Mom is the most beautiful tender word. It has a lot of warmth and warmth. I would like to start with words familiar from childhood: “After all, this does not happen in the world so that children are lost!” And indeed, every mother loves her child very much, takes care of him. For parents, their children are the best. To be a real mother is a vocation given to a woman by nature.
Primary school is the best time to celebrate Mother's Day, because at this stage of life, parents and children are still inextricably linked. And only at this age the child will truly sincerely pronounce all his congratulations to his mother, not paying attention to the people around him. The holiday dedicated
to Mother's Day in elementary school is a holiday not only for women, but also for children. The children, giving joy to their mothers, themselves are charged with the energy of affection and happiness, mixed with trembling excitement.
Preparing for Mother's Day
The preparation of any holiday is very painstaking, but at the same time pleasant. Each class teacher asks how to spend a holiday in elementary school for Mother's Day and where to start preparing. In order not to forget anything, the organizers need to remember the main stages of events in elementary school:
- Stage of preparatory work.
- Stage of discussion and planning.
- Stage of collective preparation.
- Stage of the holiday.
- Stage of summing up the celebration.
Preparing a holiday in elementary school for Mother's Day is not easy. Here, a very big responsibility rests on the shoulders of the teacher-organizer, most often his role is played by the class teacher. In order to properly organize and conduct this event, the teacher must first correctly set the goal of the holiday and formulate tasks.
Why spend Mother's Day in elementary school?
The purpose of the holiday on Mother's Day is most often the development of positive feelings for children in the mother, a good and gentle attitude to the closest person on Earth.
The main objectives of this event in primary school are to:
- explain the reasons for this holiday,
- foster respect for the mother woman.
The time spent on the holiday should not be wasted, therefore we must not forget about its functional load:
- teaching
- educational
- developing
- communicative
- aesthetic
- entertaining
- relaxation.
Room decoration
Of course, Mother's Day celebration in primary school should be primarily safe for children. Therefore, you need to think carefully about the design of the room. Most often, this event is held in the classroom, which means that the question arises of where to put the study tables. If your holiday includes tea drinking, then you need to make tables so that they do not interfere with the celebration, but at the same time take into account free access to them when the time comes for a snack. If there is no tea party, then the tables can be taken out into the corridor, arranging them so that they do not interfere with the free passage.
To create a festive atmosphere in the room, you can hang up pre-purchased balloons, put on the
interactive whiteboard a screensaver with a congratulation on Mother's Day. Make an exhibition of reproductions of paintings of a woman-mother. These are famous canvases: “Mother” by A. A. Deineki, “Mother”, “Petrograd Madonna” by K. S. Petrov-Vodkin, “Sistine Madonna” by Rafael.
Add a photo
If your children are no longer first-graders, then this is not their first holiday in elementary school for Mother's Day. Photos of past years from this event will be an indispensable assistant in the design of the premises.
Well, children can make additional decorations out of paper themselves at technology lessons or attended circles. DIY jewelry will definitely give you an atmosphere of warmth and care.
Scenarios for the celebration of Mother's Day
Of course, the most grateful audience is mothers and grandmothers. After all, they, like no one else, are able to love their children, give them the maximum of their attention, rejoice in their successes and empathize with failures.
Scenarios are now posted on the Internet a great many, but I would like to protect teachers from mistakes. Remember that not a single development of the Mother's Day holiday for elementary school is written specifically for your students. And if you don’t want to write a script yourself, then at least form one out of several. Yes, basically they are all alike - this is reading poetry, performing songs, ditties, using theatrical performances about mom. But if you include imagination and imagination, and each elementary school teacher is endowed with these qualities, you can, using the basic blocks, create a completely modern and creative scenario.
Scripted Mother's Day celebration is one of the best ways to keep children in an organized atmosphere. But also do not forget that this age category of children requires periodic discharge. Therefore, when developing an event, it is necessary to include mobile competitions for children and their mothers. Participation in them usually causes a lot of positive emotions.
Of course, there must be prizes for participating in the competition, and here it is necessary to think over - it will be medals, sweets, diplomas or certificates. One rule for elementary school that must be observed: prizes must be the same, because the mental characteristics of children of this age do not allow them to answer the question: "Why does someone have a better prize than mine?"
Extracurricular activities - an assistant in the organization of the holiday Mother's Day
With the introduction of the new Federal State Educational Standard at the school, where the main requirement is for children to attend classes of various subjects, it has become easier for elementary school teachers to prepare for the festivities. A holiday in elementary school for Mother's Day can be prepared in parts. Ask teachers for extracurricular activities to help in this process, namely, to learn poems, songs with children, create a theatrical performance, craft paper flowers or original postcards.
