Currently, there is a need to improve the theory and practice of environmental education of preschool children in kindergarten and to transit to education for sustainable development. The purpose of the research is to substantiate the organization of environmental education of preschool children in kindergarten aimed at understanding the natural and socio-cultural ecosystems. Ecological systems are the universal units of the structure of the surrounding world. The focus of pedagogical activity on the organization of children’s cognitive and research activities in the ecosystems of the nearest natural and socio-cultural environment in the area of the nearest development of preschool age children allows enriching the subjective experience of children with ecological content – the basis of future ecological intuition. Ecological-system approach to the modeling of the educational process allows uniting all forms of organization of life and types of children’s activity in an educational institution into a single succession system. The basis for organizing the cognitive and research activity of preschoolers is the interest, cognitive needs and cognitive activity of children. The process of environmental l education fulfills the role of a systemic mechanism for reflecting and modeling the pictures of the surrounding world in the process of cognitive-research and creative activity in the areas of the nearest development and self-development of children. As a result of testing this organization system in practice of kindergartens activities, teachers note its convenience, effectiveness and positive results in the development of children.

Oral Speech

The development of coherent dialogical speech is most effectively carried out in preschool age, since this period is favorable for the development of the ability to master oral speech. However, this problem is not always given due attention within the framework of the educational process of preschool institutions, the work is carried out mainly in special classes on speech development. Besides, in various types of organized educational activities, there are great opportunities for teaching dialogue to children, one of which may be a workshop. The empirical part of the work was carried out on a sample of 50 children from the pre-primary education group, at the age of 6-7 years attending the preschool educational institution "Kindergarten No. 26" in the city of Kirov (Kirov region, Russian Federation). For diagnosing their level of dialogic speech development, the methodology for identifying the level of development of dialogical communication skills by M.M. Alekseeva, V.I. Yashina; diagnostics of dialogical speech development in preschool children by A.V. Chulkova. The statistical analysis was carried out through mathematical statistics – Pearson’s test. On the basis of the data obtained, it was concluded that productive activity is an effective means of developing the dialogical speech of senior preschool children; speech skills and abilities include the ability to make contact; the ability to make a request for information; replication; possession of speech etiquette; communication emotionality; the ability to compose a dialogue. The effectiveness of workshops as a means of developing the dialogical speech of 6-7-year-old children can be ensured by creating the following conditions: providing children with the opportunity to conduct dialogues at all technological stages of the workshop; implementation of various forms of organizing children’s joint activities; providing children with the opportunity to organize exhibitions, presentations and playing around hand-made crafts. In the process of applying the technology, the possibilities of each stage of developing children’s speech skills should be taken into account. According to the results of the experimental group χ2emp=31.922, which exceeds the critical value, therefore, the discrepancies between the distributions are statistically valid. The prospect of the study is to study the development of children’s communication skills during the workshop.

The Creation

The current ecological state of the environment determines the relevance of environmental education for the younger generation. The problem of ecological upbringing of children of preschool age is considered in the researches of many scholars and teachers. Based on the study of scientific works, we identified three structural components of the formation of natural and ecological competence of preschool children: cognitive, activity and value-motivational. American scientists, studying the problem of children's attitude to nature, offer the concept of «biofilia» and «biophobia». The scientific approaches to the interpretation of the concept of «pedagogical technology» are generalized and formulated as the creation of an optimally organized educational process, developed on the basis of a systematic approach and aimed at the planned result. It is proved that for the formation of natural and ecological competence of preschool children, it is necessary to use traditional and non-traditional pedagogical technologies in order to implement systematic and targeted educational impact on children, using current methods. Studying the peculiarities of the formation of the ecological and natural competence of preschool children, the necessity of creation and proper use of developing ecological environment in pre-school establishments, organization of children's activities in nature, as well as systematic work with children was clarified. The experience of using pedagogical technologies for the ecological upbringing of preschool children, in particular the creation of an ecological footprint, the technology of regional studies and tourism activities, the experimental research activity of preschoolers in nature and the technology of using the author's fairy tale, which allows raising the level of ecological upbringing of preschoolers and forming the natural and ecological competence of a preschool child, is briefly highlighted. The analysis of the experience of using environmental technologies from different countries proves that the main task of preschool education is to promote environmental education and awareness of preschool children.

