Social and pedagogical local history project at the preschool educational institution “Nytva - my hometown”
- March 14, 2016
Conference “Project activity in an educational institution - 2016”
Nomination “Pedagogical project in a preschool institution”
“Only those who love, appreciate and respect what has been accumulated and preserved by the previous generation can love the Motherland, recognize it, and become a true patriot.”
S. Mikhalkov
Relevance of the project
During childhood, the basic qualities of a person are formed. It is especially important to imbue the receptive soul of a child with sublime human values, to generate interest in the history of Russia, his native land and city.
Love for loved ones, for kindergarten, for one’s hometown and home country, play a significant role in the development of a child’s personality. Acquaintance of children with their native land: with historical, cultural, national, geographical, natural features - forms in them such character traits that will help them become a patriot and citizen of their Motherland. After all, vivid impressions of one’s native nature and the history of one’s native city, received in childhood, often remain in a person’s memory for the rest of his life.
The basis of patriotic education is moral, aesthetic, labor, and mental education. In the process of such versatile education, the first shoots of civic-patriotic feelings arise.

Goal and work plan
We live in Lipetsk, and this is what we will talk about in our project.
We, as always, do a little more than we are asked. This time we decided not only to include photographs of the city in the project, but also to add information about the city’s coat of arms, the date of its foundation and decorate our creation with a poem.
So, here are our goals:
- Replenish your knowledge about the sights of Lipetsk.
- Create a mini-book “Hometown”.
Yes, yes, we decided to format the project in the form of a small book.
The following steps will lead us to our goals:
- Find information on the Internet about the coat of arms of Lipetsk and the date of its foundation.
- Find a beautiful poem about the city of Lipetsk on the Internet.
- Find beautiful photographs on the Internet with views of Lipetsk.
- Write descriptions for the found photographs.
- Make a mini-book.
- Present the project in class.
And a few more lines about the workbook. It also contains a couple of pages for this work.
Unlike the assignment we received in first grade where the project could be completed directly in the workbook, this time the workbook is designed for a different purpose.
On its pages, children are invited to post:
- basic materials on the project (photos, background information);
- write down a plan for speaking at a presentation;
- evaluate your work and express gratitude to those who helped make the project.
We begin!
Textbook assignment
So, on the page with the project, the authors of the textbook tell us about Seryozha and Nadya; most likely, they are brother and sister. The children live in Moscow - this is their hometown.
They walked with their parents around Moscow and photographed various beauties. Their photographs are given as an example on the pages of the textbook.
So we are invited to do the same. Go and walk around your hometown with a camera in your hands, take photos. And then use these photographs to create a project.
That’s what it says: “Prepare a photo story about your hometown (village).”
The question immediately arises: “How to formalize it?” And here is the answer: “It can be designed in the form of a book, a stand, a wall newspaper.”
In general, everything is clear. We can start. As usual, we start by setting a goal and developing a work plan.
