Cognitive and research project in the preparatory school group
“Water is the source of life”
We must remember water with a capital W, since it is not only necessary for life, it is life itself.

(Exupery)

Project theme: Water - the source of life"

Project type:

Cognitive-research, group.

Project participants

: children of the preparatory group, parents, teachers.

Duration

: medium term (3 weeks)

Relevance of the topic:

Water is one of the main resources on Earth. Water is a word we have known since birth. Sometimes we don’t even think about what it means and what it means to us. But water is the main component of all living things on our planet. Without water, no one and nothing on earth can exist. Our ancestors drank only clean, living water, and created legends and fairy tales about it. It is impossible to imagine what would happen to our planet if fresh water disappeared. But such a threat exists. There is only 3% fresh water in the world. These reserves are being depleted, and fresh water is becoming less and less. All living things around us suffer from polluted water. Therefore, water is our main wealth.

Based on the results of conversations with children, we found out that children know little about what happens to water in nature; what properties does it have; can a person and all living things live without water; how much water is on earth; how water gets into our apartments. We decided to find out how to use it carefully. For the study, we chose the topic: “Water is the source of life.”

Objective of the project:

Formation in children of knowledge about the importance of water in the life of all life on earth: water is the source of life, as well as a conscious, careful attitude towards water as an important natural resource, that is, the education of environmental consciousness.

Tasks:

To consolidate and systematize children's knowledge about water and its properties.

Introduce the water cycle in nature.

Give an idea of ​​the role of water in human life and living organisms.

Continue to introduce children to the basic rules of hygiene and behavior on the water.

Develop children's cognitive abilities, teach them to show independence in acquiring knowledge during experiments.

To develop children's curiosity, the ability to observe, analyze, and draw conclusions.

Foster respect for water.

Formulation of the problem:

Life on earth without water is impossible. Can we live without water? Who needs water? Where do we find water in nature? What state is water in? Should we conserve water and why?

Hypothesis:

if there was no water, there would be no life on Earth.

Short-term project “Water Sorceress” for the senior group of preschool educational institutions

Project participants: teacher and senior children.

Project duration: week

Relevance:

Scientific and practical progress is constantly expanding the use of natural resources, and also contributes to the involvement of ever larger territories in human economic activity. The result of this process is the increasing destruction of natural ecological systems. In this regard, issues of caring for nature, preserving its pristine beauty, and improving the protection of biodiversity require urgent solutions

Preschool childhood is the first stage where knowledge about the world around us is intensively accumulated and a multifaceted attitude towards people and nature is formed. The components of the ecological culture of a preschooler’s personality are knowledge about nature and its environmental orientation, the ability to use it in real life, in behavior, in various activities.

Object: Water in our lives.

Hypothesis: We assumed that it is impossible to live without water

Problem: Children lack ideas about the importance of water in human life, about the properties and qualities of water and a careful attitude towards it.

Justification of the problem:

Insufficient knowledge on the physical properties of water, as well as its significance;

Deterioration of the environmental situation

Project goal: To generalize and expand the cognitive interest of preschool children in water as an object of inanimate nature.

Tasks:

  • Develop ideas about the properties (taste, color, smell, fluidity) and states of water (solid, liquid, gaseous);
  • To develop in children knowledge about the importance of water for all life on earth;
  • Develop basic experimentation skills;
  • To form a conscious, careful attitude towards water as an important natural resource;
  • Development of creative abilities of adults and children in the process of joint activities;
  • Improve work on interaction with parents, intensify the position of parents as participants in the pedagogical process of the kindergarten;
  • Create conditions for the development of children's cognitive interest, creative imagination and thinking, as well as communication skills.

Expected results:

  • Expand and deepen the child’s knowledge and understanding of the world around him, including water.
  • Master basic experimentation skills
  • Gain experience in humane treatment of plants and living beings.
  • Increased knowledge in the field of research skills (establish cause-and-effect relationships).

Project implementation principles:

The principle of differentiation and individualization presupposes the creation of conditions for the full manifestation of the abilities of each child and timely educational work.