The main place in this process belongs to the development of cognitive interest of preschoolers. The article has shown that it will have a positive effect on the expansion of the outlook of preschool children and will help to consolidate basic mathematical ideas of creating such an educational environment, when these classes will be combined with the use of means of choreographic influence. The purpose of the article – using elements of rhythm and choreography to integrate mathematical content in the play activities of preschool children. A search and bibliographic tool is used to collect, accumulate, and describe the necessary information sources by us; analysis and synthesis – to organize the procedure of research search; methods of generalization and systematization – for rational processing of the obtained results. Today, in order to form a comprehensive picture of the world and the ability of students to apply their knowledge in typical as well as atypical situations, modern preschool education should be directed not at the acquisition of individual knowledge from different fields by children, but at their integration. Educators need to organize the educational-cognitive process so that it stimulates the cognitive-search, mathematical activity of children, develops the ability to make assumptions, find out contradictions, formulate decisions. The article substantiates the importance of using the kindergarten preschool institutions to entertain the potential of mathematical and choreographic play. Examples of such games are provided. Having been preparing children for study at the New Ukrainian School, the caregivers should pay particular attention to integrating logic and mathematical development with other artistic pursuits. In particular, the combination with various forms of choreographic activity is quite successful.

The article discusses the conceptual directions of the development of education: all-age and continuous. Two interrelated basic tendencies of all-age education have been identified. The authors considered the specificity of educational concepts in different countries of the world. Depending on the level of embeddedness of research competence in the activity, a morphological five-aspect classification is proposed. The following aspects of the division were identified as independent: mental orientation of the individual to the implementation of research activities; own (individual) motivational apparatus that stimulates a person to carry out research activities; the level of requirements and the presence of high-quality psychological support of the close external environment for the formation of acquired properties (signs) in a person for the implementation of expedient research activities; the level of requirements and the presence of high-quality psychological support of the distant external environment for the formation of acquired properties (signs) in a person for the implementation of expedient research activities; the presence of a methodological and informational apparatus in an educational institution for identifying congenital and acquired personality inclinations to research activities. The system of research competence for a specific educational institution, including various aspects of its functioning, is presented by the authors in a code dimension (one of the basic requirements of the digital economy). A sequence of development of a code portrait is proposed, which allows the entire set of educational institutions to be divided according to the level of the state of the system of research competence, which gives the management apparatus of the university a powerful mechanism for the formation of acquired properties (attributes) in a person to carry out expedient research activities (creating the necessary volume and focus of research competence of students and trainees). Based on the proposed methodology, a comparison was made between two educational systems: domestic (Russian) and foreign (American).

The paper discusses the issues of teaching nationality languages of Russia to preschool children, taking the Udmurt language and culture as an example. The relevance of the study is dermined by the scientific data according to which ethnic stereotypes in behaviour are formed most intensively in preschool age. Getting acquainted with new cultures and languages is particularly important for preschool education in multinational regions as it prevents the development of ethnocentric personalities. The paper aimed at a detailed analysis of the didactic and substantive content of the educational programme “Zarni bugor” (“Golden ball”) (hereinafter referred as the Programme) with the elements of teaching the Udmurt language to children from 4 to 7; the Programme is to be realised within three years in the Russian group of kindergarten № 5 in the town of Agryz, Republic of Tatarstan. The novelty of the Programme lies in introducing the Udmurt language (along with Tatar and Russian) into the educational process of the kindergarten. The research methods are theoretical (the study of academic literature on the problems of intercultural education in a multi-ethnic region) and empirical (observation and behavioral analysis of preschoolers). The system of exercises included into the Programme, its content, the forms and methods of teaching preschoolers present a consistant didactic material for teaching the Udmurt language and culture in this age group. The programme is expected to provide a high level of intercultural competence corresponding to the age of children, it is supposed to arouse their interest in the Udmurt language and culture, make them open for perception of other cultures.

The purpose of the article is to reveal the importance of preparation of future preschool teachers for implementation of an integrated approach into children's education and to identify key concepts of integration in which the future pre-school teacher should be competent. Integration as a principle of development of pedagogical theory and practice of preschool education is a leading idea that reflects the harmonious integration among educational lines and as a result creation of a single inseparable educational process and guarantees its implementation the achievement of higher results in the development and upbringing of children of preschool age. Integration as a process involves the direct establishment of harmonious links among the defined systems of integration and the creation of a new holistic education system for preschool children in accordance with the defined result. As a process, integration involves the integration of objects (educational lines, different types of children's activities, forms and methods) and designing a way to obtain the expected result. As a result of the educational activities of the preschool institution, integration does not involve the amount of knowledge, skills and abilities, but the acquired integrative qualities of the child, such as curiosity, activity, independence, responsibility, upbringing, etc. Integration as a result is considered by researchers through the form of its organization in the educational process, namely the possible forms of preschoolers’ integrated learning (projects, holidays, travelling, excursions, business and role-playing games), which immerse the preschooler into learning. In the process of integrated studying with the help of different interdisciplinary links, children’ comprehensive and objective vision of the problems of reality and diverse approaches to their solution are formed. A competent preschool teacher should be ready to implement an integrated approach in the process of their practical activities. This will allow to implement the tasks defined by the normative documents in the field of preschool education for teaching children and the formation of their life competencies.
