Linguistic readiness of the child for school. Speech readiness of the child. What is school readiness?

The most significant thing for a 7-year-old child is the transition to a new social status: a preschooler becomes a schoolchild. The transition from play activities to educational activities significantly influences the child’s motives and behavior. The quality of educational activities will depend on the extent to which the following prerequisites have been formed in the preschool period: - good physical development of the child; - developed physical hearing; - developed fine motor skills of the fingers, general motor skills; - normal functioning of the central nervous system; - possession of knowledge and ideas about the surrounding world (space, time, counting operations); - voluntary attention, indirect memorization, ability to listen to the teacher; - cognitive activity, desire to learn, interest in knowledge, curiosity; communicative activity, readiness to work together with other children, cooperation, mutual assistance. On the basis of these prerequisites, at primary school age, new qualities necessary for learning begin to form. Readiness for school education is formed long before entering school and is not completed in the first grade, since it includes not only a qualitative characteristic of the stock of knowledge and ideas, but also the level of development of generalizing thinking activity.

Speech readiness for school learning is one of the most important results of a child’s development.

in the first seven years of his life.

1. The problem of children’s speech readiness for schooling

The most significant thing for a 7-year-old child is the transition to a new social status: a preschooler becomes a schoolchild. The transition from play activities to educational activities significantly influences the child’s motives and behavior. The quality of educational activities will depend on the extent to which the following prerequisites were formed in the preschool period:

Good physical development of the child;

Developed physical hearing;

Developed fine motor skills of fingers, general motor skills;

Normal functioning of the central nervous system;

Possession of knowledge and ideas about the surrounding world (space, time, counting operations);

Voluntary attention, indirect memorization, ability to listen to the teacher;

Cognitive activity, desire to learn, interest in knowledge, curiosity;

communicative activity, readiness to work together with other children, cooperation, mutual assistance.

On the basis of these prerequisites, at primary school age, new qualities necessary for learning begin to form.

Schooling places new demands on the child’s speech, attention, and memory. Psychological readiness for learning plays a significant role, i.e. his awareness of the social significance of his new activity.

Special criteria for readiness for schooling are applied to a child’s acquisition of his native language as a means of communication. Let's list them.

5. Formation of the grammatical structure of speech

The basis of children’s speech readiness for school is oral speech, therefore the first years of a child’s life should be devoted to the practical acquisition of oral speech. Before the child enters school, work on speech development includes the following sections: development of speech in children, its flexibility, clarity; development of speech hearing; accumulation of speech content; work on the form of speech, its structure.

Associated with the processes of mastering and developing speech in preschoolers is the question of the preschooler’s speech readiness for learning activities; the importance of this issue was recognized by Ya.A. Komensky, I.G. Pestalozzi, F. Froebel, M. Montessori, M.V. Lomonosov, K.D. Ushinsky, L.S. Vygotsky, L.A. Wenger, T.A. Ladyzhenskaya, A.A. Lublinskaya, D. Cheney. Researchers note that speech is the main indicator of the level of formation of cognitive processes, a factor in successful learning and knowledge of the world around us.

In psychological and pedagogical research, a distinction is made between “general” and “special” speech readiness. General readiness involves solving the following tasks:

The child understands the speech addressed to him and responds to it accordingly;

The ability to express one’s thoughts coherently, freely and clearly, while maintaining grammatical correctness of speech;

Mastery of a certain vocabulary;

Formation of the sound side of speech.

Special speech readiness presupposes readiness to learn literacy (reading and writing).

The main areas of work in speech training of preschoolers should be:

1. General speech training:

Development of speech creativity, accumulation and enrichment of vocabulary;

Improving grammatical correctness of speech;

Development of abilities for speech activity.

2. Special speech training:

Development of elementary awareness of linguistic reality;

Development of the ability to navigate the sound culture of words;

Preparing to learn reading and writing.

Speech readiness for learning at school presupposes the formation of general and special speech readiness, but their ratio is not equal, since it is necessary to take into account a new type of activity, a new communication situation and a new content of communication. Speech readiness for learning at school is manifested in the development of children's verbal listening and speaking skills: the ability to perceive information offered through linguistic means, the ability to verbalize their actions, including those related to language material, and determine their sequence; the ability to distinguish between units of the language system and other types of signs; mastery of informational, cognitive, regulatory functions of language.

The presence of even slight deviations in these parameters among first-graders leads to serious problems in mastering general education school programs.

1.2 Development of a child’s speech as a component in the structure of readiness for schooling

How to correctly assess the state of your child’s speech?

Many parents believe that they should not interfere with the process of speech formation, that the child will grow up and “everything will improve on its own,” and he will learn to speak on his own. In order to correctly assess the level of speech development of a child, it is necessary to become familiar with how the child’s speech development proceeds normally. The concept of a norm in this case is very conditional - there is no one, uniform age for all children when they begin to talk, much depends on the individuality of the child.

Speech is not an innate ability of a person; it is formed gradually, along with the development of the child and under the influence of the speech of adults. The social and speech environment surrounding the child is not only a condition, but also a source of speech development. Without a healthy language environment, full speech development is unthinkable.

For normal speech formation, a certain maturity of the child’s cerebral cortex and sensory organs is necessary; the child’s psychophysical health is of great importance.

Speech begins to develop almost from the first days of life and goes through several stages of development.

The very first speech manifestation is a cry. Typically, the period of infant crying lasts from birth to 2 months. At 2-3 months, the cry begins to change qualitatively and the child begins to hum and laugh. Walking is an important stage in preverbal speech development. At this time, along with preparing the speech apparatus for pronouncing sounds, the process of developing speech understanding is carried out when the baby learns to control intonation.

