Open lesson on the topic: “Journey along the Kuban River. Quest – a game for teachers
On the last day on the way to the sea, we drove through the Stavropol and Krasnodar territories. There are very few photos from this day.
A freshly repaired highway somewhere in the Stavropol region. I think I already said it, but it’s worth mentioning again that along our entire route across Russia (more than 3,000 kilometers), with a few exceptions, there were good or excellent roads. The exceptions were sections of roads being repaired and roads of regional importance in the Bryansk region (but they were also being repaired there).
Sunflower fields were often visible along the road.
Unusual bus stop pavilion.
Nicholas Church built in 1856 in the village of Dmitrievskoye (Krasnogvardeisky district of Stavropol). In 1909, the population of the village reached almost 15 thousand people. There were three temples, several schools and colleges, dozens of shops. Now there are less than 3 thousand inhabitants.
Road repair.
Strong brick houses with a hipped roof behind solid fences are typical of Kuban. Many of them are still pre-revolutionary. The roof ridge is often decorated with an openwork metal strip.
“If there is a heaven in the world, this is...”
People here live comfortably. Many Kuban residents set up shops right in their backyards.
Krasnodar, where we stopped at the store. It seemed like a rich city.
We are leaving Krasnodar.
Highway M-4 leading from Moscow to Novorossiysk. When leaving Krasnodar, some passes through Adygea. There are many spontaneous markets on the roadsides where honey and the famous Adyghe cheese are sold.
Soon the mountains appear. Caucasus! Here he is short.
After the ascent, we overcome the Khrebtovy pass (360 m), thus crossing the Caucasian watershed and the border between Europe and Asia according to another version.
And descent. Already in the dark in front of Dzhubga we find ourselves in a large traffic jam. Here for the first time on this trip we saw a car with Belarusian license plates.
Late in the evening we finally reach the campsite in the Betta area.
For such lovers of short-term travel, several routes are offered. They, as a rule, do not require special tourist preparation (just think about the overnight stay!), most of them are suitable for traveling with children.
If the description does not indicate an escape route, then it is recommended to return along the same path. The length of our route is indicated in both directions.
1. To the top of Sober-Oashkh. One of the most popular routes. The walking route begins behind the village of Ubinskaya (54 km from Krasnodar; regular bus from the bus station on Gogol Street near the Cooperative Market). Along a comfortable wide path we go to Sosnovaya Polyana or to the spring at Zvezdnaya Polyana. Then climb to the top (739 m), relax in the meadows, and get to know the surrounding nature. In winter there are wonderful slopes for skiing.
The length of the route is 15 km (1-2 days).
The Akhtsu gorge is one of the most majestic and deep in the Caucasus. Located in the middle reaches of the Mzymta River. The length is 3 km, the deepest place is up to 800 m. The Adler-Krasnaya Polyana highway was built over the river at the end of the 19th century, which winds at such a height that its valley below seems like an abyss. At the narrowest point of the gorge, the road disappears into a 100-meter tunnel, and the rock hanging overhead is called “Carry it, Lord!” At the beginning of the gorge on the left bank of the Mzymta, the Akhtsu tourist shelter fits into the landscape. In the fall of 2000, the All-Russian festival of tourist clubs on sports tourism (hiking, mountain, cycling) was held here.
Mountains, sea, caves, waterfalls, a safari park, clean air and a sea of impressions await you on the ecological route through the Krasnodar Territory and the Republic of Adygea.
Mountains, sea, caves, waterfalls, safari park - the dream vacation of many, many people. But in order to make it a reality, you don’t need much effort and time. About 2 weeks free from work and other activities, and the desire to spend several hours in a row behind the wheel. Don't forget about pleasant travel companions; without them, a car trip will be boring.
We propose to go to the south of Russia, to the Krasnodar region, and capture Adygea. And the route will pass through Khosta, Sochi (Krasnaya Polyana), Dagomys, Lazarevskoye, Tuapse, Gelendzhik, Goryachiy Klyuch, Belorechensk, Maykop, the village of Dakhovskaya and the village of Guzeripl. The total length is 350 kilometers. Not all cities on the route are of interest to road travelers, but a detailed description of the route will help you stay on track.
