Selection of diagnostic procedures for the development of working capacity in preschool children
During the 2008-2009 academic year, our kindergarten dealt with the problem of creating conditions for the labor development of preschoolers. The basis for planning the field of “labor education” is the comprehensive educational program “Childhood” by V.I. Loginova.
The organization of the process of creating conditions for the labor education of preschool children is regulated by regulatory documents:
- Charter of the preschool institution:
- Work profiles of nurses and specialists
- Agreement with parents
- Orders for main activities.
Labor education in the program is an obligatory part of the development of the child’s basic and creative abilities, the main means of developing a culture of interpersonal relationships. Labor education is a part of a child’s life from a very early age and is carried out consistently and systematically. The goal is to gradually develop in children (taking into account their age and gender characteristics) an interest in adult work, a desire to work, basic professional skills and pleasure from work.
In accordance with the program, labor education, including its main types: Self-care, work in everyday life and work in nature are systematically carried out from the age of two (from the first crawling group).
Through the main forms of organizing child labor - assignments, compulsory and collective work - the tasks of instilling industriousness in children are solved.
These tasks are solved by familiarizing adults with the work and direct participation of children in feasible labor activities in kindergarten and at home. The role of familiarity with the social orientation of work and its social significance is especially emphasized, and a respectful attitude towards working people is formed.
Each group determines the types and content of children’s work activities, as well as the tasks that are performed during the children’s work. Gradually, from group to group, the tasks of labor education become more complex and expanded. Starting from the second junior group, in the section “Labor in Nature” the subsection “Labor in a corner of nature” is highlighted, and in the senior group manual labor is introduced as an independent type of labor.
By organizing their work activities, our teachers ensure the comprehensive development of children, help them gain confidence in their abilities, develop the necessary skills and abilities, and teach them responsibility and independence. Our teachers try to organize work so that it activates their physical strength and mental activity, gives them pleasure and makes them feel important and competent.
Our kindergarten teachers take into account the main aspects of managing children’s work activities, namely:
- emphasize the social significance of work;
- ensure that all types of work and their content correspond to the age capabilities of children;
- strictly observe the load standards for children and protect them from overload and overexertion;
- gradually increase children's independence;
- create a favorable psychological atmosphere, develop in children a friendly attitude towards all participants in work activities, and a desire to help each other;
- Direct the attention and efforts of children to perform quality work.
In the process of each type of work, our teachers solve the problems of the comprehensive education and development of the child: spiritual, physical, moral and aesthetic. In different types of work activities, children master ways of operating with various tools, which, according to psychologists, contributes to the mental and physical development of preschoolers. They develop fine motor skills, develop manual dexterity and improve hand-eye coordination. They develop the ability to act accurately and accurately, to finish what they start, to show patience and perseverance to achieve results.
A job well done gives children a sense of satisfaction that they can do something meaningful.
The most effective methods of labor education are explanation and demonstration. No less important methods are game situations, game techniques, encouragement, and the use of poetic texts, songs, and nursery rhymes.
To achieve the goals of the labor pedagogy program, various forms of methodological work are used: seminars, consultations, exhibitions, competitions, master classes, open exhibitions, generalization of the best teaching methods.