The next stage of development is characterized by the appearance of babbling, and lasts approximately 5 to 9 months. By 9-10 months, in addition to individual sounds and sound combinations, the child begins to develop his first babbling words. By the end of the first year or the beginning of the second, the child usually pronounces his first real word, consciously beginning to use speech.

Around 1.5-2 years old, children begin to speak in separate short phrases.

By the end of the 3rd year of life, the child can correctly pronounce most sounds of his native language.

By the age of 5, the active vocabulary increases, the phrase lengthens and becomes more complex, and most children complete the process of forming sound pronunciation.

By the age of 7, a child correctly pronounces all the sounds of his native language, has a fairly rich vocabulary and practically masters grammatically correct speech.

Thus, during the period of preschool childhood, the child practically masters speech.

A child's readiness or unpreparedness to start school is determined by the level of his speech development. This is due to the fact that it is with the help of speech, oral and written, that he has to assimilate the entire system of knowledge. The better a child’s oral speech is developed by the time he enters school, the easier it will be for him to master reading and writing and the more complete the acquired written speech will be.

Therefore, it is very important to identify even the most minor deviations in the speech development of a preschooler and have time to overcome them before he starts school.

R.S. Nemov argues that children’s speech readiness for teaching and learning, first of all, is manifested in their ability to use it for voluntary control of behavior and cognitive processes. No less important is the development of speech as a means of communication and a prerequisite for mastering writing.

At preschool age, the process of mastering speech is basically completed:

By the age of 7, language becomes a means of communication and thinking of the child, also a subject of conscious study, since in preparation for school, learning to read and write begins;

The sound side of speech develops; younger preschoolers begin to realize the peculiarities of their pronunciation, the process of phonemic development is completed;

The grammatical structure of speech develops; children acquire patterns of morphological order and syntactic order; mastering the grammatical forms of the language and acquiring a larger active vocabulary.

An analysis of the literature on the readiness of a child with speech pathology to study at school revealed the following difficulties that arise in these children:

1. Lack of formation of the sound side of speech. The child does not have the correct, clear sound pronunciation of sounds of all phonetic groups.

2. Not fully formed phonemic processes, i.e. they do not hear, do not distinguish, do not differentiate the sounds of their native language.

3. Not ready for sound-letter analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of speech.

4. Inability to use different methods of word formation, incorrect use of words with diminutive meanings, inability to form words in the required form, or form adjectives from nouns.

5. Lack of formation of the grammatical structure of speech: inability to use detailed phrasal speech, inability to work with sentences; correctly construct simple sentences, see the connection of words in sentences, extend sentences with secondary and homogeneous members; They do not know how to retell a story while maintaining the meaning and content. They do not know how to write a descriptive story on their own.

Thus, the formation of grammatically correct, lexically rich and phonetically clear speech, which provides the opportunity for verbal communication and prepares for learning at school, is one of the important tasks in the general system of correctional work in preschool institutions and the family.

conclusions

Readiness for school education is formed long before entering school and is not completed in the first grade, since it includes not only a qualitative characteristic of the stock of knowledge and ideas, but also the level of development of generalizing thinking activity.

The basis of children’s speech readiness for school is oral speech, therefore the first years of a child’s life should be devoted to the practical acquisition of oral speech.

The main criteria for the formation of speech readiness:

1. Formation of the sound side of speech.

2. Full formation of phonemic processes.

3. Readiness for sound-letter analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of speech.

4.Ability to use different methods of word formation of nouns.

5. Formation of the grammatical structure of speech.

6. Mastery of coherent speech.

Children with general speech underdevelopment have difficulties in mastering these components of speech, and, accordingly, there is an insufficient level of language readiness for school.

Activation of the vocabulary of children 3-4 years old with OHP (1.2 levels of speech development) by means of sensorimotor activity.

The problem of teaching and raising children with general speech underdevelopment is very relevant in modern pedagogy. Currently, many experts note an increase in the number of children with various speech pathologies (E.F. Arkhipova, T.G. Vizel, L.G. Paramonova, etc.), while the number of preschool children with severe speech disorders has increased, including with general speech underdevelopment.

In modern pedagogical literature, general speech underdevelopment is considered as a complex speech disorder in which the formation of all components of the speech system is impaired (R.E. Levina, T.V. Tumanova, T.B. Filicheva, G.V. Chirkina, etc.). Children with OHP have a poor vocabulary, agrammatic speech, polymorphic disorder of sound pronunciation, and a disorder of phonemic perception. Existing speech disorders negatively affect the mental development of the child. These children often have speech negativism, worries about their defect, a low communicative need to communicate with others and, as a result, isolation and low speech activity.

Younger preschool age is the age of (sensory) sensory cognition of the environment.

A child’s speech is directly related to his activities, to the situations in which communication occurs. First of all, the child begins to name those objects that he most often touches with his hands; at the same time, the details of these objects stand out more often. A word - the name of an object becomes a word - a concept only after a significant number of motor conditioned connections have been developed for it. The child’s need for an object and actions with it encourage the child to name the object with a word.

Sensorimotor development is of utmost importance for the full mental development of children of early and preschool age, because This time is most favorable for the development and improvement of the activities of the senses, the accumulation of various ideas about the world around us. To teach a child to speak, it is necessary not only to train his articulatory apparatus, but also to develop the movements of his fingers.

Fine motor skills of the hands interact with such higher properties of consciousness as attention, thinking, optical-spatial perception, imagination, observation, visual and motor memory, speech.

