The result of the lesson: (assessment of the work of children)

What did we talk about today?

When is the harvest?

Where do vegetables grow?

In summer, a garden is like a city!

It has a hundred thousand citizens:

Tomato, peas, cabbage,

Zucchini and eggplant!

Preschool childhood is the initial stage in the formation of a person's personality, his values ​​of orientation in the world around him. During this period, a positive attitude towards nature, towards oneself and the people around is laid.

A consciously correct attitude to nature is based on the sensory perception of nature, emotional attitude towards it and knowledge about the features of life, growth and development of individual living beings. The presence of a garden in a kindergarten contributes to the direct contact of the child with objects of nature, observation and practical activities for caring for plants.

A garden in kindergarten is a very pleasant experience, especially in spring, when you want to look at the colors of greenery or the first spring flowers. There is nothing more pleasant than creating a real garden under the windows of a kindergarten. The garden in kindergarten contributes to the development of curiosity and observation in children, and this helps to better understand plant life. He is able to expand children's ideas about plants as living organisms, about the conditions necessary for growth and development, develop aesthetic feelings, the ability to enjoy the beauty of grown plants and the results of their work. And how much joy the first plantings and shoots bring to children.

The purpose of educational activities with children in the garden is to expand and generalize knowledge about cultivated garden plants that can be grown, cared for, and awareness of the importance of vegetables in human life.

And we set ourselves the following tasks:

Expand and clarify children's ideas about vegetables, garden plants

To teach how to care for plants, to give a visual representation to children about the need for light, heat, soil moisture for plant growth

Develop children's cognitive and creative abilities

To form a consciously correct attitude to the nature of the native land, to human labor.

Collective work in the garden teaches children to be responsible, develops labor skills, unites children, and by the middle of summer they can see the fruits of their labor.

As a result, everyone experiences great pleasure, and children gain confidence in their abilities and the conviction that they are doing real work, bringing joy to the people around them.

So, what can children do in the garden? How to help them?

Soil cultivation. Adults do the first spring tillage. It is done as early as possible. Children dig a second time. Digging is available only to children of older preschool age. Not all children should be involved in digging, but in subgroups. The teacher announces in detail how to use a shovel correctly, how to turn the earth over. . After digging, the children take part in laying out the beds, leveling the beds with a rake.

Sowing seeds. We plant pumpkin, beets, radishes, peas, beans, dill, lettuce, carrots and potatoes with seeds. Children in all groups can sow seeds. But first you should water the beds, sow only in damp soil. It is necessary to emotionally tell that life is embedded in such a small seed, that in the presence of heat, moisture, a sprout will hatch from the seed. It is necessary in the group to consider germinated seeds, sprouts. Children need to be told what they will plant. In groups, we grow seedlings of zucchini, cabbage, pepper, eggplant, cucumbers.

Loosening. This can be done by older children. The teacher draws the attention of the children to the resulting crust. Explains why this is happening. Using a pointed stick, he shows how to loosen the soil. The teacher offers 2-3 children to show how they loosen. The teacher arranges the children, distributes plots and the children work. The frequency of loosening depends on the soil and weather. While loosening, children watch the plants. Nothing should go unnoticed. The teacher corrects the erroneous ideas of children about certain phenomena: about the benefits of worms, why there are caterpillars in the ground, etc.

Weeding. It is carried out mainly with children of the senior and preparatory groups. Children of the older group are involved in weeding in the second half of summer, when the plants get stronger.

In the older group, the first acquaintance with weeds is made in class. The teacher draws the attention of the children that the seedlings are not the same. He offers to compare them in terms of leaf shape, color, they do not grow in rows, but randomly. The teacher explains that it is a weed. It takes a lot of light, moisture, sun from planted plants, so it needs to be pulled out. The teacher teaches how to pull out weeds (swing at the root and tear at the root with the root). Weeding contributes to the development of attention, responsibility for the task assigned, endurance, the ability to overcome difficulties.

Watering. All children do watering. But a condition is necessary (buckets, watering cans). It is good to have a well for watering (dig in a barrel, block it with boards, it is good to put a grate for the feet so that the children do not wet their feet). Adults bring water to babies. These children are more interested in the process of watering (pouring water). It is necessary to show the children how to hold a watering can, where to pour water, from what height.

In the middle group, the teacher pays attention to the plants that they grow well from watering. It is very important to teach every child how to properly hold a watering can.

In the older group, the first watering is carried out as a lesson. Each child is given a task. The teacher explains that the earth cannot be wetted from one time, so you need to water one place three times.