The principle of conformity with nature indicates that the educational process corresponds to both internal nature and external conditions.

The principle of dialogic communication as an integral condition for the interaction of subjects, which reflects the close connection between mutual and reciprocal openness, sincerity, mutual understanding of the teacher and the child, and projects an attitude towards reasonable assimilation.

The principle of accessibility provides for the implementation of environmental work taking into account the characteristics of age, preparedness, as well as the individual characteristics and mental development of children.

Systematic principle. Achieving the goal is ensured by solving a set of health, educational and educational tasks with appropriate content, which allows us to obtain a predictable result.

The principle of consistency is to gradually increase requirements in the process of environmental activities.

Project implementation forms:

Ecological activities.

Observations and ecological excursions.

Educational reading.

Laboratory "Experiments" (experiments and experiments).

Outdoor, didactic, simulation games, environmental dramatizations.

Results of the “Underwater World” project.

By the end of the “Underwater World” project, the children of the preparatory group learned:

  • that water in nature exists in various forms: reservoirs, precipitation (rain, snow, hail, dew), icicle, cloud, etc.;
  • the main properties of water are liquid, transparent, colorless, odorless and tasteless, dissolves some substances, has density, pressure;
  • water in nature can move from one state to another (ice - water - steam), there is a water cycle in nature;
  • there are reasons for water pollution, the simplest ways to purify it;
  • how animals and plants adapted to live in water, learned the classification of fish, their habitat, their structure, habits, nutrition, the difference between sea and river inhabitants.

Can:

  • independently explain the connection of facts (they use simple causal reasoning because: objects are visible in the water, because the water is transparent);
  • independently establish the simplest cause-and-effect relationships and relationships (if..., then...: if it’s frosty outside, then the water freezes; if the water is well purified, then it can be drunk);
  • do simple experiments using a verbal description or a model; upon completion of the experiment, draw appropriate conclusions;
  • notice changes in the aquarium that worsen the life of its inhabitants, care for aquarium fish.

The children in our group began to pay attention to whether the tap was closed properly, and if they noticed that water was dripping from the tap, they reported it to adults. We also noticed that children began to pour less water to drink, explaining that they did not want to pour the remaining water into the sink.

With great interest, the children began to be on duty in the corner of nature: they were careful when watering flowers, trying not to spill water from the watering can. They carefully monitor the aquarium fish and have come up with a name for each fish.

They carry out simple experiments independently and tell each other the results of these experiments. They bring new books to the group about rivers, seas, oceans, and sea voyages, look at the pictures with pleasure, and share their impressions of what they saw.

At the end of the project, the children had a question about what and who else needs people’s help, what needs to be done to make our planet Earth better, cleaner. Therefore, we decided to learn more about the life of animals, birds, and plants. These topics will become the topics of new projects.

Appendix 1. Outdoor games, sketches.

1. Outdoor game “Crucian carp and pike”. One child is chosen as a pike, the rest are divided into “pebbles” and “crucian carp”, which swim inside the circle. At the signal “pike”, it runs into the circle, trying to catch crucian carp. And the “crucian carp” are in a hurry to hide behind the “pebbles”. The crucian carp caught by the pike go outside the circle. The game is repeated with another “pike”.

2. Low mobility game “Stream”. Children stand in pairs, one after another, hold hands and raise them, forming a hoop. One child, the leader, goes through the gate and chooses any player from the pair, leading him along to the end of the corridor. The child left without a partner becomes the leader.

3. Game - simulation “We are droplets.” Give children paper crowns with droplet designs. The teacher puts on the same crown with a pattern of a cloud - mother, and the children are her teardrop children. The guys surround the cloud mother and dance around her. Then she lets them go for a walk on the ground, gives instructions to water the plants, wash the ground and come back. Children scatter to the sides, then gather together, stand one after another, forming streams. Then, at the teacher’s command, the streams join together to form a river. The river flows into the ocean (children make a wide circle). Mother Cloud reminds them that they are droplets and calls them home. The children spin around, one by one returning to the cloud. The circle is closed.

