Methodology for introducing preschoolers to the work of adults
Features of working in a junior preschool group
In the younger group, there are no special classes to educate the attitude towards a hard worker. This problem is solved in everyday life: observing the work of adults, in art classes, when reading works of fiction, looking at paintings and illustrations for books. Thus, when organizing observations of the work of adults, the teacher each time thinks through techniques that will help children develop a friendly attitude towards the hard worker. These techniques are varied: general conversation, involvement in an adult’s activity, memorization of a separate poem, etc.[7].
For educational purposes, the teacher uses literature in which numerous images of adults (mothers, grandmothers) evoke a feeling of sympathy. Works of fiction teach us to be attentive, caring, and friendly towards other people. For example, children are read the story “My Mother” (from the series “My Family”) by the Bulgarian writer Dora Gabe. After reading this story, the teacher asks the kids to remember what words the writer uses to talk about their mother. Children are led to the answer that “mother is kind, good, cheerful, loves her children.” Then the teacher talks about mothers in general, what they do at home, at work, who they care for and how they care.
Introducing children to the work of a janitor, driver, cook, doctor, that is, those people who work directly in kindergarten and whom children know well, you can use B. Zakhoder’s poems “Driver”, “Shoemaker”, A. Kordamova during the conversation. Our doctor" (in excerpts). Children quickly remember these verses. Thanks to them, kids learn that a doctor is a kind and brave person, he helps children if they get sick. You can also talk about the kindergarten doctor, nurse, or other doctors the children know. Gradually, the kids are, as it were, “taken” outside the kindergarten and family. They learn that there are many janitors, drivers, doctors, and teachers; they work in different places. It’s good if the janitor, driver, cook, whom the children recently met, come to the group to see how the children live. The kids will be delighted by the arrival of such guests. It will cause them a new wave of positive emotions.
Thus, it is necessary to begin labor education of children in early preschool childhood. In this case, the main means should be to introduce people who are difficult for the child to know: mothers, grandmothers, grandfathers, etc.
Features of working in the middle group of kindergarten
In the middle group, work to familiarize adults with labor and cultivate a positive attitude towards workers continues. Children of this age are independent, they have more advanced work skills compared to children, their feelings and relationships are more conscious, their interest in the life around them is broader, and their understanding of the work of kindergarten staff (music worker, teacher) is richer. All this allows us to somewhat change the nature of pedagogical work, both in content and form.
In the middle group, several new topics are being developed: “About how our mothers and fathers work,” “Who works on the farm,” “About the work of people in transport professions,” “About the work of builders.” The teacher tells the children about the content of work and its social significance. However, a story about professions becomes pedagogically significant if, when explaining the content of work, the teacher focuses not on the specification of the process, but on the person, his business and personal qualities, that is, directly or through fiction, he introduces children to a person of a certain profession. At the same time, attention is drawn to how adults conscientiously and responsibly carry out their duties, how they treat the results of work and materials with care: it speaks of the kindness, friendliness, willingness to help, and cheerfulness of a working person.
When covering each topic, the teacher thinks through two aspects: familiarization with the content of work and familiarization with the business and personal qualities of a working person[8]. For example, the topic: “About the work of builders.” Program objective: To introduce children to the work of people in construction professions: mason, painter, roofer, etc. Foster interest and respect for their work. Expanding on the topic “About the work of builders,” the teacher uses the poems of A. Brodsky “My Brother” and S. Baruzdin “Who Built This House?” It is advisable to read the last poem after the children have been on an excursion to a house under construction and have gained an idea of the work of construction workers. In this case, they perceive poetry more emotionally.
Poems by S. Baruzdin “Who built this house?” similarly analyzed in the older group. For children in the middle group, it is enough to ask the question: “Who do you think built the house in which we live?” There is no need to ensure that students list all construction professions. It is especially emphasized that the house is being built quickly thanks to the friendship of the builders, and that people are happy about their new houses.
Thus, in the middle group of kindergarten, work continues to familiarize adults with labor and cultivate a positive attitude towards the worker. At the same time, it is necessary not only to acquaint children with the content of work, but also to reveal the personal qualities of a person - a worker.
