Course of the lesson
1. Introductory part. Children stand in a circle. Educator. Children, tell me, what is your mood today? I'm good because I'm glad to see you. The teacher puts his palm, the children share their mood and put their palm on the teacher’s palm.
- We are visiting today... Let's greet our guests and give them a good mood.
Children imagine that they are releasing a good mood from their palms.
- Guys, but I know that today one little elephant is in a bad mood.
He was so sad that he even hid. Let's call him. - He’s not coming, let’s look for him. 2.Introduction to the topic. Children are looking for a little elephant.
— Do you want to ask him something?
Children make assumptions about the cause of their bad mood by asking leading questions (starting with children in the younger subgroup).
The teacher leads the children to the conclusion that the baby elephant is lost.
- Suggest how we can help him. —Where can a baby elephant live? (at the zoo, in toys, in fairy tales). The teacher leads the children of the older subgroup to the name of the continent of Africa.
The continent lies large, the hottest and driest.
It's summer there all year round. Who will call him for me? (Africa) Baby elephant. Yes, I remembered - my homeland is Africa. Educator. I know that you really love to travel. Which continents have you already visited? I suggest you go to Africa to help a baby elephant. But where is Africa? How can we find out (from a map, from a globe). The teacher puts a globe on the table.
- What is a globe?
(reduced model of the Earth). - Let's mark on the globe where we have already been (In the Arctic and Antarctica). — Guys, where is the continent of Africa? Show it on the globe. - How do we get to this distant country? (children offer possible answers) - Baby elephant, don’t be sad, we will help you. Let's fly by plane, relax during the flight, and answer the question: which fairy-tale characters have already visited Africa? (Dr. Aibolit). Dynamic pause "Airplane".
At this time, a musical fragment about Africa plays.
Children sit on chairs. 3. Main part. Getting to know the nature of Africa.
- What do you know about Africa? (children’s answers) And imagine what Africa is.
Showing a presentation or visual demonstration material “Natural areas of Africa”
- It’s warm here all year round.
In summer there is drought and in winter it rains. 1. “Desert... All around are either yellow, small, soft, powdery sands, or gray, weathered stones. The sultry sky breathes heat. No water, not a bush of greenery. This is Africa. 2. Where sources of water emerge on the surface of the earth, the desert is transformed. These are oases. Date palms, fruit trees, grapes, and vegetables grow in them. 3. And next to it is a solid wall of tropical forest: trees, bushes, vines. The leaves on them are thick and juicy. Birds fly that look like magical flowers. It's always gloomy and humid here. You can hear the roar of predators and the screeching of monkeys. This is also Africa. 4. But the forest is becoming less and less common. It gives way to savannah. Savannah is endless steppes covered with tall grass. Among the savannah there are huge trees - giant baobabs (several meters in girth). Their fruits are edible. Monkeys love them very much. Along numerous rivers there are dense thickets with fresh greenery. These forests are called gallery forests. They remain green even under the scorching sun. - This is what Africa is like. Educator. Guys, tell me who we didn’t see in these photos? (animals). — Do you want to meet them? Educator. So we arrived. Look, our baby elephant is being met by his mother. What should we call her? (elephant). The mother elephant says that she was very worried about the baby elephant. The elephant and the calf thank the children for their help. Getting to know the animals of Africa. -Guys, what do you know about elephants? Show illustration.
The elephant is the largest and strongest animal in Africa, even a lion cannot cope with it.
The most amazing thing about an elephant is its trunk. What is he doing to them? (plucks leaves from trees, tears grass, drinks, carries thick trees. The elephant uses its trunk to protect itself from enemies, expresses tenderness, strokes its baby with its trunk). Elephants sleep standing up, only sometimes the cubs lie on their sides. In hot weather, the elephant fans itself with its large ears like a fan. The baby elephant and mother elephant introduce the children to their friends and give the children of the younger subgroup a set of African animals. Children name animals and their cubs (lion-lion, monkey-baby monkey, zebra-zebra or foal, camel-camel, elephant-elephant, giraffe-baby giraffe, hippopotamus-baby hippopotamus). — Animals want to play with you. Didactic game “What has changed?” The teacher puts the toys in a row, the children close their eyes, and when they open them, they say what has changed. — How can we make a hot country in our group? (children's answers) Children of the younger subgroup are informed that it is time for them to return to kindergarten, and they, together with the assistant teacher, fly home. As a gift about the trip, they are given a model of Africa, the children go to play with the set of animals. Educator. Our journey continues. Someone is on our way, repeat the movements after me. Physical education minute.
Here comes the thick-skinned hippopotamus to drink.
(hands to the side, we waddle).
And behind him, without knowing laziness.
Fast deer gallop. (Jump in place, depict horns)
Even though there is water with sand and clay, A giraffe with a long neck drinks here
(Bends forward, hands down, depict a giraffe’s neck).
By the river, buried in the silt, a formidable crocodile is dozing.