The movements of the fingers are of great importance for the psycho-speech development of the child, since they have a great influence on the development of the child’s higher nervous activity. A child's actions with objects have a great influence on the development of brain functions. So, also V.M. Bekhterev pointed out that hand movements are closely related to speech and contribute to its development.

Historically, during the development of mankind, the movements of the fingers turned out to be closely related to speech function. The first form of communication of primitive people was gestures; The role of the hand was especially great - it made it possible, through pointing, defensive, threatening and other movements, to develop that primary language with the help of which people explained themselves. Later, gestures began to be combined with exclamations and shouts. Millennia passed before verbal speech developed, but for a long time it remained connected with gestural speech (this connection is also felt in modern humans).

The movements of people's fingers improved from generation to generation, as people performed increasingly delicate and complex work with their hands. In connection with this, there was an increase in the area of ​​the motor projection of the hand in the human brain. Thus, the development of hand and speech functions in humans proceeded in parallel.

The projection of the hand, located very close to the speech motor area, occupies about a third of the total area of ​​the motor projection. This is the so-called “Penfield homunculus”. It was the size of the projection of the hand and its proximity to the motor speech zone that led scientists to the idea that training fine movements of the fingers would have a great impact on the development of active speech.

Thus, the speech and sensorimotor development of the child is carried out in close interrelation and mutual influence on each other. Mastering sensory standards allows the child to activate his vocabulary.

Taking into account the great importance of the development of the sensory sphere in children with ODD, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of correctional and developmental work with such children, since the development of sensory perception in work is not an end in itself, but a means that helps to develop their speech activity.

All work on the development of the sensorimotor sphere in children is carried out in a complex of correctional and developmental activities. Tasks on sensorimotor are harmoniously included in the thematic cycle of classes on the formation of lexical and grammatical components of the language.

Moms, dads, grandparents about the development of auditory attention in young children.

Typical complaints with which parents come to a speech therapist:“Speaks poorly...”, “Doesn’t pronounce some sounds...”, “My mouth feels like porridge.”

At first glance, these speech difficulties seem to have little in common. However, they have the same reason and it is connected with the underdevelopment of auditory attention in the child.
By the age of three, children have a fairly large volume of auditory impressions, but they still do not know how to control their hearing: listen, compare, evaluate sounds by strength, timbre, character, rhythmic structure. The ability to listen and understand sounds - let's call it “speech hearing” - does not arise by itself even with acute natural hearing: it must be purposefully developed.
What does a developed speech hearing consist of? Here are its components.

- Pitch hearing- this is the ability to recognize sounds of different pitches and timbres and to change your voice yourself.

- Auditory attentionis the ability to determine by ear a particular sound and its direction. With the help of phonemic hearing, a child can distinguish some speech sounds from others, thanks to which words are distinguished, recognized and understood, for example: house-som-com.

- Perception of tempo and rhythm of speech- this is the ability to correctly hear and reproduce the rhythmic pattern of a word, features of its sound structure, depending on the number of syllables and the place of the stressed syllable. A child can reproduce the syllabic structure of a word without yet being able to formulate it correctly phonetically: for example, instead of the word “bricks,” he pronounces “kititi.” The rhythmic pattern of the word is preserved here.

Developed speech hearing allows you to:
*pronounce sounds correctly;
*pronounce words clearly;
* control your voice (speak louder or quieter, rhythmically, smoothly, speeding up or slowing down your speech);
*master the vocabulary and grammatical structure of the language;
*successfully master writing and reading.

I bring to your attention a step-by-step program for the development of speech hearing in a child. This “speech therapy ladder” is widely used by speech therapists and teachers, but the exercises given are easy to perform at home in order to consolidate and accelerate the development of speech hearing. Practice starting with simple exercises and moving on to more complex ones.

Step one: Let's recognize non-speech sounds.
You need to start auditory training by developing the ability to distinguish and recognize sounds that are not related to speech. You can invite your child to listen to the sounds outside the window:
What's the noise? (trees)
What's buzzing? (car)
who is screaming? (boy), etc.

Help your child identify the source of the sound.

- Game "Loud Hints".The adult hides the toy, which the child must find, focusing on the force of the drum beat (tambourine, clapping, etc.). If the baby comes close to the place where the toy is hidden, the blows are loud, if he moves away, the blows are quiet. Swap roles so that the baby can try to create sounds and navigate the volume and power of sound.

Game "Where did they call?"teaches you to determine and name the direction of sound.

Game "Find out what's ringing (rattles)?"There are several objects (or sounding toys) on the table. We invite the child to listen carefully and remember what sound each object makes. Then we cover the objects with a screen and ask them to guess which one is ringing or rattling now. This game can be varied: increase the number of objects, change them. You can also recognize household objects by sounds: the rustling of a newspaper, pouring water, a moving chair, etc.

Step two: We distinguish sounds, words and phrases by timbre, strength and pitch of the voice.

Game "Find out who called."This game is good to play when the whole family is at home. The child stands with his back to you, one of the relatives or guests calls his name. The baby recognizes the person by his voice and approaches him.

Game "Near - Far".An adult makes various sounds. The child learns to distinguish where the steamboat is humming (oooh) - far away (quietly) or close (loudly). Which pipe is playing: a big one (in a low voice) or a small one (in a high voice).
Fairy tale "Three Bears". Changing the pitch of the voice, ask the child to guess who is speaking: Mikhailo Ivanovich (low voice), Nastasya Petrovna (medium pitch voice) or Mishutka (high voice). If the child finds it difficult to name the character by name, let him show the image in the picture. When the baby learns to distinguish cues by pitch, ask him to pronounce one of the phrases (or the growl “oo-oo-oo”) for the bear, she-bear and cub in a voice that varies in pitch.

