Before choosing the Egevideo center, you can see how biology seminars are conducted by tutor V.Yu. Yaroslavtseva.
Schedule and cost of classes in Moscow
- The series of seminars lasts from September to early June, but you can join the group at any time
- If necessary, the program can be adjusted to suit the student's needs.
- An express course is provided for students who need specific knowledge in certain areas of biology.
- The frequency of extracurricular activities is once a week for all groups.
- Cost 3000 rubles for 90 minutes.
Individual lessons - work in a corner of wildlife, work at a school experimental site, work in nature, extracurricular reading.
Group classes - a circle of young naturalists, the work of “assistants” of the office on its equipment.
Mass activities - lectures and film demonstrations, excursions and nature trips, scientific evenings and conferences, exhibitions of the work of Olympiad students, campaigns: Harvest Day, Garden Week, Bird Day, Biological KVN, etc.
Occasional group, circle and mass classes can be combined into a group of forms of collective extracurricular work.
An individual form of extracurricular work in biology is carried out in almost every school. Trying to satisfy the needs of individual students interested in biology, the teacher offers to make some observations in nature, read this or that popular science book, make a visual aid, select material for a stand, etc.
But in this case, it is necessary to find out the biological interests of schoolchildren, constantly keep them in sight, set a task - to develop their interests in one direction or another, select appropriate individual tasks for the implementation of this task, complicate and expand their content. Occasional group work is usually organized in connection with the preparation and holding of school public events, for example, a holiday dedicated to Bird Day, Forest Day, Garden Week, Health Week, etc.
To carry out such work, the teacher selects a group of students interested in biology, instructs them to find the necessary material, publish a wall newspaper, prepare reports, amateur artistic activities, etc.
Usually, after the completion of one or another mass event, the episodic group disintegrates, and then, after a certain period of time, in connection with the preparation and holding of another mass event, it is created again, and its composition changes significantly.
The circle of young naturalists is the main form of extracurricular activity. In contrast to episodic group work, a circle includes schoolchildren who systematically work in it for a year or a number of years. The composition of the circle is usually stable.
A large number of students are involved in mass work - several classes, the entire school. Mass extracurricular activities are characterized by a socially beneficial orientation. Typically, schools organize such types of mass work as holidays, evenings, campaigns, hours of entertaining biology, biological conferences, olympiads, etc.
Biological KVN (club of cheerful and resourceful people) includes two teams selected from several classes, each of which, 2-3 weeks before the start of the resourcefulness competition, prepares greetings for the opposing team, questions, riddles, poems and stories about living organisms. The presenter also prepares for KVN in advance.
A jury is elected to evaluate the teams' work during the competition. The biology teacher - the organizer of KVN - supervises all the work. The teacher recommends relevant literature to the team members, inquires about the progress of preparation, and advises how to implement their plans in the most interesting way possible.
Fans are invited to biological KVN - all interested students. The date of the KVN is announced in advance and an announcement is posted. Fan participation is also assessed and their scores are added to the scores received by the team they support. Hours of entertaining biology are usually organized in each class. The duration of one lesson is an academic hour.
Students prepare each hour of entertaining biology in advance. They select the necessary information from the literature recommended by the teacher, arrange it, and prepare visual aids.
When classes are given a playful form (for example, travel), facilitators are trained.
During the lesson itself, the presenter invites the schoolchildren to take a trip, names stopping points, during which pre-prepared youths report certain interesting information about plants (animals), etc.
The presenter invites participants to guess some biological riddles, solve crosswords, teawords, and answer quiz questions.
Various evenings are organized in a similar way.
Each evening is preceded by a lot of preparatory work: the program of the evening is developed, the topics of reports and messages are distributed among the organizers, the entertaining part of it is prepared (quiz questions, biological games, crosswords, chainwords, etc.), amateur performances (poems, dramatizations, songs, musical numbers , dancing), decoration of the hall, exhibitions of students' works.
All of the listed types of extracurricular work in biology are interconnected and complement each other.
In schools where extracurricular work in biology is well organized, there cannot be just one form of it. Carrying out mass events is necessarily associated with either individual or group work in their preparation, or with the work of a circle of young naturalists.
Biology is a science that studies living nature. Its modern name appeared only two centuries ago. The school curriculum is unthinkable without studying biology and its subsections - botany, anatomy, zoology. This subject is often chosen by graduates when taking the Unified State Exam and the Unified State Exam, which indicates its significance and popularity.
Many children want to learn more about this science than is expected in the curriculum. They have an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with its sections and features both in theory and in practice. In our city there are ecological and biological centers, laboratories, clubs and other institutions where young naturalists can become more deeply acquainted with the world of plants and animals and learn about environmental protection.
In addition to gaining new knowledge, children will be able to participate in scientific conferences and competitions, prepare for passing exams and entering higher education institutions. Contact with living nature instills in children kindness, sensitivity, attentiveness, and responsibility. The classes will be an excellent basis for educational and research activities, preparation of projects at various levels - from school to all-Russian.
What a young naturalist should know when conducting experiments with plants
Experiments are a great opportunity to get acquainted in practice with what the theory described. But before you start, it is important to remember that without accuracy and attentiveness it is better not to even start them. In addition, haste and the desire to speed up the process can do a disservice. Before the experiment, put on the table only what is needed for it: seeds, plants, soil, equipment, materials, etc. There should be nothing superfluous. If you are faced with the task of growing a plant, then you need to carefully care for it: loosen the soil, fertilize it and do not forget about weeding. You also need to have so-called control plants that are in the same conditions as those used in the experiment. The value of the experiment is enhanced by diary entries and drawings. After completing the experiments, be sure to write a conclusion - a report on the work done.
What are the advantages of practicing with a microscope?
Very often children ask questions that baffle their parents. For example, the seemingly simple question “Why does nettle burn the skin?” may cause difficulties. Of course, in the age of the Internet it is easy to find the answer, but take your time. Try to come to him with your child, as they say, through experience. A microscope will help you with this. After all, how interesting it will be for both you and your child to examine the structure of a nettle leaf under a microscope. Then the knowledge that you pick up on the Internet or in a book on entertaining biology will be an excellent addition to your experiments and will certainly be remembered. It is much easier to talk about the structure of a flower, about the cells, using a microscope. It will be an excellent stimulus for cognitive activity and will expand the child’s understanding of the world that surrounds us. Hence a deeper interest in the laws of biology and life on Earth in general. Having mastered the microscope, the child will try to independently find answers to the questions that arise. The most important thing is that the young biologist researcher will learn to notice the beauty of nature, and in the future, perhaps, will choose an interesting profession as a biologist.
The presentation was prepared for a biology game in grades 5-6. Any educational complex.
Target: Expanding students' horizons about early flowering plants.
Tasks: promote the development of cognitive activity of students; develop intellectual abilities and logical thinking; introduce students to primroses using riddles as an example.
The presentation contains riddles, answers to them and illustrations about early flowering plants. Changing slides and objects on them is done by clicking. First, the text of the riddle comes out, then the name of the plant and an illustration. For each correct answer - 1 point.
The extracurricular event “You'll be healthy, you'll get everything” takes place in the form of an intellectual game.
The goal of the intellectual game through game moments of the program is to set students up for a healthy lifestyle, develop healthy lifestyle habits, and introduce them to new information.
- identify how well students have information about what health and a healthy lifestyle are
- promote the formation of healthy lifestyle skills among students
Equipment: the office is decorated with posters with statements from writers, scientists, sayings about a healthy lifestyle, a multimedia projector, and a presentation.
This game is intended for children in grade 5. Suitable for biology week. The number of participating teams may vary, but not more than 5.
