Visual agitation is one of the strongest ways of influencing when it is necessary to convey any idea, information, etc. Bright, colorful, vibrantly drawn posters are striking, strike at the living, and do not leave you indifferent. In addition, for the artist they are an excellent means of self-expression. Therefore, at school, students, as a rule, gladly take up the design of wall newspapers, thematic corners and other things.
Justification of the topic
April 22, the world community celebrates Earth Day. Various environmental events are held both by entire organizations and by individual citizens of almost all countries of the world. The holiday was established in 1970 by the UN General Assembly. In 2009, he was given official status. Its
goals and objectives are to draw people's attention to the barbaric attitude to nature, those abuses that can disrupt a fragile ecosystem and threaten the death of all life on Earth. Since then,
extra-curricular events and special environmental lessons have been held in Soviet schools, an obligatory element of which was the poster “Take care of nature!” - it should have been drawn by the students themselves. The Soviet Union has sunk into the past, but a good tradition has remained. It has been preserved not only in the Russian Federation, but also practically throughout the post-Soviet space. To this day, the poster "Take care of nature!" is an important part of the ideological and educational part of school life during the holiday.
Choose an idea
It is no coincidence that Earth Day is celebrated in the spring, when nature awakens and flourishes, giving us its beauties. Spring is associated with life, its beginning, fragile, defenseless, but beautiful. Poster "Take care of nature!" therefore, it may contain a gentle spring landscape around which the corresponding inscription is located. Let the schoolchildren draw a tree whose branches are barely leafy. Among them is a nest with birds. Above is a clear blue sky, below is a grass full of flowers. Such a poster, "Take care of nature!" I must emphasize the importance of preserving a living, natural beauty, its significance for us people.
Friendly "No!"
Another version of the image, which is offered to schoolchildren, is similar to the proof "from the contrary." What does it mean? In the center of the sheet is written in bright red, in large print the word "No!" Arrows are diverted from it in different directions, each of which will indicate a symbolic picture. One depicts the sky in puffs of smoke. On the other - a bonfire in the middle of the meadow and flames, approaching the trunks of trees. On the third - a reservoir in dark spots, on the fourth - a leg in a boot, lifted over a flower, etc. A similar poster on the theme “Take care of nature” is interesting in that it allows you to show various options for a barbaric, ownerless, cynical attitude of a person to his environment flora and fauna and condemn them.
Live Earth!
Children's creativity is remarkable primarily for its unpredictability and originality, sincerity and special genius. And the theme proposed for the drawings is so multidimensional that any student in the class will open it in his own way, and there will be no repetition! For example, such a poster "Protect the nature", the pictures on which are accompanied by poetic lines. Namely: the globe on which the outlines of continents and oceans are visible. From it upward, to the sky stretches a young tree with a lush crown. The roots of the tree, like palms, hug and hold the Earth, as if protecting from invisible danger. On both sides of the drawing, you can write quotes from the poem by Mikhail Dudin, "Spell from the Pole", better known as "Take care of the Earth ...".

Or such a picture: many children of different skin colors hold over their heads the Greek letter "theta", which became the symbol of Earth Day, as well as the holiday flag - a blue panel on which our planet is depicted. And the lines of Anatoly Poperechny from the song "Alone with Everyone." These and other posters, made with the soul, will bring many benefits in the environmental education of students.
