Adults and children.
This is a good postman,

He also carries letters,
And the magazine "Murzilka".
Who are you, Murzilka? In 1913, a book was published in Russia with drawings by Canadian artist Palmer Cox and text by Russian writer Anna Khvolson “New Murzilka. Amazing adventures and wanderings of little forest men.” And the main character of the fairy tale was called... Murzilka.Knock, knock, knock on the glass... Opened the window,
I see a very strange guest suddenly flying in.
As tall as a fingernail, nimble, slender-legged
And he holds the cane tightly in his little hand...
There was that guest in a tailcoat with tails,
In a silk top hat, with a piece of glass in the eye,
in elegant boots with long socks
And his eyes looked like a dragonfly...
In 1924, the very first issue of the magazine “Murzilka” was published... But with the main character - a little white dog named Murzilka, who traveled with his owner, the boy Petya. In 1937, the “new Murzilka” appeared in the magazine. A fluffy hero, as yellow as a dandelion, in a red beret and scarf, with a camera over his shoulder. It was invented by the artist Aminadav KanevskyHe's very seriousSolid, respectable,At the same time - cheerful,Lively, modern.Funny and fluffyRough at timesScientist, artist,Storyteller, hero.They will tell me suchDoesn't happen in the world... – It happens... MURZILKA! – All children will answer.
This is what Andrei Usachev wrote about Murzilka.
IN different years Famous children's writers and poets worked in the magazine: Agnia Borto, Korney Chukovsky, Samuil Marshak, Sergei Mikhalkov, Irina Tokmakova, Eduard Uspensky and many other writers and artists.

Who are you, Murzilka?
Kravchenko Dariastudents of 2nd grade,
Head: Sokolova N.A.
In May 2014, the magazine “Murzilka” celebrates its 90th anniversary. Several generations of children in our country were raised on the materials of the Murzilka magazine. The purpose of the presented interactive presentation“To the 90th anniversary of the magazine “Murzilka”” (hereinafter referred to as the Presentation) is to inform students about the history of the creation, development and present of this publication. Presentation slides tell about writers and artists whose works are published in the pages of the Murzilka magazine. The magazine "Murzilka" is aimed at children aged 6 to 12 years and serves as an excellent basis for instilling in them a love for the Motherland, nature, people, etc.
The first slide of the Presentation introduces students to a cheerful little man - Murzilka, who in 1887 arose as a result of the work of the Russian writer Anna Borisovna Khvolson. Outwardly, Murzilka of that time was completely different from our contemporary.
Due to the outbreak of the First World War, the publication of the Murzilka magazine was suspended.
And only on May 16, 1924, the first Soviet children’s magazine “Murzilka” began to be published, in which main character transformed into... the boy Petya's dog.
The modern look of Murzilka was invented by the artist Aminadav Kanevsky, who painted it in 1937.
From the beginning of its formation to the present day, the editors of the magazine “Murzilka” have published on its pages the most interesting children's stories and poems by the best writers of Russia (S. Marshak, K. Chukovsky, S. Mikhalkov, B. Zakhoder, A. Barto, M. Prishvin , K. Paustovsky, N. Nosov, E. Uspensky and many others).
Separately, it is necessary to note the colorful and fabulous design of the magazine, which is the result of the creativity of wonderful artists (T. Mavrina, V. Chizhikov, A. Kanevsky, E. Rachev, N. Ustinov, L. Tokmakov, E. Charushin, etc.). The editors of the magazine pay great attention to introducing children to masterpieces of world painting.
The magazine "Murzilka" is unique in its history, because... Over its 90 years, its production has not stopped. In this regard, in 2011, the magazine was listed in the Guinness Book of Records as “the magazine for children with the longest period of publication.” Even during the Great Patriotic War, the magazine was published. An interesting fact is that the July 1941 issue of the magazine “Murzilka” was 75% devoted to the biography and work of M.Yu. Lermontov (15 pages out of 20), which speaks of raising children in the glorious traditions of our country’s past.
The magazine "Murzilka" is currently published in beautiful design and on excellent paper. But in addition to the paper version, there is also an electronic version of the magazine on the website http://www.murzilka.org/.
