"Combat leaflet": how to arrange a festive issue

Victory Day is a holiday that older and middle-aged people in most of the post-Soviet space treat with special trepidation. And young people show him quite a high interest and respect. In the spiritual and moral education of the younger generations, instilling patriotic feelings, it is important to promote in every possible way the feat of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War and the role of Soviet troops in World War II. For this purpose, open class hours and Lessons of courage, military song contests, matinees and solemn lines are held in schools.

The role of the printed word

The children are particularly enthusiastic about the military-patriotic game "Zarnitsa" and the release of the wall newspaper "Combat Leaflet". As for the competition, everything is clear – rare boys and girls do not like outdoor sports, if, moreover, they require dexterity, endurance, creative ingenuity and are filled with healthy excitement. But the issue of handwritten editions is also a rather complicated and interesting matter. Selecting materials for placement in the "Combat Leaflet", schoolchildren study statistical reports, learn a lot about large and small battles, encounter examples of everyday courage, are imbued with respect for the feat. This helps the children not only realize the greatness of what their grandfathers and great-grandfathers did, but also fills them with a sense of legitimate pride in the past of the Motherland, a desire to protect it. The power of the printed word is great, so the "Battle Sheet", if made with a soul, will attract the attention of all schoolchildren and will be very useful.

The content of the newspaper

What exactly can I advise young journalists "making up" the issue? Almost everyone in the apartment now has computers and other office equipment. Therefore, if the editorial board does not have pictorial talents, you can find on the Internet and print posters of the war, photos of its participants, battles, making explanatory signatures to them by hand. Be sure to include a lyrical "page" in your "Battle Sheet": lines from poems and songs of those years. They are deeply penetrating, sincere, touching and infect with a special patriotic pathos. If there are guys in the class whose veteran grandparents are still alive, you can take small interviews with them and place them in a special category. Or ask permission from adults to use family archives. This idea is especially fruitful if the "Combat Leaflet" is timed to coincide with May 9. Schoolchildren will see not poster heroes, but concrete people living next to them, whose hands won the Victory.

What does it look like?

The design should begin with the title. It may look like this: "The combat leaflet" congratulates..." or "Dedicated to Victory Day!" Use bright colors to create the appropriate mood for readers. And don't forget about the St. George ribbons! Next, distribute the poster sheet into columns-headings. Pick up talking titles for each one, place illustrations. Make room for personal congratulations from fellow students who wished to say a few kind words to veterans.

Newspaper release during the "Lightning Strike"

The military sports game, as already mentioned, originated in the distant Soviet times and was necessarily held in schools on May holidays. In addition, it was included in the list of mandatory events in summer pioneer camps. "Zarnitsa" was a sports competition between the detachments and contained elements of initial military training. Each organizer had their own scenarios, a set of tasks with different levels of difficulties, etc. The participating teams came up with emblems, mottos, secret passwords, identification marks, even their own uniforms. A "Battle sheet" was issued during the Zarnitsa game with summaries of the successes or defeats of the teams, lists of those who distinguished themselves, descriptions of curious or other cases. The newspaper not only informed about what was happening, but also motivated the participants of the game to new achievements, raised the fighting spirit of the guys.
