Životinje Antarktike / Antarctic animals

hosted by Leann @ Montessori Tidbits

Antarktika je najjužniji i najhladniji kontinent s najmanje života, ali ipak jako privlači djecu. S lakoćom su zapamtila sve o Antarktici. U ovom postu pokazat ću što smo radili na temu životinje Antarktike.

~

Antarctica is the southernmost and coldest continent with the least life, but still very attractive for children. They learned all about Antarctica with ease. In this post I'll show what we've done on the Antarctic animals.

Plakat o Antarktici: / Poster about Antarctica:

U sklopu vježbe razvrstavanja životinja po kontinentima, ponuđene su kartice s pticama za svaki kontinent i plastične životinje:

Math game: reading the temperature on the thermometer. You can read more about this activity HERE.

Jedna djevojčica nam je posudila slikovnicu Say Hello to the Snowy Animals!

~

One girl borrowed us a picture book Say Hello to the Snowy Animals!

Djeca su također sa zanimanjem proučila slikovnicu Polarne životinje koja ih je oduševila s različitim prozorčićima iza kojih su se skrivala iznenađenja - zanimljivosti o polarnim životinjama.

~

Children also found interesting picture book about polar animals. They were delighted with little windows behind which are hidden surprises - interesting facts about polar animals.

Ovdje možete pročitati zanimljive činjenice o životinjama Antarktike.

Australija / Australia

U prethodnim postovima sam spomenula da su djeca istraživala različite kontinente. Ovaj put na redu je Australija. Kao i za ostale kontinente, djeca su crtala znamenitosti i ostale posebnosti vezane za kontinent Australiju:

~In previous posts I mentioned that children have explored the different continents. This time, about Australia. As for other continents, the children drew monuments and other special features related to the continent of Australia: 

Zastava Australije, Opera u Sydneyu, Bumerang, Uluru

Flag of Australia, Sydney Opera House, Boomerang, Uluru 

Most u Sydneyu, životinje: klokan, čudnovati kljunaš, koala

Sydney bridge, animals: kangaroo, platypus, koala 

Mama jedne djevojčice iz grupe nam je posudila prekrasnu i zanimljivu knjigu o Australiji:
Mom of a girl from our class has borrowed us a beautiful and interesting book about Australia: 

Kao i za ostale kontinente, i za Australiju sam izradila kartice za upoznavanje tipične hrane...

~As for other continents, I made cards for the introduction of typical food in Australia ... 

 ...australskih građevina, i...
...famous buildings in Australia, and...

...životinja koje su karakteristične za Australiju.
...animals that are typical for Australia.

Kartice sa životinjama su djeca kombinirala s plastičnim životinjama koje sam predstavila u postu o razvrstavanju životinja po kontinentima.

~3 part cards with animals the children combined with the plastic animals that I presented in a post about sorting animals by continent.

Jeste li znali? / Did you know?

Jeste li znali da je Jadransko more svrstano u ekološka područja u kojima je zabranjeno odlaganje otpadaka?

Ovu fotografiju sam snimila na trajektu kad sam putovala na more. Iznenadila sam se ovim podacima (znala sam da se otpad dugo razgrađuje, ali neke brojke su me zaista šokirale)...

~

Did you know that the Adriatic Sea is classified in environmental areas in which is prohibited disposal of waste? 

This photo I shot on the ferry when I traveled on my vacation. I was surprised by this information (I knew that the waste breaks down long, but some numbers are really shocked me)... 

Razgradnja otpada u moru traje:

Decomposition of waste in the sea is:

• Papir / novine: 2-4 tjedna  /  Paper / newspapers: 2-4 weeks 
• Vunene i pamučne tkanine: 1-12 mjeseci  /  Wool and cotton fabrics: 1-12 months
• Obojeno drvo: 13 godina (!!!)  /  Painted wood: 13 years (!!!) 
• Pokositrena limenka: 100 godina  /  Tinned cans: 100 years
• Aluminijska limenka: 200-500 godina (!!!)  /  Aluminum Can: 200-500 years (!!!)
• Plastika (ambalaža, boce, vrećice): 450 godina  /  Plastics (packaging, bottles, bags): 450 years
• Staklo: neodređeno vrijeme  /  Glass: indefinitely

Zaista je važno čuvati prirodu za djecu i sve buduće naraštaje.
It is really important to protect the nature for our children and future generations.

Europa I / Europe I

O aktivnostima vezanim uz temu Europa sam pisala davno, u jednom starom postu. U ovom postu ću opisati koje smo još aktivnosti proveli u vrtiću, učeći o našem kontinentu - Europi.
~
I wrote about the activities related to the topic of Europe, in an old post, long ago. In this post, I will describe the activities that we have done in the kindergarten, learning about our continent - Europe. 


