The name of constructive activity takes its origin from the Latin word constructio, which translates as construction. By children's construction we mean an activity in which children create various play crafts (toys, buildings) from various materials (paper, cardboard, wood, special construction kits and construction sets). The basic point in design is the analytical and synthetic activity of examining objects. It makes it possible to establish the structure of an object and its parts, and take into account the logic of their connection. Thus, a tower with a too narrow base collapses.
Design in preschool age belongs to the educational field of “artistic and aesthetic development”, since it is very close to visual activities (appliqué, drawing, modeling). However, the program requirements also reflect the technical side of design, because it is the basis for the development of technical abilities, which serves the comprehensive development of preschool children [2, p. 56].
The following scientists studied the problem of design in preschool age: L.A. Wenger, A.N. Davidchuk, L.V. Kutsakova, Z.V. Lishtvan, V.S. Mukhina, V.G. Nechaeva, L.A. Paramonova, N.N. Poddyakov, G.A. Uruntaeva, G.A. Uradovskikh.
There are technical and artistic types of design for preschoolers. In technical design, real-life objects (cars, houses, bridges, etc.) are displayed in compliance with their structure and functionality. In this type of construction, the following are used: building material (sets of geometric bodies made of plastic or wood), construction sets with parts with fastenings, large modular blocks.
In artistic design, what comes to the fore is not functionality and close correspondence to a real object, but the beautiful appearance of the product, the child’s opportunity to demonstrate his creative and artistic abilities, and to express his attitude towards what he creates. Such crafts are made from: paper and cardboard; natural material (chestnuts, nuts, acorns, leaves, branches, straw, and so on); waste material (corks, matchboxes, yogurt jars, milk and juice cartons, etc.) [4, p. 89].
For any type of design, there are two main stages (according to L.A. Paramonova): the birth of a plan and the execution of a plan. These stages are interconnected. Let's analyze them.
The essence of the first stage is that the environment with all its diversity acts as a concept: a palette of colors, the objective and natural world, and the artistic component.
At the second stage of design, modeling is built on the basis of already finished items or objects. Gradually, the child’s activity is enriched with new content, methods of activity and, as a consequence, the appearance of new images. This leads to the development of thinking and imagination, and has a positive effect on the most constructive activities. The child can independently operate with images in space and easily transform them. Naturally, creative design for this provides every opportunity to develop the child’s personal potential.
There are the following forms of design for preschool children:
1. Design based on a model - the most elementary type. The child is shown a sample of the future building or is shown how to build it and is asked to reproduce the given pattern. Such activity does not require special mental and creative effort, but it requires attention, concentration, and most importantly, acceptance of the task itself of “acting according to the model.”
2. Design according to conditions. In this case, the child begins to build his structure not on the basis of a model, but on the basis of conditions that are put forward by the tasks of the game or by adults. For example, build a steamship so that it can accommodate the crew and passengers, build a bridge across a wide and deep river for a tram, cars, etc.
3. Design by design. Here nothing limits the imagination of the child and the building material itself. This type of construction is usually required by the game: here you can build not only from special building material, but also from any surrounding objects: furniture, sticks, umbrellas, pieces of fabric, etc. [6, p. 90].
A distinctive feature of the design process is the recreation and transformation of spatial representations, which contributes to the practical knowledge of the properties of geometric bodies and spatial relationships. At the same time, the development of spatial imagination and imaginative thinking is very important (N.N. Poddyakov). On the one hand, this type of activity requires children to have rather complex spatial orientation. The child needs to imagine the structure being created as a whole, take into account its spatial characteristics, the relative position of parts and details. On the other hand, it is in design, like in no other activity, that spatial orientations are formed.
The idea of space is made up of specific features of the shape, size, length, volume of objects, as well as their structural units: parts, details. In this regard, children’s speech is enriched with new terms and concepts that are rarely used in other types of activities [7, p. 90].
Also in the process of construction, the development of children's sensory and mental abilities is carried out. Children acquire constructive-technical (construct individual objects from building materials - buildings, bridges or make various crafts from paper - Christmas tree decorations, boats) and generalized skills (examine objects purposefully; compare them with each other and dismember them into parts; see in them the common and various; find the main structural parts on which the location of other parts depends; make conclusions and generalizations).
During the design process, planning mental activity develops, which in turn is an important factor in the formation of educational activity. During construction, children mentally imagine what they will be like and plan in advance how they will be performed and in what sequence.
Construction is also a means of moral education of preschool children. In the process of this activity, the following personality qualities are formed: hard work, independence, initiative, perseverance in achieving goals, organization. Joint constructive activity of children plays a significant role in developing the initial skills of working in a team - the ability to agree in advance (distribution of responsibilities, selecting the material necessary to complete a building or craft, planning the process of their production) and work together without interfering with each other.