The Murzilka magazine has an excellent addition in the form of charades, crosswords, riddles, puzzles and other games. The Presentation also pays attention to these additions. It is suggested to draw a clown, solve two crossword puzzles and one rebus. All these games are presented in an interactive form.
The “Draw a Clown” slide is aimed at children studying in special education. correctional school and shows the principle of drawing a clown with a broken line by numbers.
The slide “Solve the crossword and find out the magic object” allows you to solve the crossword together with your children by adding the missing words in the name of the object (... - invisible, ... - self-assembled, etc.).
A slide with a crossword puzzle “Grammatical addition and subtraction” will show children how such crossword puzzles are solved.
A slide with a rebus demonstrates the principle of solving puzzles (aimed at students at a special correctional school).
The conclusion of the Presentation is the “Music Page” slide, which displays the history of the Murzilka magazine by film showing magazine covers (one cover for each year) for the period from 1924 to 2014. The magazine covers are shown against the backdrop of musical accompaniment - songs about Murzilka (words by S. Lezhneva, music by O. Yudakhina).
At the end of the Presentation there is a list of sources of information and links to illustrations.
Performer: 6th grade student Kamila Suleimenova.
Slide 2
"Murzilka" is a popular children's literary and art magazine. Published since May 1924 and addressed to children from 6 to 12 years old. Over the 87 years of existence of the beloved children's magazine, its publication has never been interrupted.
Slide 3
It is named after the fairy-tale creature yellow and fluffy Murzilka. Murzilka got its name thanks to the mischievous and prankster - a little forest man who existed in popular books for children of the late 19th century. It was a little man in a tailcoat, with a cane and a monocle. Then the image of the forest Murzilka changed to the image of an ordinary small dog, helping everyone who is in trouble. But Murzilka in the guise of a puppy did not last long.
Slide 4
In 1937, the famous artist Aminadav Kanevsky created a new image of Murzilka. Since then, in the children's publication “Murzilka” there has been a yellow hero, in a red beret and scarf, with a camera slung over his shoulder.
Slide 5
The main difference between the magazine for children “Murzilka” is high-quality children's literature. Over the years, Agnia Barto, Korney Chukovsky, S. Marshak, M. Prishvin, K. Paustovsky collaborated with the magazine... Currently, the magazine also publishes works of contemporary children's writers. Murzilka publishes children's fairy tales, fairy tales, children's stories, plays, and children's poems.
Slide 6
Murzilka" is not only stories and fairy tales for children, it is also useful children's reading. The magazine’s regular columns, interesting and educational, are a worthy addition to the in-depth study of school subjects: the Russian language (“Detective Agency”, “How the Word Appeared”), geography (“Travel and Discoveries - Great Geographical Discoveries”), natural sciences (Murzilka’s Red Book ), labor (achievements of science and technology in the headings), physical culture (“Champion”), life safety (“Safety School”), fine arts(“Let’s go to the museum”, “Art gallery”, “Murzilka Art Gallery”). Each issue of “Murzilka” contains games and crosswords, riddles and puzzles, rebuses, coloring books, and homemade constructions.

Slide 10
Magazine structure - contents
The structure of the magazine is very convenient. On the first page of the magazine, the main character “Murzilka” holds in his hands multi-colored balls with the names of sections and articles published in the magazine, indicating the pages.
Slide 11
I find educational information in the section “Travel and Discoveries”
Together with travelers, I made many discoveries for myself by reading the “Travel and Discoveries” section.
Slide 12
Travel and discovery
While reading Oleg Tikhomirov’s article “Along the Seas and Caravan Trails,” I became acquainted in absentia with the great traveler and “father of history” - Herodotus and his book “History in Nine Books.”
Slide 13
Traveling with Herodotus, I visited cities located along the coast of Asia Minor, little-known regions of Macedonia and Thrace, the mysterious “end of the earth” Colchis, ancient Babylon, India, Africa.
Slide 14
The sacred city of crocodiles, Crocodilopolis, surprised me. People there know how to tame crocodiles; they put gold rings on their paws and decorate their ears with glass earrings.
Slide 15
Blackbeard - the so-called Vasco de Gama - a simple nobleman devoted to the king, who wore a thick black beard, somewhat longer than that of the king’s other close associates. Determination and perseverance allowed Vasco da Gama to open a sea route to India. Reading this article allowed me to find out - how was it?
