Method "Tree" L.P. Ponomarenko can be used to assess the success of a child's adaptation at the beginning of schooling and during the transition to the secondary level. The technique allows you to quickly determine the features of the course of the adaptation process, to identify possible problems of the child. Children, immersed in drawing activities, perform the proposed tasks with pleasure, easily identify themselves with one or another little man.

Students are offered sheets with a finished image of the plot: a tree and little men located on it and under it. Each student receives a sheet with a picture of a tree and little men located on it. (but without figure numbering).


Instruction:

“Consider this tree. You see on it and next to it a lot of little men. Each of them has a different mood, and they occupy a different position. Take a red felt-tip pen and decorate the little man who reminds you of yourself, looks like you, your mood at school and your position. Perhaps the higher the little man is on the tree, the higher his achievements, the more successful he is at school. Now take a green felt-tip pen and decorate the little man that you would like to be and in whose place you would like to be.

It happens that some children ask permission to indicate the positions of two little men.

In this case, their choice should not be limited, but it is necessary to fix which little man was marked first and which was marked second, since the ratio of these choices can be quite informative.

Interpretation of results:

The interpretation of the results of the implementation of the projective technique "Tree" is carried out on the basis of what positions this student chooses, with the position of which little man he identifies his real and ideal position, whether there are differences between them.

The interpretation was developed taking into account the experience of practical application of the methodology and comparison of its results with observations of the behavior of students, data received from teachers and parents, from a conversation with the child.

For ease of explanation, each figure is assigned a number.

It should be noted that students do not always understand position No. 16 as the position of “a little man who carries little man No. 17”, but tend to see it as a person supported and embraced by another.

Projective technique "Tree with little men"

Purpose: to study the psychological climate in the classroom.

Children are offered sheets with a ready-made image of the plot: a tree and little men located on it and under it. Each student receives a sheet with the image of a tree and the little men located on it (but without the numbering of the figures).

The instruction is given in the following form:

Consider this tree. You see on it and next to it a lot of little men. Each of them has a different mood, and they occupy a different position. Take a red felt-tip pen and circle the person who reminds you of yourself, looks like you, your mood at school and your position. We will check how careful you are. Please note that each branch of the tree can be equal to your achievements and successes. Now take a green felt-tip pen and circle the person you would like to be and where you would like to be.


Modified version

Instruction: “Guys, look carefully at the picture. Before you forest school. The students in it are forest men. Each of them has a different mood, each is busy with his favorite thing, each takes his position. Perhaps the higher up the tree the forest man is, the higher his achievements, the more successful he is at school.

Take a brown pencil (felt pen) and color the trunk and branches of the tree. And when you color, carefully consider each little man: where he is located, what he is doing. (Children color the tree.)

Now take a red pencil (felt pen) and color in that little man who reminds you of yourself, looks like you, your mood at school and your position.

Now take a green pencil (felt pen) and color in the little man you would like to be and in whose place you would like to be.

It happens that some children ask permission to indicate the positions of two little men. I think that in this case one should not limit their choice, but it is necessary to fix which little man was marked first and which second, since the ratio of these choices can be quite informative.
