What is an extended day group? Games in the extended day group of elementary school

An integral part of the work of any educational institution is the GPA. What it is? The abbreviation GPA stands for This is a real lifesaver for parents who work throughout the day and cannot devote time to their child. After the lessons, together with the teacher, the children will not only be able to complete the task, but also have fun with their peers.

Tasks of the extended day group

The comprehensive development of the personality of each child is the main task of the GPA. means that kids who stay at school after school aren't just "killing time" while waiting for their parents. A program for teaching new subjects is being developed for students, students can attend interesting circles. For students 6-7 years old, daytime sleep can be organized. After all, a tired child loses interest in learning.

Teachers who have been working with GPA for more than a year note that children's attention and memory increase, they become more assiduous in the main classes. This is due to the correct organization of the time of children. At home, on the contrary, schoolchildren feel more relaxed, there is no discipline inherent in an educational institution.

GPA - help for lagging children

Not all students develop in the same way. It is enough for one child to read the material once to begin to understand it perfectly, while the other will have to explain the topic several more times. GPA planning necessarily includes work with lagging behind guys. While the rest of the students are busy drawing or modeling, for example, the teacher can work with the child individually.

Other tasks of the GPA include:

the formation of good habits in a child (putting them in a closet, putting away school items after training);
instilling personal hygiene skills;
strengthening the physical health of children;
development of interest in learning;
development of communicative relations of children in a particular team.

Schoolchildren who attend the GPA are more socially adapted. They easily find a common language with new guys, they know how to behave in this or that unforeseen situation.

Forms of extracurricular work with children

There are several options for working with students after the main lessons. Self-preparation in the GPA is important. What it is? This is an organizational form of activity of students who stay for an extended day in an educational institution, providing for the completion of homework under the guidance of a teacher. In the course of training, young schoolchildren develop the skills of independent work, they learn to perform the task with high quality the first time.

Club hour is another form of spending time in an extended day group. The GPA teacher plans the lesson in advance. It can be a drawing, modeling or music lesson. Often children visit museums, go on excursions. Parents may also be involved.

Benefits of attending extended day groups

In the extended day group, children of primary school age remain under supervision and at the same time develop comprehensively. This is a huge advantage, especially for busy parents. The GPA work program is developed taking into account the age characteristics of the children. Schoolchildren in a few hours spent in an educational institution manage to do their homework, communicate with their peers, learn new interesting information from the educator, and physically relax.

The GPA plan includes not only educational moments. Schoolchildren also receive quality education (on a preferential basis or at the expense of their parents). At home, mothers and fathers cannot always keep track of what the child is doing and eating after school.

Parents always want the kid not only to be well versed in the school curriculum, but also to go in for sports, take part in concerts and other extracurricular activities. If a student attends a GPA class, he can choose what to do additionally. In an educational institution, sports sections, circles of fine arts, singing, dancing, etc. can be offered.

Regime moments

The guys who attend the extended day group should get used to a certain regimen. The skills that will be developed in schools will continue into the future. Therefore, the mode is another advantage of the GPA. What it is? What does the term "mode" mean? This means that the guys at the same time have lunch, sleep (if we are talking about schoolchildren of 6-7 years old), learn lessons, attend circles.

The mode for all extended day groups is approximately the same. Immediately after the end of school hours, the guys who stay for an after-school lunch, then get ready for a walk in the fresh air, go outside. Then comes self-training. The children do their homework, some of the students are taught individually by the teachers. At the end, leisure activities follow (sports sections, circles, excursions).

Safety requirements

Safety in working with children is above all. A GPA educator who has passed a medical examination may be allowed to work with them. Safety training is also required. These conditions must also be observed by kitchen workers, assistant educators, as well as leaders of circles.

Students must be supervised at all times. Lessons for the GPA can be held in a specially designated room. Students are not allowed to come to class on their own. From one audience to another, younger students must move accompanied by a teacher. If the child attends the circle, the leader must accompany him to the office where the classes will be held.

During self-training, children should also be under the supervision of a teacher. If the teacher needs to leave the office, he looks after the students. The position of the children at their desks must be monitored in order to avoid the development of scoliosis, myopia and other pathologies.

