Researchers. Teacher. -Is a person always fair to the forest? Is it not his fault that ecological problems forests? On the desk.

PROBLEMS


1 student. Why do people cut down forests? For timber harvesting. Previously, they cut down with an ax, but now logging is destroying entire tracts of forest.So it's a forest problem.

CUTTING

- What other problems does the forest have?2 student. Man has long killed animals to get food, but this was necessary for the survival of people, but they killed as much as they could eat. Now, excessive hunting has led to the complete or almost complete extermination of some animal species. Currently, hunting of forest animals is limited, and poaching is punishable by law. Many species of rare animals are taken under protection, and plants and animals listed in the Red Book are under special protection.Display of the Red Book.This means another forest problem.

ILLEGAL HUNTING (POACHING)

After all, the forest is also a source of knowledge.Teacher's story (from Boris Zubkov's book “What the Bat Suggested”)"Autumn. Leaves wither and turn yellow. I just don’t want the leaves to part with the tree. And the wind gets stronger, tries to tear off the leaf, cold ground quit. But one leaf of the edge was bent, almost curled into a tube. A tube-leaf exposes its round sides to the wind; the wind blows on it from all sides, but cannot tear it off. Why? Let's do an experiment, guys! Grab the edges of a piece of paper and lift it up. The sheet will immediately bend. Roll the paper tightly into a tube. Now try to bend and break such a tube. Difficult? So the wind is powerless against a sheet bent into a tube. One day a man saw such a leaf. And he conceived a bridge across the river, also like a leaf-tube. Big Bridge, a thousand meters long. The resulting bridge is very strong. Because it looked like a leaf of wood, rolled into a strong, rigid tube.”These are the discoveries nature suggested to man and awakened his creative thought. Means.

Feed the Russian forest.

And the thirst will torment -

That's a little forest guy for me

Among the thorny thickets

The fontanel will show.

I’ll bend over to him to get a drink -

And you can see everything to the bottom.

Water flows

Tasty and cold.

A rowan tree is waiting for us in the forest,

Nuts and flowers.

Fragrant raspberry

On dense bushes.

I'm looking for a mushroom clearing

I, without sparing my legs,

And if I get tired -

I'll sit down on a tree stump.

The forest loves pedestrians very much,

For them, he is completely his own.

There's a goblin wandering around here somewhere

With a green beard.

Life seems different

And my heart doesn't hurt

When over your head,

Like eternity, the forest is noisy.

IV. Incorporating new knowledge into the knowledge system. Practical activities.

1 Teacher's story.

– Each of us should think about how our descendants will see the forests in centuries, in millennia, and whether the forest can give them what it gives us now. After all, the forest is also a source of knowledge.

The story is based on Boris Zubkov’s book “What the Bat Suggested.”

"Autumn. Leaves wither and turn yellow. I just don’t want the leaves to part with the tree. And the wind gets stronger, trying to tear off a leaf and throw it on the cold ground. But one leaf of the edge was bent, almost curled into a tube. A leaf tube exposes its round sides to the wind, the wind blows on it from all sides, but cannot tear it off. Why?

Let's do an experiment, guys! Grab the edges of a piece of paper and lift it up. The sheet will immediately bend. Roll the paper tightly into a tube. Now try to bend and break such a tube. Difficult? So the wind is powerless against a sheet bent into a tube. One day a man saw such a leaf. And he conceived a bridge across the river, also like a leaf-tube. A large bridge, a thousand meters long. The resulting bridge is very strong. Because it looked like a leaf of wood, rolled into a strong, rigid tube.”

These are the discoveries nature suggested to man and awakened his creative thought.

This means that nature (forest) is a source of knowledge

We opened our diaries and wrote down our homework.

2) Notebook page 51-52

Thank you very much for lesson!

Forest is an ecological a complex system, with many links. Trees, shrubs, lichens, grasses, mosses, fungi, animals and various microorganisms are all components of forests. Each plant or Living being is an integral part of the forest zone and is included in the food chain. Plants produce oxygen and sugar. Herbivores feed on plants and distribute their seeds. And predators feed on these herbivores.

Thus, the forest is the basis for the life of the animal world within. Rivers, streams and various lakes are also an important component of the forest.

(Bamboo forest)

Forests are growing in different conditions, both cold and hot. Forests include not only coniferous, deciduous, mixed and evergreen. Jungles, taiga, jungles and other green spaces are also forests. Natural and artificial forests are distinguished. The creator of the first is nature, and the second is man. Today forests occupy 1/3 of the land, although in the distant past forest lands were much more numerous.

The importance of forests in nature

In nature, forests are of great importance. They contain many plant species and a large number of animals and microorganisms. In addition, forests perform a number of natural tasks. One of them is the production and purification of oxygen. The amount of oxygen produced by one tree is enough for three people.

