Development of a project on tolerance in preschool educational institutions

A project is a form of organizing children’s cognitive activity that involves a comprehensive study of a topic. A short-term project on developing tolerance can be carried out during a theme week in November, or can be carried out by a teacher in the second half of the year.

Requirements for conducting a project in kindergarten:

• formulation of the topic and current tasks for its study,
• determination of forms of study,
• final work.

During the project with children 2–5 years old, the teacher voices and records all the data. Older preschoolers are encouraged to independently think through the project, possible ways to study issues of tolerance, and put forward ideas for the final event.

For primary and secondary preschoolers, the final work can be presented as an exhibition of drawings on the topic of tolerance

The project will involve various types of children's activities:

• playroom: conducting outdoor games in the gym and on a walk,
• independent activity in the play corner,
• didactic and board games,

Learning poems and songs is one of the stages of the tolerance project

Individual projects to develop tolerance can be carried out with pupils aged 6–7 years. They will be relevant for children from mixed families or who are representatives of foreign countries. It is necessary to involve relatives in the project activities so that the child prepares a message for the group about the traditions in his family (and also shows photographs and interesting household items).

There are two boys in the same group (preparatory) with my son, whose families came to work in the Russian Federation from Vietnam. My son said that at the beginning of the school year, the guys brought photo albums to the group and talked about life in Vietnam. Unfortunately, the parents were not lucky enough to attend this event, but in the evening their son told us about the unknown (but delicious) banh bao, straw hats and Vietnamese whistle toys that you can eat. The teacher and parents prepared this message and the group’s introduction to the traditions of the eastern country for Vietnam’s Independence Day (September 2).

Collective crafts within the framework of the project on tolerance are relevant: they remind us that we have equal opportunities and together we will make the world a better place

Examples of relevant topics for projects on teaching tolerance in preschoolers:

• "A fairy tale teaches you how to live"
• "Calendar of folk signs"
• "Traveling the World"
• “How to celebrate the New Year in different countries”
• "How to help your neighbor."

Recently, kindergartens have been joining charity events to raise funds for the benefit of those in need. Still, it is recommended that children be taught such activities not by collecting coins. You can announce a collection of toys and clothes for orphanages and hospitals. Our kindergarten participates in the ongoing project “Good Caps”: children and parents collect plastic caps from bottles and food bags, then they are taken for recycling, and the proceeds are transferred to a charity foundation.

Collecting recyclable materials for charity inspires children to do good deeds
