PRE-SCHOOLERS’ ECO-EDUCATION THROUGH COGNITIVE-ARTISTIC ACTIVITIES

Working with pre-school age children we are trying to get them interested in the new topics, engage them in the wider range of activities. All knowledge about the world begins with the child's closest environment and his sensation of the relationship between him and his living and non-living nature. Children associate their new experience with the existing cognition and knowledge about the world. We understand this, so we strive to help children through a comprehensive approach to the surrounding environment, to organize activities so that pupils can learn, experience and discover that the world is not a set of isolated facts but a coherent whole. Our (teachers) role is to help children to observe an ordinary things and events. We are trying to convey all of this through drama, staging and motion. During the Feature-cognitive activities it’s easier and more interesting to present a variety of topics for children; this also helps children to remain more images. We have implemented a long-term environmental project in our institution, which aims to develop the child's experience, to awake the child's need to know the world around them. The method of project activities allows to reveal the child's ability to implement the ideas and gain new experiences. Children acquire the knowledge and experience of the environment by organizing creative activities during the shows, all of which reflects the learners' competencies. It has become a tradition to organize events designated to environmental children’s education. Key words: Eco-Education, ecology, pre-school age, education,creativity.
