The holiday of spring, beauty, the awakening of nature, the bright day of our dear women is March 8th.

It is better to interrupt the performance periodically for a music break (listening to a song about mom or singing about mom, teacher). It is interesting to introduce contests, quizzes, reading poetry into a fairy tale.
Contests
- "Designers". Children draw pictures on pre-prepared Whatman paper (or on the blackboard) according to the read assignment. It will be more interesting to divide students into two groups, each of which will draw its own portrait of a teacher, for example. Each student adds his detail to the portrait: glasses, a briefcase, etc. The team that drew the most details wins or the best, according to the jury.
- "Baba Yaga." This is an active gaming competition, for which you need two empty buckets and two brooms. Several people are selected from the class. Pupils are built in two. Each is given a broom and a bucket. The task is to quickly overcome a certain distance by placing one foot in a bucket, and the other moving on the floor and helping yourself with a broom. The winner is Baba Yaga.
- Intellectual competition. Divide students into groups. Offer students riddles. Show images of spring flowers and suggest guessing their names. The winner is determined by the maximum number of correct answers.

Scenes
A good variety of matinees can be pre-prepared scenes for March 8. In primary school, children will be interested if one of the adults, for example, the mothers of several students, becomes the participants in the performance. Usually scenes are comic and entertaining in nature. For example, it could be a scene “How Vasya helped mom”, where in a comic form depict how much work mom managed to redo while his son did homework, and in the end, mom and Vasya had to help with this. In the end, you need to give your mother flowers.
You can develop a number that displays the morning fees for school, involving not only mothers, but also fathers and other members of the schoolchildren’s family. You can also organize a sketch where students will dress like colorful flowers and recite poems. The teacher at the end of the sketch notes that children are the flowers of life and the best gift for mothers. And the kids gather in a symbolic bouquet. It will also be interesting to organize a playful scene where the girls portray their mothers when they are going to work.
Crafts for March 8
