To modern children about the children of war. Children at war, wartime childhood. The exploits of children in the war

28.08.2020

Great theme in schools Patriotic War rises constantly: class hours, competitions, concerts are held, films are shown. Some of the children react sharply, some are not affected by this. Should a teacher set himself the goal of reaching every child's heart with this topic? Is it possible at all for all children to take these conversations to heart?

We have selected the most interesting and indicative of the many comments left on the message.

“You know, I recently caught myself thinking: I myself, with tears in my eyes, listen to the Second World War, etc., but absolutely calmly listen to the war of 1812, the Battle of the Ice ... maybe it's all about the lengths of time?”

“Most of my second graders are still listening, and some people even cry. But they can put a postcard on their head for a veteran and laugh too ... But you need to teach, you need to educate. Although the poems are unlikely to have any effect on them. I tell them about children in war, it is closer to them, they can put themselves in their place. "

“First grade is just kids!
My first tears of sympathy came only after the birth of my children. ”

“The author wrote that she herself was crying in the 1st grade. It's not about age, now children really do not perceive these tragic events that way. I had to send two interested persons to a small commemorative event dedicated to the Blockade. They all refused. Then the two boys agreed to go, I even shed tears because of this. "

“They don't feel anything in both 5th and 7th grade, or they are not interested in anything at all, except for gadgets. This is very sad. "

“I think they are still small in the first grade. I cooked for the fifth this year and the eleventh. The material was different. For five-graders, the film "Unlearned Lesson" served as the basis, for the eleventh she drew a parallel between the life of the children of the Second World War and their lives. Found a very good social media roller. The sentimentality of the older guys was greater. They already understand more, respect more deeply, know the value of life ”.

“Didn't you interrupt? Didn't they interfere? You can already rejoice at this. If they wanted feedback from such little ones, it was necessary to set aside 5 minutes for reflection and put an end to it with some beautiful phrase. "

“Their generations do not know living veterans, did not sort out their orders, did not listen to stories from the battlefields, unlike us. There is nothing to be surprised at. Although my eldest in kindergarten cried at the Victory Day matinee .. But he grew up with his great-grandfather, a living veteran, saw his scars .. "

"The same story. We were preparing for the Day of lifting the blockade. The children said that they were already tired of it ..... both in the classroom and in the extended program .... no words. "

“Maybe just poetry and a selection didn’t touch your soul?
Some verses touch me, some do not. "
“Today at the concert I didn't just cry, but really cried from the bottom of my heart.
Although I saw some of the verses that were read before and they left me indifferent. "

“And today with the 6th grade we watched the film of the studio“ Parachute ”, which was sent to all of us for a class hour. "Children of War" is called. The class is very difficult, impenetrable, as they say. But they watched with bated breath. True, they did not have time to discuss it later. A film about the children of the Second World War and a little about the war in Lugansk. It can be found on YouTube if anyone is interested. "

“And today in 5 classes I talked about the pioneer heroes, showed the film ... The silence was deathly. Then we read "The Story of a Tankman", there was no end to those who wanted to. She asked me to learn any poem about the war at home, for some reason many were happy)))) Then we read "The Son of the Regiment".

"I read the comments and think ..." They won't understand this anymore. Not that generation. " And weren't it we who brought up this generation, isn't it our "puncture" and praise for the generation that raised us. "Their generation does not know living veterans ..." Isn't it our task to maintain memory. There are few living veterans, but there are chronicles and interviews. If you give up and sign your impotence, nothing good will come of it. In the first grade, I would not have aroused sympathy for them at all, not that age. It is better to present the soldiers as super-heroes, to talk about their exploits, about the sons of the regiment, to arouse pride. We need to continue telling, showing, choosing the right material ”.

“Everything is correct, you need to educate ... My son has been asking for films about the war (the Great Patriotic War) for 5 years, and he already distinguishes ninja turtles - fictional" heroes "from our great-grandfathers - real ones, and a man in uniform is an example for him to follow. Especially in a vest and a blue beret. And the school pays great attention to the subject of the Second World War, well, the truth is the school is in a military neighborhood and most of the parents serve. So the military theme is close to our children. It all depends on upbringing. "

“And I was expecting just such a reaction from mine: well, can we go already? And they froze, as if there was no one in the class. 6th grade. We watched the video with the song "Salaspils" ”.

