PROJECT IN THE SENIOR GROUP “WINTERING BIRDS” project (senior group)


Project “Wintering Birds”

Relevance.

In modern conditions, the problem of environmental education of preschool children becomes particularly acute and relevant. It is during preschool childhood that the beginnings of ecological culture are formed. Therefore, it is very important to awaken children’s interest in living nature, cultivate a love for it, and teach them to take care of the world around them.

Winter time is not only about cheerful holidays, lively slides and desperate snowball fights, but also severe frosts with a piercing wind. During the cold season, wintering birds face vital questions: how to feed themselves. The available food is becoming significantly less, but the need for it is increasing. Sometimes natural food becomes practically unavailable, so many birds cannot survive the winter and die.

Our task is to introduce children to the birds wintering in our area, their species and characteristics; teach how to take care of birds and help them in the cold winter.

Stage 3 - final

— Registration of project results in the form of a presentation,

— presentation of a report on the “Help the Birds!” campaign

Report on the event “Help the Birds!”

The action was attended by: children of the preparatory group, senior teacher Puzanova I.N., teacher Solovyova N.V., parents of students.

On the territory of the preschool educational institution, 14 feeders were hung, made by parents from various materials: wooden feeder houses, feeders made from boxes, from plastic bottles.

During the campaign, the following work was carried out:

  • Daily feeding of birds;
  • Observing their behavior;
  • Using different feeds;
  • Accounting for the number of birds and their species.

Tits were the first to begin mastering the feeders. At first they approached the feeders with caution and looked around for a long time, but gradually they got used to it and stopped being afraid of children. The sparrows flew in in a small flock. At the feeder they fight, scream, and argue over food. If tits flew to the feeder, the sparrows flew away, as if giving way to them. Bullfinches flew to the feeder. They behaved warily and flew away at the slightest approach of the children. Magpies and crows flew in alone and did not sit on the feeders. They collected food below, under the feeders. A flock of pigeons flew in. They collected food under feeding troughs, and sometimes approached the children at a distance of up to two meters. Waxwings flew to the site in the absence of children and did not sit on the feeders.

During the event the following people flew to the feeders:

  • Tits – 30;
  • Bullfinches – 4;
  • Sparrows – 15;
  • Crows – 11;
  • Pigeons – 14;
  • Waxwings – 13;
  • Magpies - 7.

As a result of the work, the children learned:

  • What types of birds remain to spend the winter in our area, and which ones fly to us for the winter;
  • How to distinguish birds by color;
  • What food do birds prefer?

The following conclusions were drawn:

  • Birds become noticeable and more active as the weather warms up; the brighter the sun shines, the more birds there are on the street, the more active they are;
  • Birds do not fly on windy days;
  • As food, pigeons and sparrows prefer seeds, and tits prefer lard;
  • Sparrows, pigeons, waxwings fly in flocks, tits in 3-4 groups, magpies, crows - alone;
  • 7 species of birds visited the feeder;
  • During the project, the birds have become accustomed to receiving food, so feeding must be continued.

Statement of the problem, entering into a game situation.

Educator: Children, today a bird, a rock dove, knocked on our window with its beak. I really love birds and study their language, so I understood what the dove said.

He asked to eat something, because in the cold winter it is very difficult to find food. I poured him a handful of seeds and the dove cooed happily. He told me that there were still a lot of birds outside that were very cold and hungry.

Are you ready to feed them? But we must remember that each bird prefers its own food.

Do you think we can figure out: how to distinguish one bird from another, where they live, what they eat, how and where to feed them?

Discussion of the problem of accepting a task.

Educator: What should you do to learn more about wintering birds?

Children: (answer options) Read books, look at: albums, postcards and magazines, draw wintering birds, make crafts, collect collections of pictures and drawings. Learn new things in classes, on hikes and excursions.
