Event progress

Introduction by the teacher.
- Hello guys! We are happy to greet you! Today is a significant spring day on April 12. Do you know what holiday our country celebrates on April 12? That's right, ‹‹Cosmonautics Day››.
- Now we will talk about how people began to explore outer space.
Since ancient times, the mysterious, mysterious world of planets and stars has attracted the attention of people. Nowadays, we know that the Earth revolves around the Sun and around its axis, but earlier people believed that it was motionless. When our ancestors began to recognize the Earth, they imagined it as an inverted bowl, leaning on giant elephants, standing importantly on the shell of a huge tortoise. This turtle swims in the sea-ocean, and the whole world is covered with a crystal dome of the sky with many sparkling stars. (image demonstration)
Thousands of years have passed since then. People began to build ships and travel around the world, evidence gradually began to accumulate that the earth was not flat, but spherical. The famous ancient Greek scientist Aristotle Aristotle (4th century BC) was the first to use observations of lunar eclipses to prove the sphericity of the Earth: the shadow from the Earth falling on the full moon is always round. But only the ball casts a round shadow. Astronomers have proven that the Earth flies in space, revolving around the Sun, making one revolution around it per year. Then people began to build aircraft, balloons, airships, airplanes and began to fly in the air shell of the Earth (atmosphere). But people did not stop there, they were attracted by space.
- Guys, what is astronautics? (children's answers)
astronautics- a set of branches of science and technology that ensure the development of outer space and extraterrestrial objects.
- Tell me, who was the first person to fly into space? (children's answers)
Correct Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin. On April 12, 1961, a citizen of the USSR, Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin, flew into space (portrait). The name of this man is known all over the world. From childhood, Yura was fond of airplanes. He was very inquisitive and grasped everything on the fly. At the age of 15 he entered a vocational school. But his passion for aviation overtook him, and he entered the military aviation school. He was a brave, resourceful, cheerful person. He rarely got angry and did not like quarrels very much, on the contrary, he reconciled everyone with a joke and laughter. He was attentive to his comrades, helped them in everything. He was well prepared physically. April 12, 1961 on a Vostok rocket flew around our planet in 108 minutes (1 hour 68 minutes). The world held its breath. The world listened to the voice of a man flying over oceans and countries, and people in these countries repeated: "Gagarin", "Yuri", "Russia". The earth recognized a simple, charming man who paved the way to the stars.
Therefore, it is on April 12 that we celebrate ‹‹Cosmonautics Day››. Our event is dedicated to this holiday.