“Today in the 8th grade we read poems about the war, listened to the songs of the war. The disciples listened, read expressively, some did not hide their tears. "

“Now my 11th, 10th and 6th men are watching with gusto 4 tankers and a dog. And the elders will go to the Immortal regiment. Everything from families goes. "

“Sadly, each generation has its own war. And it would be good that there were no wars in our memory, neither past nor present. "

“If we talk too often about patriotism, victory and war, then the true meaning of these words is erased. Hence the indifference. Five-graders said to me: "We are tired of talking about the war," and I understand them. They hear a lot about it now, they hold events every quarter, but they don't understand the true meaning - I don't think this is their fault. A logical consequence of the situation when Victory Day is a ribbon on mayonnaise and tanks in the square, and not a story about the horrors of war. "

“I beg you, the girls in your class will cry over this after they give birth!
And the boys, as they go to the army, will get to the "hot spots" and survive. "

“Even in the first grade, I could burst into tears from everything related to the Great Patriotic War, because my grandfather, a front-line soldier, was alive until April last year, thanks to whom I could not take such a topic indifferently. And now in the family there is no one else to ask about that time, what and how it really was. And I agree with the author of one of the comments: now we are solely responsible for how our children will relate to the theme of the Second World War. And from the realization of this fact it becomes, in fact, very scary for me (((
But let's hold on, colleagues !!! In the name of the memory of those who found terrible time from 1941 to 1945 and who is no longer with us !! And, of course, for the sake of those who are still alive and see how their great-grandchildren are growing!) "

“I am very grateful to the teacher of literature, my children in the 8th grade studied the" Young Guard "by Fadeev, I do not know what happened there in the classroom, but they were imbued with this work. They themselves found the song "Krasnodontsy" for the Festival of Soldiers' Songs, found the video, put their whole soul into the performance. Maybe they've grown up already earlier topic wars did not affect children so much, did not force them to pass information through themselves. "

“Several days ago I attached a St. George's ribbon to my clothes. So part junior schoolchildren almost sarcastically asked, "What, these things can already be put on? Are you already celebrating a victory?" Others asked in bewilderment: "Daria Vladimirovna, what is this with you?" Representatives of the middle management grinned sarcastically: "Oh, Daria Vladimirovna ... a patriot!"

“I just can't understand one thing: do you track the degree of success of such events by the number of crying? Your task is to tell, not bring to tears. Your manipulation has failed, and great. "

“Sobbing is not an end in itself, of course. Sometimes laughter is protection. But more and more often indifference ...

I disagree about age. A child in the first grade can understand a lot, it's just that the perception of war is not right. At the age of 7, I stood a post at the eternal flame and the monument to the fallen along with my classmates. I remember that I was very worried, I tried my best, because such a responsibility, I tried for the dead soldiers. "

“I don’t understand anything anymore. Are you aware that for many high school students 1945 and 1812 are almost the same dates? And why is the effectiveness of a lesson estimated by the number of children who shed tears? Sentimentality will remain sentimentality, and children’s ignorance of the history of their state is fraught. Porridge is in their heads. And not only with them. "

“Do not demand emotions from children that, due to their age, they cannot show you! Do your job: talk about the war, order films, play songs of the war years ... They will grow up! I remember myself at school, the theme of the war was distant and incomprehensible, meeting with veterans, congratulations to them I perceived as social work, a burden. Realization came later, when I became an adult. "

Judge whether I am right or not.
My parents and grandmother live 30 km from us. The car is there. They come to our city every weekend. Either to the theater, then to visit relatives, then to some exhibition, or just a walk, a cafe, a shopping center there ... that is, as if the distance is not a problem at all. They used to visit us periodically. Well, once every 2-3 weeks somewhere. They cuddle their granddaughter for 2 minutes, drink coffee and hang out further. Leaving me dirty cups. Okay, I'm not offended. All the same, they help - sometimes they bring diapers, sliders. OK.
Those. basically my husband and I alone are engaged in the child. More precisely, the husband is at work all day, he is with the child in the evening. And I am in the afternoon. The child practically does not sleep during the day. Well, you can't put it down in any way. Sleep regression, teeth are still outlined ... That is, sometimes I can not calmly eat, wash, tidy up the house, and, excuse me, go to the toilet, because it is worth disappearing from the field of view, immediately op ...
OK. The last time my parents and grandmother came was on March 8th. As it turned out, the mother had a temperature, but the grandmother (old people are like children) was capricious "why won't we go" and they arrived. And the child got infected and got sick. Then I came from her. Then the husband.
I calmly, but still told my mother that, they say, if you are sick, you shouldn't come. The child was 4 months old then. Nothing can really be cured. River snot, temperature. Well why the heck is it ??? Why it was impossible to move the visit for a week. What kind of tears from a grandmother from scratch ?! What kind of whims? Like a child ...
OK. Since then they have not come. Apparently offended, although I asked, they say no.