The nature in the travel destinations is amazing. The mountains delight the eye with all shades of green. In Kuban, the road either runs along the seashore or turns serpentine. Many travelers often fall behind their pre-planned travel schedule, because they constantly want to stop to photograph nature views.
In summer there is a lot of traffic in these places. Thousands of motorists with friends and families from different regions rush to different cities on the Black Sea coast to grab a piece of the southern sun. Therefore, traffic jams are common, especially due to those drivers who are not used to driving along serpentine roads. The length of the most difficult section of the mountain road, from Sochi to Dzhubga, is 200 kilometers. But it also ends - it will be easier further.
Until you pass the Black Sea coast, you run the risk of being stopped by local traffic police officers everywhere. Especially if the car has license plates from a different region. We sympathize with Muscovites, residents of the Moscow region and St. Petersburg residents: these three are breaking records for the number of document checks.
The road along the entire route is excellent. But this is more typical for the Krasnodar region and the route to Maykop. In the Adyghe mountains, asphalt is replaced by a primer.
A pleasant feature of the route is a large number of gas stations along the way. Therefore, there is no need to think about the supply of gasoline. But you should still refuel not at the first “point” you come across, but at gas stations known for good quality fuel. For example, on “ ”, especially since there will be many gas stations of this company along the route.
Vorontsov caves in the Sochi region
Khosta (point of interest - Vorontsov Caves)
The first natural monument on the route is the Vorontsov Caves. This is probably the best thing in this place in the Krasnodar region. They are named after Count Illarion Vorontsov-Dashkov, the Russian governor in the Caucasus in 1905–1916.
To get to the caves from the city of Khosta (this is the Greater Sochi region), drive towards the village of Kalinovoe Ozero, behind which you will find picturesque tea plantations. There are a lot of ascents and descents, so your ears may get blocked. Stock up on lollipops; they make it easier to cope with constant pressure changes.
A special feature of the road to the Vorontsov Caves is the pigs and cows that graze on their own. Many animals lie right on the roadway. Be careful when driving around.
Then the asphalt road descends to the mountain river Vostochnaya Khosta and rises along a serpentine road to the village of Vorontsovka. By the way, excellent honey and homemade wine are prepared here. But the cave is ahead, so don’t be distracted by the tasting.
Closer to the Vorontsov Caves, the road enters a relict grove of tall eastern beeches. It's beautiful and impressive. You have to drive a few more kilometers, and when you see the monument to the fallen pilots, you can stop. 15 minutes on foot - and you are already at the Prometheus Grotto. And next to the cave, don’t forget to take a photo with hand-made pagan idols carved from stone and wood.

Vorontsov caves (now private property) are one of the largest and longest in the Caucasus. Their total length is more than 11 kilometers, the height difference is 240 meters. The caves are not only a remarkable geological monument; in them, archaeologists have discovered numerous material evidence of the settlement of the Caucasus by primitive man, who lived here 15–20 thousand years ago. And in more remote branches of the system, remains of cave bears are still being found.
Before descending into the caves, take warm clothes with you, since the temperature there is the same all year round - about 12 degrees. Humidity – almost 100%.
And here are the impressions and advice from a car traveler who looked into the depths of the cave: “They are allowed inside in groups of 15 people, accompanied by a guide. With every step, the darkness in the cave thickens, the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind remain behind. We are all plunging into the realm of eternal darkness. Before us are high galleries and bizarre snail grottoes. It's hard to believe, but all the endless passages and huge halls are created by ordinary water. It’s not for nothing that they say that a drop wears away a stone. For hundreds of thousands of years, underground streams gnawed into the limestone, and small cracks turned into spacious passages and deep wells. Water still flows through the cave today, washing passages and building dams. Returning to the surface, you have a new appreciation for the sunlight, the beauty of forest flowers, the singing of birds and the bright colors of the Caucasus Mountains.”
The duration of the tour of the Vorontsov Caves is 4 hours. There are 2 kilometers to go.

Sochi (point of interest – Krasnaya Polyana)
The only things better than mountains are mountains. Therefore, after visiting the Vorontsov Caves, we are going for a new portion of impressions - now to Krasnaya Polyana.
Distance - 50 kilometers: 10 - from Khosta to Sochi, and 40 - from the capital of the 2014 Winter Olympics to Krasnaya Polyana.