4. Sketch “The sea is agitated.” Goal: expand the content of the game, develop imagination, creativity, plasticity of movements.

5. Sketch “In the swamp”. Children, as the teacher explains, imitate the habits of animals living in the swamp through expressiveness and plasticity of movements.

Appendix 2. A series of observations of the inhabitants of the aquarium.

1. “Who lives in our aquarium.” Goal: identify all the inhabitants of the aquarium (fish, snails, plants), their names, clarify the living conditions of the inhabitants of the aquarium (lots of water, soil in which plants grow, lighting, compressor, feeder). Clarify the features of the external structure of fish.

2. “How fish swim and rest.” Purpose: to clarify that fish move in water easily, freely, and can swim in different directions. Their streamlined shape, smooth body surface, and fins help them move. The fish uses its tail to make turns. Show children that fish need rest and sleep. They rest standing motionless near the grass bushes, at the bottom, and sleep with their eyes open.

3. “How fish breathe.” Purpose: To give an idea that fish need air to live. They breathe air in the water using gills. The gill wings that cover them are located on the sides of the head. They constantly open and close - this is how the fish breathes.

4. “Clean up the aquarium.” Goal: To learn to notice changes in the condition of the aquarium - dirt on the bottom, plaque on the glass, decrease in water, dust and stains on the glass, to evaluate these changes as a deterioration in the living conditions of aquatic inhabitants. To form a desire to take part in the work of adults, to receive satisfaction from joint work. Instill a sense of responsibility and a desire to justify trust. To foster activity, initiative, independence, accuracy, and friendliness.

Appendix 3. Experiments with water.

1. “What will we see through the water?”

Goal: to consolidate children’s knowledge about the property of water - transparency, through the consolidation of geometric shapes and colors.

Equipment: basin with water, geometric shapes of different colors.

Questions for children: what is in the basin (water). What can you tell us about water? Then throw the cube into the basin. What happened to him? (Fell to the bottom). Is it visible? What colour is he?

Invite the children to take turns putting various objects into the water. While one child lowers the object, the other children close their eyes.

Question for children: why do we see all these objects even through the water? (The water is clear).

2. “How to give Ivanushka clean water to drink?”

Goal: get acquainted with water purification processes in various ways.

Equipment: paper napkin, paper funnel, rag, rubbish, starch, containers.

Invite the children to see how cloudy the water is in the jar. It needs to be cleaned so that Ivanushka can drink it without fear of getting sick. How to make a cleaning device?

Children come up with different options for water purification. Invite children to make various cleaning devices - filters (from a paper funnel, a rag, a paper napkin). Children make filters and test their effect. Find out which filter purifies water better?

3. “Water pressure.”

Goal: to introduce children to the property of water - pressure.

Equipment: plastic bottle, knitting needle, colored water.

Tell children that water has a wonderful property: it always tends to flow as low as possible. Have children encountered this property? What did it look like?

Water puts pressure on any object immersed in it. The greater the depth, the stronger the water pressure. The deeper a diver dives, the more pressure the water puts on him. You can estimate water pressure by the force with which the stream escapes from the hole. To do this, you need to poke three holes in the bottle and fill the bottle with water. Invite children to think about where the water pressure is greater at the top or bottom.

4. “Floats or sinks.”

Goal: to introduce children to the property of water - density, to show the difference between fresh and salt water.

Equipment: two transparent glasses, warm water, salt, raw egg.

Tell children that salt water is denser than fresh water, therefore it is easier to swim in salt water, since water holds objects or people better, as if pushing objects out of the water. Invite children to dissolve as much salt as possible in one glass of water, then try to lower an egg into this glass, then transfer the egg to a glass of plain, fresh water. What happened to the egg in salt water, what happened in fresh water? Lead the children to the conclusion that salt water is denser than fresh water.

Appendix 4. Quiz “What do we know about fish.”

Goal: To repeat and generalize children’s ideas about the underwater inhabitants of rivers and seas, to evoke a feeling of joy from collective play, and to intensify cognitive interest. Create conditions for the realization of ideas about the world in creative activity.

Task 1. Remember proverbs and sayings about the water world.
