The article considered modern approaches to the formation of environmental awareness of future primary school teachers in the process of teaching an integrated course «I am exploring the world». The current state of formation of ecological consciousness in primary school is analyzed, which is connected with the need to train a teacher who will be able to teach and educate the younger generation, able to coexist harmoniously with nature, rationally use and reproduce its riches. It was found that the formation of environmental awareness of future primary school teachers through the integrated course «I am exploring the world» is activated by integrating methodological approaches to teaching, in particular, axiological, activity, competence and interdisciplinary. The formation of environmental awareness of future primary school teachers is realized through the combination of educational content of natural, civic and historical, social and health education. Ecological education and upbringing are aimed at the formation of ecological competencies of the child, which are formed by the teacher in the New Ukrainian school through the integration of knowledge to solve different levels of problems and tasks that arise in life situations related to environmental protection. This is a necessary prerequisite for the development of environmental consciousness of the citizen of modern society. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