Game "Recognize by voice."In front of the child are pictures depicting domestic animals and their young - a cow and a calf, a sheep and a lamb, etc. An adult pronounces each onomatopoeia either in a low voice (cow) or in a high voice (calf). The baby, focusing on the quality and pitch of the sound at the same time, finds the corresponding picture and tries to pronounce it after you, receiving approval from you.

Finger gymnastics for children

Development of movements of the child’s fingers and hand
as one of the methods of speech development

Development of a child's hand from 2 months to 1 year

The origins of children's abilities and gifts
are at your fingertips
V. A. Sukhomlinsky

The movements of a child’s fingers and hands have a special, developmental effect. The influence of manual (manual) influences on the development of the human brain was known back in the 2nd century BC. In China, experts say that games involving hands bring the body and mind into a harmonious relationship and keep the brain systems in excellent condition. Palm exercises with stone and metal balls are common in China. Walnut palm exercises are widely used in Japan. Research by Russian physiologists confirms the connection between the hand and brain development. The works of V. M. Bekhterev proved the influence of hand manipulations on the functions of higher nervous activity and speech development. Simple hand movements help remove tension not only from the hands themselves, but also from the lips, and relieve mental fatigue. They can improve the pronunciation of sounds, and therefore develop the child’s speech. Research by M.M. Koltsova has proven that each finger has a representation in the cerebral cortex. She notes that there is every reason to consider the hand as an organ of speech - the same as an articulatory apparatus. From this point of view, the projection of the hand is another speech zone. The development of fine movements of the fingers precedes the appearance of syllable articulation. Thanks to the development of fingers, a projection of the “human body diagram” is formed in the brain, and speech reactions are directly dependent on the fitness of the fingers.

Such training should begin from a very early age, because in an infant in the very early stages of life, motor skills are the first and only aspect of development that is accessible to objective observation. Normal development of motor skills indicates normal development of the child.

Specialists from the Institute named after. G.I. Turner is recommended to begin work on the development of a motorboat from 2 months . At this age they recommend the following exercises:

Squeeze the baby's fingers as if you want to pull them out; movements should be very light and gentle;

Make circular movements with each finger separately, first in one direction and then in the other direction.
It is also very good to use mini exercise machines. As such simulators, you can use “furry” latex balls (they are sold in pet stores). Until three months, place small balls with a diameter of 3-4 cm in the baby’s palms. When a child falls asleep squeezing these balls, his hands retain their correct shape.

At 4-5 months For massage use large balls. The massage also changes: holding the child’s hands in your own, you need to hold the ball between his palms and twist it.

At 5-6 months good for strengthening palm musclesexercise "Coiffure": We lift the baby’s hands up one by one and smoothly move them forward and backward along the head. When performing this exercise, the muscles of the shoulder girdle, palms, and fingers work. At the same age, we move on to massage the hands, massaging each finger, each phalanx. We knead daily for 2-3 minutes.

At 6-7 months To the previously performed exercises, we add rolling a walnut over the child’s palm (circular movements) for 3-4 minutes.

At 8-10 months We begin to carry out active exercises for the fingers, involving more fingers in the movement, and carry out exercises with good amplitude. The movements of the fingers are well trained by well-known exercises created by the talent of our folk pedagogy: “Ladushki”, “The White-sided Magpie”, “The Horned Goat”.
At this age I recommend using it during exercises. squeaker toys.

Exercise "Duckling"
Give the child a squeaky toy. When an adult pronounces the text, the child squeezes and unclenches the duckling toy held in his hand.

You, duckling, are not food,

Better look for your mom.
For this exercise, you can use other toys (kitten, chicken), changing the text of the poem.

Exercise "Pussy"
The child first makes relaxing movements with one hand and then the other, imitating stroking movements.

Pussy, pussy, pussy! -

I called the kitten... (your child's name)

Don't rush home, wait! -

And she stroked it with her hand.

At 10-12 months Invite your child to disassemble and reassemble the pyramid without taking into account the size of the rings. At this age, start teaching your child to hold a spoon, cup, pencil. Start learning how to draw "doodles".

The main stages of development of motor skills of the hand

8-12 months: the child takes a small object with 2 fingers (the tip of the thumb and index finger) - a precise “tweezers grip”.

8-13 months: The child separates objects under visual control.

10-12 months: the child holds a toy with one hand and plays with it with the other.

10-13 months: The child repeats actions with objects after adults (pushes a toy car, puts a telephone receiver to his ear).

11-14 months: the child is trying to draw "doodles".

12-18 months: the child turns the pages of the book all at once; holds a pencil well, can hold a cup, a spoon, and unwrap an object wrapped in paper.

13-18 months: The child places the cube on the cube.

14-16 months: The child can connect objects and unscrew small screw caps under visual control.

15-18 months: the child assembles a pyramid without taking into account the rings.

17-20 months: The child places 3 cubes on top of each other. Turns the pages of the book one at a time.

17-24 months: the child grabs a moving object.

18-24 months: The child puts a small object into a small hole and tears the paper.

20-24 months: a child tries to stop a rolling ball; strings large beads onto a cord.

21-22 months: the child pours liquid from one container to another.

22-24 months: the child places 4-6 cubes on top of each other.

Development of fine motor skills in children from 1 year to 3 years

Dear readers! We continue the conversation about the development of the baby's fine motor skills.

Your baby is one year old. He's already good with his hands. Can take any toy (object) with his hand, fingers or entire palm. Likes to throw toys and bump them into things. Knows how to open and close the lids of boxes and jars.

