PROGRESS OF THE CONVERSATION.
Educator: What are we up to today? Children: will go on a journey through different rooms. Educator: which rooms can you travel through? Children's answers Educator: the riddle that the poet Jovan Jovanovic came up with will help us - Zmaj, listen carefully! I want to invite us to one beautiful village. He was quite lucky, who was able to visit the din. There, every house and every yard is covered with a green roof, a carpet woven with flowers lies on the street. There are no fences or doors. The windows are open to the garden. Guests will be greeted there with songs and treated to great pleasure. Those who were lucky enough to be there saw miracles! And the unusual village is called... Children: Green Forest Teacher: how did you guess that the riddle is about a forest? The children are talking. Educator: Yes, our journey to the big green house and through its rooms.

Educator: remember what riddle Dunno told us this morning? Zhenya came first today and can repeat, let’s all listen carefully to Zhenya. Zhenya: “a multi-storey building that was not built by a person. With invisible walls and an invisible ceiling. This house has very different apartments. The upper floors are bright and dry. The lower floors are dark and damp. The house has warm apartments in which you can live all year round. There are cold apartments in which you can only live in summer or spring.” Author of the riddle: Ivanova Valentina Tarasovna Educator: why can you call a forest home?! Children: home, because plants and animals cannot live without each other. Educator: Do you know such residents who cannot live without each other in the forest? Children: express and prove their versions, lay out pictures of forest inhabitants connected to each other.

Educator: what are these invisible walls in this house that was not built by man? Children: you can walk through the forest and see different things, there are no walls, but still different. Educator: yes, the forest is very different! The pine trees rustle with dry lingonberry leaves.

Educator: where were we?

Children: In a pine forest. Educator: a pine forest is also called BOR. Let's go further and see an emerald carpet of blueberries.

Now which forest did you enter?

Children: to the coniferous forest. Educator: The coniferous forest is also called BOR. We moved to another room. Did you see the wall? Children: no, we moved from a pine forest to a spruce forest. Educator: yes, different rooms, different forests. Let's move on. The thicket of bushes is impassable. What is that growing there?

Children: raspberries Teacher: let's go further through the forest. We reached the swamp.

The forest has become sparse. We passed the swamp. And suddenly it became light all around. What forest pleases with light and whiteness?

ISAAC ILYICH LEVITAN “BIRCH GROVE” Children: birch forest Teacher: can you name the residents? Children name the forest inhabitants . Teacher: what kind of forest does the brown BEAR like? Children: where there are a lot of berries and a river. Educator: the bear is a predator, but if you eat plant foods, you can do without meat. He’ll catch a fish in the river, that’s enough for him. Because what is it called? Children: omnivore. Educator: well, where does the FOX like to live?

Children: in a hole, digs a hole among the roots. Educator: what are these invisible ceilings, why does the riddle say so?

Educator: what is the first floor? Children: roots underground, mice live, moles. Educator: who lives higher? Children: cuckoos live in the bushes and make nests. And the woodpecker is hollowing out the hollow even higher. A squirrel can make a hollow even higher than a woodpecker. Birds that like to be closer to the sky go higher. Educator: yes, falcon families. Which apartments are dry and bright? Children: those in the trees, squirrels and birds. Educator: Which ones are busy all year round? Children: in the summer, because many birds fly to warm countries for the winter. Educator: who has dark apartments? Bears, foxes, badgers, hedgehogs have children Educator: who guards the forest? Children: forester. Educator: forester, forester, forester. She comes from ancient professions; forests have been protected in Rus' for a long time. More than 150 years ago, a forestry institute was opened in St. Petersburg. Now it is the Forestry Academy, University or Institute

Here in the Urals, the Forestry Engineering University trains foresters who grow forests in all corners of Russia. So, why did people come up with the profession of forest rangers if the forest grows on its own without humans? We will find out if we go to the forestry university and become students of this university

CHILDREN SIT ON CHAIRS, IMITATING A UNIVERSITY AUDIENCE. Educator: Why does a forester guard the forest, and here’s why. What if there's a forest fire? What if a bad man comes with an ax? What if a harmful caterpillar or bug appears? So goodbye forest! And to prevent this from happening at the cordon, the forester goes around. He walks around the forest and is the first to see if a bark beetle appears.

The bark beetle is small, but can eat a large forest. There are so many beetles that they sit on every tree, they sit on every twig, gnawing and sharpening. You can't remove them with your hands. And then the forester calls for help. A plane will fly in and scatter yellow poisonous powder. The bark beetle runs in, but there is no escape, no escape. Educator: So why create a cordon? Children's answers Teacher: if you cut down a forest, then only old trees, and don't touch young trees, then there will be no harm. So they SWEEP the forest, they whip it - that means they are cutting down big old trees. The timber is transported by trucks - timber trucks.

Timber trucks transport long trees with chopped off branches - they are called WHIP. They cut down trees with saws.

When the whips are removed, in the large clearing where very old trees used to grow, only stumps remain. Educator: So, what trees do lumberjacks cut in the forest? Children's answers Teacher: so, how then is the forest restored? Who is planting it? Children: probably the forester? Educator: to confidently answer my question, listen further. And at the cordon - a forest post - near the forester's hut - there are beds! But it’s not tomatoes or cucumbers that grow in the beds. MIRACLE

small, fluffy Christmas trees are growing! When it’s hot, they are watered, and the soil around them is also loosened with a rake. Everything is like in a garden. The soil of the Christmas trees in the beds is black. And the pines have sand. Who loves what! In the spring of this forest nursery, seedlings - very young pines and fir trees - will be brought to the cutting site. Here they will be planted and a new forest will grow.

