Progress of the lesson
I. Organizational moment. Emotional mood
We're in a great mood
And smiles are a common thing.
Let's wish each other well,
It's time for us to start talking.
II. Introduction to the topic
1. Working on a crossword puzzle.
Guys, to find out what we will talk about today, I suggest you solve the crossword puzzle.
Fill in the names of the items on the tree. Vertically you can read the topic of our lesson.
II. Work on the topic
1. A story with elements of conversation.
Today we will talk about tourism.
- What does the word “tourism” mean? (Children's answers).
Let's turn to the dictionary.
Tourism
- Type of sport – group hikes that physically condition the body.
- Type of travel made for recreation and self-education.
And who doesn't like to travel? The thirst for learning new things is probably inherent in each of us.
People have been traveling since ancient times.
Even ancient tribes, in order to find the best places to live, were forced to make long marches and journeys.
There are different ways to travel. How? (Children's answers).
In order for the trip to go well, you need to draw up a route in advance, that is, a planned route to follow.
Find synonyms for the word “travel”.
(Path, road, expedition, hike, excursion, cruise, etc.)
To always be healthy,
We need to go on a hike,
Relax in nature.
Breathe fresh air.
- Guys, why do people go hiking? (Children's answers).
(Temper the body; develop strength, endurance; get acquainted with the nature of your native land, sights; admire the beauty of nature; lift your spirits).
2. Work on the riddle.
Guess the riddle. What do they call people who go on a hike?
He carries the weight on himself,
And if he gets tired, he will throw him to the ground.
(Tourist).
Anyone who wants to become a real tourist must know and be able to do a lot: how to navigate the terrain, how to set up a tent, make a fire; understand plants and mushrooms; know the habits of animals and birds; environmental safety rules; providing first aid.
We're on a science trip
Let's go today.
Attention, ingenuity
We'll take it with us.
3. Work in groups “What do we take with us on a hike.”
The journey may be long or may take several hours. When going on a hike, tourists should know what to take with them.
Let's go on a hike
Guess who's coming?
No, not guys with backpacks
And not aunts with bowler hats,
And not the older brother with the mustache...
No! We are going on a hike ourselves!
I. Roslova
Imagine that you and I are going on a hike in the nearest forest, without spending the night. Make a list of what you need to take.
(The guys make lists of necessary things for the hike).
(Discussion of answers)
If you are going on a hike,
Don't forget to take your backpack,
Without him on any trip,
There is no way around it.
And you also need a compass,
Mug, spoon, knife, axe,
So that you, having cut the branches,
They could have lit a fire.
You can take your gear with you.
To catch fish,
And also a bigger boiler,
To cook fish soup in it.
You still need a tent,
To have somewhere to sleep,
And a hammock to swing
And take a nap in the shade.
And, of course, products
For about six days,
You need to take your mother with you,
Prepare you something to eat.
Need a carrying bag
My favorite dog sits in it.
And of course dad,
So that he can carry it all.
And so that happiness is complete
I'll give you one more piece of advice:
Be sure to put
In your backpack there is a bag of sweets.
I. Butrimova
4. Game “Edible - inedible”.
It is important to eat well while hiking.
We definitely take food with us, but suddenly the unexpected happens.
You call those who are ready to help you your friends. Not only people, but also plants can be friends! They feed and clothe us, help us study and treat us.
What do you think you can eat if you are left without food?
The teacher throws the ball to the children, calling out the names of edible and inedible berries and mushrooms.
(Strawberries, boletus, fly agaric, rose hips, raspberries, boletus, blueberries, toadstool, chanterelles, lingonberries, wolf's bast, boletus, porcini mushroom, false honey mushrooms, blueberries, raven's eye, camelina, russula, satanic mushroom, lily of the valley, milk mushroom)
Remember dangerous berries and mushrooms.
5. Surprises of a forest clearing or “Hike troubles.”
An accident could happen to someone while hiking.
You can fall behind the group and get lost, get hurt, or get bitten by an insect or snake.
Game “Say the Word.”
There is no end to the line
Where are the three dots?
Who will come up with the end?
He will be great.
Making my way through the bushes
Stand back a little.
And to the one who is ahead,
Don't go too close.
Otherwise it's accurate
It will hit the eye... (branch).
Don't drink water from the river,
Microbes swim in it
But much worse
Drink from a dirty... (puddle).
Look at the good guys:
Cheerful and lively,
Dragging from all over
Material for construction.
One suddenly stumbled
Under a heavy burden
And a friend rushes to the rescue -
The people here are good.
Without a job, for the life of me
Can’t live... (ant).