In order for the child’s hand movements to become even more perfect, give him the opportunity to manipulate all kinds of objects, different in shape, texture of surface material (bottles, vials, pebbles, cereals, foil, polyethylene, etc.).

At 1.5 - 2.5 years old, children are given more complex tasks:
– fastening buttons;
– tying and untying knots (it’s good to use different lacing);
– pouring water from a container with a narrow neck into a container with a wide neck.

A useful and fun activity will be getting toys out of the pool with cereal. To make such a pool, you need to pour cereals (peas, beans, wheat, pearl barley) into a basin, put various toys (preferably not very large) at the bottom of the basin and invite the child to find the toys in this pool. This play exercise not only promotes the development of fine motor skills, but also massages your baby’s hand and develops his tactile sensations.

Next, dear readers, I would like to offer you finger exercises. To achieve results, you need to perform the exercises daily for 5-7 minutes. It is better to start working with exercises that contain elements of massage. I suggest the following exercises for practice.

* * *

“SHALOON”

Our Masha was cooking porridge
I cooked porridge and fed the kids.
(draw circular lines on the baby’s palm for the first two lines)
Gave to this, gave to this,
Gave to this, gave to this,
(bend your fingers for the next 2 lines while pronouncing the corresponding words)
But she didn’t give it to this one.
He played a lot of pranks
He broke his plate.
(with the words of the last line, take the little finger with the fingers of the other hand and shake it slightly)

"SQUIRREL"
(based on a folk song)

“KIDS”
One two three four five,
Let's count fingers -
Strong, friendly,

One two three four five,
They hid in the house again.
(extend all fingers one by one, starting with the little finger, then bend them in the same order)

"AUTUMN LEAVES"
One two three four five,
(bend your fingers, starting with the thumb)
We will collect leaves.
(clench and unclench your fists)
Birch leaves, rowan leaves,
(bend your fingers, starting with the thumb)
Poplar leaves, aspen leaves,
We will collect oak leaves.

“I HAVE TOYS”
I have toys:
(clap)
Steam locomotive and two horses
Silver plane
Three rockets, an all-terrain vehicle,
Dump truck,
Lifting crane.
(bend your fingers one by one)

“SHEPHERD BOY”
Oh, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo,
The shepherd lost his dudu.
(fingers of both hands are folded into a ring and brought to the mouth, imitate playing the trumpet)
And I found a pipe
I gave away the shepherdess.
(claps hands)
Come on, dear shepherd boy,
You hurry to the meadow,
Buryonka lies there
He looks at the calves.
But he doesn’t go home
Doesn't carry milk.
I need to cook porridge,
kids(you can say your baby's name)
Feed porridge.
(use the index finger of one hand in a circular motion across the palm of the other hand)

It is advisable to finish finger gymnastics with the “Shepherd boy” exercise, since it contains elements of massage.

* * *

When your baby turns 2.5-3 years old, start learning exercises without speech accompaniment: the child is explained how to perform a particular task, demonstrating the actions on himself. At this age, I recommend using figurines depicting animals, birds, and objects. All figures have a small poetic accompaniment.

* * *

"GLASSES"
(the thumb of the right and left hand together with the rest form a ring, bring the rings to the eyes)
Grandma put on glasses
And the granddaughter saw it.

"CHAIR"
(the left palm is vertically upward, a fist is placed on its lower part (with the thumb facing you); if the baby easily completes the exercise, you can change the position of the hand for a count of times)
Legs, back and seat -
Here is a chair for your surprise.

"TABLE"
(left hand in a fist, the palm is placed on top of the fist; if the child easily performs this exercise, you can change the position of the hands: right hand in the fist, left palm on top of the fist)
The table has 4 legs
The top is like a palm-shaped lid.

"BOAT"
(both palms are placed on the edge, the thumbs are pressed to the palms like a ladle)
The boat floats on the river,
Leaving rings on the water.

“STEAMBOAT”
(both palms are placed on the edge, the little fingers are pressed (like a ladle), and the thumbs are raised up)
The steamboat floats along the river
And it puffs like a stove.

"GOAT"
(the inner side of the palm is lowered down, the index finger and little finger are put forward, the middle finger and ring finger are pressed to the palm and covered by the thumb)
The goat has horns sticking out,
She might gore.

"BUG"
(fingers clenched into a fist, index finger and little finger spread apart, child moves them)
The beetle is flying, the beetle is buzzing
And he moves his mustache.

* * *

By performing various exercises with his fingers, the child achieves good development of fine motor skills of the hands, which not only has a beneficial effect on the development of speech (since this inductively excites the speech centers of the brain), but also prepares the child for drawing, and subsequently for writing. The hands acquire good mobility and flexibility, and the stiffness of movements disappears.
Dear parents, grandparents! I wish you good luck and patience in working with your baby.

The topic of the next article is Development of fine motor skills in children 3 - 5 years old

Using these recipes in lessons with your child on the development of fine motor skills, you can teach him to reduce his arm span when drawing, because a 2-4 year old child does not track the boundaries of a sheet very well. Using copybooks, you will teach your child to draw within the boundaries of a sheet or a specific image. With their help, the child will master many simple, but very technical visual elements: circles, rectangles, various strokes, large dots, checkmarks, etc. All of them are presented in feasible, exciting tasks and gradually increase the load on the fingers; as the working surface decreases, the visual elements decrease, which improves the coordination of the baby’s hand and his orientation in space.

Development of fine motor skills in children from 3 to 5 years old

Dear readers! In this article I want to bring to your attention exercises for the development of fine motor skills of children 3-5 years old.