Another significant function of forests in nature is to reduce dust levels. Every year, 1 hectare of forest stops up to 100 tons of dust. Forests regulate and improve the water balance of water bodies located within or nearby the forest. This happens due to the fact that forest floor accumulates moisture formed in spring period. It is this that helps maintain the full flow of rivers and reservoirs.

The forests serve as sound insulation; they can reduce the noise level from the road by 11 decibels. Forests prevent strong winds, increase humidity and air quality, and can also soften the climate. They serve as an air filter, purifying the air from harmful chemical substances. An important function of forests is to protect the soil from mudflows, landslides and various geological processes.

The importance of forests in human life

The forest has always played a huge role in human life. Today, the importance of forests is only increasing due to the fact that their number is noticeably decreasing. The role of forests in human life can be divided into three components - environmental, economic and social.

The environmental role lies in the quality environment and conservation of nature. Any living creature needs vital conditions for life. It is trees that contribute to the fact that modern people breathe clean air and have the opportunity to exercise agriculture and benefit from it.

For modern man forest plays big economic role. The wood from which they are made grows in the forests. Construction Materials, paper, furniture, wood fuel, food, material and medicinal products.

The main material resource is wood. But berries, mushrooms and medicinal plants that grow only in forests are also in demand by humans. Despite the fact that people are looking for a replacement forest resources, wood will always be in demand. Fossil fuels that replace wood are running out and are much more expensive than wood. Replacement paper bags I brought it to the plastic ones great harm land cover due to the fact that plastic is not recycled. Forestry industry often becomes a city-forming activity and requires a large number of workers and equipment. Therefore, the role of forests will always be very important both for the environment and the modern world.

The social role of the forest lies in the fact that it is a historical link. Forest is an element of the development of peoples, their cultures and attitudes towards nature. Since ancient times, the forest has been a source of resources necessary for survival - here you can find food, water, and shelter. Folk songs, fairy tales and stories always play an important role forest areas. Today, forests serve as a place for people to relax, relax and breathe fresh air.

Forests purify the air, keep rivers full, and protect soils from wind and water flows. People admire the beauty of the forest, relax in it, pick mushrooms, berries, and medicinal plants. In the forests there are plants and animals included in the Red Book of Russia. Caring attitude to the forest is the responsibility of every person!


Think and write down what role the forest plays in your life.

The forest is the main protector of the air, thanks to it I breathe clean air. It is also a vacation spot for me and my family.

Make a diagram based on the diagram in the textbook (The world around us, grade 4, p. 103), replacing the text with drawings and symbols.

Think about what environmental problems of forest zones are expressed by these signs. Formulate and write down.

Suggest conservation measures for class discussion that would help solve these problems.

Continue filling out the poster “Red Book of Russia”, which was drawn by Seryozha and Nadya’s dad. Find the plants and animals of forest zones on the poster and write their names.

Lady's slipper, ginseng, beauty beetle, relic woodcutter, stag beetle, mandarin duck, eagle owl, bison, Amur tiger

Come up with and draw symbols for the rules in the textbook (p. 107). Using these signs as a guide, talk about the rules for starting a fire.

How to make a fire

Children should not make a fire alone, without their elders

A fire is needed to cook food or keep warm. You can't dilute it unnecessarily.

You need to carefully choose a place for a fire. There should be nothing nearby that could catch fire.

It is better to make a fire in an old fire pit. If it is not there, you need to remove the turf (a layer of soil with plants) with a shovel and build a fire in the resulting hole.

When leaving, be sure to extinguish the fire: fill it with water or cover it with sand, and put the turf back in place.

Here you can make notes for your messages about one of forest plants or animals listed in the Red Book of Russia(according to the instructions of the textbook, p. 108).

Important information for message:

Lady's slipper is a plant of the orchid family. Plants from the genus Lady's slipper can be called one of the most the most beautiful flowers taiga The name of the plant, “Venus’s slipper,” comes from ancient times. IN old legend it is said that once the goddess of beauty Venus, fleeing from her pursuer, hid in northern forests among marshy swamps and dark, tall trees. Suddenly, the beautiful Venus stumbled, and the golden shoe with red satin ribbons flew off her foot and turned into a beautiful flower.
But the flower of the lady’s slipper is really very similar to the graceful slipper of a beauty. That’s why people called it “the Mother of God’s boots,” “Maryin’s slipper,” and “cuckoo’s slipper.”
The lady's slipper blooms for a long time, almost a month. But the Lady's slipper does not favor herbivorous forest animals. To avoid being eaten by moose or hares, it accumulates a bitter, toxic substance in its leaves. This substance is a real protective agent.
IN folk medicine This flower is popular as a sedative for insomnia. It is also used for headaches.
