Abstract

The relevance of research. The lesson is not only a form of organizing the education of preschoolers, but also an indicator of the professionalism of the teacher. At an open or competitive lesson, teachers strive to demonstrate the most modern methods and tools, which makes such events a reflection of the leading trends in preschool education of the present time.

The aim of the study: to identify the specifics of the organization lessons based on competition materials for kindergarten teachers in the Ivanovo region.

Methodology: video analysis of lessons.

Description of the research progress. Remote contests were organized to collect research materials. 188 teachers of preschool organizations from 21 municipal districts of the Ivanovo region took part in them. As a competitive entry, participants sent a video recording of a lesson with preschoolers. As part of the study, a video analysis of lessons was conducted to study their structure and identify the most common and effective pedagogical techniques and tools.

The main results. 188 works of participants of the regional contests “Reading Ushinsky” and “Kindergarten – Modern Format”, organized in 2023, were analyzed. There is a general tendency to overload educational activities with gaming techniques and surprise moments. A common desire to replace children’s initiative and independence with consistent fulfillment of teacher’s tasks has been revealed. Based on the analysis of the contestants’ materials, a diagram of a typical open lesson has been developed, beginning with a sound technique for attracting children’s attention, building in a circle, authoritarian goal setting through a riddle or a surprise moment.

Conclusions. Among the features of competitive (open) lessons, we note the desire of teachers to apply spectacular techniques, methods, means (dressing up, experiments, technical devices), as well as the predominance of adult activity, the suppressive activity of a child. In an effort to show their artistic abilities, teachers take all the initiative, completing most tasks, dominating all types of activities and formulating conclusions. Among the features that characterize open lessons, we highlight the clear construction of educational activities as a system of sequential tasks, united by a conventional storyline (journey, fairy tale), which does not provide for children’s initiative and variability.

The study showed the predominance of entertainment over the educational and developmental goals of organizing open lessons.
