Short-term project for older children with presentation
Project “White-trunked Beauty” (senior group, short-term)
Author: Olesya Petrovna Chistyakova, teacher at the Moscow State Preschool Educational Institution, general development kindergarten “Cornflower” Motive: Love for nature is a feeling that includes emotional responsiveness, a sustainable interest in nature and the desire to protect and increase natural resources. But children often see adults violating basic standards of behavior in recreational areas, leaving trash, playing loud music, carving inscriptions on tree trunks, and hurting homeless animals. Observing the children, we noticed that they care about animals, are interested in the plant world, look at books about nature, about plants, share their impressions, ask about trees and flowers. Model of 3 questions: What do we know about this?
What do we want to know? How will we know? Birch is a tree.
Birch trees decorate the street. You can hide from the heat. The birch is beautiful. Birds love to sit on a birch tree. In summer it is cool under the birch tree, there is a breeze. The birch is beautiful. You can hide from the sun. Moves the leaves. Thin branches, white trunk. What does it eat? Where does he get water? Why does everyone love birch? Why are trees needed? What benefits do trees provide? Why is it cool under a birch tree? Why do birds love birch trees? What can be made from birch? Can a birch tree speak? Does birch heal? Let's ask the teacher. I'll ask my grandmother. Let's read it in the book. We find out from the encyclopedia. The teacher will tell you. Let's read it in the book. Let's read it in the book. I'll ask dad. I'll ask the teacher. Let's read it in the encyclopedia. Conclusions: 1. Children show great interest in nature.

Let's imagine that the trees have disappeared. What will happen on Earth? Why might trees disappear? Teacher's story “How was birch used in ancient times?” Our ancestors used birch beams to illuminate their houses. The sick were treated with birch sap. The wheels of the cart were lubricated with tar, which was made from birch. Wooden toys, wooden sculptures, spoons were made from birch; tueskas (they carried water and kvass), baskets for berries and mushrooms were made from birch bark. They wrote on birch bark. Nowadays, birch is used in construction, furniture, plywood, skis are made from it, yellow and green paint is made from birch leaves, and medicines are made from the buds. Conversation “The relationship of wood with living and inanimate nature” Program content. Deepen your understanding of the relationships between living and inanimate nature and the factors that influence the life of birch. - Can a tree live without light? (Light, like an artist, colors the leaves green.) - Does the birch grow in an open or shaded place? - Can a tree live without heat? (The beginning of the appearance of leaves on trees depends on the amount of heat.) - What happens to trees in winter? (In winter, trees do not grow - they go into sleep. And the trees are protected from the cold by cork fabric, which does not allow either water or air to pass out.) - What else can’t trees live without? (Without water, they drink water like people. The tree receives water from rain, from melt water, drinks it from the ground - the soil.) - Trees, like us, must breathe. They breathe through small holes on the leaves, so small that they are invisible.) - Trees need clean air: they die from dirty air. At the same time, the trees themselves purify the air, making it suitable for humans and other living beings. —Does a tree need birds? (Birds eat various insects that can harm the tree.) - The wind carries birch seeds. — Earthworms participate in the formation of soil, “pass” lumps of earth and dry leaves through themselves, loosen the soil, making it suitable for the development of plants. - Why do trees get sick? (This means that harmful insects have settled on the bark. This can be seen if you look at the reverse side of the bark - the passages made by pests.) - How can you determine the age of a birch tree? (On the bark: the older the tree, the harder and thicker the bark, so old trees can withstand frosts more easily. Summary of a complex lesson in the senior group “I love Russian birch” Program content: continue to develop children’s interest in their native nature; generalize knowledge about birch; expand ideas children about the image of the birch in poetry, music, works of fine art; to cultivate a love for the Russian birch. Material for the lesson: Illustration with the image of a birch. A tape recorder with an audio recording of the song “There was a birch tree in the field” (Russian folk song), “Seasons” by P. I. Tchaikovsky. Reproductions of paintings by I. Levitan "Spring. Big Water", "Golden Autumn", K. Juno "March Sun". I. Grabar "February Azure", I. Shishkin "Wilderness". Lesson progress Riddle :
Worth Alenka, green scarf, Slim waist, white sundress. (Birch) The teacher suggests looking at an illustration of a birch. - How can we recognize a birch at any time of the year? (Only a birch has a white trunk.) - What do people call a birch? (Russian, white-trunked, curly, elegant, golden, beloved.) - What kind of leaves does a birch tree have? (Green, emerald, sticky, golden.) - Of all the trees in the Russian forest, our birch is the cutest. The light birch groves are nice and clean. White trunks are covered with thin birch bark. There is a special day in Russian nature when young leaves begin to bloom on birch trees. You will enter the forest and gasp with joy: the forest edges are covered with a gentle green haze. What a beauty! What bliss! — With whom in Rus' was the beautiful birch compared? (With a girl who has a thin, flexible waist, with a bride.) - In June, the holiday of the “Russian Birch” was celebrated in Rus'. In the morning, a bright, colorful crowd headed towards the birch grove. The girls chose one of the birch trees and decorated it, tied colored rags and ribbons to the branches, hung gingerbread cookies and sweets. Round dances were performed around, people danced, and games were played. — Many poems and songs have been written about the white-trunked beauty. Listening to the Russian folk song “There was a birch tree in the field.” - Now let's read poems about birch. Reading poems: A. Prokofiev “I love the Russian birch tree”, S. Yesenin “White birch tree”. — Many talented landscape artists captured the birch tree in their paintings. It is beautiful in its own way at different times of the year! I invite children to look at reproductions of paintings and talk about them. — In artists’ paintings, birch trees are straight, slender, and white-trunked. - Our beautiful birch tree can predict the weather. Listen to the signs: If a lot of sap flows from a birch tree in spring, it means a rainy summer. If in the fall the birch leaves begin to turn yellow from the top, spring will be early. The birch will open its leaves in front of the alder - the summer will be dry, the alder in front of the birch will be wet. The collective application “Birch” is performed to Russian folk melodies.