So that's it. As I said, the child does not sleep. She already weighs 8 kg. It's hard to carry. Plus, after pregnancy, I have a hernia. I'm getting tired. I would like to sit just in silence to drink hot tea. I think many will understand me. Granny calls sometimes. Physically, I cannot always answer. Then I feed and the child is just beginning to close his eyes ... Of course, I hope that he falls asleep and does not pick up the phone. Then we swim. Something else. Yes, even just I can, excuse me, sit on the toilet. Or wash the bottom of a child. But you never know what ... no. She starts ringing non-stop until I pick up the phone. And taking it, she begins to scold me like a schoolgirl with me "WHY ARE YOU NOT TAKING THE PIPE! I CALLED!"
The desire to talk disappears, of course. Parents stopped calling right now. Although in the photo in social networks, I see that they regularly visit our city. I can only walk to the nearest store, that's all my entertainment))). The mood spoils, of course. But I am not complaining to anyone, I am not expressing dissatisfaction. I go about my duties and do not impose my child on anyone. Only me and my husband are engaged in it.
So my mother calls, I starts with complaints, "what is going on at all ??? What's with your mood ??? you don't call! You don't write! I'm calling you!" When should I call? Sleep regression, teeth are outlined .. children do not sleep at all. I'm not rude, I speak dryly and only to the point ... Lack of sleep and fatigue take their toll.
I asked "do I have the right to get tired? I have the right to Bad mood? "The answer is yes. Mother cut off the conversation and hung up. Now she is offended, and I feel guilty.
I repeat that I have never made any claims to them. This is my child, I gave birth to him for myself, and I am engaged in it myself together with my husband. But parents can help, they can find one hour a month to come, take a stroller and walk for an hour with their child in the park. While I’m at home, we’ll eat quietly, or wash the floor and wash myself, but maybe I’ll just take a nap. And if you don't, since you don't come, don't want to or can't, then what grudges towards me why don't I call and why don't write ...? Whenaaa ?? And no interrogations why she didn’t pick up the phone !. I couldn't, then.
I have a lot to do. I think so.
By the way, I grew up with my grandparents. My parents took me for the weekend only. Like they had to work, but there was no time to follow me and my studies. In short, it turns out their parents were engaged with their child.
In general, judge ... Maybe I'm wrong. Or maybe someone had it. I have to rush to the phone and report like a first-grader, why didn't I pick up the phone or why don't I call ?? Have to make excuses for your bad mood and fatigue ??

Sorry for the whole sheet .. It just boiled

The world is beautiful

Yesterday I walk along a narrow sidewalk, a girl is walking towards me, with a dog, and the dog is jumping on all the passers-by. I'm honestly afraid of dogs, I walk with a huge belly, and here a big dog jumps on me. Girl with headphones. Didn't even hear my request to keep the dog away. Of course, I have nothing against animals, yes they are cute (only from afar I can observe), but only it seems to me that it is wrong to keep animals on a long leash while walking, and not paying attention that they are jumping on passers-by? Does that annoy you too?

The situation is this, my daughter recently turned 15 years old, she is an excellent student, usually she shares everything with me, and I just recently learned that she already has some kind of relationship.
In general, since she is in grade 8, parent-teacher meeting about further certification, etc., is not the point. Of course, in addition to this, the conversation was about children. The class teacher gave out information that there are already those in her daughter's class who meet with boys - girls. Among them, she named my daughter, but she meets with a boy not from her class, and not even from a parallel, but from 9. I became interested, and after the meeting I decided to approach the leader and ask about this boy.
It turned out that he also studied with her, did not study very much for the time being - until a time, later, when my daughter and her boyfriend had already started dating, he began to improve in 2 classroom subjects (Russian and literature), maybe in some other, this even the teacher did not know, but found out that he had smoked before, and also gave up when they started dating.
What is the question, how to talk with my daughter about a guy about this, especially who had bad habits? I'm worried that maybe, God forbid, get into the wrong company. And is it worth starting such a conversation at all?