In the preparatory group, you need to have a conversation about the importance of watering in the life of plants.

Harvesting- the most joyful period, it brings a lot of pleasure and joy to children. Vegetables, berries must be collected by children. How fun and interesting to immediately collect radishes, wash and eat them. Therefore, it is necessary to plant it so much that each child has enough. Harvesting is carried out by children of all groups. Toddlers can easily pull out turnips or radishes, you just need to show how to pick vegetables. It would be nice to let the kids pull out a big turnip like in a fairy tale. Harvesting can be done in different ways, depending on what kind of crop. Harvesting also includes the collection of colored seeds. This is a very interesting activity, because. seeds ripen in various pods, boxes, heads. At the same time, children will learn a lot of interesting things. Seed collection is carried out only by children of the senior and preparatory groups.

Thus, a garden in kindergarten is one of the conditions that is necessary for the implementation of environmental education of preschoolers.

Teacher of MDOU No. 4 Stepanova T.A.

Senior teacherSusanova A.V.

You can tell the children about how fruits and vegetables grow and ripen, why potatoes grow in the ground, but apples do not. When harvesting with your children, teach them about how food is prepared from the harvested crops and why it is important to be very careful about the environment. You can even arrange a field lesson in biology, history, geography, or even math.

What seeds should be collected?

Not all seeds ripen equally well, so it is important to teach your child to choose dense seed pods. Proper collection of seeds will save on buying new ones next season. You can do this all summer and until late autumn while walking in the forest, on a pond or in a summer cottage.

How to collect seeds?

Together with your child, prepare several plastic bags, paper envelopes or plastic boxes for seeds and label each one depending on what seeds you will collect there.

Have your child carefully remove the seeds from the flowers and place them on a paper towel or newspaper to dry. After the seeds have dried, place them in pre-prepared envelopes, bags or containers. Make sure all containers are labeled and tightly closed, then place them in a cool and dry place. Place several packets of moisture-retaining material on bags or containers to keep the seeds dry. Every 5-6 months, they need to be sprinkled with seeds to extend the shelf life to 3 years.

How to use the collected seeds?

Collected seeds can be used for board games, crafts, or added to molding. Pumpkin or sunflower seeds, for example, can to eat, fried in a pan or dried in the oven.

Seeds are useful for studying mathematics. Arrange them in handfuls and ask the baby to count how many seeds are in each of them, after that you can pick up a few seeds from one pile and ask them to count how many are left.

You can also mix several types of seeds and ask your child to separate them by type. This is good for developing fine motor skills, attention and perseverance.

From the collected seeds, you can make little men, houses, cars, and even draw pictures. Let the child experiment and decide for himself what he wants to do.

Based on materials from www.gardeningknowhow.com

Harvesting vegetables at our summer cottage. This is a very interesting and exciting activity, which is why we do it together.

Along with the child's possible help in harvesting, we will try to turn this work into exciting games. Let's start by picking carrots.

It is very interesting to consider carrots, because there is not a single repeating carrot in the garden. They are all different, although they grew on the same bed from similar seeds from one bag. In this bunch of carrots there are small ones, and large ones, and large ones, and small ones, and crooked ones, and straight ones, and smooth ones, and rough ones, etc. and so on.

See how many different concepts a child can master when looking at a simple carrot? A child can be asked to show the longest, or the thinnest, or the most curved or ...

Here are carrots that wanted to stand out from the general mass of their own kind. Let's dream together - why are these carrots so special?

In these carrots, several "sisters" are collected. Maybe it was close for them to grow in the earth, they united and began to live together as friendly families?

These carrots vary in thickness. The carrots grew close together and didn't have much room to grow, which is why they are so thin...

But this carrot grew alone, there were no other carrots nearby. Or maybe she was bored alone, and she decided to get closer to her girlfriends and that's why she's so fat? And these carrots are "hairy" and with long roots. Or maybe these carrots were watered a lot and they took root?

And this carrot confused the bottom with the top - it is thicker at the bottom than at the top. And these are carrot coquettes. To please others, they began to play sports. And now they have wonderful figures with a thin waist.

What a crooked left carrot! Why? Maybe she stumbled upon an obstacle (a stone, a hard piece of earth, etc.)? And then she rounded this obstacle and continued her growth.

But nothing interfered with other carrots during growth. Therefore, they were even and grew quietly until the moment they were pulled out of the ground.

We collect beets and potatoes

Beets are also not the same. See how different they are.

Among the potatoes, you can also find unusual tubers and see various animals and birds in them.