Slide 16
Risking his life, hiding under the name of merchant Alimbek, an employee Russian army, adjutant to the Governor-General of Western Siberia, a young officer Chokan Valikhanov, studied Dzungaria and the people who inhabited it, their customs, rites and holidays.
Slide 17
How did Ch. Valikhanov manage to explore the unexplored region - Dzungaria? After all, the law of the Dzungarian authorities was harsh - for violating it, foreigners were beheaded. The article “The Secret of Alimbek or Our Own Among Strangers” helped me find the answer to this question.
Slide 18
The end of the 13th century - medieval Venice. Marco Polo wrote about his journey, which lasted 24 years, in his book “The Book of the Diversity of the World.”
Slide 19
At that time, Europeans called Marco Polo “the inventor.” He writes in the book that in China they pay not only with gold and silver, but also with paper money. What is ignited by “black stones” (that is, coal), which burn hotter than firewood.
Slide 20
Slide 21
But century after century has passed, and readers already find in the “Book of the Diversity of the World” no longer fiction, but interesting facts, which I was lucky enough to learn about.
Slide 22
After the discovery of the continent Antarctica at the South Pole by Russian navigators in 1820, the Englishman Robert Scott attempted to go deep into the continent.
Slide 23
R. Scott's expedition carried out magnetic observations and collected rock samples. The southern point of the world was several miles away. From a distance, travelers saw a Norwegian flag attached to a pole. The Norwegian expedition of Raul Amundsen was ahead of them by a whole month. The return journey was tragic.
Slide 24
The latest notes by Robert Scott, “Man is able to live and endure for the sake of the future,” are impressive. In November 1912, they found the tent in which the heroes died. In memory of the courageous five, a mahogany cross with their names was erected on the top of the hill, with the inscription on it: “Fight and seek, find and not give up.”
Slide 25
James Cook made three trips around the world. Cook brought back a huge amount of maps and scientific records. There was a rumor that he was captured and then eaten by the natives. But everything was not like that at all...
Slide 26
The tragedy took place in Hawaii. The natives began to visit Cook's ship and take away the ship's utensils. They carried away the boat that Cook needed. The demand to return was refused. Cook captured the leader: return the boat - we will return the leader. But something irreparable happened: one of the soldiers lost his nerve and shot the native.
Don't shoot! – Cook commanded. And then he fell, struck by a spear.
Slide 27
The strait between the islands of New Zealand, as well as the entire archipelago, which consists of a group of islands and coral reefs, is named after Cook.
Slide 28
Red Book
Interesting information about the grass called sword grass - the height of the round stem at the top of which are flowers similar to sea urchins, reaches 1.5 meters or more. And the grey-green narrow and hard leaves up to one meter long resemble fighting swords. This is probably where the name came from.
Slide 29
Red Book of Murzilka
Listen to the legend about the appearance of the lily of the valley in Rus'. As if the sea princess Volkhova fell in love with the guslar Sadko. He was devoted to the earthly beauty Lyubava. Volkhova went ashore and cried with grief. So, where her tears fell, lilies of the valley grew.
Slide 30
The condor is the largest living creature birds of prey with a wingspan of up to three meters. The condor lives up to 50 years. The main food of condors is dead animals - carrion, or weakened by disease. Thus, condors play the role of orderlies and reduce the spread of infection. The condor is listed in the International Red Book.
Slide 31
The panda lives in the mountain forests of China at an altitude of 2000 m above sea level. The main food is bamboo. The main enemies of the panda are the red wolf and the leopard. Fleeing from them, the panda rolls head over heels down the mountain slopes. In this case, the animal closes its eyes with its front paws.
Slide 32
The lifespan of a lynx is 15 – 20 years. Hunts hares, black grouse, small rodents, and less often roe deer and deer.
Slide 33
I learned about the unique ability of starfish - regeneration - restoration of severed rays. If the starfish is damaged, but a part with a sufficiently large piece of the central disk remains, then it is capable of growing into a full-fledged animal. It would be good if people had such an ability.
