Moral education in the preparatory group
The basis of moral education in the preparatory group is a variety of collective activities in which children learn to give in and negotiate with each other, provide mutual assistance, and coordinate their actions.
In the preparatory group, the teacher can already use methods of indirect influence on the game much more widely. The teacher can already enrich the plot and establish the right relationships. When carrying out common assignments and being on joint duty, children develop the experience of collective cooperation. The teacher, using special pedagogical techniques, must create appropriate emotional experiences and feelings in the child.
For example, a teacher can involve children in preparing a postcard for a sick friend. He must emotionally explain to the children how happy his friend will be with the postcard, how he wants to meet the children.
During moral education in the preparatory group, it is very important to instill independence in the child. At the same time, the teacher must be unobtrusive and very careful. Then children will have a feeling of complete independence when choosing a course of action. Independence will help to form the child’s emotional and positive tone in the team, the balance of his behavior, and activity in relationships with peers. With the timely development of independence, preschoolers already show concern for others, active mutual assistance, and careful attitude towards things.
Moral education in the younger group
As children move from nursery to junior group, their lifestyle changes in many ways. Their activities include drawing, role-playing, appliqué, and modeling. Children gradually move from solitary games to simple forms of joint work and play activities. Teachers at this age can already actively involve children in mandatory and systematic group activities. In class, they must learn new rules that will guide their behavior. All this will contribute to the formation of new interests, emotional experiences, and needs. And this will be of considerable importance for moral development.
Moral education in the younger group should be aimed at forming friendly friendships with friendly, polite treatment of each other, developing in children the ability to show empathy and responsiveness to their peers.
The child should feel like an equal member of the children's team. Fulfilling the same requirements for everyone helps to understand the equality of responsibilities and rights of all children in the younger group. Children most often quickly learn these requirements. They ensure the development of elements of discipline and collectivism.
A joint way of life during moral education in kindergarten should be built on the basis of common emotional experiences. Matinees, New Year's holidays, interesting games and activities bring children together and strengthen their friendships.
To form friendly relationships with peers, the teacher must actively involve children in situations that require attention, care, and sympathy. With such upbringing, children will gradually learn to take care of their comrades on their own, without the help of a teacher.
In moral education in the younger group, play becomes a school of moral behavior. Educators in games with simple plots must achieve positive moral content in the real and play relationships of children with each other, as members of a single team.
The teacher must teach children to show voluntary compliance. This is not difficult to do if you have a large number of similar objects and toys that are designed to meet the needs of all children.
During moral education in kindergarten, it is very important to accustom children to basic cooperation and to carry out collective assignments.

Progress of the lesson Educator:
My dear guys, before we start our lesson, as before starting any business, we will ask for God’s blessing:
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. God bless!
- Now, sit back and listen to the poem that I. Kosyakov wrote and it’s called “She’s All”
I will read the beginning of the line, and you will finish it.
“Who loves you kids more?
Who loves you so tenderly?
And takes care of you without closing his eyes at night?
Children: “
Dear Mom.”
Educator:
Who rocks the cradle for you?
Who sings your songs?
Who tells you fairy tales?
And gives you toys? Children
: - “Dear Mom”
Educator:
If, children, you are lazy
Naughty, playful,
What happens sometimes -
Who is shedding tears then? Children: -
“She’s all my dear”
Educator:
-Yes, guys, this is all our beloved, dear mother, she cares so much about us, loves us so much. But you and I, and all the people of the Earth, also have one more mother - the Mother of God. Queen of Heaven.
-Who is the Mother of God? Children:
This is the mother of Jesus Christ.
Educator:
-That's right. Our Lady loves us and constantly prays for us before the Lord. What do we know about the Mother of God?
I will now show you pictures from our children's Gospel, and you will tell me what event from the life of the Virgin Mary is depicted here? (Hangs up a picture of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary).
Educator:
-Tell me, guys, what does this image tell us?
Children:
This is the Nativity of the Virgin Mary.
Educator:
- Correct.
What were the names of the Virgin Mary's parents? Children.
Joachim and Anna.
Educator:
- Well done. We move on to the next picture (Introduction to the Temple of the Blessed Virgin Mary).
-What event is depicted here? Children:
Introduction to the Temple of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Educator:
- That's right. Let's move on to the next one (Annunciation).
