ROLE OF EXCURSIONS IN ECOLOGICAL EDUCATION OF ELEMENTARY STUDENTS

Abstract

The article examines the theoretical issues of environmental education in primary school and the methodology for studying the environment using one of the forms of the educational process – a natural history excursion. It is recommended that teachers of general education organizations educate primary schoolchildren ecologically using the example of local, natural landscapes. To get acquainted with the diverse natural world of the Republic of Bashkortostan, learn how to navigate in it, conduct independent observations and apply available measures for environmental protection – all this will ensure the correct conduct of ecological excursions. During excursions, it is necessary to introduce students to the various ecosystems located within the settlement: parks, forests, meadows, rivers, lakes, etc.
