Besieged Leningrad - terrible memories of that time. The goal of the school should always be the education of a harmonious personality, and not a specialist

Tue, 28/01/2014 - 16:23

The farther from the date of the event, the less people aware of the event. Modern generation is unlikely to ever truly appreciate the incredible scale of all the horrors and tragedies that occurred during the blockade of Leningrad. More terrible than the fascist attacks was only a comprehensive famine that killed people terrible death. On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Leningrad from the fascist blockade, we invite you to see what horrors the inhabitants of Leningrad chewed at that terrible time.

From the blog of Stanislav Sadalsky

In front of me was a boy, maybe nine years old. He was covered with some kind of handkerchief, then he was covered with a wadded blanket, the boy stood frozen. Cold. Some of the people left, some were replaced by others, but the boy did not leave. I ask this boy: “Why don’t you go warm up?” And he: “It’s cold at home anyway.” I say: “What do you live alone?” - “No, with your mother.” - “So, mom can't go?” - “No, she can't. She is dead." I say: “How dead?!” - “Mother died, it’s a pity for her. Now I figured it out. Now I only put her to bed for the day, and put her to the stove at night. She's still dead. And it’s cold from her.”

Blockade book Ales Adamovich, Daniil Granin

Blockade book by Ales Adamovich and Daniil Granin. I bought it once in the best St. Petersburg second-hand bookstore on Liteiny. The book is not desktop, but always in sight. A modest gray cover with black letters keeps under itself a living, terrible, great document that has collected the memories of eyewitnesses who survived the siege of Leningrad, and the authors themselves, who became participants in those events. It's hard to read it, but I would like everyone to do it ...

From an interview with Danil Granin:
"- During the blockade, marauders were shot on the spot, but also, I know, without trial or investigation, cannibals were allowed to be consumed. Is it possible to condemn these unfortunates, distraught from hunger, who have lost their human appearance, whom the tongue does not dare to call people, and how frequent were the cases when, for lack of other food, they ate their own kind?
- Hunger, I'll tell you, deprives the restraining barriers: morality disappears, moral prohibitions disappear. Hunger is an incredible feeling that does not let go for a moment, but, to the surprise of me and Adamovich, while working on this book, we realized: Leningrad has not dehumanized, and this is a miracle! Yes, there was cannibalism...
- ...ate children?
- There were worse things.
- Hmm, what could be worse? Well, for example?
- I don't even want to talk... (Pause). Imagine that one of your own children was fed to another, and there was something that we never wrote about. Nobody forbade anything, but... We couldn't...
- Was there some amazing case of survival in the blockade that shook you to the core?
- Yes, the mother fed the children with her blood, cutting her veins.

“... In each apartment, the dead lay. And we were not afraid of anything. Will you go earlier? After all, it’s unpleasant when the dead ... So our family died out, that’s how they lay. And when they put it in the barn!” (M.Ya. Babich)

“Dystrophics have no fear. At the Academy of Arts, on the descent to the Neva, they dumped corpses. I calmly climbed over this mountain of corpses ... It would seem that the weaker the person, the more scared he is, but no, the fear disappeared. What would happen to me if it were in peacetime - I would die of horror. And now, after all: there is no light on the stairs - I'm afraid. As soon as people ate, fear appeared ”(Nina Ilyinichna Laksha).

Pavel Filippovich Gubchevsky, researcher at the Hermitage:
What kind of rooms did they have?
- Empty frames! It was Orbeli's wise order: leave all the frames in place. Thanks to this, the Hermitage restored its exposition eighteen days after the return of the paintings from the evacuation! And during the war they hung like that, empty eye sockets-frames, through which I spent several excursions.
- By empty frames?
- On empty frames.

The Unknown Walker is an example of blockade mass altruism.
He was naked in extreme days, in extreme circumstances, but his nature is all the more authentic.
How many of them were - unknown passers-by! They disappeared, returning life to a person; dragged away from the deadly edge, they disappeared without a trace, even their appearance did not have time to be imprinted in the dimmed consciousness. It seemed that to them, unknown passers-by, they had no obligations, no kindred feelings, they did not expect either fame or pay. Compassion? But all around was death, and they walked past the corpses indifferently, marveling at their callousness.
Most say to themselves: the death of the closest, dearest people did not reach the heart, some kind of protective system in the body worked, nothing was perceived, there was no strength to respond to grief.