Zastave / Flags:
Pridruživanje zastave pripadajućoj europskoj državi iz puzzla Europe (za ovu vježbu sam pripremila i nazive Europskih država koje ne možete vidjeti na fotografijama, ali ih besplatno možete skinuti u mojim Scribd dokumentima):
~
Joining the flag to the European country from the puzzle map of Europe (for this exercise, I prepared the labels with names of European countries that you can not see the photos, but you can download them for free at my Scribd documents - only in Croatian language)

Djeci sam ponudila i ploče s "pikicama" ili "čavlićima" koje sam preuzela iz redovnog programa. Ovu igračku za razvoj fine motorike sam pretvorila u Montessori pribor. Svaku boju sam stavila u posebnu posudu i zajedno s pločom za slaganje stavila na pladanj. Taj pribor nam služi isključivo za slaganje zastava. Djeca ga  o b o ž a v a j u :-)
~
I offered to children mosaic peg board which I took from the regular kindergarten classroom. This toy is great for developing fine motor skills and I've turned it into a Montessori material. I placed pegs (every color in a separate box) and board on a tray. We use this material solely for creating the flag. Kids  l o v e  this activity :-) They even created flags that doesn't exist in the real world and came up with the names of the countries. 

Puzzle: Europske države / Puzzle map of Europe

Budući da je mlađoj djeci teško složiti puzzle s europskim državama, odlučila sam napraviti kontrolnu kartu: fotografirala sam puzzle i isprintala. Plastificirala sam zbog izdržljivosti.

~

Since younger children find it difficult to work with puzzle map of European countries (soooo many countries), I decided to make a control chart: I photographed the puzzle and printed it. I laminated it for endurance. 

Djeca vole opcrtavati države na papiru.
~
Children also love drawing an outline of European countries on paper.

Suradnja s roditeljima / Cooperation with parents:

Roditelji su nam donosili mnoge predmete, suvenire i časopise pa su djeca mogla zorno vidjeti karakteristične predmete za razne Europske države.

~

Parents have brought us many things, souvenirs and magazines, so the children could clearly see the specific items from various European countries. 

Kastanjete su nam posudili roditelji koji su bili u Španjolskoj.

~

Parents who were in Spain lent us castanets.

Tulipane smo dobili kad smo učili o Nizozemskoj.

~

When we learned about the Netherlands, the parents have donated tulips. 

Kartice / 3 Part Cards:

Izradila sam kartice sa poznatim građevinama iz Europe,...

~

I made cards with famous buildings in Europe,...

..., kartice s hranom karakterističnom za pojedine europske države...

~

..., cards with food typical of some European countries... 

...i kartice sa životinjama Europe:

~

...and cards with European animals:

Glazba / Music:

Do sad smo obilježili mnoge obljetnice raznih europskih glazbenika. Čitajući blog Counting Coconuts, dobila sam ideju da sliku svakog glazbenika stavim u okvir. Okvire s portretom glazbenika i s njegovim imenom i potpisom stavljam uz kazetofon. Djeca tako uočavaju izgled i lakše povezuju glazbenika s djelom koje slušamo. Kao primjer fotografirala sam Mozarta i Vivaldija:

~

Until now, we celebrated many anniversaries of various European musicians. While I was reading Counting Coconuts (one of my favorite blogs), I got the idea to put a picture of each musician in the frame. Frame with a portrait of musician and his name and signature we put next to the CD player. Children also perceive the look and it is easier to connect the musician with the music that we listen. As an example, I photographed Mozart and Vivaldi:

Knjige / Books:
Kada smo učili o Hrvatskoj, čitali smo poetske tekstove Zvonimira Baloga iz zbirke Veseli zemljopis:
~
When we learned about Croatia, we read poetic texts from the collection of Zvonimir Balog, Veseli zemljopis (Happy geography):

Upoznali smo europske gradove:
~
We learned about European cities:

Fauna Europe je stara knjiga ali ima vrlo dobro razrađenu podjelu životinja:
~
Fauna of Europe is an old book but has very well described the animal kingdom:

Koristili smo i turističke vodiče / Tourist guides:

Ruske narodne priče sam dobila za rođendanski poklon dok sam bila klinka, a za vrijeme učenja o Rusiji sam ju donijela u vrtić:
~
Russian folk tales I've got for a birthday gift when I was a kid, and while learning about Russia, I brought this book in kindergarten:

Za vrijeme posjeta knjižnici djeca su odabrala knjigu s bajkama braće Grimm.
~
During our visit to the library the children chose a book with the fairy tales of brothers Grimm.

Pročitali smo bajku o Matovilki, a djeca su nacrtala crteže od kojih smo napravili slikovnicu. Kad su djeca prepričavala priču, bilježila sam tekst koji sam pisala ispod odgovarajućih crteža.
~
When we read a fairy tale about Rapunzel, children were drawing, so we made a picture book. When the children retold the story, I noted down the text that I wrote under their drawings.
