Condiții psihopedagogice pentru formarea reprezentărilor ecologice la preșcolari

Abstract

The article analyzes the psycho-pedagogical conditions necessary for the formation of ecological representations in preschoolers, highlighting the importance of early ecological education. It emphasizes that preschoolers have a strong emotional connection with nature, and ecological education must develop their knowledge, skills, and empathy towards the environment. Forming ecological awareness involves direct interaction with nature, using interactive teaching methods, involving educators and parents as positive role models, and integrating ecological education into the curriculum. The article proposes a practical approach, including creating a nature corner in kindergarten, organizing outdoor activities, and using games and experiments to stimulate children's interest and responsibility towards the environment.
