THE PROJECT-BASED NATURAL SCIENCES EDUCATION IN A PRESCHOOL CHILDREN’S GROUP

The aim of today's natural science education is literacy development from the early years. The project-based natural science education happens in a deliberately prepared natural environment: children may work in groups, institutions, or outside institutions. The activities aim at preschool children's personality growth as well as gaining needed competencies and progress. The realization of the project-based natural sciences' method distinguishes preschool children's individual and teamwork skills. It is also a very useful tool for developing pupils' consciousness, activeness, creativity, and responsibility. Moreover, the preservation of animate and inanimate nature along with the rational use of resources is identified. The project-based natural science education is closely related to the integration of innovative information technologies. Preschool children are encouraged to take part in various interactive games and activities. In this way the children's thinking skills are developed. Also, the integration of information technologies motivates children to engage in concrete patronizing, nature-friendly, and environment-friendly activities.