(Sit down, arms forward, move your arms apart and together, imitate the mouth of a crocodile)
- Guys, guess the riddle.
Here is a living crane, an inhabitant of hot countries. Leaves and bananas are torn from multi-story trunks. (Giraffe) Show illustration.
Conversation about an animal. First, the children tell what they know about the giraffe.
The teacher adds information. The height of the giraffe is 6 meters, it is as tall as a 2-story house (half the height is at the neck). The giraffe cannot be confused with anyone else. He has long legs and a sloping back like a hill. And a long, very long neck. On this neck is a small head with horns. The giraffe looks down on everyone with black eyes covered with thick eyelashes. The giraffe is a very beautiful animal. Its skin is decorated with a pattern of large red or brown spots. And each giraffe has its own unique pattern. - Why does a giraffe have such colorful colors? (She hides it from prying eyes. The bright glare of the sun, the openwork shadow of the trees hide the contours of the body of long-necked animals). - Why does a giraffe have a long neck? Thanks to its amazing neck, the giraffe plucks leaves from the highest branches of trees. His long tongue helps him with this. He is not afraid of thorns or sharp thorns. And they rarely eat grass. To bend down, the giraffe has to spread its front legs wide apart or kneel down. This is how giraffes drink water from a pond. While one drinks, the other watches carefully: is there danger? And he sleeps standing up. And very little. Giraffes graze in small herds. And often - with antelopes, zebras, ostriches. Nobody offends anyone. Giraffes will be the first to notice danger - they can see everything from above! - and they will warn the others. But with a blow from a hard hoof, a giraffe can knock down a lion - its main enemy. Giraffes run fast and can easily jump over high obstacles. They have good eyesight, smell and hearing. Now these amazing creatures of nature are protected in nature reserves. — What is a reserve? What kind of animal is this? (zebra) - Who will write a riddle about zebras? A zebra is a striped horse. Why does she need such a strange, striped outfit? Conspicuous coloring helps zebras recognize each other from afar. And, unsurprisingly, black and white stripes can deceive an attacking enemy. A zebra was attacked by a lion. One zebra is clearly visible. What if she runs to her herd? There are a lot of zebras there, and all the stripes merge, it dazzles your eyes... It seems that the herd has turned into some kind of strange, huge beast. Zebras eat grass. In search of new pastures and watering holes, they make long journeys across the sun-scorched savannah, where only bushes and trees grow here and there. Antelopes, ostriches and even giraffes often graze together with zebras. With such a large group it is easier to escape from enemies. A zebra knows how to stand up for itself. She tries to hit the enemy with her front legs with hard hooves, and even bite with her teeth. Her character is hot-tempered. A herd of zebras and the king of animals, the lion, can win. The baby foal recognizes its mother by the stripe pattern. It never repeats itself. And so that the baby remembers his mother well, she will not let anyone near the foal in the first days. Children in the middle group are asked to draw stripes on their zebras. Children in the middle group fly away from the lesson with their assistant teacher. Educator. - Children, guess the riddle. I am a hunchbacked beast, I live in the desert, I carry luggage to distant lands. (Camel) Camels are ruminant mammals that live in the desert. By storing fats in its single or double humps, this animal can travel great distances without eating or drinking. Camels have two rows of long, thick eyelashes that protect their eyes from sandstorms. Contrary to popular belief, camels do not store water in their humps. Water is stored in their blood, which allows them to go for several days without water or food. The camel is called the ship of the desert because. it is a means of transporting people and goods in the desert. The camel feeds all year round on scanty grass and camel thorns, which no animal can eat. A camel can go without water for several days. Educator. Early in the morning, monkeys frolic on the vines in Africa. Children jump up and down, imitating the movements of monkeys.
- Oh, look.
I saw how the animals went to drink. What is a watering hole? Who can come to a watering hole? (giraffe, zebra, lion) - Who lives in water almost all the time? (hippopotamus, turtle, crocodile) - What animals of Africa have we not named? —Where can you find out about them? (read in a book, ask adults, find information on the Internet). The teacher asks the children to prepare reports about animals. Educator. - Guys, it's time for us to go home. Bottom line. - What did we do today? (helped the baby elephant, learned about the nature of Africa, about animals). — What do you remember most about the trip? — What will we bring as a gift to our kids? — What animals will you tell your younger friends about? Productive activity. Educator. In memory of the fact that we traveled to Africa today, let's populate this continent with the animals that live here. Children cut out animals and glue them onto a picture of the continent.
- Let's say goodbye to the continent of Africa.
Exercise “Airplane” (children perform exercises in accordance with the text).
We put our hands all together. A plane appeared. Swing your wing back and forth, Do “one” and do “two”. Hold your hands to the sides, look at each other. Our plane landed and landed in kindergarten. Children of the junior and middle subgroups are invited, children of the older subgroup show collective work, where children of the middle group can glue their drawn zebras.
