Project “My Hometown”
Went to Childhood - an everyday discovery of the world and therefore it is necessary to make sure that it becomes, first of all, knowledge of man and the Fatherland, their beauty and greatness (V.A. Sukhomlinsky)
In this huge world, everyone has their own small homeland, and we carry a piece of it in our hearts throughout life. To instill patriotic feelings in a child means to cultivate affection and love for his small Motherland. And if we want our children to love their country, we need to do a lot to make them love the place where they were born and live. To arouse interest in the hometown, it is necessary to select material that would be accessible to the child’s perception and leave vivid impressions. These can be images of nature, social events, traditions, the work of loved ones. The knowledge gained about their hometown will contribute to the development in preschoolers of such feelings as affection and love for their native land. I would like our children’s childhood impressions to become the source of love for their hometown and the people living in it. The project “My Hometown” was developed for the 70th anniversary of the city of Vorkuta. Vorkuta is a city with a difficult fate, harsh climatic conditions, fragile northern nature, sights included in the world cultural heritage, strong and talented people. This project has become effective in developing a systematic approach to nurturing love for their hometown in older preschool children. The project is based on personality-oriented interaction, integration of means, methods and various types of children's activities. To include children in the project, a motivation was proposed - to create a mini museum of the city in our group.

“Vorkuta collection of poems about Vorkuta” V. Gerun.
Application
To the city of Vorkuta! Vladimir Gerun To the city of Vorkuta!
I love this beautiful city, On the ring among the bright roads It stands proud and clear And, like the north, it is solemn and strict.
My dear land, the Ural Mountains, you stand guard over miracles, I love the blue expanses, Vorkuta and our low forest.
This tundra is beautiful in color, When cloudberries bloom in summer and pansies in a bouquet, Ivan tea grows here like lilacs.
For two months there is greenery, expanse The sun goes around in circles all day, There are no nights and such freedom, I walk with chamomile all day!
This is a sea of beautiful daisies, Like these fields of poppies in the Crimea, I am proud of my beloved miners, I am proud of you Vorkuta!
White powder
White powder was covered with snow, White snow covered the ground again. It sprinkles white, white silver on top, Everything has become wonderful outside my window.
And the canvas lies quietly on the river, Silver glides like a light, white ribbon. The shores are covered with white milk, The fresh breeze burns the soul.
The mine on the hill sleeps, covered in darkness, The shores are covered with a white veil. It pours white on top, as if from a bucket, And the city of Vorkuta shines from the tundra!
Textbook assignment
So, on the page with the project, the authors of the textbook tell us about Seryozha and Nadya; most likely, they are brother and sister. The children live in Moscow - this is their hometown.
They walked with their parents around Moscow and photographed various beauties. Their photographs are given as an example on the pages of the textbook.
So we are invited to do the same. Go and walk around your hometown with a camera in your hands, take photos. And then use these photographs to create a project.
That’s what it says: “Prepare a photo story about your hometown (village).”
The question immediately arises: “How to formalize it?” And here is the answer: “It can be designed in the form of a book, a stand, a wall newspaper.”
In general, everything is clear. We can start. As usual, we start by setting a goal and developing a work plan.
Goal and work plan
We live in Lipetsk, and this is what we will talk about in our project.
We, as always, do a little more than we are asked. This time we decided not only to include photographs of the city in the project, but also to add information about the city’s coat of arms, the date of its foundation and decorate our creation with a poem.
So, here are our goals:
- Replenish your knowledge about the sights of Lipetsk.
- Create a mini-book “Hometown”.
Yes, yes, we decided to format the project in the form of a small book.
The following steps will lead us to our goals:
- Find information on the Internet about the coat of arms of Lipetsk and the date of its foundation.
- Find a beautiful poem about the city of Lipetsk on the Internet.
- Find beautiful photographs on the Internet with views of Lipetsk.
- Write descriptions for the found photographs.
- Make a mini-book.
- Present the project in class.
And a few more lines about the workbook. It also contains a couple of pages for this work.
Unlike the assignment we received in first grade where the project could be completed directly in the workbook, this time the workbook is designed for a different purpose.
On its pages, children are invited to post:
- basic materials on the project (photos, background information);
- write down a plan for speaking at a presentation;
- evaluate your work and express gratitude to those who helped make the project.
We begin!
