Presenter:
Good afternoon, dear friends! We are pleased to welcome you to the House of Children's Creativity for the game "Ecological Serpentine".
We all owe our lives to the planet - the beautiful and only Mother Earth. Green from forests, blue from oceans, yellow from sands. Our planet is the greatest mystery and miracle. It contains the most mysterious mysteries from the origin of life to the future destinies of humanity.
The science of ecology studies our home - planet Earth and how to live in this house. Everything in our house is interconnected, everyone depends on each other: if the sun goes out, everything will freeze and be covered in darkness; if air and water disappear, there will be nothing to breathe and nothing to drink; if plants disappear, animals and humans will have nothing to eat... Therefore, preserving nature means preserving life.
Airfields, piers and platforms,
Forests without birds and land without water...
There is less and less surrounding nature.
More and more environment.

Just a few lines from Robert Rozhdestvensky’s poem, but they reflect the fact that all of us, people of the 21st century, almost imperceptibly for ourselves, turned out to be not just witnesses, but the culprits of these sad changes. After all, it is we, adults and children, who consume electricity, for the production of which there are entire industries, we drive cars that burn millions of tons of gasoline and require expensive asphalt roads... And factories and factories, huge cities that poison the air, soil and water...
We have gathered here today to discuss a number of issues related to such an important problem of our time as environmental protection. This problem is especially relevant now.
In the meantime, what is required of you? The main thing is that everyone is united by one goal - to preserve, support and improve the ecological well-being of the environment. Only through coordinated and close interaction can significant results be achieved.
Now let's start the game. I invite you on a journey through the stations, where you can win thanks to your knowledge, intelligence and team cohesion.
All your work will be evaluated by a competent jury. (Jury Presentation)
Now it's time for us to get to know your teams. I announce the “Business Card” competition. Each team is given no more than 3 minutes to present. Maximum score – 5 points.

Business Card Competition.
(command view)

Presenter: I see that all teams are ready to complete tasks. Now we are going on a journey through the stations, according to your route sheets. And at the end we gather in this room to hold a homework competition and sum up the results. (Each team receives a route sheet).

Station "Ornithological"
1. This is the smallest bird in our country, 5 times lighter than a sparrow. Lives in large and old coniferous forests. Feeds on small insects. From morning to evening, it swarms in the branches of the spruce, diligently clearing each twig of insects and their larvae. It sings modestly and quietly, but almost all year round, even in severe frosts. (Korolek)
2. This is a very shy and cautious bird. Spends its entire life high in the trees. Very beautiful and noticeable. Perhaps that is why it arrives from the south later than other birds, when the leaves are already rustling on the trees, and flies away before everyone else, before the leaves have fallen. The male sings amazingly beautifully, and the female makes sounds reminiscent of the squeal of a cat, which is why she is called both a flute and a forest cat. (Oriole)
3. These birds are called “northern parrots”. They received this nickname for their crooked beaks: the upper and lower parts are curved in different directions. Nests are built on tall coniferous trees. They hatch chicks in winter. The father bird is very caring. At first, he feeds both the babies and the mother. (Crossbill)
4. These birds make nests from straws and clay on houses, sheds, under balconies and eaves. Some nest in burrows on the high banks of the river. They dig holes themselves. Looking at the birds frolicking in the sky, we think that they are playing. In fact, they tirelessly catch small midges, mosquitoes and flies that fly in the air. These birds rarely and reluctantly fall to the ground, and to rest they sit on thin branches or wires. They even drink water and swim in flight, flying over the water and scooping it up with their beak. (Martin)
5. “They call me “the caretaker of the forest.” I wake up very early and start whistling, as if waking everyone up from sleep. I live in a tree, in a hollow. All my life I’ve been on my feet, running back and forth, up and down the tree, I only need wings to fly from one tree to another. I love nuts, linden nuts, and maple wings. In the fall, I hide food under the bark so that I don’t go hungry in winter. But my coloring is not very noticeable. " (Nuthatch)

Equipment
If the game is played outdoors: for each team, an area plan with a route and indicated locations, a compass, manuals for competitions necessary for each location, signs indicating the location.
The game can also be played in the school premises and in the yard, if it is large enough: instead of a site plan, a plan of the room and yard with indicated routes.

