\u201cThe aim of the competition was to stimulate the creative interest of children and educators in the creation of the nature study corners in their schools. It is as important as the school desks and computers in the classrooms. The school\u2019s nature study corners are not just basic elements of the educational process on the natural history and biology lessons. They play an important part in the upbringing of the younger generation. The matter is not only in the environmental culture and love for the nature of the native land. Communicating with animals, children learn to be responsible and merciful, they learn to be human,\u201d the head of humanitarian projects in the Feldman Ecopark Iryna Yavorska emphasized.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
