Explanatory note
Good nature has taken care of everything so much that everywhere you find something to learn
Leonardo da Vinci
The ecological state of our planet and its deterioration trends require that living people understand the current situation and have a conscious attitude towards it. Environmental problems are common to all continents and states. Environmental problems and the need to overcome them have given rise to a new direction in education – environmental . It is important for each of us to understand how a person is connected with nature, how he depends on it, what patterns exist in nature and why humanity has no right to ignore them.
Environmental education of preschoolers is an introduction to nature for children, which is based on an ecological approach , and the pedagogical process is based on the fundamental ideas and concepts of ecology . The subject environment of a preschool child includes various natural objects, so his familiarization with plants, animals, and inanimate natural phenomena is inevitable - this is a natural process of learning about the world around him and acquiring social experience. Preschool childhood is the initial stage of the formation of a person’s personality, his values, orientation in the world around him. During this period, a positive attitude towards nature, towards the “man-made world”
, to yourself and to the people around you.
The main content of environmental education is the formation in a child of a consciously correct attitude towards natural phenomena and objects that surround him and with which he becomes acquainted in preschool childhood.
Little children believe absolutely everything and absorb everything like a sponge. You don’t have to be a doctor of biological sciences to tell your child important and interesting environmental information . Any of us can teach a child to distinguish an oak from a birch or watch with him how sprouts emerge in the spring - tell him why it is harmful to burn grass and why you need to be careful with water. And " environmentally friendly "
behavior will quickly become a habit for the child.
This work program for environmental education of preschoolers was developed for children 5-6 years old on the basis of a plan - a program of the pedagogical process in kindergarten “From birth to school”
(Edited by N. E. Veraksa, M. A. Vasilyeva, T. S. Komarova .)
in accordance with the Federal State Educational Standards of Preschool Education.
The program lies in the fact that it covers different aspects of environmental education for preschool children. The program provides not only environmental education for preschool children, but also motivation to develop children’s skills to provide all possible assistance to our nature. It includes the development in children of the skills of setting up and conducting simple experiments. For example, growing seedlings for flower beds in a kindergarten. Thanks to the inclusion of children in the development of this educational program , preschoolers receive environmental knowledge , they develop observation, a sense of empathy, the ability to see beauty in nature, and the ability to provide all possible assistance to nature. Personal qualities such as kindness, responsibility, hard work, independence, and the ability to work in a team .
The goal of the program : to form the foundations of environmental consciousness and environmental culture .
Program objectives :
• Enrich children with knowledge about nature, its diversity, the integrity of a living organism, its needs, distinctive features, features of adaptation to the environment, and lifestyle.

The “Young Ecologist” program is aimed at developing the foundations of ecological culture in children aged 2-7 years in a kindergarten, at developing in children a humane attitude towards living beings, and at developing skills in caring for the inhabitants of a corner of nature. The program is built taking into account the results of research by scientists in the field of child psychology and pedagogy (A.V. Zaporozhets, L.A. Wenger, V.S. Mukhina, N.N. Poddyakova, P.G. Samorukova, etc.).
The goal of the program: to educate preschoolers’ environmental culture.
Principles of program implementation:
- gradual increase in the volume of material;
- priority use of the natural environment: plants and animals of the green zone of the kindergarten and plots;
- promoting children from single sensory impressions to the diversity of these impressions, then to specific ideas, then to a generalization of ideas;
- widespread use of different types of practical activities;
- presenting educational material using techniques that arouse interest and positive emotions in children.
The program includes sections: “Inanimate nature - the living environment of plants, animals, humans”; “Recommendations for the distribution of material by age groups.” And also the conditions are revealed, the observance of which contributes to the successful implementation of the “Young Ecologist” program in the practice of the kindergarten. Practical recommendations are given for creating a developing ecological-subject environment in a preschool institution. A wide range of illustrative material is provided, which is taken as the basis for creating the necessary visual aids. The planned results for the development of this program correspond to the targets outlined in the Federal State Educational Standard for Education, namely:
the child shows curiosity, asks questions to adults and peers, is interested in cause-and-effect relationships, and tries to independently come up with explanations for natural phenomena and people’s actions;
the child is inclined to observe and experiment;
has basic knowledge about himself, about the natural and social world in which he lives;
is familiar with works of children's literature, has basic understanding of wildlife, natural science, mathematics, history, etc.
The “Young Ecologist” program highlights two aspects of the content of environmental education: the transfer of environmental knowledge and its transformation into attitude.
“Environmental education of preschool children” consists of 7 sections.
Section 1 - basic information about the universe, the inanimate nature of the Earth and its significance in the life of living beings, which are considered both in themselves and as components of the living environment of living beings. It is shown that without water, air, soil, the life of plants, animals and humans is impossible, that planet Earth, unlike other planets of the solar system, has the entire complex of necessary conditions for life in all its forms.
Sections 2, 3 - knowledge of the actual ecological laws of nature - the life of plants and animals in their habitat and in the community. These laws can be interestingly learned already at preschool age in order to understand them, become familiar with them in your behavior and live in accordance with them on Earth.
Section 4 traces the role of habitat in the process of ontogenesis - the growth and development of certain species of plants and higher animals.
Section 5 explores the relationships within communities that children can observe.
Section 6 shows different forms of human interaction with nature.
Section 7 provides general recommendations for the distribution of material by age.