Slide 34
It was interesting to learn that, oddly enough, the eagle owl makes its nest in the ground, in a shelter. There are 3–4 eggs in a clutch. Parents bravely protect their offspring, and the birds themselves can fend for themselves. When an enemy approaches, they raise their wings, stare their eyes, click their beaks, shifting from foot to foot.
Slide 35
Bird kaleidoscope
In the article “Autumn Pictures” of the “Bird Kaleidoscope” section, I learned in a relaxed, artistic way about the life of birds in the autumn: kinglets, firebird, wagtail, bullfinch, etc.
Slide 36
An ordinary bird, the bullfinch, becomes a magician in the fall. If you look at the maple lionfish bag after the bullfinch has held it in its mouth several times, you will notice that the lionfish bag has split along the seam and is empty inside. Here is such a magician - a bullfinch.
Slide 37
Safety School
Slide 38
It turns out that the most poisonous mushroom for which there is no antidote is the toadstool. But there are also very “cunning” mushrooms. They are called false because they disguise themselves as edible, real ones.
Slide 39
How wonderful the summer forest is!
Call! - bird voices and streams. Fragrant! - flowers and herbs. Delicious! - ripe berries. But the forest can also be dangerous. From the section “Safety School” - at the forest edge I learned which wild berries are healthy and which are poisonous.
Slide 40
But if, through negligence, poisoning occurs, the first signs of which are dizziness, sweating, and vomiting, you should immediately consult a doctor.
Slide 41
Slide 43
Having carefully read Neboleyka’s advice in the “Safety School” section, I can provide first aid to myself and my friends.
Slide 44
How to apply a tourniquet, how to treat the edges of a wound with iodine.
If you twist your ankle, before calling a doctor, so that the pain subsides, immerse your feet in a basin of cold water.
Slide 45
Murzilka suggests carefully examining the drawings according to the rules traffic and cross out the incorrect ones.
Slide 46
Slide 47
Health Academy
I read a lot, watch TV and sit at the computer, so special eye gymnastics in the “Health Academy” section were very useful to me. I advise you to get to know her too. I listened to the doctor's advice and began to feel much better.
Slide 48
Neighbors around the planet
In the “Neighbors on the Planet” section, it was interesting to learn about the Indian elephant living in the jungle. It is taught to use its trunk and tusks to drag heavy logs from the jungle to the sawmill. The Indian elephant knows how to stack sawn boards for drying and blows away sawdust with its trunk. The elephant works independently, without any advice or instructions. But when there is no human nearby, the elephant chooses long rest and reflection.
Slide 49
The tiger swims beautifully and sneaks up silently. In severe hunger, it will swallow everything that crawls, flies and swims - fish or turtle, crocodile or lizard, mouse, frog and even locust. Hunts wild deer, goats, antelopes and even bears. Its favorite prey is wild boars. Sometimes he gnaws nuts, plucks grass, picks berries and fruits.
Slide 50
Do you think the inhabitants of the jungle act wisely and can they be envied? They do not look far into the future, do not make plans, and simply live and enjoy every day - no matter how cloudy.
Slide 51
I came up with the name of the column myself – where interesting things are written in the form of a fictional story. From Raisa Kulikova’s story “Joy between Frames” I learned - It turns out there is a butterfly - a geologist - Perlamutrovka. This butterfly loves violets, which grow on the ground with zinc ore. Where Perlamutrovka is, there is ore.
Slide 52
Murzilka Art Gallery
Fans have been invented since ancient times. At first they were made from palm or lotus leaves, and then from ostrich or peacock feathers. There were wooden, metal, and paper fans.
Slide 53
The most beautiful fans were made from the 17th – 19th centuries. These were plates made of gold, silver, mother-of-pearl, ivory, and tortoiseshell.
Slide 54
Fabric that was glued to plates of delicate transparent silk or parchment - thin leather.
Slide 55
Fans were decorated precious stones, lace, exquisite embroidery or painting.
Slide 56
The friendship between man and dog has lasted since time immemorial. As evidenced by numerous monuments and works of art.
Slide 57
For the first time I saw so many paintings by artists depicting dogs. In the works of artists from different times you can see large, strong dogs, hunting and guard dogs.
