Ecological boundaries do not know state borders or natural boundaries - they are global.

Second presenter. The remarkable French writer Antoine de Saint-Exupery once remarked: “We are all passengers of one ship called “Earth”, and there is simply nowhere to transfer from it. Man today is not the ruler or king of nature. While admiring his intelligence, we must learn to doubly admire the harmony of nature.

First presenter. Now we propose to hold a competitive environmental game, which, we hope, will make you look at the world around you with different eyes.

First presenter: Another guest came to us - a junior class student. On Sunday he and his classmates went to the forest. Now you will listen to a story about how he spent his day off in the forest, and note the violations and mistakes that the schoolchildren, in your opinion, made. For each correctly noted error - 1 point.

The student comes out and reads the story.

Student's story.

With cheerful music we notified the forest - we have arrived. (Loud music will scare away animals and birds). The days were hot and dry, but in the forest the heat was not felt so much. A familiar path led us to a birch grove. Along the way we often came across mushrooms - porcini, boletus, russula. Some cut off the elastic legs of the mushrooms, some twisted them, and some pulled them out. All the mushrooms that we didn’t know were knocked down with sticks. (You should not pull out and knock down mushrooms - the mycelium is destroyed).

Halt. They quickly broke branches and lit a fire. (Dry wood is collected for the fire. Fires should not be lit in hot and dry weather). We brewed tea in a pot, had a snack and moved on. Before leaving, Petya threw away the cans and plastic bags, saying: “The microbes will destroy them anyway.” (These substances take 100-200 years to break down). The burning coals of the fire winked at us goodbye. (The coals should be covered with earth or filled with water). In the bushes we found the nest of some bird. They held the warm bluish eggs and put them back. (Bird eggs should not be touched.) The sun rose higher and higher above the horizon. It was getting hotter. At the edge of the forest we found a small hedgehog. Deciding that his mother had abandoned him, they took him with them - he would come in handy at school. (There is no need to take animals and chicks from the forest). We are already pretty tired. There are quite a lot of anthills in the forest. Petya decided to show us how formic acid is produced. He cut out sticks and began to pierce the entire anthill with them. A few minutes later we were happily sucking on ant sticks. (You should not push anything into the anthill.)

Gradually, clouds began to roll in, it began to get dark, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. But we were no longer afraid - we managed to run to a lonely tree and hide under it. (It is dangerous to hide under a lonely tree during a thunderstorm.)

We walked to the station with armfuls of meadow and forest flowers. (Meadow and forest flowers should not be picked). An hour later the train was already approaching the outskirts of the city. It was a fun day!

Teams call mistakes and earn points.

Third round: Trashball.

Second presenter. We move on to the sports competition. It's no secret that when walking, for example, in the park, we often leave behind a wide variety of heaps of garbage, pieces of paper, etc. This happens even when the ballot boxes are nearby. We just can’t even get into them. So let’s conduct such an experiment now. You need to throw the crumpled sheets of paper exactly into the trash bin. For each hit - a point.

There is a competition going on.

Fourth round: Intellectual.

First presenter: You have cards on your table, these are two proverbs about nature. Your task is to collect them in 1 minute. The competition is worth 2 points.
Time has passed.
First team.
1. New Year - a turn towards spring.
2. January is the beginning of the year, the middle of winter.

Second team.
1. In winter, everyone loves a sheepskin coat.
2. Spring is red with flowers, autumn with sheaves.
Second presenter.
It's time to take stock. We ask the jury to count the teams' points and determine the winner.
First presenter: We ask the jury to name the winner.
We say in front of all the people:

To prolong nature's centuries,

Must help nature

Nature's friend is man.

So that the years rush by peacefully.

Century after century blossomed,

Be a friend to all nature

Every person should!

Goal: to intensify the cognitive activity of students in the field of ecology and nature conservation, to attract children’s attention to environmental problems of the environment, to cultivate a caring attitude towards nature, and to develop the ability to work in a team.

For each correct answer, the team receives one point. If the team to which the question was asked did not give the correct answer, the team that first raised the signal card has the right to answer.