- What do we see here? Children:
The angel Gabriel appeared to the Virgin Mary and brought Her the news that She would give birth to a Son and She would give Him the name Jesus.
Educator:
- That's right, children. At different times, in different countries, people needed the intercession of the Mother of God, received from Her the assurance that She heard their prayers, and often were even honored to see the Lady Herself.
Remember, guys, I told you about one saint - Blessed Andrew. This saint saw the Holy Mother of God on earth. And it was like that.
There was a war going on in the distant country of Byzantium. The city of Constantinople was besieged by enemies. Day and night in the City Temples, people prayed to the Lord for salvation from the enemies of their city. On one of these days, during prayer, when the Temple was full of people, Blessed Andrew and his disciple Epiphanius stood among them. Suddenly blessed Andrew raised his gaze to heaven and saw the Most Holy Theotokos walking through the air, illuminated by heavenly light and surrounded by saints and angels. The Baptist of the Lord John and the Apostle John the Theologian accompanied the Queen of Heaven.
Kneeling down, the Blessed Virgin remained in prayer for a long time. Having finished praying, She took off the cover from Her Head and spread it over all the praying people, protecting them from enemies visible and invisible. And this cover in the hands of the Lady “shone brighter than the rays of the sun.” Saint Andrew asked his disciple Epiphanius standing next to him: “Do you see the Queen and Lady?”
“I see,” answered Epiphany, “and my heart skips a beat.”
The Most Holy Theotokos asked Her Son, Jesus Christ, to accept the prayer of all people and fulfill their requests. The Lord heard His Mother’s prayer and the enemy retreated - the people were saved.
In memory of this event, a tradition was established - on October 14, to celebrate the Day of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
“And now they will bring in a real Icon of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos for you and me.”
(they bring in the Icon - the teacher places it on the easel).
Educator:
-Children, how did the icon painter make us understand that the actions take place in the Temple?
Children:
We see Icons, the deacon, the Royal Doors.
Educator:
- How can we recognize the image of the Most Pure Lady on the Icon?
Children:
The Most Holy Theotokos is depicted in the center of the Icon; we recognized Her by her attire).
Educator:
- Is it possible to find on the Icon an image of blessed Andrew and his disciple Epiphanius?
Children:
St. Blessed Andrew is depicted barefoot, he leaned towards Epiphanius, and with one hand points to the Queen of Heaven.
Educator:
Now we will place our Icon in our holy corner and light a candle.
Today, in all the Temples of our Holy Rus', Orthodox people glorify the Mother of God with prayers and chants. We'll listen to them now too. (standing, we listen to the chant “It is worthy to eat...”) Educator:
And it is no coincidence that the Feast of the Intercession falls in the fall. The peasants worked very hard, trying to remove all the harvest from the field. Remember the proverbs about this time, about weather changes.
Children. “In autumn, one day feeds all day,”
“Autumn - eight changes”, “In autumn even the sparrow has a feast.”
Educator:
People have written many proverbs about the Intercession. After all, the Intercession in the village was considered the beginning of the onset of winter.
- “The veil will cover the earth, sometimes with leaves, sometimes with snow,”
- “Cover - first frost.”
During Pokrov, peasants tried to observe the weather in order to predict what the winter would be like.
— “On Pokrov, the wind from the east means a cold winter,”
— “Like the Veil, so is autumn.”
Just as the Most Holy Theotokos loves us, covering us with her blanket, so Mother Nature takes care of the earth and covers it first with leaves and then with a blanket of snow, protecting it from the winter cold. Every autumn, trees shed their leaves to the ground. and then the snow begins to fall.
Now we will also make a leafy blanket. (Children cut out different leaves to the music)
Educator:
- Take your leaves and go out onto the mat. Imagine, guys, that we are trees: the body is a trunk, the arms are branches, and there are leaves on the branches.
The wind blew - the “branches” swayed, the leaves trembled. The wind died down and the leaves quietly fell to the “ground.” This is how beautiful our deciduous carpet turned out.
- What holiday were we talking about today?
Children. About the Feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Educator:
What would you wish our guests in honor of the Holiday?
Children:
Love, health, peace, joy, success.
Educator:
- And I wish that with your spiritual gaze you would see this bright Veil over the whole world, rejoice in it and find joy and consolation in it.
