and write the story of his life.

Lesson topic:“Who lives where, where what grows” (park)

Tongue twister of the day:“Sasha knocked off the pine cones with a stick.”

Purpose of the lesson: updating and supplementing children's knowledge about the inhabitants of the park.

Equipment and materials: children's drawings on the theme “My tree”; images of various trees, leaves and flowers, fruits growing on them, brought by children and selected by the teacher; tables for recording tree count results, pencils.

Preliminary work

Observation "My tree". From the very beginning of spring, each child watches a certain tree. Children can already tell a lot about their trees, give them detailed description. Children know whether the trees they are watching are blooming now, what their flowers look like, whether leaves have appeared, what happens first: flowers or leaves blooming?

We invite children, with the help of their parents or teacher, to draw their trees and prepare a story about them.

Reading. V. Zotov “Forest Mosaic”, D. Kaigorodov “Gifts of a Tree”, “How many years does a tree live?”, “Child of May”, N. Sladkov “Warm trunks”, “Attachment oak”, “Lost copses”, A. Lopatina “The Wisdom of a Tree”, “The Life of a Tree”, “Who Laughs, Who Tears”, “The Artist and the Maple”, “The Mischievous Maple”, “The Magic Rowan”, “ Pansies”, N. Osipov “Underground anchors”, M. Skrebtsova “How lightning met an oak tree”, “Talking birch tree”, “Little birch tree”, “Golden tree”, “Lipkin’s gifts”, “Aspen and the breeze”, “Good bird cherry” "", "Snowflake Dress", "Ivushkin's Gift", "Miracle Tree", "Inner Beauty", "Magic Leaves", "Spirits of Spring", "Lungwort and the Bumblebee", "Goose Onion", Yu. Dmitriev "How they move oaks”, S. Shkolnikova “Poplar fluff”.

Work from drawings. Let's look at the plants growing in parks, highlighting trees, shrubs, and herbs among them. During our walk we will find the distinctive features of these groups of plants. Note that the tree has one powerful trunk, and the bush has several thin trunks growing from a common root.

We will help children learn poems about plants and animals that live in the park.

Part I. Invitation to the party

Goals: using the ability to compose a story based on a drawing; speech development (use of assumption constructions).

Work based on the drawing “Mysterious letter”. The teacher draws the children's attention to the fact that someone has sent a letter. There is a drawing in the envelope. It depicts children and a teacher. They go to the park. There they are met by trees, birds and insects.

Based on questions or independently, children will “read” the letter. Let's discuss who sent us this letter and why?

The teacher suggests that someone is inviting us to visit? Which of the park's inhabitants sent this letter?

Learning task. Find out who lives and what grows in the park.

Stories based on the drawing “My tree”. Children watching the trees of the park tell their stories. They “report” on what is currently happening to their trees. Perhaps they are blooming, or leaves are appearing on them, or rooks have built nests on their branches, etc.

Let's read to the children about those trees that have not yet fallen into the sphere of interest of our young observers.

Reading. N. Sladkov “Willow Feast”. Children need to listen carefully and try to find the answer to the questions: what insects can we find in the park? Where should you look for them?

“The willow tree has bloomed—there are guests from all sides. The bushes and trees are still bare and gray; the willow among them is like a bouquet, and not simple, but golden. Each new lamb is a fluffy yellow chick: it sits and glows. If you touch it with your finger, your finger will turn yellow. If you click, golden smoke will steam away. Smell it - honey.

The guests are rushing to the feast. The bumblebee arrived - clumsy, furry like a bear. He got excited, tossed and turned, and got covered in pollen.

The ants came running: lean, fast, hungry. They pounced on the pollen, and their bellies swelled up like barrels. Just look, the rims on their bellies will burst.

The mosquitoes arrived: their legs were a handful, their wings were flickering. Tiny helicopters. Some bugs are crawling around. The flies are buzzing. Butterflies spread their wings. The hornet on mica wings is striped, angry and hungry like a tiger.

Everyone is buzzing and in a hurry: the willow will turn green - the feast will end. It will turn green and get lost among the green bushes. Go find her then!