A besieged apartment cannot be depicted in any museum, in any layout or panorama, just as frost, longing, hunger cannot be depicted ...
The blockade survivors themselves, remembering, note broken windows, furniture sawn into firewood - the most sharp, unusual. But at that time, only children and visitors who came from the front were really struck by the view of the apartment. As it was, for example, with Vladimir Yakovlevich Alexandrov:
“- You knock for a long, long time - nothing is heard. And you already have the complete impression that everyone died there. Then some shuffling begins, the door opens. In an apartment where the temperature is equal to the temperature environment, a creature wrapped in God knows what appears. You hand him a bag of some crackers, biscuits or something else. And what struck? Lack of emotional outburst.
- And even if the products?
- Even groceries. After all, many starving people already had an atrophy of appetite.

Hospital doctor:
- I remember they brought the twins ... So the parents sent them a small package: three cookies and three sweets. Sonechka and Serezhenka - that was the name of these children. The boy gave himself and her a cookie, then the cookies were divided in half.

There are crumbs left, he gives the crumbs to his sister. And the sister throws him the following phrase: “Seryozhenka, it’s hard for men to endure the war, you will eat these crumbs.” They were three years old.
- Three years?!
- They barely spoke, yes, three years, such crumbs! Moreover, the girl was then taken away, but the boy remained. I don’t know if they survived or not…”

During the blockade, the amplitude of human passions increased enormously - from the most painful falls to the highest manifestations of consciousness, love, and devotion.
“... Among the children with whom I left was the boy of our employee - Igor, a charming boy, handsome. His mother took care of him very tenderly, with terrible love. Even in the first evacuation, she said: “Maria Vasilievna, you also give your children goat's milk. I take goat milk to Igor. And my children were even placed in another barracks, and I tried not to give them anything, not a single gram in excess of what was supposed to be. And then this Igor lost his cards. And now, in the month of April, I somehow walk past the Eliseevsky store (here dystrophics have already begun to crawl out into the sun) and I see a boy sitting, a terrible, edematous skeleton. "Igor? What happened to you?" - I say. “Maria Vasilievna, my mother kicked me out. My mother told me that she would not give me another piece of bread.” - "How so? It can't be!" He was in critical condition. We barely climbed with him to my fifth floor, I barely dragged him. By this time my children had already gone to Kindergarten and still holding on. He was so terrible, so pathetic! And all the time he said: “I don’t blame my mother. She is doing the right thing. It's my fault, I lost my card." - “I, I say, I will arrange a school” (which was supposed to open). And my son whispers: "Mom, give him what I brought from kindergarten."

I fed him and went with him to Chekhov Street. We enter. The room is terribly dirty. This dystrophic, disheveled woman lies. Seeing her son, she immediately shouted: “Igor, I won’t give you a single piece of bread. Get out!” The room is stench, dirt, darkness. I say: “What are you doing?! After all, there are only some three or four days left - he will go to school, get better. - "Nothing! Here you are standing on your feet, but I am not standing. I won't give him anything! I’m lying down, I’m hungry…” What a transformation from a tender mother into such a beast! But Igor did not leave. He stayed with her, and then I found out that he died.
A few years later I met her. She was blooming, already healthy. She saw me, rushed to me, shouted: “What have I done!” I told her: “Well, now what to talk about it!” “No, I can't take it anymore. All thoughts are about him. After a while, she committed suicide."

The fate of the animals of besieged Leningrad is also part of the tragedy of the city. human tragedy. Otherwise, you can't explain why not one or two, but almost every tenth blockade survivor remembers, talks about the death of an elephant in a zoo by a bomb.

Many, many people remember besieged Leningrad through this state: it is especially uncomfortable, terrifying for a person and he is closer to death, disappearance because cats, dogs, even birds have disappeared! ..

“Down below us, in the apartment of the late president, four women are stubbornly fighting for their lives - his three daughters and granddaughter,” notes G.A. Knyazev. - Still alive and their cat, which they pulled out to rescue in every alarm.
The other day a friend, a student, came to see them. I saw a cat and begged to give it to him. He stuck straight: "Give it back, give it back." Barely got rid of him. And his eyes lit up. The poor women were even frightened. Now they are worried that he will sneak in and steal their cat.
O loving woman's heart! Destiny deprived the student Nehorosheva of natural motherhood, and she rushes about like with a child, with a cat, Loseva rushes with her dog. Here are two specimens of these rocks in my radius. All the rest have long since been eaten!”
Residents of besieged Leningrad with their pets

A.P. Grishkevich wrote on March 13 in his diary:
“The following incident occurred in one of the orphanages in the Kuibyshev region. On March 12, all the staff gathered in the boys' room to watch a fight between two children. As it turned out later, it was started by them on a "principled boyish question." And before that there were "fights", but only verbal and because of the bread.
The head of the house, comrade Vasilyeva says: “This is the most encouraging fact in the last six months. At first the children lay, then they began to argue, then they got out of bed, and now - an unprecedented thing - they are fighting. Previously, I would have been fired from work for such a case, but now we, the educators, stood looking at the fight and rejoiced. It means that our little nation has come to life.”