Drivers, be careful on the road. There are pitfalls on the road - junctions. It's very easy to miss if you miss the sign. GPS navigators rarely work correctly in those places. And all because of preparations for the Olympics. Updates to satellite gadgets do not keep pace with the pace of road construction work. One of the motorists, Andrei, became hostage to the junctions that were incomprehensible at first glance: “The road junction after Sochi was seriously dumbfounding. Firstly, the size. Secondly, ornateness. And there are corresponding signs there. They were probably drawn by an artist. What the corner arrows mean is roughly clear. But what the snake-shaped arrows mean is absolutely unclear. But, having missed the necessary turn and rode around the circle one more time, we still jumped out onto the track we needed on the second run.”
Cable car in Krasnaya Polyana Photo: Shutterstock
It’s better to go to Krasnaya Polyana early. First, there is less congestion. Secondly, if you decide to ride the cable car, you cannot get to all levels due to early closure. Please remember that boarding for stage four stops at 3:40 p.m.
At each stage of the cable car you need to get off and transfer to a new lift yourself. There is a cafe or bar at all stops. The higher the rise, the stronger the drinks on sale. The ascent takes about an hour - an average of 15 minutes for each stage.
For those who are afraid of heights, Krasnaya Polyana will be scary. An autotourist we already know, Andrei, shares his impressions: “When you go up, there are no particularly extreme sensations. So, at a level of 1.5 to 5 meters, you can reach the ground and even with your feet you can reach the bushes. But when you descend, it’s already breathtaking.”
And one more feature of Krasnaya Polyana is that even in the summer it’s chilly there without warm clothes. On many peaks the temperature drops to zero degrees. In some places you can see snow. And don't forget sunscreen. Alpine tan, according to many tourists, “sticks unnoticed, so it’s easy to get burned.”
And in Krasnaya Polyana there are very high prices for food and drinks. Therefore, when traveling to this place, take more money. It is better not to delay your holiday here, as the cost of hotel rooms is also high. Plan about 4 hours to personally conquer this Krasnodar peak and explore the local beauties.
Kiselyov's Rock. View from the sea. Tuapse
Photo: from the Krasnodar Territory website
Tuapse (point of interest - Kiselev Rock)
The further path lies along the coast through Dagomys and Lazarevskoye. The destination of the route for this day is the city of Tuapse. The distance from Sochi to it is 142 kilometers.
Tuapse is famous for its unique natural monument - Kiselev Rock. It is named after the artist A. A. Kiselev, who painted local landscapes at the beginning of the twentieth century.
But the rock is known not only for the name of the famous artist. Remember the movie "The Diamond Arm"? And the fishing episode? It was filmed exactly in the place where our route leads. Every year tourists set records for conquering the rock. And to be honest, this is not an easy task. Therefore, it is better to rest before visiting the attraction.
You can stay in a few hotels in Tuapse or in the private sector. Cost of daily accommodation: with comfort - from 1,500 rubles, in relatively spartan conditions (without a shower and toilet in the room) - from 500 rubles. But there are more places to eat in Tuapse - there are coastal cafes everywhere.
And to the Kiselev rock. It's a beautiful sight. Tourist Irina shares her impressions: “The facade of the rock is a sheer wall 46 meters high, going into the water and continuing there. The depth is decent. The coast around is like a huge layered pie: layers of sandstone and other harder rocks, alternating with each other, stretch parallel to the coastline, forming in places like reefs in the water. And suddenly this bulk rises vertically. The edges of the rock are grooved, and the side facing the sea is perfectly smooth and strong, like concrete. Nearby, it is difficult to access when descending from above, but very picturesque (there is a passage along a stream that drops steeply onto rocky and almost vertical “steps”).”
Tent on the beach Photo: Shutterstock
And now the maximum useful information: there are no springs near the rock. Therefore, tourists need to take water with them. This especially applies to those who set up a tent camp on the shore.
It is dangerous to be near the rock in bad weather. Traveler Victor was convinced of this: “It’s dangerous to pitch a tent under a rock - everything crumbles, water comes from the mountains. But there is also a risk on the beach, as the sea hits with waves. The tent can float.”
