APPLICATION OF PREVENTIVE AND HEALTH-IMPROVING MEASURES IN PRESCHOOL CHILDREN BY MEANS OF PHYSICAL CULTURE

The article emphasizes the problem of decreasing health parameters in preschool children. The aim of the work was to study the physical condition and modernize preventive and health-improving measures in physical education in preschoolers aged 4-7. The theoretical and methodological basis consists of theories focused on the patterns of predominant physical improvement of preschoolers (V. I. Lyakh, Z. M. Kuznetsova, V. I. Ilyinich, N. I. Ponomarev, M. Ya. Vilensky, V. P. Filin, L. G. Tatarnikova, N. B. Zakharovich, T. O. Kalinina, M. Yu. Zolotova, G. V. Shiyanova, O. S. Terentyeva, L. V. Lerner, V. P. Pankov). The main methods of scientific cognition were: theoretical analysis and generalization; pedagogical observation; testing and control tests; verification and assessment of physical condition (somatometry, somatotyping, diagnostics of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, motor development, and assessment of the overall level of variation); pedagogical experiment; biometrics. The empirical study involved 60 preschool children (4—7 years old) of both sexes: 28 girls and 32 boys. The key objective of the study was to develop a special complex of physical education with an emphasis on the health of the progressive component of the targeted children, and to test its effectiveness during its implementation in a pedagogical formative experiment. The concept of the algorithm of sequence and content of health-saving component of children’s physical culture was substantiated: current state assessment according to centile tables → mobile games (50% — for motivation to initial motor activity) → basic means of endurance and speed and strength abilities development (25%) → breathing exercises and posture exercises; hardening means (25%). The identified technology contributes to the progress of health status of the targeted preschoolers.