Second round questions and answers

1. An animal, almost two times smaller than a squirrel. Gray or red. Five dark stripes run along the back. The animal lives in a hole, which it usually builds under fallen tree trunks or stumps. In summer and autumn, he stocks up pine nuts, cereal grains and tree seeds. He stuffs food into his cheek pouches and thus carries it to his house. The animal eats the prepared reserves after hibernation. What is the name of this animal? (This is a chipmunk.)

3. This is a beautiful forest giant with large horns on the male’s hook-nosed head. Its weight reaches 300–400 kg or more, its height is about two meters. This is a typical inhabitant of the taiga and swamps. It feeds on herbs, shoots of trees, shrubs, berries, and mushrooms. (Elk.)

4. A beautiful, active animal, with valuable fur, which brought him world fame. Lives in dense forests, feeds on mice, birds, and pine nuts. Now it is widespread in our region and is the subject of hunting. Of particular value is the Barguzin subspecies of the animal, with a higher quality skin, dark fur color with graying. (Sable.)

5. What kind of animal is this that has lost so much weight over the winter that it chews and gnaws everything that is green, that is alive, scurries around in the spring, and even finds carrion and feasts? The anthill is a particularly pleasant find. It will all be torn apart and scattered far around. When the snow melts from the moss swamps, he collects cranberries. Pike will go to the floods to spawn - and he will go there too. Who are we talking about? (We are talking about a bear.)

6. A wild cat the size of a dog, thick hair hangs on the sides of its head, and tassels adorn the tips of its ears. The animal's tail is short, as if cut off at the end. Hunts for hares, moose and deer, various rodents and birds. (Lynx.)

Third round “What do you know about them?”

Presenter: The world of plants is full of secrets and mysteries. Let's try to penetrate these mysteries and try to unravel some of them. The task of the third round, which you now have to complete, is related to the coniferous trees of our region. Each team has one minute to answer one question. If you answer correctly, you earn 1 point. If the team that was asked the question did not give the correct answer, the team that first raised the signal card has the right to answer.

Questions and answers for the third round

1. Pines growing in the forest lose their lower branches, while spruce branches remain until they are very old. Why? (Pine is a light-loving tree, and therefore its branches are drawn to the light. The lower branches, which lack light, die. Spruce is a shade-tolerant tree, so it also retains the lower branches.)

2. The storm upends spruce trees and breaks pine trees. Why? (The root system of pine trees goes to a considerable depth, so no wind can cope with it; it is easier to break the trunk. Spruce trees have a shallow root system, so a storm can easily uproot these plants.)

3. Which tree cannot be floated down the river and why? (Larch cannot be floated down the river, because it sinks, since its wood is heavy.)

4. Why don’t spruce branches break off in winter under the weight of snow? (The spruce branches have an inclined position, spring easily, the needles are arranged in tiles. At the slightest touch of a bird or animal, the snow slides off easily.)

5. Coniferous trees are called evergreens. Do their needles change? If yes, how does this happen? (Only larch sheds its needles for the winter. The remaining coniferous trees shed or renew their needles gradually; they change approximately 1/7 of their needles annually. Thus, it turns out that coniferous trees renew their needles once every seven years. In the city, due to polluted air this happens more often - once every 3-4 years.)

6. Why do spruce cones appear only at the top of the crown? (For cones to form, you need good lighting. This is also due to the fact that spruce seeds are spread by the wind.)

Fourth round “Green Friends”

Presenter: We devote the fifth round of our game to trees, shrubs and herbs. In this round, each team has the opportunity to score the maximum number of points - 6. Now you will work with cards with numbers: 1,2,3, which are on your table. I will read out the question and give three answer options; the teams’ task is to choose one of the options and raise the card with the corresponding number. 30 seconds are given to discuss the issue. For each correct answer the team receives 1 point.

Fourth round questions

1. The leaves of this tree are very mobile, they constantly fluctuate at the slightest gust of wind. This tree is considered the most restless, the most noisy.

Aspen.
Alder.

2. The buds, leaves, and shoots of this tree have long helped fight diseases and improve health; the bark and wood served as raw materials for making household items and warmed the home in winter.

Maple.
Birch.
Rowan.

3. This coniferous tree is the pride of the Siberian taiga. It looks like a pine tree, only in a bunch it has not two needles, like a pine tree, but five.