We hope that the weather on the days of your trip will be sunny and without precipitation. Therefore, when visiting the Kiseleva rock, take advantage of the recommendation of tourist Elena Kropotova and walk around the surrounding area. At the same time, you will learn a new way to the rock: “You can get to it along the shore from the beach. But there is a way through the heights. The fact is that in the recent past there was a military missile base there. Now it is abandoned. But giant bunkers, underground labyrinths, pillboxes, fortifications and caves remained.” Elena also suggests ways to return from the cliff: “There is an extreme route - through the cliff. Climb onto it, go through the forest and exit onto the highway. The second way is along the coast to Tuapse.”
After visiting the Kiselyov rock, it is worth spending one more night in Tuapse to regain strength, and then hit the road again.
Gelendzhik (points of interest – safari park, Parus rock)
From Tuapse to Gelendzhik 134 kilometers. The path is pleasant: the roads are wide and beautiful, the signs are clear. It is impossible to get lost here. Outside the window there will be wonderfully beautiful nature, but the driver cannot be distracted by it, because speed video recording devices have been installed along the entire section of the road. Closely monitor the headlights of oncoming drivers, who almost always warn of an “ambush.”
In Gelendzhik, it is better to start getting acquainted with the local nature in the safari park. It is located on the slope of the Markhot ridge. The park area is almost 160 hectares. The air there is crystal clear, and all because you find yourself in a deciduous and coniferous forest with clearings where there are many beautiful wildflowers.
In addition to its ecological purity, this natural corner has two more features: a zoo and a cable car with a length of 1,600 meters and a lifting height of 645 meters.
Tourist Alexander advises visiting the safari park in the morning, since it is hot during the day and the animals prefer to rest. Regarding tickets: they can be purchased separately for all types of entertainment, but there are also all-inclusive options. By the way, they are much cheaper.

20 kilometers from Gelendzhik there is another unique natural monument. In the village of Praskoveevka you will find the Parus rock. Its height is 30 meters, length 25 meters and thickness about a meter. All this splendor rises directly from the water, starting on the shore. The rock is fraught with a mystery - a through hole with a diameter of about a meter. There is still no official explanation for this phenomenon. The second attraction of Praskoveevka is the clear sea. Many consider it the cleanest in the Gelendzhik region.
The downside is that in Praskoveevka you may experience difficulties with the quality of cellular communications. And don’t expect to find places here where you can relax with grandeur and music. The atmosphere in Praskoveevka is very peaceful.
If you want to spend a couple of days here, you can rent housing in the private sector. The cost varies from 350 to 1,500 rubles per day. Why such a range in prices? From the availability of conditions for comfortable living.
If you are drawn to where life is in full swing and shimmers with all the colors of the summer south, return to Gelendzhik. Here, after a day's wandering around local attractions, you can relax in a cafe or dance at night discos.
The cost of living in city hotels with all amenities is from 1,500 rubles per day. There are also cheaper ones - from 1,000 rubles, but the comfort is correspondingly less.
Caucasus Mountains. Adygea Photo: Shutterstock
Adygea, village Dakhovskaya
The longest leg of the trip lies ahead – 284 kilometers. To find yourself in the Autonomous Republic of Adygea, neighboring the Krasnodar Territory, you need to drive through Goryachiy Klyuch and Belorechensk. The border between the regions is conditional - a regular checkpoint. Not everyone is stopped there, but if the car has a dull tint (which is against the rules of the road) or a young man of a very athletic build in sunglasses is sitting behind the wheel, be prepared for a wave of a striped baton. Someone will chuckle or even doubt this. But the experience of many road travelers crossing the border of Kuban and Adygea convinces of such features of the work of the local traffic inspectorate.
Next on the way is Maykop. Beautiful city. But since our trip is more ecological than cultural and educational, we are going to the mountains. The path lies to the village of Dakhovskaya. This place can be called the junction of civilization and nature. And this is how tourist Irina talks about living conditions after visiting Dakhovskaya: “There are many tourist centers here with two-story houses with 3 to 4 rooms with amenities. We paid 2,100 rubles for the room. This price includes breakfast in a cafe on site, without choice, but quite decent and varied. You can have lunch and dinner - everything will be prepared at the appointed time, you just need to announce your desire. All verandas offer magnificent views of forested mountain peaks. The houses have free parking for cars.”