Human memory is bizarre. Russians aged forty and older are the last for whom the word "war" means a very specific war. One for all, the main one, great and patriotic, affecting every family without exception. Recently I was thinking, should I load my children with my knapsacks? After all, it is quite obvious that the connection of times has disintegrated. That cultural codes, common for all Soviet and Russian people from forty and older (and their already departed parents), are becoming obsolete before our eyes, dying off like an atavistic tail. This is how evolution works, the unnecessary disappears. In addition, we must be realistic: it is unlikely that in the course of the next Patriotic War, if one happens, we will have to stab the enemy with a bayonet, throw a grenade under a tank or freeze as a living ice pillar from the fact that the enemies will pour on us cold water into the bitter frost. World War the future will be completely different, more technological, perhaps, remote, postmodern. If it will be...

"But, nevertheless, something worries ..." - writes unknown author in the Internet. And this topic worries not only one of him ...

"I congratulate everyone on the Great Holiday - Victory Day! I propose to exchange views on this issue: when we were growing up, the war was somehow very close to us, kindergarten We knew a lot about the war, read a lot, they constantly showed films about the war on TV, there were often performances on the radio, we played war, drew war, veterans came to us at school ... Yes, and our grandparents told us about the war, about the blockade. And our children, it seems to me, are somehow infinitely far from us in this respect. Maybe we ourselves are to blame for this, or maybe not only we ... "Vasily Yu.

Mine perceive stories about the Great Patriotic War and the Second World War in the same way as about the First World War or the war of 1812. Probably, for them these are approximately equally distant events ...

Well, today's children will know something else, and then ... Do any of us honor the memory of those who fell in the Battle of Borodino? That's just it!

So, in fifty years it will be just a holiday ...

It's sad, but natural. But as long as the veterans are alive, we have a chance to explain to the children what "war" is.

Is it really that so much has changed in 15-20 years, because in Russia "there is no such family where your hero would not be remembered? .."

My people theoretically know the topic, but they cannot accommodate the entire global nature of that tragedy, of course.

I have met many modern boys who study the Second World War with interest. Yes, and mine loves to talk about the war with friends. It all depends on the family, how the family passes on the memory of the war to the children.

My daughter, she is 8.5 years old, is also very interested in war. I try to explain to her, I tell her, she often watches war films, listens to stories of great-grandfathers. But I see that she simply does not understand a lot - why the children died, why there was no food, warmth, and how it is possible to live without light. Most importantly, how can some people kill others? For what? And it's hard for me to explain it to her.

Probably, in a few decades, children will know little at all about this war.

This, it seems to me, will be a direct prerequisite for the beginning of a new, even more terrible war ...

Yes, alas, memory is a thing of the past ...

Are we facing massive amnesia?

A nation that has forgotten its past is doomed to perish!

I don’t know, maybe it’s blood that makes us so painfully perceive everything that is connected with the war, and with the revolution too. Our account for the war is as follows: two of my uncle-aunt children died in a concentration camp from hunger, one aunt died as a child during the blockade, one grandfather is a military pilot, went through the whole war, the second grandfather froze his legs back to the Finnish one, so they and their grandmother Throughout the war they worked in the defense industry "under armor" (until the winter of 1942 in the blockade), only in 1944 he was called up, however, already in the transport train.

I am calm for my children - they will know a lot about the war. Here, I just really want them not to be among their peers "white crows" ...

I went to Temko, the name hooked me. And, although my baby is still only 8 months old, I will tell him about my great-grandfathers who passed the whole war, and about the family of my great-grandfather, buried alive in Mariupol, and about the blockade ... About everything connected with the war. In my opinion, there is no other way. And how can this be forgotten in our country - I do not understand it! It is impossible to forget it! I myself was in the search detachments, restored our defense line in Karelia, and there is now a museum - I will definitely bring my son there. We must not forget this! Probably, it turned out a little pretentious, but this topic is very dear to me!