She keeps buzzing, buzzing,
It circles and circles above the flower.
She sat down and took the juice from the flower,
Honey is prepared for us... (bee).
Missed my ear
It looks like a fly, but not a fly.
This fly didn't buzz
Guys, she has a sting!
If it stings, it will be “ouch”!
Who is this? Guess it!
A fly with a sting? Miracles!
Everyone knows that this is... (wasp).
There is a gap between the windows
A furry... (bumblebee) flew into the gap.
The rope is crawling along the ground.
Here is the tongue, the open mouth,
I'm ready to bite everyone,
Because I am... (snake).
If trouble occurs, you must be able to provide first aid to yourself or a friend for minor injuries: wounds, burns, bruises, splinters, bites.
Let's remember the rules of first aid.
6. Drawing up a memo “If you get lost.”
Hasty path
He keeps his way from afar.
A path winds through the forest,
Like a thread from a ball.
You stared at a beautiful butterfly and fell behind the group. What to do?
(Children's answers).
- Don't panic, try to calm down.
- If you have a phone, call.
- Try to remember what noticeable places you met along the way. (Power lines, stream, special trees, etc.)
- Try to attract attention by shouting loudly.
- Don't run through the forest! Stay in one place!
- Rest assured, they will definitely find you.
So as not to get lost on the way,
Don't suddenly fall behind the group,
The compass will definitely come in handy.
Know where is north and where is south.
A. Nevzorov
What if there is no compass? Every tourist should be able to navigate the terrain; you need to know natural signs that will help you do this.
7. Game “This is me, this is me, these are all my friends.” Rules of behavior in nature.
Guys, if you agree with the content of the lines, then you unanimously answer, “This is me, this is me, these are all my friends,” if not, then we say, “This is not me, this is not me, these are not my friends.”
When I saw the fly agaric
I'm passing by friends.
The chick fell out of the nest,
We can't touch him.
Who collects lingonberries?
Does it pull out the bush by the roots?
Who walks along the path,
Don't step on bugs?
We don't break branches,
When we walk through the forest.
We saw a hedgehog
And they took him home.
We will find the anthill
Let's watch and leave.
We took the tape recorder into the woods
And they drowned out the birds' voice.
We'll take the dogs into the forest,
The birds will be calmer in it.
I'll pick lilies of the valley in the forest,
I'll bring it to my mom for the holiday.
We trample and knock down edible mushrooms,
And we collect the inedible ones in a basket.
You, man, loving nature
At least sometimes feel sorry for her:
On pleasure trips
Don't trample its fields.
M. Plyatskovsky
III. Summary of the lesson. Reflection
Guys, our journey has come to an end.
Well, now the time is up
It's time to go home.
A lot of impressions
Nature gave it to us.
N. Machneva
Complete the sentence:

The tourist, having overcome the swamp, must take one leaf, clearing the spring. Moreover, the next player should not start moving until the previous player takes his piece of paper. When the spring is cleared, make up a word from the letters written on the pieces of paper. This word is the name of your team. So, let's start!

"We're going on a hike"
Tourism is an excellent and effective means of raising a healthy and seasoned person. It may not provide such muscle development as other sports, but the health of a tourist can be the envy of many. He is not afraid to get his feet wet, he is not afraid of catching a cold in the wind, or getting wet in the rain. Tourism strengthens you like no other sport.
Tourism activities develop in a person a number of very valuable qualities. A tourist knows how to walk correctly, light a fire, cook porridge, navigate correctly and not get lost in the forest, and quickly mend clothes.
During schoolchildren's tourist trips, much of the knowledge acquired in the lessons of geography, biology, mathematics, astronomy, and local history comes to life and receives a completely new meaning, which is sometimes acquired formally and remains a burdening memory ballast, unsuitable for any use. But tourism is not only a means of physical and applied education. The role of tourism in moral and spiritual education, socialization and development of communicative qualities of schoolchildren is great.
Relevance The fact is that the topic of schoolchildren’s health has recently been widely discussed in the press by specialists of various profiles. Problems are identified and specific recommendations for getting out of the current situation are offered. Although educators have long considered nature to be an eternal source of thoughts and good feelings for children, in school practice the educational and cognitive opportunities of communication with nature are used extremely unsatisfactorily. Hiking can be recommended as an accessible means of developing environmental ethics in children and promoting health.
Goals:
· Testing the child’s knowledge of tourism skills, namely: the ability to pitch a tent, properly pack a backpack, and provide first aid.
· Physical education of children, instilling a love of work and the ability to work, acquisition by children of the skills necessary for camping life.
· Give children the opportunity to master all the intricacies of hiking.