Waterfall on the Syuk River. Adygea Photo: Shutterstock
And now about what’s interesting about Dakhovskaya. If you prefer not to travel by car all the time, you can walk to a small farm with horse rentals. Cost – 150 rubles per hour. To do this, you need to cross a suspension bridge over the turbulent mountain river Belaya. At a distance of 3–4 kilometers from the village with hotels and recreation centers, on the Syuk River, there is a waterfall. And above it, on the mountain, are the abandoned adits of the Nikel mine.
If you prefer car trips, visit the Khodzhokh Gorge. You will find it in the village of Kamennomostsky, neighboring Dakhovskaya. This is a unique place where the river has cut a kilometer-long canyon with a width of 5–7 meters and a depth of 40–60 meters. There is an entrance fee to the canyon. Along the way you will also see the Rufabgo waterfalls.
Waterfall on the Malchepa River in Guzeripl, Adygea Photo: Shutterstock
Guzeripl village
The village of Guzeripl is located in the Maykop region at the foot of the Main Caucasus Range. The road leading to it is not easy; in some places the asphalt settles and collapses.
The village itself is small, but for eco-travel this is even an advantage. After crossing the bridge over the Belaya River, you enter the territory of the Caucasus Biosphere Reserve. Paid entrance. On its territory you will find a rich world of flora and fauna, as well as the largest dolmen in Adygea. There is an opinion: if you lean against it and make a wish, it will definitely come true.
On the Malchepa River in Guzeripl you will find a beautiful waterfall falling from the dam of an old hydroelectric power station. You can spend 2-3 days of vacation in the village. It is easy to rent accommodation either in one of 4 hotels or 2 campsites, or from local residents. Cost – from 1,000 rubles per day. Many tourists pitch tents right on the banks of the Belaya River. Products can be purchased at local shops. Don't expect a large selection, but everything you need is there.
Completion of the eco-trip
Still, it’s nice to get out into the mountains and to the sea. And not to spend time aimlessly lying in the sun, but for the sake of active recreation. It’s no wonder that tours to ecologically clean areas with natural monuments are becoming increasingly popular. Residents of megacities miss real nature, the smell of flowers, forests, rivers and waterfalls, and in the Russian south there are a lot of such oases. And if you decide to take the route we propose, we will be very glad. We wish you a pleasant trip!
We thank Elena Kropotova for her help in preparing the material, as well as car travelers Andrey, Irina, Alexander, and Victor.

While we are traveling, a little history.
Slide No. 1
Oh! Kuban, you are my dear mother!
The edge of villages and farms.
Steppe from edge to edge
Drowning in the gold of the loaves.
It's happiness to live in the world
And I can breathe you all my life.
And meet your sunrises,
And see off the sunsets...
Kuban begins with a field - wide and endless. From the Don steppes to the ridges of the Caucasus, like a bowl slightly tilted towards the humid winds of the Black Sea, the expanses of the grain region stretch.
From time immemorial, wide fields along the banks of the fast and capricious river, which gave its name to this region, attracted and beckoned. The Kuban land heard the roar of the hooves of the Sarmatian and Polovtsian cavalry, Slide No. 2, 3 , 4 the clink of gold coins in the leather belts of Greek colonists and Genoese merchants, the mighty tread of Russian squads of Tmutarakan, wild pirates of the Tatar hordes and Ottoman Turks.
Tormented by one or the other colonialists, the aborigines of the Kuban - the Adyghe tribes - waged a bloody and unequal struggle for many years. Slide No. 5 Foreign conquerors, especially Tatars and Turks, plundered the land, ravaged Adyghe villages, captured and sold rebellious mountaineers into slavery, and took Circassian women to all the harems of the East. Exhausted by robberies and violence, the Circassians, or, as they were then called, Circassians, sought protection and help from their powerful northern brother - the Russian people.
Slide No. 6 In 1552, Circassian ambassadors arrived in Moscow to Tsar Ivan the Fourth with a request to annex Adygea to Russia. Having accepted the Circassians into its citizenship, Russia helped expel the Turks from the Azov region.