Thematic planning of the GPA

A clear plan for conducting classes by the teacher should be developed at the beginning of the school year. The entire curriculum can be divided into thematic periods (by months). An extended day group lesson plan may be as follows:

Hello school. In September, all classes are devoted to the first days of training. At circles and extracurricular activities, the guys discuss how the summer went. Educators are interested in what interesting things schoolchildren would like to learn in the new academic year.
"Gold autumn". In October, after-school groups begin preparations for the autumn ball. The children make handicrafts from dry leaves, and learn autumn-themed songs at music lessons.
"New knowledge". In November, visits to museums and factories may be planned. Excursions arouse interest among schoolchildren, stimulate interest in learning.
"New Years is soon". In December, preparations for the celebration of the new year begin. All lessons for the GPA are developed taking into account the upcoming holiday. Children learn poems, songs, prepare New Year's decorations.
"Zimushka-Winter". In January, a winter walk must be planned. The children observe the changes in nature in the cold season. Schoolchildren will also enjoy skiing.
"Farewell to Winter" In February, in music classes, children learn songs dedicated to Shrovetide, and in drawing classes, they create themed postcards.
"Mom's Holiday" In March, all extracurricular activities are aimed at organizing the upcoming International Women's Day.
"Spring-Red". In April, the GPA teacher, together with the children, visits the botanical garden or steam room. Students study plants that wake up in spring. In the classroom, thematic crafts are created.
"Summer is coming". May is the end of the school year. Schoolchildren sum up, make plans for the upcoming holidays. Most of the extracurricular time is spent outdoors.

The planning shown is indicative. Each teacher can develop his own program, taking into account the needs of a particular school team.

Who can attend the GPA?

All elementary school students have the right to stay for an extended day after the main school hours. But parents must first write a corresponding application. Usually the procedure is carried out at the beginning of the school year. There is no charge for the stay of a child in an extended day group. This is provided for by the Law on Education of the Russian Federation. The only thing parents have to pay for is food.

Summarize

After-school groups are a unique opportunity for parents to properly organize the day of younger students in conditions of constant employment. Under the supervision of qualified teachers, the children develop fully, delve into general education subjects, attend interesting excursions and communicate with peers.

If there is such an opportunity, it is not worth refusing to visit the GPA for a child. The skills of independence laid down at the initial stage of training will help organize the day of an adult student in the future.

The main goal of the GPA – creation of conditions for the full development of the personality of younger students: the development of emotions, creativity, speech skills, strong-willed qualities, aesthetic attitude to the world around, cognitive abilities, abilities for self-expression. As well as creating a favorable environment for preparing homework, educating children in independence, self-discipline, self-respect, and the child’s confidence in success.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!

When choosing a school where a future first-grader is planned to study, busy parents may inquire about the existence and activities of a special service - an extended day group. Many children like to visit the afterschool, where they communicate with friends and spend time usefully. The guys continue to go to it throughout the entire period of elementary school, and not only because they are left without adult control in the afternoon.

Organizational aspects

1. After-school group(GPA) is completed by the beginning of the academic year from among the students of the educational institution. Parents write an application with a request to enroll their son (daughter) in an aftercare program. The document must indicate how the child will get home every day after the group closes (leave the school on their own or be picked up by adults).
2. The number of students in the GPA is determined based on the territorial capabilities of the school and its occupancy. Usually it is 25 people. The children are mostly elementary school students.
3. An educator with a professional pedagogical education is engaged with children. He checks and helps with homework. The teacher maintains a close relationship with the class teacher of the student, his subject teachers. In order to, if necessary, report on unforeseen circumstances that have occurred with the child. Clarify the nuances of doing homework, get advice. The GPA educator is responsible for the child's compliance with safety regulations on the playground, in the dining room. Maintains the necessary documentation, control over attendance. The work takes into account the age characteristics of schoolchildren.
4. The activities of the GPA are provided for by law and are spelled out in the regulations of the educational institution. At a meeting of the Governing Council and the school-wide parent committee of the school, current topical issues are resolved (about the amount of additional payment for hot meals for children, exempting some categories of citizens from payment, organizing sleep for first-graders in the afternoon).

GPA daily routine

The school administration, in accordance with the recommendations of the sanitary and hygienic services, establishes a daily routine for children attending an extended day group. The main regime moments are:
- Meeting. The teacher collects the children from the GPA after the end of all lessons.
- Lunch according to the established norms.
- Walk for at least 2 hours.
- Self-training after 15 hours. For 1st grade students - 1 astronomical hour; 2-3 classes - 1.5 hours; Grades 4-5 - 2 hours in total. The advantage of after-school classes is the child's ability to spontaneously take breaks under the supervision of a teacher.
- Afternoon.
– Hobby classes (sculpting, application, drawing, board games), attending additional education circles, sports sections.