· Developing students' endurance, attentiveness, perseverance in overcoming difficulties, agility, ingenuity, and determination.
to promote the new GTO complex and, on its basis, ensure further mass development of tourism, involvement of schoolchildren in hiking trips, travel and orienteering competitions.
Tasks:
Formation of interest in travel, introduction to the romance of camping life.
Raising an active, creative personality striving for harmony with oneself, with other people and with nature.
Forming a child’s self-confidence and supporting a passion for tourism.
Promotion of health, development of motor abilities of children.
Formation of skills of correct behavior on the street, in the forest, instilling a caring attitude toward nature and responsibility for its conservation.
Activities:
training participants on issues of autonomous survival in natural conditions;
practical study of various orienteering techniques;
mastering the skills of obtaining water and food, building a home, making simple household items;

I was taught as a child, I remember exactly:
No matter how much you change the order of the numbers,
But in total there will be no more of them.
And I naively believed in this myth!
I threw a sleeping bag and sneakers into my backpack,
Socks, toothbrush and pants,
T-shirts, matches, a spoon and a windbreaker,
Only the edge of the saw does not fit.
I suffered this way and that for a long time,
Until I remembered this simple lesson:
There is no point in moving objects.
Then I decided to go without boots.
My backpack is lopsided and too heavy to lift,
Something slammed into my back with an edge,
And I confess to you, I am pleased with myself,
He left, leaving the room in chaos.
But a faithful friend said to me, smiling:
“The backpack, brother, is not an example of first class.
It’s necessary to be neat and tidy here.”
And he folded everything easily and evenly at once.
What is it like?
Now it’s not easy to fool me!
Everything in life turns bad,
When it’s the wrong thing, the wrong thing, the wrong thing to put together.
You can't fold shoes with noodles,
Lies and a bold disposition do not stick,
Luck and idleness do not coincide,
And if you are strong, it does not mean you are right.
The days passed, and Danka and I continued to dream of peaks, we even started listening to bard songs to soak in the atmosphere. We also learned to make a fire, tried to sleep on the floor and carried all sorts of heavy things. In general, we prepared as best we could. But at the second meeting it turned out that this was not what we were preparing for, and no one would just let us into the mountains. In June, the whole group will go to a special sports camp, where they will learn everything in the world: how to pitch tents, make a fire, cook food on it, and even not get lost in the forest. Although the camp was not in the mountains, but in a nature reserve on the shore of a lake, we decided that it would be fun. After all, among other things, there you can go kayaking, play table tennis and volleyball, watch by the fire at night and even live on a desert island!
And at the second meeting we received our first task: pack a backpack! We were given lists of things to take with us, and after a week we had to come to school with our backpacks to be checked.
I immediately gave the list to my mother. She knows better where my things are. I wanted to ask her to pack the backpack, but then dad intervened:
Which one of you is going on a hike? A? How are you going to pack in the morning?
Well, dad... - I started to finish, but he looked at me sternly, and I stopped short.
To be honest, I didn’t see any problem in throwing things into the backpack and cheerfully got down to business.
First of all, I took out the sleeping bag I had bought specially from the closet. It was in a blue case and looked like a ball, only soft. I jumped on it a little, and then untied the strings and pulled it out into the light. The sleeping bag was good! Soft and shiny. I insisted that we buy a one-color one, without pictures, because I was going to become a serious tourist, and not just anyone! Grabbing a flashlight, I climbed into it headlong and began to study from the inside. The flashlight picked out islands of fabric and awakened the imagination. I saw monsters lurking in the corners, and with a hiss I fought them off with my feet. Having overcome all the evil spirits and having sweated thoroughly, I climbed out into the light and began to push the sleeping bag back into the cover. But for some reason he didn’t want to stuff himself in! The sleeping bag was clearly much larger than the bag.
How is that possible?! - I asked him indignantly. - You were placed there ten minutes ago!
The doorbell rang - Danka came. I threw down my sleeping bag and rushed to open it.
Danka entered the apartment and, without taking off his backpack, fell to the floor. His face was red and sweat was streaming down his forehead.
What are you doing? - I asked in amazement.
Give me something to drink,” he whispered.
Having somehow recovered my friend, I began to find out what had happened to him. It turned out that he was tired of carrying a backpack. I tried his backpack on myself, and it didn’t seem heavy at all. But I didn’t tell Dana this. Why upset?
“I have a problem,” I said.
Danka made a surprised face. That kind of thing, you know, with raised eyebrows and bulging eyes.
My sleeping bag won’t fit back in,” I explained.
Danka took the case from me and for some reason looked inside.