At this age, you also continue to do finger exercises daily, but increase the time to 10 minutes. You start the classes with a massage, but the children do the massage themselves - the child can handle it quite well. For self-massage, I recommend doing the following exercises...

"GNOMES-LAUNDERWOKERS"
We lived in a house

Little gnomes:
Currents, Peaks, Faces,
Chicky, Mickey.
(with the right hand, bend the fingers on the left hand, starting with the thumb)
One two three four five,
(with the right hand they straighten the fingers on the left hand, starting with the thumb)
The gnomes began to wash
(rubbing fists together)
Toki - shirts,
Peaks - handkerchiefs,
Faces - pants,
Chicky socks,
(bend the fingers on the left hand again, starting with the thumb)
Mickey was smart
He brought water to everyone.

"ASSISTANTS"
One two three four
(children clench and unclench their fists)
We washed the dishes.
(rubbing one palm against the other)
Teapot, cup, ladle, spoon
And a big ladle.
(bend your fingers, starting with the thumb)
We washed the dishes
(rubs one palm against the other again)
We just broke the cup,
(bend your fingers, starting with the little finger)
The ladle also fell apart,
The teapot's nose is broken,
We broke the spoon a little.
This is how we helped mom.
(clench and unclench fists)

"COOK COMPOTE"
We will cook compote,
You need a lot of fruit. Here:
(the left palm is held with a “bucket”, and the index finger of the right hand is “interfering”
Let's chop apples
We will chop the pear.
Squeeze the lemon juice
(bend fingers one at a time, starting with the thumb)
We'll put in some drainage and sand.
We cook, we cook compote.
Let's treat honest people.
(again “cook” and “stir”)

After the child’s hands have warmed up, you can begin to complete the following tasks for the development of fine motor skills. These could again be finger exercises.

"HELLO"
Hello, golden sun!
Hello, blue sky!
Hello, free breeze!
Hello, little oak tree!
We live in the same region -
I greet you all!
(with the fingers of the right hand, one by one, “hello” the fingers of the left hand, tapping each other with the tips)

"PINKY FINGER"
Little pinky
Crying, crying, crying.
Nameless will not understand:
What does all of this mean?
The middle finger is very important
Doesn't want to listen.
The index asked:
- Maybe you want to eat?
And the big one runs for rice,
Carrying a spoon for rice
He says: - There is no need to cry,
Come on, eat a little!
(hands clenched into fists, alternately extend fingers, starting with the little finger; from the last line, touch each other with the thumb and little finger)

"FLOWER"
Swell quickly, bud,
Bloom a flower - peony!
(close the pads of the fingers of both hands; the palms are slightly rounded - you get a “bud”; the lower parts of the palms are pressed against each other, and the fingers are spread wide in a circle and bent a little - you get a large open “flower”)

"BUTTERFLY"
(folk nursery rhyme)
Box butterfly,
Fly under the cloud.
Your kids are there
On a birch branch.
(cross the wrists of both hands and press the backs of the palms against each other, fingers straight - the “butterfly” sits; palms are straight and tense, do not bend the fingers; with a light but sharp movement of the hands at the wrists, imitate the flight of a butterfly)

"BIRDS"
The birds flew in
They flapped their wings.
We sat down. We sat.
And then they flew on.
(move up and down with the fingers of both hands)

"CHICKIES IN THE NEST"
The mother bird flew away
Kids should look for bugs.
Baby birds are waiting
Mom's gifts.
(clasp all the fingers of your right hand with your left palm - you get a “nest”; moving the fingers of your right hand creates the impression of living chicks in a nest)

"HOOOKS"
Friends, hold on tight,
We can't loosen their hooks.
(clasp the little fingers of both hands together like two hooks so that it is difficult to unhook them; by analogy, make figures with other fingers)

"PALM-FIST"
Want? Do this too:
Either a palm, or a fist.
(put your hands on the table, palms pressed to the table; simultaneously clench two fists (position “fist” - “fist”); unclench the fingers of one hand and press it to the table (position “hand” - “fist”); to make it more difficult, increase the tempo movement)

"CROSS AND TOE"
On my table
Crosses and toes,
Wanted by Ilya Pyatkov
Make them from fingers
And he has figurines
They come out easily.
If you want, I'll teach you
Girls and boys
Making them from fingers?
(put hands with straight fingers on the table: “crosses” - hook the ring finger onto the little finger (or middle finger onto the index finger); hold this position for as long as possible; “toes” - connect the thumb with the index finger with the pads, then with the middle finger, with the ring fingers and little finger; simultaneously hold the crosses and toes created from the fingers.

A variety of subject-based activities, which also contribute to the development of fine motor skills, have also proven themselves very well. To get the greatest effect, I recommend that you, dear readers, combine finger exercises with the following activities during classes:
– fastening and unfastening buttons (a special set for classes can be bought in the store);
– all kinds of lacing;
– stringing rings onto braid;
– games with mosaics;
– sorting the mosaic into cells;
– games with a constructor;
– sorting through cereals and grains (for example, separating beans from peas).

Development of graphic skills in children 5-6 years old

Dear mothers and fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers!
Your child is 5 years old. He will soon go to school. In order to continue preparing his hand for writing, I offer tasks to develop graphic skills. But before you start classes, read the guidelines:

In the first lesson, teach your child how to navigate in a notebook (notebook with a large square), the child should show the upper right and lower right corners, the upper left and lower left corners, the middle of the notebook with a large square;

A felt-tip pen can be used only in the first lessons, and then only a pen;

The distance between lines when writing should be equal to two cells, and between elements it can be different;

The number of lines to fill depends on the capabilities of the children;

The sample should be given in notebooks and explained in detail;

First, the child must reproduce the drawing on the table with his finger, and then use the back end of the pen to trace the sample in the notebook.

