TECHNIQUE OF HEALTH CULTURE EDUCATION OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN IN DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS

Abstract

The article deals with the experimental technique of health culture education of preschool children in different age groups, which involved staged sequential implementation of the pedagogical conditions according to the following stages: cognitive, reproductive and emotional. In order to implement the first pedagogical condition (the availability of the developmental health-saving environment, focused on the health culture education), the "Health Centre" has been created. The educational work in the centre involved role playing, different games, and projects. The creation of the centre was carried out at the cognitive stage. Children acquired knowledge about their health, organism, healthy lifestyle, etc. Such traits as purposefulness, leadership and independence in using the obtained knowledge have been developed in preschoolers. The implementation of the second pedagogical conditions (implementing health-saving elements into the physical education process) was carried out at the reproductive stage. This stage involved morning exercises, gymnastics, active games, fitball exercises, etc. At the emotional stage, the third pedagogical condition (stimulating the interaction of the preschool children of different age) was implemented. This condition provided organisation of the pedagogical interaction between all preschoolers of different age. This stage involved the following methods of work: study and game situations, recreational gymnastics, thematic parties, etc. The observed positive changes in the experimental groups of preschool children of different age after the completion of the experiment prove the efficiency of the suggested pedagogical conditions and the experimental technique of health culture education of preschool children in different age groups.