And finally, constructive activity is of great importance for the education of aesthetic feelings and the development of creativity. When children become acquainted with modern buildings and with some architectural monuments that are accessible to them, they develop artistic taste, the ability to admire architectural riches and understand that the value of any structure lies not only in its compliance with its practical purpose, but also in its design - simplicity and clarity of forms, consistency of color combinations, thoughtful decoration. Making crafts from natural materials develops in children not only technical skills and abilities, but also a special creative attitude towards the world around them - children begin to see and feel the beauty of emerald moss and bright red rowan, the whimsicality of the roots and branches of trees, to feel the beauty and purposefulness of their combinations. In the process of creative construction from different materials, children develop generalized means of constructing activities.
L.A. Research Paramonova proved that construction in preschool age can be a truly creative, developing and developmental activity, because in its process the child develops a universal ability to build new structures and endow them with individual meaning.
Children of middle preschool age acquire a fairly stable interest in construction games. They are well acquainted with some of the details of the building material and know their purpose. The construction experience that children gained earlier gave them the opportunity to acquire some technical skills and remember how to create simple structures, which they easily reproduce in their games [3, p. 112].
If in previous groups the child mainly imitated the actions of the teacher, reproducing buildings according to his model, only adding some details, then in the middle group he can already name the theme of the building he is going to make, and is able to carry out his plans to the end. But topics often change under the influence of external circumstances and sometimes can only be realized with the help of a teacher.
During design classes in the middle group of a preschool educational institution, the teacher sets the following tasks:
1. Continue to develop in children the ability to distinguish and name building parts (cube, plate, brick, block, learn to use them taking into account their structural properties (stability, shape, size);
2. Learn to analyze a sample of a building: identify the main parts and distinguish, and correlate them by size and shape, establish the spatial arrangement of these parts relative to each other. Learn to independently measure buildings (in height, length and width, follow the design principle given by the teacher (“Build this same house, but high");
3. Learn to construct buildings from large and small building materials, use parts of different colors;
4. Teach paper construction: bend a rectangular sheet of paper in half, matching the sides and corners (album, flags for decorating an area, greeting card, glue parts to the main shape (to a house - windows, doors, pipes; to a bus - wheels; to a chair – back);
5. Involve children in making crafts from natural materials: bark, branches, leaves, cones, chestnuts, nut shells, straw. Use glue or plasticine to secure the parts. Use reels, boxes of different sizes and other items in crafts [4, p. 99].
Depending on the assigned tasks and the availability of building or any other material, both frontal and subgroup methods of teaching children can be used.
Thus, design plays an important role in the process of comprehensive, harmonious development of the personality of children of middle preschool age. The use of a variety of materials in design classes with middle preschool children significantly increases the preschooler’s repertoire of creative solutions and allows the production of new ideas. Involving a child in the use of a variety of construction materials not only for their intended purpose, but to solve other problems is the most important in the development of the child’s intelligence and, to a greater extent, creativity.

- Form a responsible attitude towards completing a task, encourage initiative in helping comrades.
Equipment: toy truck; illustrations of trucks and cars; construction diagrams of trucks: van, garbage truck and dump truck; set No. 7 “Froebel's Gifts” , a sheet of paper - the basis for constructing “City Street” , carpet print “Larchik” .
Educational activity plan.
There's a knock on the door. Enter Gena Barboskin (toy)
Toy: Guys, mom and dad prepared a gift for the Kid, and you will find out what they prepared by guessing the riddle.
Educator: Guys, do you want to know what kind of gift it is? (reads the riddle).
And we have fun in our family. We are celebrating housewarming. We moved instantly! Did he help us? Truck.
On the Larchik , the parts of the truck are attached in a certain order.
Kid: I liked the truck so much that I took it out to play in the yard and accidentally broke it. Machine parts scattered all over the site. Please help me find them. Educator: Guys, can we help the Kid find parts from the car? But in order to find all the parts from the car, you need to complete tasks.
- exercise. You will find the first part if you draw a path from the swing to the sandbox.
- exercise. You will find the second part under the Christmas tree.
- exercise. You will find the third detail between the birches.
- exercise. You will find the fourth part behind the bench.
Children go out at will and use the Larchik to find parts of the truck, and then assemble a car from the parts)
Educator: What kind of car did we get? That's right, it's a truck. Why is it called that?
Expected children's answers: Because she is carrying cargo.
Educator: What part of the machine is the cargo loaded into? (into the body).
Educator: What else does the truck have? (cabin, wheels, lights).
Children can come out and show parts of the truck if they wish.
Educator: There are different trucks and they have different names. If a car transports milk, then it is called a milk tanker.
Next, the teacher and the children look at different types of trucks in the illustrations (van, dump truck, milk truck, garbage truck).
What kind of loads does this car carry, what kind of body does it have, what is it called? Toy: Thank you, you helped me a lot, (says goodbye and leaves)
Educator: You have worked hard, and I suggest you rest a little. Physical education lesson: “Truck”
The truck is carrying sand (they walk in a circle, pretending to turn the steering wheel)
The people are surprised: (they stop, turn their faces in a circle, spread their arms, make a surprised face)
“This is a miracle - miracles, (tilt head left and right twice)
It contains sand to the skies! (stretch on tiptoes, raising arms up)
Educator: Do you want to assemble the truck yourself? And these drawings and diagrams will help us with this.