Slide 58
Small, cute lap dogs are often seen on the canvases - shaggy lapdogs, snow-white fluffy Spitz dogs. Looking at some of the works, one can imagine that the dogs are having some interesting conversations of their own.
Slide 59
For example, in a painting by the Flemish master Paul de Vos, two dogs seem to be discussing newborn puppies among themselves.
After an interesting acquaintance, I will now always pay attention to paintings depicting dogs and be interested in their artists.
Slide 60
Bilibin is a true storyteller: he is famous for his amazing illustrations of Russian folk tales and Pushkin's fairy tales.
Slide 61
Bilibin drew with pen and black ink on large sheets of thick paper, then colored the black and white drawings with watercolors.
Slide 62
Many of Bilibin’s drawings are decorated with an ornamental frame: intertwining strange plants, geometric shapes...
Slide 63
Looking at Bilibin’s illustrations, I visited a fairy-tale world created by the imagination of a wonderful artist.
Slide 64
Our favorite artists
It's hard to imagine that Pinocchio could have looked any different. A wooden man, cheerful, sweet and mischievous, came out of the paint of the artist Leonid Vladimirsky almost half a century ago.
Slide 65
Illustrations by artist V.V. Vladimirsky
The heroes of A. Volkov’s fairy tale “The Wizard of the Emerald City” - the Scarecrow, the Lion, the Tin Woodman and others - were remarkable. Then illustrations for the book “Ruslan and Lyudmila” by A.S. Pushkin, “Three Fat Men” by Y. Alyosha, “Russian Fairy Tales”, etc.
Slide 66
Why has Agnia Barto been read for 100 years?
During this time, so many books by Agnia Barto were published that they could line the shelves of the largest bookstore.
Slide 67
Agnia Barto - childhood writer
The poem “Heat is Hot,” which she wrote when she was only 20 years old. It does not appear in her books now.
Slide 68
Poems of our childhood

Congratulations on your anniversary
For 50 years, Viktor Chizhikov has been drawing pictures for the works of Sergei Vladimirovich Mikhalkov.
Slide 71
Covers of works by S. Mikhalkov with drawings by artist V. Chizhikov.
“I always draw with pleasure, since S. Mikhalkov’s humor and boundless invention are very close and understandable to me,” writes Viktor Chizhikov.
Slide 72
Poems of my childhood
S. Mikhalkov’s poems are also the childhood poems of the artist, member of the editorial board of the Murzilka magazine, Viktor Chizhikov.
Slide 73
I re-read S. Mikhalkov’s poems “Clouds” with pleasure:
I'm lying in a clearing
I'm looking at you from the grass
I lie there dreaming:
Why don't I fly
Like these clouds...
Slide 74

Children's writers
Slide 76
Grigory Oster
Did you know that, in addition to our textbooks, which we study from, there are Grigory Oster’s textbooks on “Doing Nothing,” “Candy Eating,” “Papamamology,” “Hvatalgebra,” “Visual Culture”... All that remains is to find these textbooks and be sure to read them.
Slide 77
Our favorite writers
With a little envy, I learned that twice a year Korney Chukovsky organized cheerful bonfires on his property for the children of the surrounding villages: “Hello, summer!” and “Summer, goodbye!” There, artists and the best children's writers, musicians, acrobats, jugglers, magicians, and animal and bird trainers performed in front of the children on a small stage.
Slide 78
Korney Chukovsky
Korney Ivanovich himself came to the fire wearing an amazing headdress of an Indian leader. And then they lit a fire and danced around it. On your own summer cottage K. Chukovsky built the Children's Library. And the children went there to buy books and loved to read, play, draw and even do their homework there.
Slide 79
Poems by K. Chukovsky
Slide 80
Know yourself
I will always try to be a noble and polite person. If, leaving school, I accidentally slip and an unfamiliar boy, supporting me, says, “Be careful, you klutz!”, I will laugh and say, “Thank you very much, you saved me!”
Slide 81
Psychological tests
Test “Are you friendly?” helped me conclude that I could find common language with everyone and I will be welcome everywhere.
Slide 82
Know yourself
Having chosen the answers to the questions of the test “Are you assessing yourself correctly?”, I found out for myself that I am a serious, independent person and know how to make the right decisions.
