Progress of the lesson
1. Introductory part. Conversation about autumn.
Educator: Guys, guests came to our lesson today. Let's say hello to them. (Children say hello, go to the chairs, and sit down).
- Guys, I suggest you listen to music. (The musical excerpt “Autumn” by P.I. Tchaikovsky from the work “The Seasons” is played).
- Children, what time of year did this piece of music remind you of? Why? (Autumn, nature is sad, summer has gone, etc.)
- What time of year is it now? (Children's statements).
- Or maybe spring? (Children prove that it’s autumn outside. Signs of autumn).
Educator: One of the brightest and most noticeable signs of autumn is yellow strands in the foliage. Guys, which tree starts to turn yellow first? People have a lot of sayings about this. Who wants to tell? Expressions of children (“The linden tree blinked with a variegated leaf - autumn called”).
Educator: Well done, guys! They say there are two autumns? What are their names? (Children's statements: (early autumn or golden; the other - late).
Educator: Yes, children, one joyful autumn, lushly decorated with flowers, foliage, rich in harvest. The other is unsightly, covered in rags of falling leaves, sad with the quiet cry of rain, with heavy clouds in the sky. Guys, let's try to find a lot of definition words for the first golden autumn. (Children select definitions - beautiful, golden, colorful, luxurious, generous, rich in harvest, cheerful, bright, cool, etc.)
Educator: Listen to how beautifully the poet Tyutchev wrote about this nature:
There is a short but wonderful time in the original autumn. The whole day is as if it were crystal, And the evenings are radiant.
Educator: Guys, what words can you choose to describe late autumn? (Children's answers: cold, rainy, wet, crying, sad).
Educator: Well done! Guys, I offer you the game “Good - Bad”. Autumn is good because...(children's answers). This wonderful, fabulous autumn will bring both joy and sadness. And that's probably a good thing.
2. Main part. Magic transformations
Educator: Guys, do you know any fairy tales about autumn? About nature? (Children's answers). Remember the fairy tale “Autumn Girl”, which I came up with with the guys? (Children's answer). Do you want to become the heroes of this fairy tale? (Children: Yes!) Choose who you will be! (Distribution of roles).
Educator: One, two, three - sound the music, lead us into a fairy tale...
There lived a girl. Her name was autumn. She was a kind girl. The Autumn Girl made sure that there was order in her kingdom. And in this kingdom beautiful trees grew. And they all wore green dresses. The Autumn Girl decided to change her green dresses.
Autumn Girl: I will give you a colorful, bright outfit: golden, crimson, purple. And you, the Christmas tree, remain in this unusual, needle-green dress. I really like it.
Educator: It became so beautiful! The Autumn Girl was pleased with herself. She gave the trees bright, colorful dresses, and in return they gave her their smiles. And the Autumn Girl listened to the breeze whispering with the curly birch tree. She admired the hardworking rain, which more and more often washed every leaf in her kingdom. But then one day the trees became sad among themselves.
– I have the most beautiful dress: golden, shiny! - Berezka spoke.
– And I have red, beautiful! – Osinka interrupted her.
And there was such a noise! The Autumn Girl did not like this. She decided to show the debaters and asked her friend:
Autumn Girl: Wind! Wind! Rip off their beautiful, colorful dresses!
Educator: With noise and whistling, he flew into the trees. The leaves trembled. The Wind began to tear off their clothes, tear them and throw them down. The entire earth was covered with a bright carpet. And the trees remained bare. Only El was in her green dress, because she did not participate in the argument. The trees felt ashamed of their actions. And they began to ask the Autumn Girl:
Trees: Autumn Girl, please forgive us. Give us back beautiful, colorful dresses.
Autumn Girl: No! Will not forgive! I love my kingdom and the order in it.
Educator: Soon the Autumn Girl took pity on them.
Autumn Girl: Okay! I will delight you with a colorful outfit only for a few months a year. Then the Wind will blow it away.
Educator: And this was repeated every year...
3. Ecological conversation
Educator: The fairy tale is over. One, two, three - come out of the fairy tale. So we returned to kindergarten again. Guys, does this happen in nature? What is happening in nature with trees now? (Children's statement). Guys, is the fairy tale true? (Children's statements).
Educator: Guys, do you know why trees shed their leaves in the fall? (Children's statement).
Educator: In autumn, the leaves lack sunlight and warm air. They change color and fade. In the place where the petiole sits on the branch (the teacher shows the branch), a flabby belt is formed - the leaf, even in calm weather, comes off and falls to the ground. And when strong winds begin to blow, they tear the luxurious outfit from the trees. This phenomenon is called?... (Leaf fall). This is how trees and shrubs prepare for winter. In winter, trees “sleep” and food and water do not flow from the ground to the leaves. In addition, if snow lingered on the leaves, the branches could break off. (While showing a branch with leaves, the teacher draws the children’s attention to the fact that the branch was picked up from the ground, and not a tree branch was broken).
Educator: Guys, I would like to ask you another question: “Did the Autumn Girl do the right thing?” (Children's statement).
Educator: Guys, would you like to draw the heroes of this fairy tale? (The teacher thanks the children and everyone goes to draw. Music plays).