In one beautiful city there lived a girl. Her name was Tanya. Tanya Savicheva. The girl lived on Vasilyevsky Island, in a house that still stands today. She was big and friendly a family: mother, grandmother, brothers, sisters and two uncles. Tanechka lived very happily. Everyone loved and spoiled her, because she was the youngest. On holidays, the family gathered at a large table, everyone was cheerful and joyful, they loved to walk along Nevsky Prospekt.

Did you guess in which city the girl lived? (St. Petersburg)

At the time when Tanya lived, our city was called Leningrad. And suddenly, one day, all this happiness ended.

Children read by heart poetry:

Kyiv was bombed, they announced to us,

That the war has begun.

One summer day at dawn

Hitler ordered the troops

And sent German soldiers

Against the Russians, against us.

And menacing clouds of fascist blockade

erupted over the city Leningrad.

Song recording "Get up, the country is huge".

caregiver:

Fascist Germany attacked our country. The war has begun. Terrible, merciless. Cities collapsed, villages burned, bridges and factories exploded. All mans, old men and children from the age of 15 who could hold weapons in their hands went to the front. There they dug trenches, made dugouts and, of course, fought with the German troops, fought, but in moments of calm, they sat by the fire, remembered their loved ones, children, wives, mothers and sang songs.

Let's sit down by our fire now and sing a song of the war years “Fire is beating in a cramped stove.”

Children sing a song to a musical soundtrack.

caregiver:

The fascist army came so close to Leningrad that I could easily view the streets and avenues of our city. But not only to consider, but also to shoot at them. The Admiralty needle sparkling in the sun helped the Germans aim. They gladly spoke: "Great landmark! Watch and shoot!". And then we decided to call for help climbers who were able to climb so high and close the Admiralty needle with camouflage covers. The golden dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral was painted green. The sculptures of horse tamers from the Anichkov Bridge were removed and buried in the ground. Buried in the ground and sculptures in the Summer Garden. Everything around them took on a military look. The Nazis wanted not only to capture Leningrad and destroy it completely. In the autumn of 1941, they surrounded the city from all sides, captured the railway that connected Leningrad with the country.

Look (map, what does it look like? (circle, ring). So and spoke: "The ring around the city closed". This ring is also called blockade. All roads leading to our city were cut. There was only one left - on Lake Ladoga. The terrible 900 days dragged on. Every night the rumble of planes, explosions of bombs. Frosts came very early. It must have never been so cold before. Haven't been home all winter heating, water and light.

Let's make a circle that reminds us of a ring blockade, and then we will come closer to each other, hug and warm each other with our warmth.

Children read poetry:

Plywood boarded up our window

The city is quiet, very dark

The sound of airplanes is heard

They fly low over the roof.

Quietly with lips

Whisper understandable mom:

"Mom, I'm scared

Mom is 125 and no more grams.

Mom cuts her bread

And split it in half.

caregiver:

In the most difficult period blockade bread rations were very small. Here is a piece of bread given to a resident besieged Leningrad for the whole day(show). And that's all, nothing more - just water, for which they went to the Neva. From the last forces they carried water home, because there were waiting for those who could no longer walk at all. The city was plunged into silence, darkness, cold and hunger.

Tanechka went out into the street and did not recognize her city. What changed? (children compare photos with views of the city and black and white times blockade).

And even then the factories were working, tanks were leaving the Kirov factory for the front. Worked radio: transmitted news from the front, music, poetry. Often an artist or an announcer fainted from hunger, but the programs did not stop, because it was the only connection with the country.

The country has not forgotten Leningrad. A road was laid along Lake Ladoga, called the road of life. On it, under enemy fire, bread was transported to the city, and evacuated back old people and children, the wounded. They also evacuated Tanechka, because all her relatives died of hunger and cold and she was left alone. The road was swept up, cracks formed in the ice, enemy aircraft fired at cars - but the road existed.

