Preparatory group
We offer games to consolidate and generalize knowledge about flora, expand horizons, and develop cognitive activity in preschoolers preparing for school.
Make a plant from parts
The game requires pictures divided into parts, each part representing a specific plant organ: stem, root, leaves, flowers. The game task is to create a plant from parts of the picture. It is important that the depicted representatives of the flora belong to different categories: trees, shrubs, herbs, vegetables, flowers.
Didactic game “Groups of plants”
The teacher lays out 4 pictures in front of the players, depicting plants of certain groups. The game task is to identify the extra image.
Here are the categories:
- shade-loving plants - lily of the valley, sunflower, fern, ivy;
- wild - nettle, plantain, burdock, strawberry;
- blooming - juniper, aster, lilac, flax;
- medicinal - chamomile, hawthorn, sedge, coltsfoot;
- poisonous - henbane, clover, crow's eye, castor bean;
- conifers - spruce, pine, cypress, hornbeam.
Vegetable shop
Before the game starts, the teacher tells the children that agricultural crops are taken to vegetable warehouses for storage and to enterprises for processing and preservation. Fruits and vegetables that are stored fresh must be periodically sorted for spoilage. And those fruits that are immediately processed cannot be stored for a long time and quickly rot.
Children are divided into two groups: the first play farmers bringing the harvest, the second play specialists in receiving goods. To play the game you need to make images of different vegetables, berries, fruits, and also put two tables: one will be a vegetable storage, the second will be a processing plant. Each farmer player takes a picture, approaches the goods distributor with it, and he determines where the products will go: to storage or for processing.
Forester
A game played in the forest makes familiarization with plants more effective. The teacher, playing the role of a forester, goes with the children to the forest. This could be a forest belt, a city park. The forester lays out a convenient route for the children, but does not directly tell them where to turn, but describes a tree or bush, followed by a turn. Based on the description of the foliage, the color of the bark, the splendor of the crown and other parameters, attentive preschoolers must guess where to move.
