“Rocket” – GCD for paper construction
Smirnova Irina Grigorievna Tregubova Larisa Viktorovna Grebenikova Tatyana Alekseevna educators MBDOU "Kindergarten of the village of Tomarovka of the Yakovlevsky urban district"
The material was sent for publication in the All-Russian printed collection of practice-oriented materials “Preschool and primary education - modern methods and technologies of teaching and upbringing” - July-August 2022.
ROCKET NOD in the senior group - paper construction
Goal: to expand children's understanding of space. To develop the ability to create a three-dimensional design of paper rockets using a diagram and a sample.

Tasks:
- Educational: consolidate the names of geometric shapes: circle, rectangle, triangle; construction parts: cone, cylinder, cube. Teach children how to twist a rectangle into a cylinder, a circle into a cone.
- Developmental: develop design skills, the ability to convey the expressiveness of a composition, using the features of paper as a design material. Develop spatial thinking, imagination, and the ability to make inferences. Form a critical attitude towards your actions, objectively evaluate your work and the work of your comrades.
- Educational: to cultivate interest in paper construction. To cultivate accuracy in working with glue and scissors, independence, and initiative. Cultivate a desire to help a friend.
Integration of educational areas : Speech development, cognitive development, artistic and aesthetic development.
Enrichment and activation of the dictionary: Space, cosmodrome, planets, astronaut, orbit, body, nozzles, porthole, design bureau.
Methods and techniques: game problem situation, riddle, conversation - dialogue, looking at illustrations, outdoor play, verbal play, productive activity of children, self-analysis of work, summing up - reflection.
Equipment: a letter asking for help, illustrations depicting rockets, a sample of a finished rocket, parts of a three-dimensional construction set, an audio recording of space music.
Handouts: rocket design diagrams, cardboard, colored paper, scissors, glue, napkins, oilcloth.
Progress of continuous educational activities:
Cheerful music plays and children join the group.
Educator: Guys, today we have guests, let's say hello and invite them to come.
Children: hello!
Educator:
We will all stand in a circle together, You are my friend and I am your friend, Let’s hold hands tightly and smile at each other.
The teacher makes a riddle about space.
Educator: Guys, it’s not in vain that we started talking about space! Today our group received a letter asking for help. Shall we read it? (Yes!)
Educator: Dear guys! Soon there will be an epidemic on the planet “Zhelezyaka”! All the rockets and aircraft here have broken down, and the robots cannot make their flights. Help!
Guys, let's help the robots from the planet "Zhelezyaka"? How can we help robots?
Children's answers: Make rockets and launch them into space onto the planet.
Educator: Can you?
Children: Yes!
Educator: Who creates rockets? (designers, engineers)
Educator: today I suggest you be designers and design rockets for the inhabitants of the planet “Zhelezyaka”. I, as the chief designer, propose to consider rockets (there are illustrations of rockets on the easel)
Next, children examine a sample of a finished rocket made of colored paper and cardboard.
Educator: What parts is the rocket made of?
Children's answers: The nose of the rocket is made of a cone, the main part - the body - is made of a cylinder, the nozzles are made of triangles, the windows are made of circles.
Educator: but before you start creating rockets, do you want to play? (Yes!)
Outdoor game “Lay out the details of the construction set”
Children are divided into two teams and come up with a cosmic name for their team. Countdown: 3, 2, 1 – Start!
After the game, the teacher says that creating a rocket is a difficult and responsible job. You can pair up, agree on who will do what, and help each other.
Educator: please go to the design bureau!
Repetition of the rules for working with scissors and glue.
- Scissors must not be left open.
- You should not bring scissors close to your face.
- Pass the scissors to each other with the rings first, not the tip.
- Handle the glue carefully.
Look how many dangerous objects are lying around! If you do not follow safety precautions, you can injure yourself or a neighbor!
Educator: Guys, we have a problem! As you already said, to design a rocket you need a cone and a cylinder, we don’t have them.
But there is a design scheme. She will help us.
Look at it carefully and tell me, from what geometric figure can you get a large cylinder?
Children's answers: from a large rectangle, twisting it into a cylinder - a rocket body; from the circle, twisting it - the nose part. We attach the airlocks - triangles, and the portholes - circles to the body.
Educator: It's time to get to work (on the tables there is a set of geometric shapes for each child - a large rectangle, a circle, two triangles, small circles for portholes). During the activity, the teacher provides individual assistance.
Children place finished rockets in one line at the Mechta cosmodrome
Presentation of finished works
Educator: What beautiful rockets you have made, but can all rockets fly to the planet “Zhelezyaka”?
I'll give you one gold star. This is your voice. You will give it away - vote for your favorite work - (put a star next to the rocket).
Which rocket gets the most stars will be considered the best. (This is how children perform visual analysis of work)
Educator: Well done designers! Everyone did it! Will the inhabitants of the planet “Zhelezyaka” like your rockets? (Yes!). Applause!
Educator: Guys, I’m wondering
- -What are people called who fly into space on spaceships? (astronauts)
- -What was the name of the world's first astronaut? (Yuri Gagarin)
- -What was the name of the ship that lifted him into the sky? ("East")
Guys, do any of you want to become an astronaut?
To become an astronaut, what qualities do you need to have? (to be strong, courageous, resilient, responsible)
Educator: You are right, but astronauts must also follow the rules.
Word game "Space rules"
- If you want to become an astronaut, you must know a lot, a lot...!
- Any space route is open to those who love... work.
- Only friendly starships can take with them…on a flight.
- We will not take the boring, gloomy and angry into… orbits.
- Our main rule is to carry out any... order
- Fast rockets are waiting for us to fly to... planets.
- Whichever one we want, that’s the one… we’ll fly.
Let's train like astronauts and fly. I think that now the robots from the planet “Zhelezyaka” will invite us to visit.
Reflection: Guys, what did we do today? Who did they help? What games did you play? Was it difficult for you? What was the most difficult thing? What did you like most? Children's answers.