When the ice melted, bread was transported on barges. In January 1944, our troops moved into offensive. January 18, 1944 the blockade was broken, and on January 27 Leningrad was completely freed from blockade.

Children read poetry:

AT blockade days

Under fire in the snow

Didn't give up, didn't give up

Our city to the enemy.

Here proud, brave people live.

And their valiant work is famous everywhere!

caregiver:

Many buildings in the liberated city were destroyed. Let's try to restore them.

The game "Cut Pictures".

caregiver:

At the place where the ring was broken blockade, now a monument is erected, which is called "Broken Ring". For courage and heroism, our city received the title "Hero City". We will never forget the feat of our countrymen. At the Piskarevsky cemetery, where thousands of Leningraders who died in the years blockade the mournful figure of the Motherland rises.

Guys, today we learned a lot of new things, you are great. I would like you to draw now what you remember the most. We will create an album of your drawings.

Children sit down to draw to the music "Scarlet sunsets."

When the blockade ring was closed, in addition to the adult population, 400 thousand children remained in Leningrad - from infants to schoolchildren and adolescents. School-age children can be proud that they defended Leningrad together with their fathers, mothers, older brothers and sisters.

Stories of children-heroes of besieged Leningrad

From the autobiography of the pioneer of the 7th grade of school 237 Yuri Bulatov: “... there was a set for the trenches. I went voluntarily. Anti-tank ditches were dug near Peterhof. It was hard to dig, the sun was hot, for water it was necessary to go far. I had to sleep somewhere. I slept two nights in a bathhouse, and the rest in hay under the open sky.

In the first months of the war, two girls, ten-year-old Lida Polozhenskaya and Tamara Nemygina, who studied in a ballet circle, became chiefs of the Strict warship. He stood on the Neva. Every Sunday at the same time, ignoring the bombing and shelling, they made a long journey to the other side of the river. The signalman on the bridge, barely seeing the "ballerinas", greeted them with flags, the sailors ran out to meet them. The command was given: "Ovcharenko, feed the chefs!" Then there was a concert in the wardroom.

In September 1941, enemy aircraft began bombarding the city with incendiary bombs. Formed a team of high school students air defense. 15-year-old Mikhail Tikhomirov headed the fire-fighting unit. On an air raid signal, they took up their posts on the roofs and attics of assignments, on the streets of the city. Attendants on duty grabbed them with iron tongs and threw them from the roofs of buildings, extinguished them in the streets and yards.
Once, when, after the end of the air raid alert, Misha reported: “The fire is extinguished!”, We saw that his hair seemed to be powdered with lime. But it was not lime, but gray hair ...
A few months later, Misha died during the shelling of the city ...

Misha's diary has been preserved.
“... Leningrad on December 8, 1941
Leningrad in the blockade ring; often bombarded, fired from guns. There is not enough fuel, the school, for example, will not be heated.
We sit on 125 g of bread a day. Studying in a bomb shelter dog cold. We eat 2 times a day: in the morning and in the evening ...
December 15, 1941
“Everyone notices that my face swells up. This disease is very common in the city. Swelling starts from the legs, passes to the body; many die. Very high mortality among the population. Returning from school, you can meet up to 10 coffins.
The entry ends with January 9, 1942.
“... people walk around the city like shadows, most of them barely drag their feet, on the main roads to cemeteries there are a lot of coffins of corpses without coffins. Corpses just lying on the streets are not uncommon. They are usually without hats and shoes. It will be difficult to endure this month, but we must be strong and hope ... "

During the war years, there was an orphanage in the working settlement of Shatki, Gorky Region, in which children who were taken out of besieged Leningrad lived. Among them was Tanya Savicheva, whose name is known throughout the world.

The diary of Tanya Savicheva, an eleven-year-old Leningrad girl, was accidentally discovered in Leningrad in an empty, completely extinct apartment. It is kept in the museum of the Piskarevsky cemetery.
"Zhenya died on December 28 at 12.00 in the morning, 1941.
Grandmother died on January 25 at 3 p.m. 1942.
Leka died on March 17 at 5 o'clock. morning 1942
Uncle Vasya died on April 13 at 2 p.m. Night 1942
Uncle Lyosha May 10 at 4 p.m. 1942.
The Savichevs are dead. Everyone died."