And now it’s like a golden bouquet.”

An outdoor game to develop attention: “That tree, that bush, that grass.” Children walk along a “path” lined with skipping ropes. If the teacher says the name of the tree, they need to raise their hands up, stand on their toes, and stretch. If the name of a bush is heard, children stretch their arms forward, then spread them far to the sides. Having heard the name of a herbaceous plant, children need to sit down and move on with a “goose step”.

Part II. “Riddles grow in the park, riddles live there!”

Goals: developing the ability to solve various types of riddles using new information.

Let's check if everything important information We remembered about the plants of the park. Children are offered riddles about trees, birds and insects that can be found in the park, and color images of its inhabitants.

Without caring about the weather,

He walks around in a white sundress,

And on one of the warm days

May gives her earrings. (Birch.)

It's like a snow globe is white,

In the spring it bloomed,

It gave off a delicate scent.

And when the time has come,

At once she became

The whole berry is black. (Bird cherry.)

I crawled out of the little barrel,

Sent roots and grew up,

I have become tall and mighty,

I'm not afraid of thunderstorms or clouds.

I feed the boars and the squirrels -

It’s okay that my fruit is small. (Oak)

Here is the plant in front of us.

Look, he has, my friend,

Dad - with red earrings,

Mom - with a white beard! (Poplar.)

Even at night there is an ant

Will not miss his home:

Path-path until dawn

Lanterns illuminate.

On large pillars in a row

White lamps are hanging. (Lilies of the valley.)

A thin stem near the path.

At the end of it are earrings.

There are leaves on the ground -

Small bursts.

He is a loyal friend to the guys.

Treats wounds of legs and arms. (Plantain.)

Housewife

Flying over the lawn

Will fuss over the flower -

He will share the honey. (Bee.)

In the fall it will get stuck in the crack,

And in the spring it will buzz and wake up. (Insect: fly, beetle.)

From the branch to the path,

From grass to blade of grass

The spring jumps

Green back. (Grasshopper.)

Winged fashionista,

The dress is striped.

Although small in stature,

If he bites, it will be bad. (Wasp.)

A lantern is burning on a blade of grass,

He tells his friends:

“Come and have tea with me” -

And the night light does not go out all night. (Firefly.)

He heads towards the flower.

Refills with fuel:

Thin hose-proboscis

Climbs into a flower.

The best fuel -

Flower sweet juice!

Having outlined the exact route

From sunny lands,

Flying to the land of flowers

Furry fat... (bumblebee).

Look at the good guys:

Cheerful and lively,

Dragging from all over

Material for construction.

One suddenly stumbled

Under a heavy burden

And a friend rushes to the rescue -

The people here are good!

Without a job, for the life of me

Can't live... (ant).

It will easily fly from the flower.

As soon as spring blooms.

Two wings - two petals,

She herself is like a flower. (Butterfly.)

The back is greenish,

The belly is yellowish,

Little black cap

And a strip of scarf. (Tit.)

Black, agile,

Shouts: “Krack!”

Worms are the enemy. (Rook.)

In the trees in spring

A village has been built.

As the wind begins -

The trees are all swaying.

The trees are swaying

And with them the village. (Bird nests, such as rookery.)

A happy house on a pole

With a small round window.

So that the children fall asleep

The house is shaking in the wind.

Father sings on the porch -

He is both a pilot and a singer. (Birdhouse and starling.)

Like birds in the spring, they care -

Hunting for worms and beetles.

The fellows are waiting for lunch -

Yellowmouths... (chicks).

Summary of the lesson. Let's celebrate the children's successes and focus their attention on the fact that they obtained most of the information themselves by observing their trees. We will also highlight interesting collaborations children and parents, as well as independently completed tasks.

Now you can go to the park. We have gifts with us - wonderful poems and... chalk diluted in water.

Follow-up work

How beautiful it is in the park in spring! How trees, shrubs, grasses, birds, animals and insects live together here in harmony. Walking around the park, we will find familiar plants and animals, and get to know its other inhabitants. We will read them poems prepared especially for the visit.

We invite the children to take part in whitewashing the trees, protecting them from pests and too hot sun.