The teacher turns over 4 diagrams on the board.
Let's look at what geometric shapes the parts of the truck in the yellow diagram are made of.
Educator: What figures does the cabin consist of? (3 squares and triangles).
What geometric shapes can be used to make a body? (2 squares).
What geometric figure do wheels resemble? (2 large and small circles).
What are the headlights made of? (From two semicircles).
Each circuit is analyzed using this algorithm.
Children independently divide into subgroups, stand near tables on which diagrams, sheets of paper depicting a city street and road, and play set No. 7 “Froebel's Gifts” .
Educator: Now start building trucks, don’t forget that the diagram will help you with this.
When the cars are built, the children go around the tables with the buildings and discuss the result, name the type of truck, the main details, what geometric shapes were used, what the car transports)
“Machine” plays quietly .
Educator: You were great today, you all completed all the tasks and folded and built different trucks from geometric shapes.

Development of constructive abilities of preschool children
Author: Kuzmenko Svetlana Vladimirovna
The relevance of the topic is due to the need to prepare children for life from preschool age, since we live in an age of unprecedented scientific and technological revolution. And life in all its directions becomes more diverse and complex, the further it goes, the more it requires from a person not stereotyped, habitual actions, but mobility of mind, thinking, quick orientation, and a creative approach to solving large and small problems. Construction is closely related to play and is an activity that meets the interests of children, through which their mental and creative abilities can be improved. In the process of targeted learning, preschoolers, along with technical skills, develop the ability to analyze objects in the surrounding reality, form generalized ideas about the objects being created, develop independent thinking, and form valuable personality traits (accuracy, determination, perseverance in achieving goals). All this allows us to consider construction as an effective means of preparing children for school.
The purpose of this work is to show the need to develop the constructive abilities of preschoolers as a factor in readiness for school learning; to form children's sensory abilities; develop thinking, attention, imagination, creativity, artistic taste; cultivate dedication, accuracy, and perseverance in achieving goals.
Objectives: to develop a child’s interest in creative design in preschool age through play activities; teach children observation skills and the ability to compare; introduction to the world of beauty.
The term “construction” (from the Latin word construere - construction) means construction in general, bringing various objects, parts, elements into a certain relative position. Children's construction is usually understood as a variety of buildings made from building materials, the production of crafts and toys from paper, cardboard, wood and other materials. In its nature, it is most similar to visual activity and play - it also reflects the surrounding reality. Children's buildings and crafts are for practical use, and therefore must correspond to their purpose.
Constructive activity is a practical activity aimed at obtaining a specific, pre-conceived product that corresponds to its functional purpose. Children's constructive creativity can develop successfully if they have clear ideas about structures that clearly reflect the spatial characteristics of objects and their relationships. Such ideas are formed in conditions of the child’s active cognition of the environment and deepen in the process of representation. The basis of children's ideas is the analysis and synthesis of objects and buildings.
Thus, the prerequisites for the formation of children’s constructive creativity are: ideas about the objects of reality and the ability to highlight their spatial properties and relationships; childhood experience, including a variety of constructive skills and abilities to create different versions of the same object. Depending on the material from which children create their buildings and structures, they distinguish:
ü design from building materials;
ü construction from paper, cardboard, boxes, reels and other materials;
ü construction from natural materials.
Children begin constructing Lego-type construction materials from building materials and large parts in the middle group. At this age, buildings may include 5-6 parts. Design skills according to one’s own design are developed, as well as planning a sequence of actions. At this age, children develop an interest in the quality of their work: they begin to consciously strive to comply with certain requirements imposed by the teacher (the sequence of operations, the use of different design methods, they show a desire to master certain skills and willingly practice design. In the middle of the year, children begin construct from paper, and at the end of the year - from natural and waste materials.
In the older group, construction is characterized by children’s ability to analyze the conditions in which this activity takes place. Children use and name various parts of the wooden construction set. In the older group, during design classes, children can make objects necessary for the game from paper and other materials. From natural materials - cones, acorns, leaves, branches, berries - children learn to construct animals that are simple in structure. The main techniques that help children create images are observations, looking at animals and birds on a walk, in illustrations. When teaching how to design an object, you should not constantly resort to showing methods of construction - it is necessary to intensify the experience of children, ask how, in their opinion, this thing can be done, ask leading questions, and praise those who answer correctly. This technique promotes the development of children's creativity.
In the preparatory group, children have already mastered a fairly wide range of knowledge, skills and abilities in creating various buildings, children are able to construct more complex structures, which require various construction sets.
Children continue to learn not only from building material, but also from paper and other materials. These classes are of great importance for preparing for school: imaginative thinking develops during the design process. Design abilities.
Children should develop the ability to use buildings made from building materials in role-playing games, develop the ability to independently make toys for role-playing games (binoculars, hats, books, toy furniture, etc.); souvenirs for parents and kindergarten staff; Christmas tree decorations.
Most children simply love to design, so a construction set is something that should be in every home.
And the benefits of such an acquisition are obvious - on the one hand, the child is captivated by an interesting activity, and on the other, this activity contributes to all-round development. comments powered by HyperComments
