Sedova K.N. Environmental project “Nature in our hands” // Sovushka. 2020. N1 (15). URL: https://kssovushka.ru/zhurnal/15/ (access date: 10.10.2020).
Order No. 246709
The time has come when man begins to remember that he is part of nature. The time has come when people begin to understand the laws of nature. If we all learned to live in consultation and harmony with ourselves, nature, the world around us, how the world would change in one moment.
We are the masters of our nature, and it is the storehouse of the sun with all the treasures of life. Fish need water, birds need air, animals need forests, steppes, mountains, and humans need nature. And protecting it is our main goal. Let's take care of her!
The formation of an environmental culture should begin in kindergarten. Since the ecological self-awareness of children is not sufficiently formed, based on this, it is possible to formulate the goal of the project and its objectives.