Game conditions
Several teams can take part in the game, which will start the game from different locations (you only need to go through them in the specified order). At each location there is one of the jury members and his assistant. Teams must have a name, logos, and it is advisable to have a motto for each location (I give examples of mottos). Points are awarded for correct answers. A bonus point is added for correct explanation of the answer. The time taken to complete the route is also taken into account in the team classification.

The emblem could be like this

In order to complicate the game conditions on the route between locations, you can use simple obstacle course elements used in tourism, for example, “log”, “web”, “blockage”, “bumps”, “pendulum” and others - this will make the game even more exciting .

Target: to intensify the cognitive activity of students in the field of ecology and nature conservation of protected areas of the Leningrad region, to attract children's attention to environmental problems of the environment, to continue to cultivate a caring attitude towards nature, and to develop the ability to work in a team.

What kind of world awaits our children if we ignore the issue of ecology?

A team of young researchers meets messengers from the future.

The eco-quest was organized by 11th grade students for 4th - 6th grade students. (10-12 years old).

This should be a team of 5-6 people.

Young researchers are students in this game 5 "A" class. gymnasiums, messengers from the future - 11th grade students.

Messengers from the future: In this future, the Earth has turned into a giant garbage dump, sources of light and energy have dried up, and plants and animals have almost disappeared from the planet or mutated.

While traveling together with their “mutating comrades”, the guys learn a lot of important things - and most importantly, how to prevent such a sad future. Young researchers will learn to save water, sort garbage and make useful things out of unnecessary things; they will also learn how to save our planet from extinction!

Practical benefits of the “Saving the Earth” quest:

Careful attitude towards water.
Plants and animals.
Cleaning up household waste.
Garbage sorting.
Second life of household waste: new life for old things.

Quest, or adventure game, is one of the main genres of computer games, which is an interactive story with the main character controlled by the player.

The most important elements of a quest game are the actual narrative and exploration of the world, and a key role in the gameplay is played by solving puzzles and tasks that require mental effort from the player. Elements typical of other genres of computer games include combat, economic planning, and tasks that require the player to react quickly and respond quickly.

Start of action.

In 1-2 days, participants receive an envelope with a task - a word (phrase) is encrypted. This game used the Caesar cipher.

APPLICATION. Envelopes.

Text - In just a few hundred years, our planet could turn into a giant landfill, and to prevent this, messengers from the future have arrived to us. But they won’t be able to cope without the help of young researchers. We will start saving the planet on Friday at 14:00.

Place - ASSEMBLING HALL.

To participate in the rescue, you must solve the keyword using the Caesar cipher. SHIFT IS TWO.

SECURED WORD	ANSWER
yamrnrekb	ECOLOGY

On the day of the quest, teams arrive at the specified time.

START- Assembly Hall.

Quest scenario

Mutating people emerge from the forest into a clearing (2 people).

Mutants: Don't be afraid! We won't harm you. We flew to you from the future for help. An environmental disaster on a global scale arose as a result of the development of civilization (pollution of the atmosphere, soil, and water in all parts of the planet). First, mutation began in those sectors that were most polluted. Later, nature failed and the mutation began to grow. Our scientists have found a way to go back in time to warn people about the impending disaster and change the sad future.

Therefore, we turn to you asking for help. Are you willing to help us?

In the distant past, specially protected natural areas - reserves - were created on the territory of our Leningrad region.

Since ancient times, man has been the most powerful of all living beings as a transformer of the natural environment - at least since the time when he learned to use fire, domesticated livestock, and invented plant growing.

But never have changes in nature been as rapid as in the industrial era of the development of human civilization. Now the natural environment has changed under human influence so quickly that a large proportion of species and ecosystems have not had time to adapt to these changes in any way - and are in danger of extinction.