And I gave mine to read about the pioneer heroes. It didn't work. Not interested. She talked about her great-grandfather, who fought, and about her grandmother, who was a siege woman. The effect is like the war of 1812. According to history, they went through a war. On the eve of May 9, I ask - what kind of day off is this in the middle of the week, in honor of what? “I don’t know,” he says. I start to get excited, I say that if a person lives in a country, then he must know its history, that one cannot be Ivan, who does not remember kinship, and so on. We live not far from the Piskarevskoye cemetery, we walked around, laid flowers, and went to the broken ring ourselves, and with the class. It’s not so close to her — that’s exactly what 1812. I don’t know what to do.

And I think that the Patriotic War of 1812 should also be taken seriously, both to the Battle of Poltava and to the Battle of Lake Peipsi. Then the Great Patriotic War will find its rightful place in the mind and heart ...

And mine really does not know anything (he is 5 years old) to my own shame. Although I tried to tell and explain, I feel that the child does not understand me.

We sat on May 9 watching TV with my nephew, he is 10 years old, and he asks me - "why did this Hitler blow his roof off and he flooded the whole world?" I opened my mouth and I don't know what to say, I just thought to myself, it's good that at least he knows who Hitler is ...

Here is our main parental mistake - we do not know what to answer, but the answer to this question is possible and very, very necessary. It will be difficult to, without tediousness, gradually begin to acquaint with history, the concept of nationalist ideas and the peculiarities of their development, etc.

And what do Kamyshin schoolchildren know about the war? What do they know about their great-grandmothers and great-grandfathers - how did the war go over their fates? Is it possible new war and is patriotism among modern people as high as before? We publish their answers.

- Yes, I know that a long time ago, when there were no my mothers and fathers in the world, and even my grandparents were not there, there was a war. Then the fascists attacked our country. There were very, very many of them, and they were very, very angry, they killed everyone, even children! They threw bombs from planes and the houses collapsed! They destroyed the entire Volgograd!

My great-grandfather, grandfather's dad, fought against the Nazis. And he was wounded in the war - a bullet entered his head from one side, and came out on the other. He still has wounds on his head behind his ears. He is already quite old now. We will go on May 9 to congratulate him on Victory Day.

And then there was another war, somewhere in Chechnya, in which my dad fought with the militants. I think there will be no more war! Because all the fascists were defeated. And the militants won too!

Nope, I don't know what holiday will be on May 9th! War? I don’t know! Who are the fascists? No, I don’t know either! I have never heard such a word! (A little embarrassed). But I know where I live! (says his detailed address).

Kira:

- No, I don’t know anything about the war either, they didn’t tell me anything about it at home, and they didn’t go to school yet. In general, I don’t talk to strangers on the street without my mother’s permission! Oh, there she goes.

Mom came up and said that her daughter is still very young:

We sent her to study at school from the age of six, and for now we protect her from such difficult topics, when she grows up a little ...

Although, - recalls the mother, at school they were taken to the school museum in class, told about the war, showed exhibits, among which the daughter remembered the "lemon".

Kira, remembering, nods her head.

Yes, I know, the Great Patriotic War was with Nazi Germany. It began on June 22, 1941 and ended on May 9. 1945 defeat of Germany. I know that this war was very bloody and that our country suffered heavy losses.

Of course, the war must be remembered, because those who fought accomplished a great feat, and they deserve to be remembered. I want to say to all veterans - thank you! I wish them health and that they live for a long time.

I think that today's people, today's youth are not like those who fought in the Great Patriotic War. Now young people think and think in a completely different way, now they have a completely different life, different hobbies, other technologies ... fascists
in the Great Patriotic War. Although, if a war starts, it will be completely different. It would be better, of course, it was not. But, it all depends on politicians.

I know what holiday we will celebrate - Victory Day, we do not study on this day! I know that there was a war with the Nazis, it went on for a long time, and many people died. Our country won then.

I don't know for sure, but my great-grandfather seems to have fought too. Yes, he probably fought. I'll ask my mom today. I think that there will be no more war, because we have a strong country and no one wants war.

Yes, of course, I know that there was the Great Patriotic War - we are studying this from history. And of course, one must remember about the war, and one must tell the children. This must not be forgotten!