Then it's not all. Tanya was taken along with other children from Leningrad in 1942 to the interior of the country to an orphanage. Here children were fed, treated, taught. Here they were brought back to life. It often succeeded. Sometimes the blockade was stronger. And then they were buried. Tanya died on July 1, 1944. She never found out that not all the Savichevs died, their family continues. Sister Nina was rescued and taken to the rear. In 1945, she returned to her native city, to her native home, and among the bare walls, fragments and plaster found a notebook with Tanya's notes. Recovered from a serious wound at the front and brother Misha.
Tanya Savicheva's diary appeared at the Nuremberg trials as one of the accusatory documents against fascist criminals.
A memorial plaque in memory of Tanya was opened in St. Petersburg. "In this house, Tanya Savicheva wrote a blockade diary. 1941-1942," is written on the board in memory of the Leningrad girl. Also, lines from her diary are inscribed on it: "Tanya is the only one left."

The great work of protecting and saving the city, serving and saving the family fell to the lot of Leningrad boys and girls. They put out tens of thousands of lighters dropped from planes, they put out more than one fire in the city, they were on duty on the watchtowers on frosty nights, they carried water from an ice hole on the Neva, stood in lines for bread ... And they were equal in that duel of nobility, when the elders tried to quietly give their share to the younger ones, and the younger ones did the same in relation to the elders. And it is difficult to understand who died more in this duel.

In Leningrad, 15 thousand boys and girls received the medal "For the Defense of Leningrad.

In blockade days
We never found out:
Between youth and childhood
Where is the line?..
We are in forty-three
Issued medals
And only in the forty-fifth
Passports.
And there is no trouble in this.
But for adults,
Already lived for many years
Suddenly it's scary
that we won't
Neither older nor older
What then."
Yu.Voronov.

On the way from St. Petersburg to Ladoga, near the Rzhevka station there is a "Flower of Life" - a white stone chamomile. "Flower" was opened in 1968 and is dedicated to the children who died in besieged Leningrad.
The monument stands high above the road, above the river and the field, where anti-tank gouges are still dug into the ground - the Road of Life passed here, along which bread was brought to the besieged city.
On the petals of a 15-meter stone chamomile - the face of a smiling boy and the words of the children's song "Let there always be sunshine." Nearby is a plate on which the inscription is carved: “In the name of life and against war. Children - young heroes of Leningrad 1941-1944.

The material was prepared by Yana Chernavina, a 9th grade student.

Answers.
Child: In the smoke of the Leningrad sky,
But worse than mortal wounds.
Heavy bread, blockade bread,
One hundred twenty-five grams.

There is a period in the history of our city, the tragic events of which touched almost every family living today. This is the blockade of Leningrad.

This is very far from you and me, but from books, films and stories of adults, you also know about the terrible deadly war against the Nazis, which our country won in a fierce battle. Many years ago, when we were not yet in the world, there was a Great Patriotic War with Nazi Germany. It was a brutal war. She brought a lot of grief and destruction. Trouble came to every home. This war was the most terrible test for the people. Who attacked our country?

In 1941, Nazi Germany attacked our Motherland. The war burst into the peaceful life of Leningraders. Our city was then called Leningrad, and its inhabitants were called Leningraders. At the beginning of the war, a wonderful song was born. She called the people to fight: “Get up, the country is huge!” And all the Russian people stood up to defend their homeland!

Very soon, the enemies were close to the city. Day and night, the Nazis bombed and shelled Leningrad. Fires blazed, the dead fell to the ground. Hitler failed to capture the city by force, then he decided to strangle it with a blockade. The Nazis surrounded the city, blocked all exits and entrances to the city. Our city was in the blockade ring.

What is a blockade? This is a siege ring into which the city was taken. The city stopped receiving food. They turned off the light, heating, water ... Winter came ... Terrible, difficult blockade days came. There were 900 of them ... This is almost 2.5 years.

The city was regularly shelled from the air 6-8 times a day. And the air raid sounded. When people heard the signal, everyone hid in a bomb shelter, and to calm them down, a metronome sounded on the radio, which resembled the sound of a heartbeat, telling people that life goes on.

What is a bomb shelter? (These are special rooms underground where you could hide from the bombing)
Life in the city became more and more difficult. The water supply in the houses did not work, the water in it froze from severe frosts. Barely living people went down to the Neva ice for water. Buckets and cans were placed on the sleds and water was collected from the hole. And then for a long, long time they drove home.