These tasks will help teach your child:

Find your bearings in a large squared notebook;

Draw straight lines, squares with and without dots;

Draw oblique lines with and without dots, hatch;

Draw arcs, ovals with and without points.

Below is practical material on teaching children graphic skills and visual dictations.

FIRST STAGE

First stage

Children in class must learn how to use a felt-tip pen.

1. Draw lines along the points from top to bottom.

Draw lines from one reference point to another, from top to bottom.

Draw vertical lines in one cell according to the model yourself.

2. Draw lines along the points from left to right in one cell, skipping two cells.

Draw horizontal lines from one point to another.

Draw lines independently from left to right in one cell according to the pattern ( number of lines is not limited).

3. Draw corners according to the given points, passing two cells between the corners.

Draw a corner using the anchor points.

Draw a corner yourself according to the sample.

4. Draw a border consisting of vertical and horizontal lines without lifting the felt-tip pen from the sheet.

5. Draw vertical sticks in two cells.

Draw horizontal lines in two cells.

Draw vertical and horizontal lines according to the sample.

6. Draw squares point by point, skipping two cells.

Draw the squares yourself.

7. Connect the squares without lifting the felt-tip pen from the drawing.

Second stage

Third stage

Visual dictations

SECOND PHASE

Moms and dads! Grandmothers, grandfathers!
In this article I will continue to introduce you to exercises for developing graphic skills in children 5-6 years old. I bring to your attention the exercises of the second stage. The tasks will help children master writing oblique lines and shading figures with oblique lines. At the second stage, do not use a large-checked notebook; take a regular school notebook with a checkered pattern.

First stage

Second stage

THIRD STAGE

We continue our acquaintance with exercises that help develop the graphic skills of five- and six-year-old children. At the third stage, the child will learn to draw circles, semi-ovals, ovals, and loops. Just like in the second stage, a regular checkered notebook is used.

Speech therapy homework “Don’t get bored” (for the summer) for children of senior preschool age

Since all children have to study, the success of his education depends on the quality of the child’s speech, therefore the main task of educators, speech therapists and parents in preparing children for school is speech development.

Dear parents, we present to your attention games and tasks that will allow your child to repeat the knowledge accumulated during the school year during the summer period. All games are thematically aimed at summer activities, therefore, you can play some of them outdoors, in the yard, and in the country.

Complete tasks in a good mood;

Task completion time 15-20 minutes 2-3 times a week;

If, when pronouncing the answer to your question, the child makes mistakes in sound pronunciation or incorrectly coordinates the words in a sentence, then be sure to correct it by naming the word or the entire sentence correctly (make sure that the child repeats the correct answer after you!)

Praise your child every time he completes a task successfully.

Topic: "Mushrooms"

Name one - many

One porcini mushroom – many porcini mushrooms;

one red fox - many......

Reading, answering questions, retelling.

WHERE DOES BERRY Grow?

Sour cranberries grow in a swamp. You can also collect it in the spring, when the snow melts. Anyone who has not seen how a cranberry grows can walk along it and not see it. Blueberries grow - you see them: next to the leaf of the berry. And there are so many of them that the place turns blue. Blueberries grow in bushes. In remote places there is also a stone fruit - a red berry with a tassel, a sour berry. Our only berry, the cranberry, is invisible from above.

Questions:

How do cranberries grow?

What other berries grow in the forest?

How do they grow?

Which berry is invisible from above?

Do you think this is difficult for a small child? Not at all! Give him the opportunity to discover the difference between vowels and consonants himself. Here's how to do it. Select cards with patterns of words discussed in previous lessons: ball, house, cheese, whale, onion, forest. You see that these words contain all the vowel sounds of our language - a, o, s, i, u, e. Place a card with the word “ball” in front of your child and ask him a riddle: “This word has one sound - unusual. You can shout this sound very loudly, you can sing it, when you pronounce it, nothing in your mouth interferes with you - neither lips, nor teeth, nor tongue. Guess what sound that is." The child easily guesses - “a”. Check with him to see if this is true. Don’t be embarrassed, let the children shout, listen to this sound, and see how easily it is pronounced. In the same way, together, find the sounds “o” (house), “y” (cheese), “i” (whale), “u” (onion), “e” (forest). Only after this does the adult combine all these sounds into one group and say that they are called vowels, in contrast to consonants, which cannot be shouted like vowel sounds. We will now denote vowel sounds with red chips. Sometimes, in order to make it easier for a child to distinguish between vowels and consonants, we tell him that a consonant sound cannot be drawn out and cannot be sung. By giving such an explanation, we actually only confuse the child: he begins to consider the sounds “r”, “m”, “l” as vowels, that is, all those consonants that can be drawn out and sung for a long time. But if we draw the child’s attention to another feature of consonant sounds: when pronouncing them, something always interferes with us - either lips, or tongue, then the child will never make a mistake.

After three-sound words have been analyzed, you can introduce something new - teach them to distinguish between vowels and consonants. Do you think this is difficult for a small child? Not at all! Give him the opportunity to discover the difference between vowels and consonants himself. Here's how to do it. Select cards with patterns of words discussed in previous lessons: ball, house, cheese, whale, onion, forest. You see that these words contain all the vowel sounds of our language - a, o, s, i, u, e. Place a card with the word “ball” in front of your child and ask him a riddle: “This word has one sound - unusual.

Only after this does the adult combine all these sounds into one group and say that they are called vowels, in contrast to consonants, which cannot be shouted like vowel sounds. We will now denote vowel sounds with red chips.