I do not know, unfortunately, whether any of my relatives fought. And where they were during the war - in the rear or at the front, I don’t know, I don’t know. But, I am very grateful to all the veterans, the entire older generation, for the fact that they defended our country.

I think that today people have no less patriotism than the people had then. Yes, people have changed, but if necessary, they will go the same way, and will fight in the same way! But, I really hope that there will be no more war. Because if there is a war, it will bring incomparably more losses and, probably, politicians understand this.

Yuliya:

Of course, I know about the Great Patriotic War! This is our history, and we study history at school. But, probably, they knew more about the war earlier - the veterans were alive, they told. And now even films about the war are rarely shown.

Unfortunately, I also do not know if any of my relatives from the older generations fought. But I will definitely take an interest. It is impossible to forget about the war, so that it does not happen again. Although, if a war starts, it will already be a completely different war, because now there is a completely different weapon.

Yes, people are different now. And, to be honest, I doubt that there are as many patriots among them as among those generations who fought in the Great Patriotic War. I think that among modern people, not everyone is capable of the same feat. But maybe I'm wrong.

I know about the war! It was a war with Germany and Germany lost it. And on May 9, our country celebrates Victory Day in this war.

I don't know if my great-grandfather fought, but my dad fought, only he fought in Chechnya. I would like to say thank you to all the veterans of all wars for conquering the world. Whether there will be another war, I don't know, but it would not have been better.

Anna:

Yes, I heard a little about the war - we have a neighbor, she is seventy-eight years old, and her grandfather fought at the front. He had already died, I had never seen him, but she talked about him, said that he fought. I can’t say anything else - at school we haven’t been through the war yet ...

"Remember the war!" - the testament of the Russian Admiral Makarov, because the memory of the war is not only the memory of victories and defeats. It is always a memory of the valor of soldiers and officers, of the talent of commanders, of the courage of all participants in the war and those who survived this difficult time.

But today already 34% of the 18-35-year-old Russians surveyed do not even know what event the date of June 22, 1941 is associated with, and another 8% are mistaken in their answer to this question (data from the all-Russian research ROMIR).

Public opinion studied L. Kursekova

A thunderstorm rustled over the earth,
The boys took courage in battle ...
Knows the people: pioneer heroes
Remained in the ranks forever!

There are events over which time has no power. And the further back the years go, the clearer their greatness becomes. Such events include the Great Patriotic War. It is important for us to preserve the memory of the war. She lives in books, stories of elders, documents, photographs, letters, hearts.

In those days, boys and girls grew up early: they did not play war, they lived according to its harsh laws. The greatest love for their people and the greatest hatred for the enemy called the pioneers of the fiery forties to defend the Motherland. Little heroes big war... They fought alongside their elders - fathers, brothers, alongside communists and Komsomol members.

Fought everywhere. At sea, like Borya Kuleshin. In the sky, like Arkasha Kamanin. In a partisan detachment, like Lenya Golikov. V Brest Fortress like Valya Zenkina. And their young hearts did not flinch! Their childhood was filled with such trials that, even a very talented writer would invent them, it would be hard to believe. But that was the case. It was in the history of our big country, it was in the destinies of its little guys - ordinary boys and girls.

Are children born to die
Homeland?
Did you want our death
Homeland?
The flame hit the sky - do you remember
Homeland?
Quietly said: "Get up to the rescue ..."
Homeland.

Azanovskaya village library accepted Active participation in the action "The War Gone Through Childhood", announced by the Republican Children's Library. The exhibition "Boys in the 41st", dedicated to the young participants in the war, was arranged.

Three works about young heroes... In the third grade, G. Nabatov's story "Zina Portnova" was read. After reading, the guys shared their impressions of the story. Many talked about their grandparents who fought in the war or worked in the rear.

On May 5, the library invited the 5th grade to read G. Nadzhafov's story "Valya Kotik". A presentation on pioneer heroes was shown. Then the guys were offered to take books from the "Boys in 41" exhibition and write a review about them.

On May 8, the 6th grade came to visit the library. They also made a presentation about the pioneer heroes and read the story of Yu. Korolkov "Lenya Golikov". The guys took books about young partisans in order to read and plunge into those difficult years for our country, to feel and survive all the hardships that befell the young defenders of the Motherland. They were also asked to write reviews of the books they read.