For a teacher, this is a good time saver to devote additional attention to solving other organizational problems in the design and conduct of a holiday dedicated to Mother's Day.
Children training
In addition to the fact that children read poems and sing at a celebration, additional work needs to be done with them. For example, explain why and why this holiday was created. Children at this age do not yet know that the official background of Mother’s Day is explained as follows: the status of a woman-mother should constantly grow, and therefore this holiday is international.
In the sphere of the current political situation in the country, it will also be useful for them to know that America was the first to celebrate this holiday in 1914, and then European countries began to join it. This holiday is considered to be young in our country, because it was established only in 1998 in accordance with the Decree of the President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin of January 30, 1998 No. 120 “On Mother’s Day”. They celebrate it in Russia on the last Sunday of November. The initiator of the establishment of this holiday was the State Duma Committee on Women, Family and Youth.
Undoubtedly, the role of moral, aesthetic and cultural education of the child lies with the society in which he lives, but the elementary school can lay the foundations of this education. Literary feast Mother's Day, held during the class hour, can help solve this problem, and will also help broaden one's horizons through meeting new authors, their works, and various images of the mother woman. For elementary school, the works of V.V. Vorobyov ("Mother"), verses by A. Blok, N. Nekrasov ...
Mother's Day Scenes
Undoubtedly, for Mother's Day to pass perfectly , the scenario of the holiday in elementary school should contain miniature sketches. They should be comic and relevant to the theme of the event. For this event, you can offer the following scenes: "Because of you," "Home Composition," "Flowers for Mom." The plot unfolds at home. The main characters are mothers and children.
It is very important to correctly show the role of women in raising children. Children should present everything in such a way that it is completely impossible to do without moms. Women, in turn, should feel proud of their babies.
How to invite moms for a holiday
In order to correctly and aesthetically beautifully invite mothers to a holiday, you can make invitation cards. Only first, the teacher will need to consult with the guys on the issue of what kind of invitations they will be, because you can do it yourself, or you can print it on a printer. The only condition is that the child must write the text in the invitation card on his own. You can create your own invitation text, or you can use the following:
Mommy, my mother,
Come to your holiday soon!
The venue is my school,
The class I'm studying in now.
Please do not forget this date ...
Time too - you hear - do not forget!
Waiting for you, my dear mother.
Remember that I love you!
Mother's Day Pre-Holiday Rehearsals
Every child tries to be the best for his mom. According to the script, a holiday in elementary school for Mother's Day requires pre-holiday rehearsals. And in order for these rehearsals to be as productive as possible, the following factors must be taken into account:
- it is necessary to involve each child in the classroom;
- rehearsals are best done in parts, in mini-groups it is easier to pay attention to each child;
- to pay special attention to those moments where the maximum number of children is involved, so that they do not crowd, push, and enter their role in time;
- never raise their voices on children, if something does not work out for them, perhaps the roles are simply incorrectly distributed;
- a mandatory run of the test rehearsal with the use of musical design and excerpts from cartoons is required;
- after the test rehearsal, nothing can be changed in the script.
Celebrating Mother's Day
There is very little time left - the long-awaited hour will soon come when the children, together with their mothers, will come to the celebration called Mother's Day. The script for the holiday in elementary school has already been written and rehearsed, and it seems that all the points are taken into account. But so that the holiday itself leaves only positive emotions in the souls of children and their mothers, the organizing teacher should not forget:
- about creating a pre-holiday mood in children, they are always waiting for something new, incredible, pleasant and kind;
- children should voluntarily participate in the celebration, then the atmosphere will be kind and emotional;
- contests and games held at this event should end before they get bored, so it’s better to prepare them with a margin;
- the holiday itself in elementary school for Mother's Day should not be prolonged.
If the teacher takes note of these moments, the holiday will be held in one breath.
Discussion of the holiday
After the Mother's Day celebration in elementary school has passed, it is imperative to discuss it with the children. Find answers to the following questions:
- What did we do very well?
- What did not work out for us?
- Why?
Only jointly found answers to questions will help to avoid mistakes in the future and spend a holiday in elementary school on Mother's Day for next year without a hitch.
Conclusion
In conclusion, I would like to note that Mother's Day is an interesting holiday. Primary school is a time of experimentation, the discovery of talents and abilities. Everything that is laid in children at an early age will certainly affect their life in the future. If today's elementary school students learn to love and value their loved ones, then in the future they will never be able to pass by a person who needs help. But is this not the main purpose of extracurricular activities?
Nothing to fear, go for it - and you will succeed!
