Civic and environmental education of future preschool education specialists

Abstract

In connection with the rapid and catastrophic deepening of the ecological crisis, an urgent need arose to change the system of relations between humanity and nature. But the basis for this can only be a change in the consciousness of people, and it is advisable to start this process from preschool childhood. Such tasks in the upbringing of children place high demands on educators in their professional training, in particular, acquiring knowledge and developing skills. But the personal qualities of the teacher play an equally important role in this, and this is especially necessary for preparing for the environmental education of preschoolers. The example of the educator in nature conservation, his attitude to animals and plants, determines the behaviour of children in the future. So, the issue of professional training of future educators of preschool educational institutions for the ecological education of children becomes relevant.