Here is a review of the book by A. Grebinin "Vera Ivanova" by a student of the 5th grade Azanovskaya high school Tsintserova Anastasia.

“I read a book about a girl who took part in the war. The book is called Vera Ivanova. It was written by A. Grebenina in 1970. I really liked the story, because such a little girl was not afraid of the war, she helped the wounded soldiers.

There was a girl named Vera. When the war began, she was 3 years old. Her father went to the front. Soon the news came that Verin's father had died. Then Vera's mother went to war, and Vera with her. Vera was loved at the headquarters and she was presented with a doll. Soon my mother died. The girl became an orphan. And then one day Vera was carrying a letter to the soldiers and met her uncle on the way. He asked her where and where she was going from. Vera got scared and fled to the headquarters. She said that a stranger asked her. The soldiers ran with Vera to the place where she met her uncle. It was the officer here. He praised the girl for not revealing the secret.

In his work, the author wants to show readers that even children fought. No one was spared by the war. Most of the heroes I liked Vera, because she is brave, she is not afraid of anything. Was able to help two wounded. Vera is a fearless girl.

I liked the episode when the main character crawled for water. Not even scared of an enemy tank. I got to the forest and brought water to the soldier. This is a real feat.

The book teaches that you need to help people in difficult times. Be strong, fearless. I would recommend reading this book to girls and boys who do not know anything about war. After all, everything should know about her. This is our story. "

On the eve of Victory Day, we talked with children of different ages about what they know about the events of the war years. Those interested could tell about their relatives who fought. We practically did not edit the guys' answers. And that's what happened in the end. Everyone will make their own conclusions ...

Dasha, 12 years old

I want to tell you about my great-grandfather, Konstantin Dimitrievich Belokobylsky. He went to war in 1942, where he was starving. Was captured, was wounded. Miraculously escaped. In one small village he was nursed by a woman, who gave him a little food. Then he went to the front line. In 1945, he came back from the war, and in 1947 he saved a woman on the railway tracks, but he himself was hit by a train.

My grandmother Olga was also born during the war, in 1943. She was very often ill, she did not finish a single class - she did not go to school, still does not know how to write, reads in syllables. She didn’t speak until she was three years old. From an early age she was a shepherd, and also nursed other people's children. Once my mother took her to the priest, and he said that the girl, although thin, but "the meat will grow." And so it happened: the grandmother is still alive. Since childhood, she believed in God, prayed. He says to everyone that only God helped her to survive.

And grandfather Nikolai said that when he was little, Germans settled with them. The family had 9 children. The Nazis called their mother "sow", and the children were forced to dance to the harmonica. Those who refused were drowned in a barrel of water.

- And grandfather remembered it with hatred - or did he forgive these people?

He just told me how it was.

- What are your own impressions of the war?

This is scary! Hunger, Germans mocked people ...

- What do you think helped people get through all this?

Faith. And hope.

Yura, 11 years old

I want to tell you about my grandfather. Krasnopolsky Stepan Alekseevich. He fought during the Great Patriotic War - he was an infantryman, reached Berlin. After the war, he returned home, built a house and planted a garden, which is still growing and bearing fruit. And we still live in the house. I also had a grandmother, Antonina Georgievna. She was a nurse, helping the sick and wounded during the war and after.

- And what do you know, what can you tell about the war itself?

It was a terrible, biggest war, in which all countries participated against Germany alone. Then there was a very great famine, some were dying. My parents teach me that you need to respect those who died during the Great Patriotic War, and those who went through it.

- When the war began, remember?

We go to grandfather's grave, put flowers. We also go to the monument, to the Heroes' park.

Dasha, 10 years old

In 1945, Soviet troops won a victory over fascism. Then there was a very terrible war. Two of my great-grandfathers participated in it. One of them was a partisan, went missing, and the other received a very serious injury - he was left without an arm.

- What were the names of the grandfathers?

I do not remember.

... Now the war has begun again, only a civil one. I don't want there to be another war, one world war is enough. We want everything for the world! So that everything is fine.

- Dash, tell me, how do you know what kind of war it was?

When will parents tell, when they will explain at school.