Each family decides on its own whether the child attends the GPA: whether the working conditions of the group suit her, whether the student will be able to prepare lessons in a team, and not at home. It will not be superfluous to listen to the reviews of other parents whose children attended the aftercare. By identifying the child and observing him, you can draw the right conclusions.

Good afternoon, dear readers! September 1st was not a festive and carefree day for everyone. Many parents were literally “stunned” by the news that from this year there is a paid after-school at school! Is it possible to do without it? What will you be offered for this money? What are the pros and cons of an extended day group? Let's figure it out.

If your child is already going to school, or entering the first grade is just around the corner, then the question arises before you - how best to organize the afternoon of a student? And what can the school offer you? Paid or free extension in 2016-2017 academic year?

For many working parents, if there are no grandparents who can pick up the child immediately after school, after school is a kind of “salvation”.

An extension at school is a type of extracurricular activity that exists at a school for children of primary and secondary school age. After the lessons, the child goes to the classroom, where he is met by the teacher of the group, who organizes the child's pastime until the parents arrive.

Usually, the GPA mode includes: lunch, a walk in the fresh air (in good weather), doing homework, visiting circles and sections.

Here is an example extension mode:

Until what time the after-school service works, the director of each school determines individually. In most schools, the GPA operates until 18.00.

Of course, the conditions for staying in a group and the extension mode may differ depending on the age of the students, depending on the school - each school has its own program. For example, elementary school students have lunch a little earlier according to the schedule than high school students. For first-graders, according to the federal law on education, there are no homework assignments, which means that more time is devoted to team games, walks and circles during the after-school program.

After school, in addition to the GPA, various circles and sections begin to work. These may be additional English classes for high school students, folklore and drawing for elementary school students.

How to choose a circle or section for your child, you can read in .

Paid after-school at school: how much does it cost?

In the 2016-2017 academic year, after-school programs in most schools became paid, as well as circles. Each school sets its own prices. On the distance learning portal prodlenka.org The Department of Education published the average GPA fee. In Moscow, this average cost is 2500 rubles per month.

At the same time, the student can stay at school for free after school for 2 hours. And must provide 10 hours of free weekly extracurricular activities.

Pros and cons of an extension

Benefits of an extension

child under supervision

Most parents work until 18.00. If there are no close relatives nearby who can pick up the child from school and sit with him until mom or dad arrives, then an extended day group is a great way out of the situation. The afterschool caregiver is fully responsible for your child.

hot lunch

You don't have to worry about your child going hungry. On the extension, they will definitely feed him. Moreover, a four-course dinner: the first (hot soup); the second (garnish with meat or fish), vegetable salad and compote.

Friends

Communication with classmates and their peers outside of school hours helps the child make friends, and therefore become more confident. Here, the guys can calmly talk, play joint games, unite in circles of interest. For first-graders, an after-school program, by rallying the class, facilitates the period of adaptation to school. (For more information about adaptation to school, read our article).

Mugs

Working parents do not always have time to visit different sections with their children, traveling with the baby throughout the city, even if they are located in the same area. It takes a lot of time on the road. At the school, the child will be offered various extracurricular activities within the walls of the school itself, which, you see, is very convenient.

Help with lessons

Schoolchildren perform and check homework under the supervision of teachers. Accordingly, they can help when difficulties arise. And parents will not have to sit together at the lessons after the working day, until the night. Or you can spend this time together with your child doing something that brings everyone pleasure, such as games, reading, walking, etc.

Walk

For everyone, the benefits of walking in the fresh air are obvious. But today we are all in a hurry somewhere, and even if we pick up the child from school early, we run home as soon as possible. There are many important things waiting for us there. And the majority of children, who today are meant for themselves, prefer various gadgets (phone, computer, tablet) to a walk.
And on an after-school with children in good weather, they definitely walk every day. A walk can be from an hour to two, which cannot but please parents.

Possible cons of extension

Lack of opportunities for daytime sleep and rest

This item is very important, especially for first graders, when there is a period of getting used to the new regimen and workloads. Many children no longer go to bed at this age, but primary school children should have the opportunity to lie down to rest. The school, unfortunately, cannot provide this.

No personal space

The child is in a social group, constantly forced to find and establish contact with peers and with adult teachers. The school has rules and limits that students cannot go beyond and must adhere to. For example, if your child does not want to go for a walk, but wants to devote this time to reading, then he will not have such an opportunity during the after-school program. If the class goes for a walk, then no other teacher remains in the room, and all the children, without exception, go outside.