Educator: Why will the seedlings be brought to the cutting area? Children: because old trees were cut down there. Educator: And in seventy years he will become an adult. Fast or long? Here you are 6, and now you are 7 years old. On the Christmas tree, its age can be easily counted by the rows of paws, as if by steps. Or you can recognize it by the rings on the trunk of a cut tree.

So the most amazing thing is that one person will plant it, and people of another generation will use this tree; probably, it will be possible to say about them that these are the children of your future grandchildren or even great-grandchildren?! The tree grows very slowly. So who knows the GROWTH of the forest?! Children: FORESTRY. Educator : our journey is coming to an end, let's remember the poem by the poet Alexei Koltsov “The Forester's House.” To the soundtrack “Sounds of the Forest,” children recite the poem line by line. In a dark forest, across the river, there is a small house, With two bright windows, With swing gates. That gate is under the castle, And the gate is locked, So that the horned Leshy, terrible and shaggy, does not enter there; So that a ghoul does not enter there, nor a passing hero, who lives here alone, far from housing around? Is the fisherman not rich? Or is there a bearded robber who is saved by prayer with chests and treasury? He has lived in the house for a long time - The forest elder and his wife are on guard in the royal forest. The third daughter is young. Conclusion. Educator: we have returned from a trip through the forest rooms. What did you like best about the trip? Children's answer Teacher: what new did you learn? Children's answer Teacher: the forester handed you a treat, what do you think it could be? Children's answer Teacher: a basket of hazelnuts. Educator: is the forester alone protecting the forest? Children name people of different professions who help the forester. Thank you for your attention!

Ecological functions of the forest

Green areas establish the character and quality of the surrounding world, creating favorable living conditions:

The carbon function of forests is to absorb carbon dioxide from the air. The forest converts it into carbon, which accumulates in the wood, roots and branches of trees. Back green plants produce oxygen, which is necessary for all living things.
Air purifying function . The forest is a biological air filter. From the atmosphere it is able to capture polluting, toxic substances (nitrogen, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide) that settle on the foliage. Subsequently, the leaves fall off or are washed away by precipitation, forming the top layer of soil. Here, in small quantities, this foliage serves as fertilizer for trees and plants.

Forests are capable of absorbing and storing solar energy. The temperature regime on the planet depends on the amount of green space. In cities, buildings made of cement and concrete, asphalt roads, highways, and paving slabs predominate. These buildings raise the temperature. People take refuge in parks and squares, where green spaces create cool shade and refresh the air.

Water protection. Forests evaporate large amounts of water. This provides increased humidity not only in green areas, but also near adjacent areas. Forests contribute to precipitation. The moisture evaporated by trees returns to the atmospheric cycle. This creates conditions for the transfer of moisture deeper into the continent. Forests protect the banks from destruction and contribute to the recharge of groundwater. Due to the good permeability of the soil, groundwater provides a high level of water in rivers and other bodies of water. They also improve water quality.
Climatic and meteorological . The forest ecosystem creates a specific microclimate that protects roads, settlements, crops, and soil. For example, in fields that are surrounded by shelterbelts, conditions for farming are better.

Disappointing forecasts for green areas

Historically, forest areas were a source of food for primitive communities who lived by gathering and hunting. Green areas were both fuel and a construction resource for building homes. Over time, due to human needs for space for growing crops, for grazing livestock, procuring construction raw materials and cutting down for fuel, the green area of the planet is reducing its area.

Over the past hundred years, the planet has experienced significant population growth. At the same time, there are not enough natural resources for all humanity. Supplies of clean fresh water are limited, and large cities and megalopolises suffer from polluted air.

Unreasonable and irrational use of natural resources destroys wildlife and leads to irreversible consequences. Cutting down trees for timber, forest pollution from household waste, forest fires are huge problems that threaten the existence of forest areas.

The cleaning abilities of the forest lead to damage and death of plants. Harmful substances and poisons that are in the atmosphere fall on trees as dry deposition or acid precipitation. In significant doses, these poisons destroy tree tissue, poison and destroy the root system.

You can save forest areas in the following ways:

Plant young seedlings in cleared areas;
Sort waste and recycle waste paper;
When relaxing in the forest, pick up trash after yourself and make fires properly.

Economic functions of the forest

The forest gives people material resources and benefits that humanity cannot yet refuse. Deforestation provides people with wood. It is used in industrial and civil construction. The use of wood is extensive. It is used to make plywood, cellulose, pencils, furniture, paper, cardboard, and ethyl alcohol. As a result of the chemical treatment of wood - rosin and turpentine. The bark of some tree species is used in the leather industry.

The forest is a source of food for humans: berries, mushrooms, game. By placing apiaries in forest areas, beekeepers obtain unique honey, which is highly valued on the market. Medicinal plants are used in medicine. Forest resources serve as the basis for the fuel industry (firewood, fuel briquettes, raw materials for biofuel).