We go to the parade, then we come home and celebrate. We go to the square to lay flowers.

There is such catch phrase that Victory Day is “a holiday with tears in our eyes”. Why do you think they call him that?

Because on this day they remember those who died, their relatives, for example.

- Do you remember how many years the Great Patriotic War lasted?

- You go to Sunday school - tell me, have you ever been to the memorial service in the temple on May 9?

Not yet.

Alexa prepared for the interview very thoroughly. In addition to the message about his famous great-grandfather, Mikhail Alekseevich Kovalev, twice Knight of the Order of the Red Star, Knight of the Order of the Patriotic War of I and II degrees, also awarded medals "For Courage", "For Victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War 1941-1945.

- Tell us what you know about the Great Patriotic War?

Many people died. Destroyed all the cities. War came from envy. I was told that the Germans were jealous that the Soviet Union had so many resources, and they attacked without warning. They invaded very early in the morning and started bombing. The radio was broadcasting about the beginning of the war.

- Do you remember how many years the war lasted?

At school we will arrange a concert - there will be a song and congratulatory words. I used to go to a rally with my family and laid flowers. But I don’t know how it will be this year. Such a situation in the country ...

Vadim, 10 years old

I know that the Germans invaded and wanted to capture Donbass. Having done this, they transported all the coal to themselves. And on the people who remained in the mine, trolleys were thrown to kill them.

- Where did you get this information?

My grandmother told me.

- Clear. What else can you tell?

I know that when our troops left, they planted mines. And the Germans, when they walked, let Russian prisoners go at these mines, who were blown up by them. Then the Germans could pass freely. I also know that when they captured us, the children established their own law: they blew up the Germans who rode motorcycles, and took away their weapons and everything else - food, for example. My grandmother told me that too. This was where she lived.

I also know that the Germans made their own take-off site near Odessa. It was so iron that our planes could not bomb it. Then, already in Peaceful time, grandmother's son went there with friends - and they were blown up by a mine. Grandmother's son got in the head, he ran home, but then there was no medicine like it is now, and they went to a neighbor and washed the wound with wine, then bandaged it.

- What's your grandmother's name?

- She is still alive, do you communicate with her?

Yes. But she did not find the war - her grandfather told her everything.

That is, in your family, these stories are passed down from generation to generation. But do you celebrate Victory Day somehow?

We celebrate: they go, buy flowers, put them on the monuments to the victims.

Dima, 11 years old

- Dima, what events of the Great Patriotic War would you like to talk about?

About the feat of Alexei Matrosov. June 25, 1941 at Soviet Union the Germans attacked. They did not warn civilians about the attack, and therefore the people did not manage to escape. They seized everything that was possible: food, things, all the livestock. They (the Germans) moved throughout the Soviet Union.

Alexey Matrosov was born in 1938. He was a very good warrior. In 1944, together with his comrades, he was ordered to destroy three enemy pillboxes. Behind the pillboxes was a fortress, which was occupied by a German baron. The pillboxes were protecting him. The Baron had to be destroyed. Our soldiers destroyed the cannons in two pillboxes, and the third failed. And then Alexei Matrosov closed the gun with his body. After his death, Joseph Stalin awarded him the Star of the Red Order and the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

In addition to Alexei Matrosov, there were other famous heroes. For example, the son of Joseph Stalin, Vasily Stalin, who was born in 1935. In 1942, his house was attacked, he and his father had to flee. They hid in a well-fortified military compound. But in 1945, Joseph's father was badly wounded, so the boy Vasily had to sign up for a job to heal his father.

- Tell me, where did you get all this information?

I learned from my family, my grandmother.

- Was your grandmother a participant in the war?

- How do you celebrate Victory Day in your family?

We go to lay flowers on the monuments to the fallen soldiers, near the Stirol Exhibition and Convention Center and the tank monument.

- Aren't you bored on this holiday - going somewhere, laying flowers?

- Do you watch military films (I mean the Great Patriotic War)?

I watch it almost every day.

- And what attracts you to them?

How ours defeat the Germans.

What do you think, thanks to what ours managed to win? After all, the fascist troops were superior to us in all respects: in terms of technology, training, and weapons ...

Because the Germans were every man for himself, they had no friendship, and ours were friendly, they did everything together - that's why they won.