Sitting at the desk for a long time

If the weather is bad, then the children spend all the time in the classroom, which is not good for physical health. Especially, as you can guess, few people sit at their desks correctly. The lack of physical activity and the ability to change position negatively affects students: they get more tired and fatigued.

Food quality

Of course, homemade food always tastes better. What could be better for a child than food prepared with love by a mother? But since 2016, parents can independently, participating in the school council, check the quality of the school canteen. This will increase your peace of mind for the safe feeding of your child at school.

Lack of well-organized leisure

The school has a narrow circle of circles. And some of them are full of students. If you want your child to be professionally involved in sports or creative areas, then, of course, it is unlikely that the school will be able to provide you with this - both due to the lack of conditions and the lack of highly qualified narrow specialized specialists (for example, a swimming coach or a vocal teacher).

Bad caregiver

Unfortunately, as in any profession, among teachers there are people with talent from God, but there are, to put it mildly, unskilled specialists. A child can walk outside and be dressed inappropriately for the weather, a teacher, instead of organizing joint activities with children, can sit on his phone, or just talk rudely with schoolchildren. If your child does not have contact with the teacher of the extended day group, then all this time will not only interfere with his studies, but will also be psychological stress. Therefore, be sure to get to know the teacher personally. Talk to other parents, read reviews of GPA at your school. And in case of negligence on the part of educators, immediately go with complaints to the administration.

Lack of parental attention

Children, seeing that others are taken away from school earlier, but they are not, miss their parents even more.

Alone at home

There is another option, in which the parents work, and the child does not stay on the extension, but independently gets home and waits for the parents.

In countries abroad, there are federal laws prohibiting leaving a child at home alone until they reach the age of 10-12, and in some countries up to 14 years. There is no such thing in Russia. Each parent decides this for himself, depending on the family situation, the remoteness of the school from home, the independence of the child.

How do you know if your baby is ready to be home alone?

He himself is not afraid to stay at home alone. Can play on its own for a long time.
He has self-care skills. Can warm up food, pour a drink, wash, etc.
Owns information. Knows his first name, last name, patronymic and full name of his parents, his address. He knows how to use the phone. Knows your number, emergency numbers.
Knows the basics of security and understands what is possible and what is not. You can’t touch sockets, turn on the iron yourself, talk to strangers, etc.
He is responsible. You know that if you ask him for something, it will be done.

In any case, you need to gradually increase the time when your baby is left at home alone. Starting from 15-30 minutes until you just go to the store. Thus, such an environment will be familiar and familiar to him and will not cause him anxiety.

In case he is afraid of something, there will be questions - he should always be able to contact you. And you will be calm that you will return home to a whole apartment and a healthy child.

Some children at the age of 10 are ready to get home on their own, and parents trust their independence and responsibility. And some children, even at the age of 14, cannot heat their own food and are afraid of loneliness. Much depends on the parents themselves. Do you give freedom to your child within the limits of what is allowed, of course? Or do you worry about his every step and overprotect him?

If your child returns home after school on his own, then homework falls entirely on his shoulders. So, on your shoulders, dear parents. Here I mean, of course, not that you should do lessons with him together, but that if difficulties and questions arise, you should be ready to devote time to this. It is better to plan a daily routine with your child and try to stick to it.

What conclusion can we draw? Free after-school is a thing of the past, ahead is the development of paid services based on schools. In any case, this is a way out for parents who cannot pick up their child immediately after school.

The main thing is to maintain a trusting relationship with the child, so that if he has any difficulties and personal experiences during the extension, at the section, at home, you will immediately know about it and be able to respond to what is happening in time.

The school is the main assistant in the formation of the personality of the child. A small person enters a new world, he is surrounded by teachers, classmates, children from other classes, new relationships are formed. In modern conditions, the task of the GPA educator is extremely important: to strive to ensure that our children grow up not only as conscious and healthy members of society, but also necessarily initiative, thinking, capable of a creative approach to business.

GPA educator,

GBOU Gymnasium No. 642 "Earth and the Universe"

Day care center

as a condition for the formation of the child's personality

Today in society there is a problem of high-quality leisure of children of primary school age. On the one hand, there are a large number of development centers and houses of children's creativity, sports sections, and on the other hand, the employment of parents, the violation of intra-family relations, the preference of children in their free time for computer games and TV shows.

