Planting, sowing, and harvesting are carried out with children.

In a corner of nature, children examine plants and, together with the teacher, master the skills of caring for them.

5) Experimental search activities of children.

Experimental-search activity is understood as the joint work of the teacher and children, aimed at solving cognitive problems that arise in educational activities, in everyday life, in play and work, in the process of learning about the world. Search activity presupposes high activity and independence of children, the discovery of new knowledge and ways of knowing.

The search activity ends with an analysis of the results obtained during the inspection and the formulation of conclusions.

2. Methods of environmental education.

Teaching methods are ways of joint activities between the teacher and children, during which the formation of knowledge, abilities and skills, as well as attitudes towards the world around them, is carried out. In the middle group, various teaching methods are used: visual, practical, verbal.

Towards visual methods

include observation, examination of paintings, demonstration of models, films, filmstrips, and transparencies.

Practical methods -

This is a game, elementary experiments and simulation.

Verbal methods

- these are stories from the teacher and children, reading works of art about nature, conversations.

When working to introduce children to nature, it is necessary to use different methods in a complex and correctly combine them with each other.

1) Observation

Observation is a specially organized by the teacher, purposeful, more or less long-term and systematic, active perception by children of objects and natural phenomena. The purpose of observation can be the assimilation of various knowledge - establishing the properties and qualities, structure and external structure of objects, the reasons for the change and development of objects (plants, animals), seasonal phenomena.

.

The observation method in introducing children to nature is the main one. The need and significance of its use are associated, first of all, with the nature of the knowledge available to children of middle preschool age.

Observation allows children to show nature in natural conditions in all its diversity, in the simplest, clearly presented relationships. The systematic use of observation in getting to know nature teaches children to look closely, notice its features and leads to the development of observation, and therefore, the solution of one of the most important tasks of mental education.

Observation of nature is an inexhaustible source of aesthetic impressions and emotional impact on children. In the middle group, different types of observation are used. To form in children ideas about the diversity of plants and animals, objects of inanimate nature, recognition of the characteristics of certain objects, their properties, signs, recognizing observation is used. It ensures that children accumulate vivid, living knowledge about nature.
