Middle group of kindergarten: image of a pupil
At this age the child is fully formed. Each has its own character, certain preferences and tastes. Four-year-old children are very active and want to make many friends. Often their activity confuses not only educators, but also parents. Children of four years old practically conquer one height after another. Today it was the back of the sofa, tomorrow it was the window sill, then a heated towel rail in the bathroom, a computer desk. Children want to explore everything. Often such actions are destructive. It is at such moments that many parents begin to send their children to kindergarten groups, where the children’s activities are filled with communication with peers and a variety of activities in which they can release their energy.
Features of the middle group
In the activities of four-year-old children, an important place is occupied by teaching correct behavior at home and in public places. At the same time, they develop organization and responsibility. Teachers explain to children what to do in certain situations and what not to do. During classes and in free activities, the teacher works to develop the creative abilities of pupils in the middle group of the kindergarten.

Lesson summary for the middle group “Time, parts of the day”
Progress of the lesson
Children sit at tables, in front of them on an easel is a picture of Dunno and a toy, old Lesovik with a clock..
Educator: Guys, Dunno needs your help today. He went to visit the Guardian of Time, an old forest man, and could not answer a single question correctly. The dwarf wizard got angry and bewitched him. Can we help you disenchant Dunno? Shall we answer the Time Keeper's quests?
Children: Yes!
Educator: So, the first task is that a day consists of several parts, and each of them has its own name. Name and show the parts of the day.
Individual responses of children based on demonstration material.
Children: Morning, afternoon, evening, night.
Educator: How many are there in total?
Children: Four.
Educator: Well done, you completed the first task correctly. The second task is what in nature can tell us what part of the day has arrived? To complete this task we will use a diagram of the location of the Sun.
Children: - Morning, because the Sun is rising.
— Day, since the Sun is high in the sky.
- Evening, the sun is setting.
— Night, stars and the Moon appear in the sky.
Educator: And you coped with this task too! Children, not only the Sun and celestial bodies help determine the part of the day, but also what a person does. Therefore, the third task of the gnome wizard will be the game “When does this happen?”
Questions for children: What does a person do in the morning? (Wakes up, washes, does exercises, has breakfast). During the day? (Works, has lunch, walks). In the evening? (Returns from work, has dinner, goes to bed). At night? (Sleeping). Answers are accepted - none are correct. And now, the Time Keeper tells me that it’s time to relax, but with benefit!
Outdoor game "Geometric jumping rope"
(Two speed teams jump only on given geometric shapes laid out on the floor in the form of a chain). We played and sat down at the tables.
Educator: The next task game is called “Finish the sentence”:
— We have breakfast in the morning, and in the evening we .... (have dinner).
- We sleep at night, and in the morning... (we wake up).
- We play during the day, and at night... (sleep).
— The sun shines during the day, and the Moon ... (at night).
Well done, you did it! And the last task of the Time Keeper: two teams receive cards depicting parts of the day and collect a circle of parts of the day at speed, observing the strict order of their sequence, one after another.
Children in two teams at tables assemble a circle of parts of the day from cut-out pictures.
Educator: Well done to both teams, you completed all the tasks! The Time Keeper is ready to cast a spell on Dunno! Close your eyes!
The children close their eyes, the teacher removes the picture with the image of Dunno and takes out the Dunno doll.
Educator: Open your eyes! Here is Dunno, he thanks you for your help and good knowledge. And in parting I would like to wish you:
Morning afternoon Evening Night
They ran away for a day.
So as not to regret a day,
We need to take care of every hour!
Save time and knowledge! Goodbye!
Application:
Speech development
The middle group of kindergarten involves planning the activities of the teacher in such a way as to give children basic knowledge of sounds and syllables, as well as sentences. In stories from personal experience, children are encouraged to use not only direct but also indirect speech. Attention is paid to ensuring that children actively use different types of complex sentences when communicating. The middle group of kindergarten involves developing skills in retelling literary works with simple plots.
Educational, developmental and training tasks
The functions of a preschool teacher are varied. Among the main ones I would like to note is ensuring the physical development of children. The teacher must promptly teach children to perform basic movements. Particular attention is paid to the formation of basic cultural and hygienic skills. The middle group of kindergarten assumes a daily routine that harmoniously fits the tasks of developing the cognitive activity of pupils. The work of a teacher involves expanding children's knowledge about people, phenomena and objects. He also teaches how to identify the features of objects through sensory examination, elementary analysis and comparison.
What does a teacher teach four-year-old children?
Pupils of the middle group develop independence skills. Classes are conducted to teach them different ways of doing things. Self-service skills are gradually developed in children. Particular attention is paid to teaching game actions. All tasks can be found in the program by finding the “Middle Group” section there. Games are presented in blocks. It is indicated which of them need to be planned during physical education classes, which ones - during a walk and during free activity. Manual labor also occupies an important place in the middle group of kindergarten. During its organization, the teacher solves many educational, developmental and educational tasks. Such activities contribute to the formation of a friendly atmosphere in the team. Manual labor in the middle group is attractive to children because it provides an opportunity to show individuality and creativity. Speech development classes are organized according to a program appropriate for a given age group. Teachers also formulate children’s ideas about a healthy lifestyle. The program for a kindergarten involves planning the activities of the teacher in such a way that it contributes to the full development of each pupil. This is possible due to compliance with the regime, which is compiled for the middle group, taking into account the characteristics of its pupils.
Atmosphere in the middle group of kindergarten
Among the tasks that the teacher solves, a special place is occupied by the development of relationships between four-year-old children. He teaches them to coordinate actions, accept a common goal and strictly follow it. The teacher makes sure that every child is able to experience joy from the results of joint activities and treat everything around him kindly. It teaches kids to respond emotionally to the states of other people and to show kind feelings towards plants and animals. In the course of joint activities, the teacher develops children’s creative expressions and fosters interest in participating in various games. He also encourages students to engage in artistic activities, teaches them to experience success and joy from the fact that they managed to realize their plans.