Promotion.
Larch.
Cedar

4. This is a very cheerful tree. It always smiles, and in the spring, when it is covered with fluffy white flowers, it even laughs. If its green buds have opened, it means that the earth has finally woken up and warmed up, and spring has entered into full force.

Bird cherry.
Linden.
Kalina.

5. This strong-smelling shrub is widespread in swamps and swampy coniferous forests. Often forms extensive thickets. Twigs or leaves of this plant are used to cover clothes to protect against moths. Has medicinal properties.

Currant.
Ledum.
Rose hip.

6. The medicinal properties of this plant have been known for a long time. If you chew its leaf, you will feel in your mouth for a long time, as if something had scorched it. Insects do not like the smell of this plant, so they put it in dog kennels to fight fleas, and old women in villages use brooms to sweep the floor.

Sagebrush.
Nettle.
Tansy.

Fifth round “Ecological”

Each team is asked one question for which it can earn 2 points. 1 minute to think.

1 team. The existence of a hare on Earth is not cloudless. Every now and then you hear bitter sighs about the fact that in our region there are 10 hunters for every hare. Unfortunately, this ratio is not that exaggerated. How do hares manage to survive? (They are saved by their fertility: there are up to 3–4 litters per year, and each has up to eight cubs.)

2nd team. Why is it that in those countries where there are few wolves left, they are taken under protection and even imported. (A decrease in the number of wolves leads to lack of food and diseases of herbivores, since wolves are orderlies in nature and regulate the number of herbivores.)

Team 3 Do hares bring benefit or harm to nature? (Benefit. Hares are a link in the food chain. The harm they cause by gnawing the bark of fruit trees is minimal compared to the benefits they bring to nature.)

Team 4 What adaptive traits help animals survive in the Far North. Warm-blooded animals have thick fur and a thick layer of subcutaneous fat.

5 team. How plants adapted to live in the desert . (The leaves have a small leaf surface, are covered with a waxy coating, and in some of them the leaves have turned into needles, like those of cacti.)

6th team. Name the habitats of the following animals: Arctic fox, snowy owl, lemming, reindeer. (Tundra.)

Sixth round “Through the pages of the Red Book”

Host: This tour is dedicated to rare animals and plants. Now I will read out the description, and in a minute of discussion you must determine what plant or animal we are talking about. You can earn extra points in this round. If the team that was asked the question answered incorrectly, then the right to answer goes to the team that first raised the signal card. For a correct answer, the team receives one point.

Description of animals and plants, answers:

1. At the beginning of flowering in May, this plant has neither leaves nor stem, but only a shaggy purple corolla. There is a belief that this plant has a soporific effect. (lumbago, sleep-grass.)

2. This plant was credited with miraculous powers; it was called overpowering grass. The plant got its name in honor of mythological nymphs. It grows in stagnant bodies of water, and when a flower is picked, it quickly closes and withers. (White water lily.)

3. Strong-smelling shrub up to 2 meters in height. Blooms before the leaves bloom. The flowers are pink. A highly decorative plant, it breaks off en masse into bouquets. (Rhododendron Daurian, Ledum.)

4. Unlike other predators, it is a real sea animal that rarely goes onto land. He spends his entire life in the ice of the Arctic seas, wandering in search of seals and other food. This is the largest of the land predators. (Polar bear.)

5. Wild cat. Lives in the Far East. The number of animals is approaching 150. (Amur tiger.)

6. Weighs up to 40 kg, and its length, including its tail, can be up to 1.5 meters. It feeds on sea urchins, mollusks, and crabs, getting them from the bottom, and therefore stays close to the shores. One of the few animals that can use tools. Having retrieved a sea urchin from the bottom, it lies on its back in the water and, deftly using its front paws, removes it from its shell with the help of a stone. (Kalan.)

Practical part of the material

As a result of the “Nature Experts” game, schoolchildren expand their knowledge about the flora and fauna of their native land, develop a desire to learn more about it, and develop the ability to work in a group.

The ecological game “Nature Experts” can be held as a mass event for students in grades 5-6 in secondary schools and additional education institutions. The composition of animals and plants can be selected taking into account the regional characteristics of the region.