The Circassian prince Temryuk married his daughter to Ivan the Terrible, and founded his “capital” city of Temryuk on the site of the Tatar-Turkish fortress Tumnev. But before the dust had time to settle on the Russian regiments that had left the Kuban, the Tatars and Turks swooped in again and, pushing the Circassian possessions far to the east, destroyed Temryuk, and in its place they erected their fortress Adis, Slide No. 7 from which their hordes carried out devastating raids on the possessions of the Russian state. Slide No. 8 In 1720, Russian troops entered the Kuban in order to roughly punish the “basurmans” and discourage them from committing robbery in Russian lands. But individual, even successful operations could not resolve the dispute. Slide No. 9, 10 A long war ensued with Turkey.
The systematic settlement of Kuban by Russian subjects began after two Russian-Turkish wars of the 18th century. In 1778, the commander of the Caucasian Corps A.V. Suvorov, having arrived in Kuban, began to strengthen the southern borders of the state. On June 30, 1792, Catherine the Second, which became famous in the fight against the Turks, gave the Black Sea Army (the former Cossacks) the lands of the Taman Peninsula with the surrounding area between the Kuban and the Sea of Azov. Slide No. 11, 12 The Cossacks were given “the island of Phanagoria with all the land lying on the right side of the Kuban from its mouth to the Ust-Labinsk redoubt, so that on one side the Kuban River, on the other the Azov Sea to the Yeisk town served as the border of the military land...”.
Slide No. 13 The first batch of combatant Cossacks, led by S. Bely, arrived here by sea and landed in Taman on August 25, 1792. Slide No. 14, 15, 16 Decades later - after the abolition of serfdom - thousands of peasants from the central provinces of Russia moved to Kuban.

Slide number 22 The Kuban River flows through the entire territory of our region. Its beginning is considered to be the confluence of two rivers Ullukam and Uchkulan, flowing from under the glaciers of Mount Elbrus. The length of Kuban is 870 kilometers, of which more than 700 kilometers are in the territory of the Krasnodar Territory.

Look at the huge path the river travels: first it flows in the mountains, then through the forest-steppe, then through the steppe and flows into the Sea of Azov. The history of the river is very ancient, there are many beautiful legends about it, listen to one of them.
From the North Caucasus Mountains a river has flowed since ancient times. Along the banks of the river, in the forests, lived a wonderful bird - Kuban. She was small, not very bright, but her voice sounded so that the sun rose in the soul of the one who heard it. Local residents loved to listen to the singing of this bird. “Let’s go,” they said, “to the river, let’s listen to the Kuban bird!” Then the river began to be called Kuban in honor of this fabulous bird. Her voice still sounds on the river bank, but not everyone can hear it.
Hence the land is called Kuban, and the inhabitants are called Kuban Cossacks.
The wayward people of Kuban, multinational. It was here that the mixing of cultures, the mixing of cuisine, the mixing of traditions took place. But the basic traditions of our Cossacks remain unchanged. And you will now become acquainted with one such tradition.
Next is ours stop "GAME". And we will play the Kuban folk game:
"The Cossack's Dream"
A “Cossack” is selected from the players and stands in the middle of the circle. The “Cossack” is blindfolded, or he closes them himself. Children move in a circle saying:
Who is chasing devils in the morning,
He sings sonorous songs,
Prevents Cossack from sleeping
And shouts “Ku-ka-re-ku”?
One of those standing in the circle crows like a cock, trying to change his voice. The Cossack, opening his eyes, tries to guess who is shouting. If he succeeds, he takes the screaming person into the middle of the circle. Game continues:
All the cows in the yard
We broke up at dawn.
No one understands
Why "Mu-Mu, Moo-Mu."
The one standing in the circle moos, the Cossack guesses and takes him into his circle. Game continues:
So the Cossack fell asleep again,
But he won't sleep long.
Duck ducks for a reason
Teaches to quack “quack-quack-quack.”
The action is repeated - the Cossack takes the “duck”.
Tired of the Cossack
Quack-quack-quack" with "Ku-ka-re-ku."
- I won't go to bed anymore
I will catch up with you!
At the end of the words, the players forming a round dance raise their hands - “collars”, and the Cossack catches up with those players whom he took into the circle.
Well done! We also completed the second task! Get your second winning spikelet.