After school, some of the children go home from school, and some remain in the extended day group. And it may seem that it is at home that the child is more comfortable, it is there that he feels free, becomes independent, learns to organize his free time. But it's not. Psychological and medical studies prove that a child of primary school age should not be left to himself, because due to the lack of development of volitional qualities, the impossibility of independent planning, distractibility, leisure is aimless, useless, and often harms the mental and physical health of the child. Younger students still do not know how to optimally use their free time for their physical and personal development. The character of a younger student has such features as impulsiveness, a tendency to act immediately, without thinking, without weighing all the circumstances (the reason is the age-related weakness of volitional regulation of behavior); general insufficiency of will - the student still does not know how to pursue the intended goal for a long time, stubbornly overcome difficulties. The emotional state of the child is increasingly beginning to be influenced by how his relationships with peers develop, and not just academic success and relationships with teachers. Even the most loving parents cannot fully realize the age-related claims of a younger student on their own, since they can fully open up only in a group of peers, and they actively use the system of additional education in kindergarten, sports sections, etc., which, of course, is good . But at present, most parents choose to ensure the material well-being of the family as one of their main tasks and are busy with business for a significant part of the time, so their choice of GPA for their children is quite obvious. Parents are convinced that the child's stay in the school GPA helps the process of personality formation, guarantees his safety and health (both physical and moral).

The GPA is designed to ensure the unity of the classroom and extracurricular activities of students, to promote their health, to ensure a high level of efficiency, good physical, moral and aesthetic well-being of children. The task of the GPA educator is not only to keep the child busy with the game, to fill his free time, but also to organize activities that would be interesting and useful for the younger student, contribute to his intellectual and physical development, enrich him emotionally. In this case, the individual characteristics of the child, his interests must be taken into account. Classes in the GPA also contribute to the formation of a system of relations with oneself, other people, and the world around. A friendly atmosphere, attentive attitude, helping each other, mutual assistance are necessaryconditions for the personal development of the student, educational, leisure, recreational activitiesthat we createin the extended day groupfor lower grades.

Strict daily routine , observed in the GPA, is simply necessary for a child of primary school age. The daily routine helps children learn how to effectively allocate their time, helps to reduce impulsivity, the formation of strong-willed qualities.

Mandatory daily walks outdoor activities affect the physical and emotional development of the child. The same children who go home after school, as a rule, do not go out for a walk.

Organized full hot meals. Fees for meals are low, and there are significant discounts for children from large and low-income families.

Always there at school to provide the necessarymedical carea doctor and a nurse are present.

Children attending GPA learn skills quicklyself-service; duty in the classroom, in the dining room, in circles contribute to the development of these skills.

At the beginning of the school year, they must be developed together with children Communication rules : free, calm, constructive. These rules help in the development of volitional and moral qualities of students, in the prevention of inadequate emotional reactions, in the formation of effective interaction with peers and adults.

close communication between the GPA educator and the teacherallow a deeper understanding of the student, to find exactly the approach to him that will help the child to better open up, realize his potential.

Communication with parentschildren attending the GPA, as a rule, are closer and more trusting, since the educator spends most of the time with the child, communicates, observes him in different situations and can give parents specific recommendations on raising the child, organizing his leisure time, helping to establish child-parent relations.

The school teachers themselves and the GPA educator fill out free time children with exciting creative activities, activities, games. All kinds of free art worksmugs, sports sectionswhich (by choice) all GPA children attend. Games are of great importance in raising children, expanding their horizons, instilling a love for reading books, and an interest in learning. The game is one of the sources of speech and mental development of children, contributes to the consolidation of knowledge, arouses interest in learning new things, develops curiosity. In primary school age, a significant place is occupied byboard games with rules. Participation in games contributes to the formation of arbitrariness of behavior in children, positively affects moral development. With interest, children participate in discussions on various topics, which teaches children to express their thoughts with reason, to listen and hear the interlocutor, to respect someone else's point of view.

Doing homework is a prerequisite for the stay of children in the GPA. In general, during the time of studying in elementary school, the child should develop the following qualities: arbitrariness, reflection, prerequisites for broad cognitive opportunities; he must successfully master the program; in addition, a qualitatively new, more “adult” type of relationship with teachers and classmates should appear. The mutual assistance of children is actively used: when one child has learned something, understood the material, and the other asked to explain. Each child is given a chance to become a helper for someone, and the children become interesting people for each other, the explainer feels like a significant valuable person. This is how the foundations of effective interaction and cohesion in the team are laid, and interest in educational activities is maintained.