It was the fear of forever losing species of wild animals and plants, natural ecosystems and landscapes that led to the emergence of specially protected natural areas - areas of land or water surface where economic activities that threaten wildlife are prohibited or limited.

But these areas were also destroyed by humans over time.

How it was possible to remember now (with sadness).

Let's try to clean up a piece of our Earth - part of the Leningrad region, where there used to be specially protected natural areas - reserves.

Quest rules.

The rules of the quest are communicated.

After completing the task, participants will receive a piece of clean “Earth” to cleanse the Leningrad region.

STAGE 1. Water - water purification, respect for water

Water is one of the main resources on Earth. Water is part of any living organism. All living things suffer from polluted water; it is harmful to human life. Therefore, water is our main wealth and must be protected! This topic is especially relevant in our modern world.

Participants in the quest watch experiments with water and complete tasks in the process.

After going through this block, the guys must draw conclusions and answer questions.

Experience “Vinegar vs. Detergent”

The biosphere is in danger due to human activities and the constant desire to increase profits at the expense of the global environment. Greenhouse gases contribute to global warming. Emissions from human activities continue to rise. Chemicals enter the atmosphere and have a detrimental effect on our Earth's ozone layer. Empty containers often remain in landfills indefinitely. We must do our part and take action now to help nature.

diluted vinegar
glass cleaner
cleaning cloth
old newspaper

Time to conduct the experiment: less than 5 minutes.

Let's start the experiment:

Find a dirty mirror or window.
Pour vinegar onto newspaper. The paper must be saturated enough to clean the surface.
Rub half of the window or mirror in a circular motion for a minute.
Use glass cleaner on the other half of the window.
Take a cloth and soak it in detergent.
Wipe the other half of the window in the same way for one minute.
When you're done, look at the glass. Which half is cleaner? Is the difference noticeable?

Note: Manufacturers of glass cleaners use various tricks to lure people into buying their products. They write on the label that they use only natural ingredients. But in most cases this is not the case! So, be careful when buying detergent.

Observation: Which window cleaning method do you consider the most environmentally friendly?

Conclusion. In most cases, there is no difference between vinegar and detergent! Many detergents contain harsh chemicals that are harmful to the environment and atmosphere. Vinegar is a non-toxic acidic liquid and is just as effective at cleaning glass surfaces as store-bought detergents. The newspaper was used to demonstrate how recycled material can replace wiping cloth, which requires a lot of energy to produce.

Experience “Cleaning up oil spills”

An oil spill occurs when liquid petroleum hydrocarbons are released into the environment as a result of human error. This form of pollution can take months, even years, to effectively clean up the environment. The consequences can be devastating, especially for birds and marine life. Birds that are exposed to the ravages of an oil spill are prone to kidney damage, liver failure, dehydration and metabolic imbalances. One of the most destructive oil spills occurred in 1989 in Prince William Sound in Alaska.

To complete the experiment you will need:

small piece of aluminum foil
vegetable oil
baking dish
several cotton balls

Time to conduct the experiment: about 15 minutes.

Let's start the experiment:

Pour water into the baking pan (fill the pan halfway with water).
Make a finger-sized boat or boat out of foil.
Fill the boat with oil and place it on the surface of the water in a baking dish.
Capsize the boat.
Wait a few minutes for the oil to contaminate the water and begin to spread.
Now it's time to restore order. Use your cotton balls to absorb the oil by placing them on the contaminated area.

Note: It won't take you long to deal with this problem. But imagine how much effort will be required when a large amount of oil is spilled.

Observation: You will notice that the oil remains on the surface of the water and begins to dissipate at an almost exponential rate. If you created waves in the water, the oil would spread at a faster rate.

The result: the cotton balls absorb the oil, but also take in a lot of water along with it. If you were to try to clean up a bucket of spilled oil, you would have to put in a lot more effort.

Having made the correct conclusions, participants receive “clean water”.

STAGE 2. Plants and animals

The participants are met by geneticist Ruslan.