And now we are back on the road and our journey along the river continues.
Many villages and farmsteads were built on the land of the Kuban. And wherever you look there is a sea of wheat fields.
And over the Kuban poplars, Slide No. 27
And willows in three girths,
And all the fields, fields, fields
Until sunset. Slide No. 28
...Wheat whispers with the rain
And looks at the road.

And willows in three girths,
And in each there is a generous land
From sunrise to sunset.

Song “COSSACK COSSACK, COSSACK MY SWEET FRIEND”
There is no flour in the barn, and there is no water on the river.
My mother sent me to reap spring crops,
But I didn’t press, I lay on my bed.
I fell and lay there, looking in all directions.
I looked back, there was a Cossack standing behind me.
Cossack-Cossack, dear Cossack friend,
Walk more often, and carry more.
When it’s a ruble, when it’s two, when it’s one and a half rubles.
To the barn for flour, and to the river for water.
There is no flour in the barn, and there is no water on the river.

Program content: Give an idea about Kuban River as the largest and most beautiful river of the Krasnodar region. Show the greatness of the river Kuban and the beauty of those places where it flows. Introduce: with a geographical map of the Krasnodar Territory, show on it the largest and most abundant river - Kuban: where it originates, where it flows; with the flora and fauna of the river. Foster a sense of pride in our great river.
Material: recording of the anthem of the Krasnodar region; geographical map of the Krasnodar region; photographs of fish, birds, wild animals living on Kuban River; set of pictures "Birds", "Fish"; video clip about Kuban River.
Progress of the lesson:
The first verse of the Krasnodar anthem sounds the edges:
Oh, Kuban, you are our Motherland!
Our age-old hero
High-water, free-flowing
You have spread out into all its breadth.
Guys, you have now listened to the first verse of the anthem of our region in which we live. What is the name of our region? (Krasnodar) What is another name for our region? (Kuban) How many of you know why they call it that? (due to the river Kuban) Right.
Look at the map of the Krasnodar region; a river flows through the entire territory of the region.
Its beginning is considered to be the confluence of two rivers Ullukam and Uchkulan, flowing from under the glaciers of Mount Elbrus. Length Kuban – 870 kilometers, of which more than 700 kilometers fall on the territory of the Krasnodar Territory. Look what a huge journey it takes river: first flows in the mountains, then through the forest-steppe, then through the steppe and flows into the Sea of Azov. The history of the river is very ancient, there are many beautiful legends about it, listen to one of them.
A river has flowed from the North Caucasus Mountains since ancient times. Along the banks of the river, in the forests, lived a wonderful bird - Kuban. She was small, not very bright, but her voice sounded so that the sun rose in the soul of the one who heard it. Local residents loved to listen to the singing of this bird. Let's go, they said, to the river, Let's listen to the Kuban bird! Then they began to call the river Kuban in honor of this fabulous bird. Her voice still sounds on the river bank, but not everyone can hear it.
Vos-l: Today, guys, I suggest you go to trip along the Kuban River, on the boat. Come on in, take your seats, put on your life jackets, but before we go journey, let's remember the rules of behavior on river(don’t make noise, don’t throw garbage into the water and on the shore, don’t throw stones at frogs and birds) Is everyone ready? Let's start our journey.
(viewing slides accompanied by a story) In the upper reaches Kuban shallow, fast. In the middle and lower reaches its depth is significant, the banks become gentle. The vegetation of the banks is very diverse - reeds, reeds, and cattails grow here. Rich and diverse animal life world:
Rudd. A schooling fish of the carp family. On Kuban considered a trash fish.
Pike is common. This predator lives in coastal thickets, where it waits for its prey.
Roach lives in fresh waters and overgrown algae. Roach in the Azov-Black Sea basin is called ram
And in overgrown reservoirs there are golden crucian carp. It has a tall body of golden color, with a light belly. Silver crucian carp is no different from gold carp, only in color. Lives in the same places, eats the same.
Catfish is the largest fish in Russia. Its length is about three meters and its weight is about one hundred kilograms. It feeds on fish, frogs, and waterfowl.
Pike perch - Large fish of the perch family, in Azov they grow up to 10-15 kg. It feeds on fish, preferably with a narrow body.
