After man invented the airplane and conquered the sky, people wanted to go higher. One of the first to think about space flights was the Russian scientist Konstantin Eduardovich Tsiolkovsky.
K.E. Tsiolkovsky is the pride of Russia, one of the fathers of astronautics, a great scientist.

In 1955, a decision was made to build a launch pad for space rockets.
It was in Kazakhstan, far from large populated areas.
The location of the cosmodrome is BAIKONUR.


All the most cherished dreams of the founders of astronautics were brought to life by Sergei Pavlovich Korolev


October 4, 1957 became a significant date in the history of the country - the first artificial Earth satellite was launched. The space age has begun.


The first satellite of the Earth was a shiny ball made of aluminum alloys and was small - with a diameter of 58 cm and a weight of -83.6 kg.
On November 3, 1957, the second artificial satellite was launched, and on May 15, 1958, the third. The launch of satellites made it possible to begin the study of outer space.
Scientists were faced with the task of putting a living creature into orbit. Dogs paved the way to space for humans. Animal testing began in 1949. The first “cosmonauts” were recruited in the gateways - a total of 32 dogs were caught.


Doctors believed that mongrels were not capricious, unpretentious, and easy to train.
The weight of the dogs had to be 6 kg, and their height should not be higher than 35 cm.
The first dog race took place on July 22, 1951.


The mongrels Dezik and Gypsy survived the flight successfully! Gypsy and Desik climbed 110 km, then the cabin with them freely fell from a height of 7 km. At this mark the parachute opened, and both “cosmonauts” landed safely. The second launch ended in failure: the parachute did not open and Desik and his partner Lisa died. During the entire period of experiments - until the spring of 1961, 29 rockets with animals were launched, and 10 dogs died. In addition to dogs, guinea pigs, monkeys, parrots, mice, and rabbits flew into space - all of them honestly served the great dream.


This is a monument to the dog Laika, who flew into space on the second artificial satellite on November 3, 1957.
Since 1952, they began to practice animal flights in spacesuits.
August 20, 1960 a spaceship was launched with dogs on board Belka and Strelka.
On April 12, 1961, Russian citizen Yuri Alekseevich Gagarin went into outer space on the Vostok spacecraft.
He became a space pioneer for all mankind.


Student:
Everyone recognized him by his smile -
There was never a second smile like this!
The whole world applauded! Everyone rejoiced:
Gagarin flew around our globe!
Since then, unknown distances have approached,
Ships are exploring space...
And he started - a Russian, nice guy,
Gagarin is the first cosmonaut on Earth!

Since 1968, the domestic Cosmonautics Day has received official worldwide recognition after the establishment of World Aviation and Cosmonautics Day.

QUIZ:

1.What is space? (Cosmos is a Greek word that denotes the order and interconnectedness of the Universe. There are many planets, satellites, stars, systems and galaxies in space.)

Progress of the game:

IN: Our activity today is not quite ordinary. We're here to take you on an extraordinary journey through a quiz game. And where we will go, we will find out when we read the word by the first sounds - space.

Q: That's right, space.

Q: What else can you call it (Children’s reasoning)

You have to complete many tasks that will help you remember everything we know about space, the planets of the solar system, and what is necessary for a successful flight. It is important to remember that only friendship, ingenuity, and mutual assistance will help you win. And also, guys, I would like to remind you that any game has its own rules. Today you are allowed to think, discuss, respond and reason. But, under no circumstances should you quarrel, make noise, interrupt your friends, or shout out.

A rocket is always built according to a special drawing, which is called a drawing.

I suggest everyone go to the tables and build a rocket using a single blueprint using sticks.

Q: Everyone did the task well. Well done. But in order to go to any planet, you need to find out about the living conditions on it. Now we will split up in pairs and choose a planet for ourselves. I will ask riddles about the planets, and you, after consulting, raise the planet in question. Ready? Begin!

It's so hot on this planet

That it’s dangerous to be there, friends. (Mars)

The king of the sea gave the name to that planet,

He called her by his name. (Neptune)

And this planet is proud of itself.

Because it is considered the largest. (Jupiter)

And this planet was shackled by a terrible cold,

The sun's rays did not reach her with warmth. (Pluto)

The planet is surrounded by rings

And she distinguished herself with all this. (Saturn)

What kind of green planet is this? (Uranus)

Two planets are close to planet Earth.

My friend, name them quickly. (Venus and Mars)

And this planet is dear to us all,

Life was given to us by the planet….Earth. (children answer all together)

Well done boys!

Well, we can take off.

Q: Attention! I declare readiness No. 1!

1 team - to the start! (Everyone puts their hands on their knees.)

Team 2 - starting readiness! - (Everyone slaps their knees.)

Team 3 - Start! (Everyone clap their hands above their heads and say -R-R-R)

Let's fly! (Cosmic music sounds.)

Q: Attention!

The ship is overloaded! Remove the excess! (rows of pictures appear on the board, one of them is extra, which has nothing to do with space).

Q: Well, let's see, what's superfluous? Spacesuit, drum, rocket or star? (drum) That's right. (similarly, 2 more rows of pictures) Well done!

Game “Planets line up!”

B: Well, now let's play. Everyone chooses a planet (a card with a picture of a planet). You will move around the hall to the music. According to my signal “Planets line up!” you must line up the way the planets are positioned in the solar system. Does everyone understand the rules of the game? (Children are built in order of the planets of the solar system)

Q: Now let's test our sunny family with our favorite counting rhyme.

(children count the counting rhyme)

There lived an astrologer on the moon

He kept count of the planets.

Mercury one, Venus two,

Three - Earth, 4 - Mars,

5-Jupiter, 6-Saturn,

Those who don't believe, get out!

Quiz for Cosmonautics Day for primary school

Target : broaden students' horizons.

Decor : drawings and illustrations on the topic.

Teacher . Good afternoon, dear guys. We have gathered today to celebrate one of the outstanding holidays that arose in the 20th century - the anniversary of the first manned flight into space, or in other words - Cosmonautics Day.

Since ancient times, the starry sky has attracted man, but it was only recently possible to reach it.

Man's path into space was long and thorny. This path stretched through thousands of years. And now people's dream has come true - man conquers space.

For centuries, man has looked at the sky. He walked on earth and was not afraid to swim far into the sea, but the sky was huge and incomprehensible to him. Man settled gods in the sky. But the man wanted to go up there himself. And then tales arose about people who could fly, science fiction novels appeared, and aircraft were constructed that remained on earth.

And then the twentieth century came. Airplanes were already flying in the sky, and the first rockets were launched into space. People believed that the day was not far when a man would fly into space.

And finally, April 12, 1961, Friday, an ordinary working day. In the morning he was interrupted by the message: “All radio stations of the Soviet Union are working! For the first time in the world! Man in space!

The day of April 12 became proof of the fulfillment of any, the most daring, human dream. Since then, it has been celebrated annually by humanity as World Cosmonautics Day.