Ruslan: Currently, the entire territory of our planet is subject to various anthropogenic influences. The consequences of destruction of biocenoses and environmental pollution have become serious. The entire biosphere is under increasing pressure from human activity. Environmental protection measures are becoming an urgent task.

Environmental problem – problems of the relationship between society and nature, environmental conservation. Over the course of thousands of years, man has constantly increased his technical capabilities, increased his interference in nature, forgetting about the need to maintain biological balance in it.

The load on the environment increased especially sharply in the second half of the 20th century. There was a qualitative leap in the relationship between society and nature when, as a result of a sharp increase in population, intensive industrialization and urbanization of our planet, economic pressures began to everywhere exceed the ability of ecological systems to self-purify and regenerate. As a result, the natural cycle of substances in the biosphere was disrupted, and the health of the current and future generations of people was under threat.

The environmental problem of the modern world is not only acute, but also multifaceted. It appears in almost all sectors of material production and is relevant to all regions of the planet.

Participants are shown what mutations have occurred in animals.

Game "Animal Mutations"- http://devochki-pripevochki.ru/game/igra-smeshivat-zhivotnyh (link)

To save animals and plants, questions must be answered.

1	A collection of specially collected and dried plants.

2	The largest berry, the fruit of a vine.

3	A medicinal plant with a dangerous name for animals.
4	A valuable medicinal plant, the name of which indicates how many leaves it has.
5	What brings tears without pain and sadness?
6	A flower whose name is associated with ringing.
7	Homeland of the tomato.
8	What is a camel's hump made of?
9	Born in water, but lives on land?
10	Who sleeps with their head down?
11	The largest animal on land.

STAGE 3. Garbage sorting

Modern people consume much more than previous generations. Consumption volumes tend to rise every year, and with them the volumes of waste increase. The problem of garbage today is no longer just a difficulty, but a global environmental challenge that requires an immediate solution. In some countries, awareness of the dangers of waste pollution has come quite a long time ago, but in some countries the situation remains at the same level. The environmental problem of waste has received a strong boost due to technological progress. Undoubtedly, he has given humanity an incalculable amount, but the waste situation in the world has also worsened. New types of materials (for example plastic) have been developed that take hundreds of years to decompose or do not decompose at all. As a result, they rot in landfills, releasing a whole bunch of toxins.

Garbage decomposition takes many years.

Participants must independently propose a way to solve all these problems. If the answer is correct, then the participants must sort the garbage into containers on their own for a time of 1 minute.

The task is to look at the photo of the “garbage dump” and pay attention to how old it is necessary for complete decomposition of waste.

APPENDIX FOR STAGE 3.

STAGE 4. Second life for old things

TASK - Place a comma - Contaminate cannot be recycled.

This sign means that the packaging itself is made from a material that can be recycled. If there are numbers from 1 to 7 inside the pictogram, then they mean the name of the material from which the packaging is made. In ascending order of numbers, they mean: polyethylene terephthalate, high-density polyethylene, PVC, polypropylene, polystyrene or other plastic. Sometimes, instead of letters, capital Latin letters can be used, which mean the same thing.

Participants need to find this sign on the packaging and say what can be made from this material.

Participants can view the table for assistance.

STAGE 5. REFLECTION

During the quest, participants receive “pieces of pure Earth.”

As the task is completed, the teams come to the assembly hall and cleanse the Earth.

When everyone completes the task, the “Earth” should be clean - and part of the Len. The area is also clean.

But we leave part of the Earth unchanged and tell the participants that in real life, and not in a game, we must think about our future and everything is in the hands of man.

On a large sheet of paper, the guys will write down their conclusions about the quest and each participant will paste a piece of paper about their activities.

Yellow color - everything went well, I want to take part in another quest again.

Green color - it was interesting, but I had to think, I made a few mistakes.

Red color - it was difficult, not clear and not interesting.

"Tree of Success"

This is a reflection for the creators of the quest. Paint over yourself and sign.
