Features of learning traffic rules in kindergarten
It is preschool age that influences life orientation in the environment, and everything that a child learns in kindergarten will remain firmly with him forever.
Main features of learning traffic rules in kindergarten
Objective of the project:
- to develop in preschoolers the skills to safely cross streets and roads in order to reduce road traffic injuries;
- to develop a culture of children’s behavior in the road environment.
Environmental education classes for preschoolers
Important! During the lesson, previously acquired knowledge is consolidated. The new concept is being expanded significantly. A kindergarten teacher teaches preschoolers to solve problem situations that arise on the roadway in the yard.
Junior group
The main goal of this program in the elementary group is to develop an understanding of the safety rules for traffic as a pedestrian and a passenger in a vehicle.
This goal is achieved through a variety of activities:
- game,
- communicative,
- labor,
- educational and research
- productive,
- musically - artistic.
To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve several problems:
- formation of an idea of the surrounding space;
- expansion of orientation in the surrounding space;
- formation of primary ideas about cars, streets, roads;
- familiarization with some types of transport;
- familiarization with the concepts of “street”, “road”, “traffic light”;
- formation of ideas about the driver’s work;
- formation of primary ideas about safe behavior on the roads (crossing the street holding the hand of an adult);
- increasing the competence of parents on issues related to traffic rules.
Middle group
The relevance of the project is due to the fact that preschoolers do not pay attention to the road situation. They discover something new for themselves and therefore have a scattered reaction to what is happening around them. Accordingly, the guys may face real danger. To do this, the kindergarten teacher talks with preschoolers about traffic rules. The teacher selects appropriate material (equipment) to consolidate skills.
Note! A puppet show on this topic is aimed at forming and developing in children the necessary skills for safe behavior on the roads.
Entertainment tasks according to traffic rules for preschoolers in the middle group:
- familiarization with traffic rules, street structure, road signs;
- forming an idea of the purpose of a traffic light and its signals.
Senior group
Entertainment for preschoolers in the senior traffic rules group has its main tasks:
- To develop knowledge about the meaning of some road signs (“Pedestrian, underground, overpass”, “Two-way traffic”, “No entry”).
- Develop and activate children's vocabulary.
- To instill in children responsibility for their safety and the lives of other people.
- Cultivate an interest in studying the world around us.
Preparatory group
The topic for the preparatory group “Young Pedestrian” is aimed at mastering traffic rules. Children should know that they need to navigate traffic situations competently. Therefore, the teacher recommends applying all your knowledge in practice.
Useful teaching materials
Important! The goal of the project is to systematize knowledge on traffic rules. Over time, they begin to behave correctly on city streets, in the yard and on public transport.
Additional leisure activities and activities
At leisure, important material is studied.
Additional events
Entertainment is provided on traffic rules in the preparatory group on the topic “Road ABC”.
The teacher chooses didactic games: “Traffic Light”, “Name the Sign”, “Careful Pedestrian Crossing”.
Next comes learning songs about road signs.
Then there is a tour to the traffic light.
Flash mobs
The kindergarten promotes the rules of safe behavior on the roads. The main task of this flash mob is to remind people of the differences between traffic lights and how to use them on the roads. The teacher teaches preschoolers a culture of behavior on the roads. To conduct a flash mob on traffic rules for preschool children, the teacher must select music, for example, the song “Traffic Rules.”
Note! On a specially installed sports stage, the guys begin to perform the “Wheels” dance. In addition, they begin to read poems about signs.
Performances
The scenario of the propaganda team on traffic rules for preschoolers, according to the content “Attention, pedestrian” according to the Federal State Educational Standard, may seem quite exciting entertainment to the children. The main goal of this event is to develop in children a conscious attitude towards compliance with traffic rules. The teacher fosters a cautious attitude towards dangerous situations on the street. A plan is drawn up in advance for the performance.
Initially, the teacher welcomes all preschoolers who must take part in this performance. Then a dance is staged to the music of V. Leontiev’s song “Traffic Light”. After completing the dance, the guys begin to perform the song “Song about a traffic light.” This is followed by the reading of the poem “You set an example for us.” A small scene follows: “Naughty little naughty.” Children read poems about signs again.
Preliminary work:
- The guys look at the illustrations, road signs and traffic lights together.
- Read memorized poems.
- They are holding a drawing competition on the topic “I am a pedestrian.”
- Learn basic traffic rules.
- They provide entertainment.
Theatrical performances
Everyone loves to take part in theatrical events.
Note! The teacher takes into account the abilities of each child and selects appropriate material. The theatrical performance takes place to the music of V. Leontiev’s song “Traffic Light”. Members of the propaganda team run onto the stage and begin to dance.
