Most parents underestimate the importance of walking in the lives of children. Fresh air, the sun and communication with children are the main result, according to mothers and fathers, from street walks. However, in the preschool educational institution in each group there is a whole file of walks! In the second younger group, where the children are only 3-4 years old, pedagogical material is also collected.
The general scheme of walks
The educator faces more global tasks than just taking a walk with the children. Each walk is subject to a specific topic and includes 4 points:
- observation;
- role-playing game;
- physical activity;
- labor activity.
Walking topics are closely related to the curriculum. For example, a file cabinet for walks of the second younger group in the fall includes getting to know the birds. Then they will sculpt a bird on a sculpture, read books about wintering and select games on this topic.
In accordance with the example, the purpose of observation will be to get acquainted with the birds in the kindergarten. The educator should not only talk about them, but also draw the attention of children to body parts, food, movements. It is the behavior of birds that is played in outdoor games and in physical education (“Walk like ducks,” “Jump like little sparrows”).
Regardless of which author the walk-in file in the second younger group belongs to, its content includes role-playing games. They help children to feel the situation of birds when a predator hunts for them or there is not enough food in the winter. Therefore, the final step will be hanging the feeders and constant feeding of birds.
How to make a walk plan
On sale there are special training books with a file of walks for each group for every day. However, it is inconvenient for teachers to work with the book, so they compose special cards that briefly state the purpose and objectives of the walk, the names of the games, a description of the labor activity, and external material.
For novice teachers, a walk file in the second younger group is a cheat sheet. But so that children do not scatter all over the place, educators prescribe a detailed summary of the lesson, also selecting poems, signs, nursery rhymes, and riddles.
The teacher pays more attention to the development of observation in children and their speech activity, paying attention to hyperbole, comparisons, epithets, descriptive adjectives (violent winds, red sun). Please note that each institution has its own educational standard and program, in accordance with which the entire pedagogical process is built.
What are the goals of the walk file cabinet?
The second younger group walks twice a day. The theme of the walk can be single for the whole day or adjacent. For example, to see the differences between the morning and evening sun, or in the morning to study the properties of sand, and in the evening to watch the birds.
Walking in this age group solves the following tasks:
- study of the features of each season;
- distinguishing between animals, birds, insects, plants that are in the territory of the preschool educational institution;
- enrichment of active vocabulary;
- development of attentiveness and observation;
- the formation of logical operations (reasoning, inference, generalization, analysis, etc.);
- consolidation of physical and labor skills.
Card file for walks in the second younger group allows you to change places in case of changing weather conditions. For example, in the evening it was planned to observe how the flowers prepare for bed, and because of the rain, all classes are adjusted. Thanks to walks, children quickly consolidate their knowledge and can amaze parents with their observations!