Bream - moves in schools, mainly in deep places. It feeds on both plant and animal food.
Crayfish - feeds on algae and fresh aquatic plants. Crayfish hunt at night. During the day, it hides in shelters (under stones, tree roots, in holes or any objects lying on the bottom, which it protects from other crayfish. It crawls, crayfish, backing away. In case of danger, it stirs up the silt with the help of its caudal fin and swims away with a sharp movement.
Heron - there are several species of this bird - white, gray, yellow, red, as well as night herons and bitterns, both large and small. Herons are migratory birds; they feed on fish, frogs and small animals.
Great cormorants are also found in these parts - very large birds that live on estuaries. This is not an ordinary bird species, as their appearance is quite unusual. The cormorant has a long neck, black shiny plumage and wide wings. He eats about one and a half kilograms of fish per day. Cormorants are excellent swimmers and can dive well.
In the same places you can see the mute swan, whose weight can reach up to 13 kilograms, and its wing length is about 70 centimeters. Such swans practically do not make a sound, but simply hiss, hence the funny name. They feed on plant roots and small aquatic invertebrates.
The avocet bird also lives on lakes and ponds. This is a very beautiful bird, black and white in color, with long legs that have a bluish tint. It feeds on small invertebrates, which it obtains with the help of its long beak.
This bird has a massive body, long curved wings, a slightly downward curved beak and well-developed swimming membranes on its legs. Seagulls obtain food both on water and on land. They love to hunt for fish, shellfish, crustaceans, flying and aquatic insects, and can even destroy bird nests.
The pelican is clumsy, with a massive body, large wings, short thick legs with a wide membrane between the toes, and a short rounded tail. The neck is long, the beak has a hook at the end. On the underside of the beak there is a well-stretchable leather bag used for catching fish. Their color is light - white, grayish, often with a pink tint.
In the Krasnodar Territory, a bird lives in reservoirs with the interesting name of the great grebe, or as it is called differently - the great grebe. The great grebe. The great grebe usually lives in thickets near the water, and it earned this name because its meat smells very strongly of fish. In general, this is a very beautiful bird - its back, neck and top of its head are dark brown, its cheeks are gray, and on its head there is a beautiful crest of a mixture of black and red feathers. She swims and dives very well, and builds her own nests in the water from reeds and cattails. If a great grebe leaves her nest, then, like a caring mother, she always covers it with aquatic plants to protect it from unexpected guests and the sun's rays. When her chicks appear, she carries them on her back for two whole weeks, sometimes going down to the water. The great grebe feeds on various mollusks and fish.
The jungle cat is larger than any of the domestic representatives cats: reaches 60-90 cm in length, weight from 8 to 12 kg. The body of the jungle cat is relatively short, the legs are high, the tail is not long (21-30 cm, and there are small tufts on the ears.
The jungle cat is perfectly adapted to living in dense thickets of reeds and thorny bushes along the low-lying banks of rivers, lakes and seas. The cat avoids open spaces, although in summer it constantly visits lumpy sands overgrown with saxaul near its habitat.
The otter leads a semi-aquatic lifestyle, swimming, diving and getting food in the water. An otter can stay underwater for 3-4 minutes.
It lives mainly in forest rivers rich in fish, less often in lakes and ponds. Found on the sea coast. It prefers rivers with whirlpools, with rapids that do not freeze in winter, with washed-out banks littered with windbreaks, where there are many reliable shelters and places for making burrows. Sometimes it makes its lairs in caves or, like a nest, in thickets near the water. The entrance holes of its burrows open under water.
In winter, when fish stocks are depleted and wormwood freezes, it is forced to wander, sometimes directly crossing high watersheds. At the same time, the otter descends from the slopes, rolling down on its belly and leaving a characteristic trace in the form of a gutter. On ice and snow it travels up to 15-20 km per day.
The otter feeds mainly on fish (carp, pike, trout, roach, gobies, and prefers small fish. In winter, it eats frogs, and quite regularly, caddis fly larvae. In summer, in addition to fish, it catches water voles and other rodents; in some places it systematically hunts waders and ducks.
Resurrection: Now let's make a stop, go out to the sandy shore, relax and play. Physical education minute “We quickly went down to the river...”