Ecological knowledge is not an end in itself, but only a means of developing an attitude towards nature, which is built on an emotionally sensitive basis, demonstrated by the child in various types of activities.
Relevance of the problem of environmental education
With the adoption of the laws of the Russian Federation “On Environmental Protection” and “On Education”, the prerequisites for the legal framework were created for the formation of a system of environmental education for the population. “The Decree of the President of the Russian Federation on environmental protection and sustainable development” (taking into account the Declaration of the UN Conference on Environment and Development, signed by Russia), the corresponding government resolutions elevate environmental education to the category of priority government problems. These documents imply the creation in the regions of the country of a system of continuous environmental education, the first link of which is preschool. It is at this age that the foundations of a person’s worldview and his relationship to the world around him are laid.
The environmental situation in the world requires a change in human behavior and a change in value orientations. To do this, everyone living on Earth needs to understand the real position of man as a biological species that exists on our planet along with other, no less significant species. We must understand the limited natural resources of the territories used. Today, more and more countries, including ours, are joining the implementation of the concept of sustainable development. According to this concept, people must comply with the laws of nature and change their consumer attitude towards it to recognize its intrinsic value: on the one hand, the interests of people and their desire to create acceptable living conditions for themselves must be taken into account, on the other hand, human aspirations should be limited by the framework of natural laws.
To put these principles into practice, we need people with new thinking. That is why, all over the world, more and more attention has recently been paid to environmental education. Achieving the goals declared in the modern concept of sustainable development is possible only through environmental education. The “Concept of Sustainable Development of Russia” contains a section “Environmental education, greening of public consciousness.” It especially emphasizes the formation by all available means of an ecological worldview of Russian citizens, and first of all children. This approach requires analyzing the content and methodology of environmental education for preschoolers.
First of all, we must pay attention to the following issues.
- Understanding the intrinsic value of nature.
- The child’s awareness of himself as a part of nature.
- Cultivating a respectful attitude towards all species without exception, regardless of our likes and dislikes.
- Understanding that everything in nature is interconnected and the violation of one of the connections leads to other changes: a “chain reaction” occurs.
- Raising an active life position in children.
- Teaching the basics of basic environmental safety.
- Formation of initial information about the rational use of natural resources using the example of the use of water and energy in everyday life.
- Formation of environmentally literate behavior in everyday life and in nature.
- Formation of an emotionally positive attitude towards the world around us, understanding the dependence of its state on the actions of a person (including a child).
- Understanding the uniqueness and beauty of the surrounding world.
For many years, society was aimed at transforming nature, at “taking all its riches,” and man considered himself a winner, a conqueror of nature. This is the main idea of anthropocentrism, which is widespread in many ways today, including in preschool education. This means that in the human-nature relationship, man views himself as the main actor who can remake his environment as he pleases, for his own good. The younger generation can and should develop a new - ecological - consciousness.
Then this generation will build its relationship with nature from a different position -
the position of biocentrism,
which means:
man is special, intelligent, but still only a part of nature, and ecology is not just a science, it is a worldview!
Whatever a child becomes in the future, he must understand well his role in the world around him, be aware of the consequences of his actions, and have an understanding of the laws of nature.

Work program for the course “Environmental education”TEACHER'S WORK PROGRAM (preparatory group)
Modern problems of human relations with the environment can be solved only if all people acquire an ecological culture, ecological thinking, ecological consciousness, and environmentally justified relationships with nature. The legislative framework that governs preschool educational institutions elevates environmental education to the category of priority state problems. Preschool age is the optimal stage in the development of an individual’s ecological culture. At this age, the child begins to distinguish himself from the environment, an emotional and value-based attitude towards the environment develops, and the foundations of moral and ecological positions are formed, which are manifested in the child’s interactions with nature, as well as in his behavior in nature.
Thanks to this, it becomes possible to develop environmental knowledge in children, norms and rules for interacting with nature, developing empathy for it, and being active in solving some environmental problems. By environmental education we mean a continuous process of training, education and development of a child, aimed at developing a system of knowledge and skills, value orientations, moral, ethical and aesthetic attitudes that ensure a responsible (consciously correct) attitude towards the state of the environment. This work program of the MBDOU “Combined Kindergarten No. 20” was developed on the basis of the “Young Ecologist” by S.N. Nikolaeva and covers the environmental education of children from the second youngest to the preparatory group, i.e. 4 years of education and training. It shows continuity from one age group to another.
The program is aimed at developing an emotional, value-based, active attitude of preschool children to nature.
The program is designed taking into account the implementation of interdisciplinary connections across sections.
- “Art activity” , where works of painting about nature are used according to the seasons, various products are made from natural materials.
- “Fiction” , which uses works about nature.
- “Musical education” , where musical works about nature and seasonal changes are learned, musical festivals and entertainment are held.
- “Physical education” , where the basics of a healthy lifestyle are instilled, excursions, hikes, and outdoor entertainment are held.
Tasks:
- Expand and generalize children’s knowledge about the natural world as an integral interconnected system.
- Develop general cognitive abilities: the ability to observe, describe, make assumptions and suggest methods and tests, find cause-and-effect relationships.
- To form a conscious and caring attitude of children towards nature.
Educational and methodological kit:
- The program of education and training in kindergarten, edited by M.A. Vasilyeva,
V.V. Gerbova, T.S. Komarova.