The norm of bread decreased by 5 times, such a piece of bread was given to a resident of besieged Leningrad - 125 grams. And that's it, nothing else - just water.
The houses were not heated, there was no coal. People in the room put potbelly stoves, small iron stoves, and they burned furniture, books, letters in them in order to somehow warm themselves. But even in the most severe frosts, people did not touch a single tree in the city. They kept the gardens and parks for you and me.
Here are the children, what a difficult test fell to the people of Leningrad. Until now, this city has preserved a special attitude towards bread. Do you understand why?
-children's answers: Because the city survived the famine. Because there was nothing but a piece of bread a day. That's right, because only a small piece of bread saved many lives. And, let's, and we will always be respectful of bread. Yes, now we always have a lot of bread on the table, it is different, white and black, but it is always delicious. And all of you must remember that bread must not be crumbled, must not be left half-eaten.

Despite such a difficult time, kindergartens and schools were working. And those children who could walk went to school. And this was also a feat of little Leningraders.

Leningrad continued to live and work. Who worked in the besieged city?
The factories for the front made shells, tanks, rocket launchers. Women and even schoolchildren worked on the machines. People worked as long as they could stand on their feet. And when they didn’t have the strength to get home, they stayed right here at the factory until the morning to continue working again in the morning. How else can children help adults? (They put out lighters dropped from fascist planes. They put out fires, carried water from an ice hole on the Neva, because the water supply did not work. They stood in lines for bread, which was given on special cards. They helped the wounded in hospitals, organized concerts, sang songs, recited poems , danced.

Let's now sing a song about the Leningrad boys in memory of their heroic deeds, because many of them have not survived to this day, but the memory of them is alive in our hearts.

The city continued to live. The blockade could not stop the creative life of the city. The radio worked, and people learned the news from the front. Under the most difficult conditions, concerts were held, artists painted posters, cameramen filmed newsreels.

The music sounded for the soldiers - Leningraders. She helped people fight and stayed with them until the very victory.

The Leningrad composer D. D. Shostakovich wrote the Seventh Symphony in this cruel winter, which he called “Leningrad. » The music told about peaceful life, about the invasion of the enemy, about struggle and victory.

This symphony was first performed in besieged Leningrad, in the large hall of the Philharmonic. So that the Nazis would not interfere with the concert, our troops entered into battle with the enemy. And not a single enemy shell fell then in the Philharmonic area.

Winter is hungry, cold. Bread was given on cards, but there was very little of it and many were dying of hunger. There were many children left in the city and only one road along which it was possible to take out the sick, children, the wounded and bring flour and cereals. Where was this road? This road passed through the ice of Lake Ladoga. Ladoga became a salvation, became the "Road of Life" Why was it called that? By spring, trips on the ice became dangerous: often the cars went straight through the water, sometimes they fell through, and the drivers removed the cab doors in order to have time to jump out of the sinking truck ...
the song "Ladoga" sounds

In January, our troops went on the offensive. 4.5 thousand guns unleashed a deadly blow on the enemy. And now the hour has come. On January 27, 1944, Soviet troops drove the Nazis out of Leningrad. Leningrad was liberated from the blockade.

In honor of the victory in the city was a fireworks display. All the people came out of their homes and looked at the fireworks with tears in their eyes.

Our city fought for 900 days and nights and survived and won.
Every day separates us from those harsh war years. But everyone should know and remember the feat of the defenders. In memory of the fallen in those days, at the Piskaryovskoye cemetery, an eternal flame burns near the mass graves. People bring flowers and are silent, thinking about those who accomplished an unprecedented feat in the fight against the Nazis, about those to whom we owe a peaceful life.

Many years have passed since then, but we must not forget about that war so that it never happens again.

Therefore, we have gathered with you so that you hear about this feat of Leningrad and Leningraders

So, dear friends, we talked a little, remembered those terrible days! And now, let's imagine, you and I, these are the very troops that did not allow the Nazis to take our city of Leningrad!

Look at the playing field!

Team 5 - Let's introduce ourselves

Now we are all on the most important line - on the front line! Each team is marked with its own color (picture) And our task is to keep the enemy out of the city!

How are we going to do it?

I will ask questions to each team in turn. On the first line - they are the most difficult. . If you give the correct answer, then you stay on this first line, if not, then step back. And on the second line, the questions will be easier. And the closer you are to Leningrad, the less "Enemies" will attack you

If suddenly, you are already on the last 4 lines, and you have nowhere to go further, then it's not scary! You will help those troops who are still holding the line!

Ready? Then Fight!
