Presentation on the topic: “Model of a nature corner in kindergarten”

The design of a kindergarten is of great importance for the harmonious development of a child. The design of the kindergarten is a modern design of group and locker rooms, aesthetically designed stands, themed corners, walking areas, sports and music halls. For learning to be effective, a properly prepared developmental environment is very important. One of the conditions necessary for the comprehensive development and education of children in kindergarten is a nature corner equipped in the group.

The nature corner is one of the play and learning areas of the group room.

A corner of nature that fits organically into the interior will decorate the group room and allow children to conduct observations and experimental activities. In addition, preschoolers are instilled with feelings such as responsibility and care, as children learn to care for animals and plants.

Each kindergarten group has its own corner of nature. The selection and placement of objects in a corner of nature is carried out in accordance with age, guided by the Kindergarten Education Program and the Sanitary Rules and Norms. Due to the fact that Sanitary and Epidemiological Rules and Standards SanPiN 2.4.1.3049-13 clause 6.11. It is not allowed to place aquariums, animals, birds in group rooms; only plants are placed here.

Plants that are placed in a natural area must be safe. It is not allowed to have poisonous and thorny plants in a corner of nature. And, of course, daily plant care is mandatory. It is advisable to have nameplates on the flowers.

All inhabitants of a corner of nature in a kindergarten can be divided into permanent and temporary.

Permanent inhabitants of this corner of nature will be indoor plants:

• In the younger group of indoor plants, 4-5 types of unpretentious plants are recommended. These are plants that bloom beautifully and for a long time, with distinct stems, leaves and flowers. For example, ficus, primrose, balsam, coleus, geranium.
• In the middle group, the number of indoor plants increases to 5-6 species. These will be plants with different shapes and sizes of leaves. For example, asparagus, agave, chlorophytum.
• In the older group, 6-7 plant species, 2-3 specimens each, with various stems (climbing, creeping), having bulbs and corms are placed in a corner of nature. For example, tradescantia, ivy, amaryllis and others.
• In the preparatory group, 6-7 species of plants are placed in a corner of nature, which reproduce in various ways: by bulbs, viviparous. As well as flowers with different growing conditions. For example, bryophyllum, saxifrage, cyperus.

In addition, in a corner of nature in each group it is necessary to have:

• Natural vegetables and fruits, or their dummies.
• Sets of pictures depicting animals, birds, insects and more.
• Albums "Seasons"; books with illustrations depicting animals; paintings by famous artists.
• Children's drawings about nature and crafts made from natural materials.
• Material for labor. Aprons, watering cans, spatulas, loosening sticks, and rags are useful for caring for indoor plants. Brooms and dustpans - to maintain cleanliness in a corner of nature and a group.
• Equipment for experiments. Molds, funnels, shovels, sieves will be needed for playing with sand. To play with water, you can use pipettes, disposable syringes, and containers of various shapes. To make crafts, you need natural and waste materials (shells, pebbles, pine cones, acorns, chestnuts, twigs). For children in the preparatory group, working with a magnifying glass, microscope, and scales will be interesting.
• Didactic games with natural content “Who eats what?”, “Whose house?”, “Whose baby?” and others.

Filling the corner of nature with the necessary material will depend on the age of the children and the requirements of the Education Program.

A corner of nature is necessary not only for observations. It also contributes to the formation of labor skills. Already from the younger group, children are involved in carrying out individual work assignments. And from the senior group, duty in a corner of nature is introduced.

2. Pierce the bottom parts of the plastic blanks with an awl and have the child insert toothpick legs here. He will coat them with black plasticine, make small circles from it, and attach them to the cow’s body. Then you need to sculpt the horns, and the muzzle from yellow plasticine.
3. In the same way, let the child create other animals: a pig, a cat, a dog, a sheep. Then you’ll get a whole village farm, and you already know how to make kinder chickens.

To make fun snowmen, show children how to draw on Actimel bottles with a marker to create the characters' facial features. You can teach your child to knit. Cast on 2 knitting needles and show him how to knit a rectangular fabric using garter stitch. Then you need to sew it on the wrong side.

Flowers from a plastic bottle will also help turn waste into a decorative item or into an entry for a competition. Petals are cut out from this container. In order for them to bend like that, you need to hold the workpieces over the flame for a short time.
