Explanatory note

“The world surrounding a child is, first of all, the world of nature, with an endless wealth of phenomena, with inexhaustible beauty.
Here, in nature, is the eternal source of the child’s mind” V. Sukhomlinsky.
The Ryabinka circle has an environmental focus, which is determined by its particular relevance

environmental education in modern conditions. With the beginning of the third millennium, the environmental problems that arose earlier not only did not disappear, but continued to deepen. In the 21st century, their solution takes on the character of a factor in the survival of mankind.

Since environmental problems have come to the fore in recent years, it is necessary to deepen children’s knowledge in this area. Introducing children to environmental culture must begin from childhood, since at this age it is easiest to introduce children to nature, teach them to love and protect nature. Children learn to observe changes occurring in nature and draw conclusions. By studying in a circle, children enrich their knowledge base with new knowledge about natural phenomena. This instills in them curiosity, a caring attitude towards nature, and a desire to know more. When studying the topics provided by the circle, imaginative and concrete thinking develops; visual and auditory memory; speech, attention, perception.

The content of the circle was based on the partial program of S.N. Nikolaeva “Young Ecologist” and the program of additional environmental education for children of senior preschool age E.Yu. Borzova “Ecological Basket”, which involves the formation in children of a consciously correct attitude towards natural phenomena and objects that surround them and with which they become acquainted in preschool childhood and the formation of an ecological culture in preschoolers through their familiarization with the value foundations of their relationship to nature.