Why did you even take it out?
Check!
Danka looked into the cover again, sighed and began to stuff the sleeping bag into it. After suffering a little, he said: “We need to fold it,” and began to carefully turn the sleeping bag into a parallelepiped.
But no matter how much he suffered, the sleeping bag was larger than the cover.
Let’s go the logical route,” Danya said his favorite phrase and fell silent.
Let’s go,” I said. - Why are you standing there, logician?
How about we just put it in the backpack, without this stupid bag?
We stuffed the sleeping bag into the backpack, and I kept looking at the cover with regret. It was a shame to leave such a useful thing at home. “You never know?” - I thought and threw it on top.
The packing of things has just begun, and Danka and I are already pretty tired. But there was no time to rest; time was running out before the meeting. I gave Danka the list and, under his dictation, I looked for the things I needed and threw them into my backpack.
There were a lot of stupid things on the list. Tell me, why should I take two pairs of woolen socks with me? It's summer! I don’t even wear them in winter, I’m not small. And also leggings or warm woolen pants. Wow! It’s like we’re going on an expedition to the North Pole!
But the scarf on my head finally finished me off. Here I could not stand it and was indignant out loud:
What other scarf? Maybe we got the lists mixed up?
Why did they mix it up? - Danka was surprised.
Headscarf! So, the list is for girls! Tell me, did you take the scarf?
“I took it,” Danya answered quietly and lowered his head.
Which? - I was stunned.
“In a flower,” Danya stammered even more quietly.
Danka, where did you get your flowered scarf? - I didn’t believe my friend and laughed.
Things... Dan, maybe we can take it out, huh? They'll laugh.
This is how Danka’s backpack turned out to be unpacked. The scarf, as luck would have it, lay at the very bottom. He was so cute that I couldn’t resist and immediately tied him on my head.
I'm Alyonushka! - I giggled and began to curtsey.
You are an idiot! - Danya giggled. - Give it to me.
We started rushing around the apartment. I ran away, and Danka tried to take my mother’s scarf.
We were distracted from this activity by Olya’s phone call.
Are you ready? - she asked very sternly.
I looked around the room. The entire floor was littered with things, and Danka stood in the middle, victoriously clutching a handkerchief.
Almost,” I answered evasively.
Half an hour left, why are you bothering?
“We don’t have a sleeping bag here,” I began to make excuses. Don't tell her about the scarf!
Where is he not going?
Doesn't fit in the case.
What is yours like?
No, what kind of stupid questions are these? What a Spalnikovsky!
Blue,” I answered out loud.
No, flannelette or cotton?
Olya, why are you bothering me? A sleeping bag is like a sleeping bag. I don't have time, by the way.
Give me Danya,” she answered offendedly. I handed the phone to Danka.
He made a serious face and just nodded. Then he said: “Got it.”
“I found out what we should do with the sleeping bag,” he said joyfully, hanging up.
It turned out that it had to be rolled up by squeezing out the air. He, you know, is taking in air.
We spread the sleeping bag on the floor and began to roll it into a tube, crawling on our haunches and pressing it with our knees. On the third attempt, we still managed to stuff it into the case.
I'll never take it out again! - I threatened the sleeping bag.
How will you sleep? - Danya giggled.
But I won't! - I answered proudly and immediately became shy.
Danka just shrugged his shoulders.
Okay, let’s get ready, it’s time to go out,” he reminded.
Somehow we loaded all our things into our backpacks. True, Dankin doubled in size. I was surprised by this, but there was no time to ask questions, we ran to school. It was visible from my window, so we got there quickly and without incident. The whole company was already assembled. Vovka and Valerka were jostling and making faces at each other, Olya was trying to get Svetka to talk, and Egor and Svyatik were having an important conversation with Igor Petrovich about something.
Well, finally,” he smiled when he saw us. - So, take out all your things, we’ll learn how to pack a backpack.
For what? - Vovka was indignant.
“We just put them there,” Valerka supported him.
Screwed up, you say? I see, I see exactly what they screwed up. Give me your backpack.
Valerka proudly brought the backpack and placed it in front of Igor Petrovich. He began to feel him here and there.
Look, there’s something hard here on your back. How are you going? This thing will dig into your back. And then, it tilts to the right, see? It will outweigh you along the way! Remember,” he turned to us, “as soon as you pack your backpack in the morning, the whole day will go by!”
We spent the next two hours obediently taking things out and putting them back. They're tired, it's terrible. But you know, what’s interesting is that each time our backpacks became smaller and smaller. I even started looking around, thinking maybe someone was carrying things. But no, everything was in place. And what's the secret? Who knows?