By giving such an explanation, we actually only confuse the child: he begins to consider the sounds “r”, “m”, “l” as vowels, that is, all those consonants that can be drawn out and sung for a long time. But if we draw the child’s attention to another feature of consonant sounds: when pronouncing them, something always interferes with us - either lips, or tongue, then the child will never make a mistake. Tell him: “Indeed, the sound “m” can be drawn out for a long time and you can even hum a song, but look how tightly your mouth is closed when you pronounce this sound, your lips prevent it from coming out of your mouth.” Now the difference between vowels and consonants has been established. Such an unlearned and seemingly independently made definition of vowels and consonants is firmly assimilated by children; they easily operate with their knowledge. And immediately draw the child’s attention to the fact that the consonant sounds in the word are pronounced differently - sometimes softly, sometimes hard. If you correctly taught the child to name the sounds in words when you conducted a sound analysis, if the child named the consonant sound as it is actually heard in the word, then distinguishing consonants into hard and soft will not cause any difficulties. Let's show how this can be done. Invite your child to analyze the word "Nina". After the word has been sorted out and the sound diagram is filled with chips, you ask the child the question: “What vowel sounds are there in this word?” “Ah,” the child answers, pointing to the red chips on the diagram. “What are the consonant sounds in this word?” - “N and n.” - "Very good! Tell me, do you think these sounds are similar or not? Listen to how I pronounce them: “nn-nn-nn”, “n-n-n.” - “Similar.” - “But I pronounce one sound softly, listen: n-nn-nn, and the other: n- n-n - how do I pronounce it? Usually the child answers: “You pronounce it roughly.” You confirm: “Yes, I pronounce it firmly: n-n-n, but I pronounce the sound n"-n"-n" softly, right? Those consonant sounds that we pronounce firmly are called hard consonants, and we will denote them with blue chips, and those consonants that we pronounce softly are called soft consonants, and we will denote them with green chips. Let's remove the white chips from the diagram and put these in. What sound do you represent with the blue chip?” - “Sound n.” - “That's right, put in a chip. And with a green chip, what sound in this word will we denote?” - “Sound”. This is how you introduced your child to such complex concepts as vowels, hard and soft consonants. In further lessons, you will no longer need white chips: when conducting a sound analysis of a word, the child should now characterize each sound as a vowel or consonant and use the corresponding chips.
Good luck!

It is known that the respiratory organs, along with the main biological function of gas exchange, also perform voice-forming and articulatory functions. The development of speech breathing in a child in ontogenesis occurs simultaneously with the development of speech and is completed by approximately 10 years. “Speech breathing is a system of voluntary psychomotor reactions closely related to the production of oral speech.”

The formation of speech breathing involves, among other things, the production of an air stream. The production of an air stream is considered one of the necessary and significant conditions for producing sounds. Work on the education of an air stream begins at the preparatory stage of the formation of correct sound pronunciation, along with the development of phonemic hearing and articulatory motor skills.

When working with such situations, you can use special techniques, but I will tell you about those techniques for developing speech breathing that any mother can use, introducing them into the baby’s daily life.Conventionally, techniques for developing correct speech breathing can be divided into three subgroups:

1. Exercises.

Close your right nostril with the finger of your right hand - inhale deeply, exhale through your mouth, slowly and smoothly. We repeat everything on the left side. Repeat the exercise 5-10 times

The child lies on his back on the mat, the mother places a toy (for example, a rubber duck) on his tummy. Now the duck will swim on the waves: inhale - the tummy inflates, smoothly exhale - the tummy retracts.

2. Games.

• Rolling small cars, a felt-tip pen, a ball, or, in a word, any rolling object, across the table using an exhaled stream of air.
• Blow cut out butterflies, cotton balls (imagining that they are lumps of snow), snowflakes, confetti, and fluff from your palm or mother’s palm.
• Bubble! We need to inflate the biggest one! You can compete with your mother or friend.
• Make paper boats, pour water into a large plate, launch the boats into the water and take on the role of a “fair wind.” Whose boat will get to the shore faster?!
• Make a goal from available material (a box, a construction set), take a light tennis ball and play football with your child. You need to blow on the ball and drive it into the goal.

3. Fun.

Teach your child to drink his daily drinks through straws.

• But that's not all: you can pour plain water into a glass and create a storm in the glass, exhaling air through a straw. Children really like this game. You can compete to see who has the strongest storm in their glass.
• Blowing out a candle. Be careful when performing this exercise! You can blow out a candle from different distances, you can tilt the flame with an air stream. The most interesting thing is that children, when they see that a candle is lit, calm down; you can start speaking in a whisper, creating a mysterious atmosphere (it’s very effective to do this when it gets dark).
• Remember harmonicas, pipes, blown reeds, whistles from folk crafts - children are delighted with them. Don't forget about blowing up balloons.

It can be difficult, and sometimes even uninteresting, for a small child to perform exercises just for demonstration. Therefore, use gaming techniques, come up with fairy tales, for example these:

“Ventilating the cave”

The tongue lives in a cave. Like any room, it must be ventilated often, because the air to breathe must be clean! There are several ways to ventilate:

- inhale air through your nose and exhale slowly through your wide open mouth (and so on at least 5 times);

- inhale through the mouth and exhale slowly through an open mouth (at least 5 times);

- inhale and exhale through the nose (at least 5 times);

- inhale through your nose, exhale through your mouth (at least 5 times).

"Snowstorm"

An adult ties pieces of cotton wool onto strings and fastens the free ends of the threads onto his fingers, thus making five strings with cotton balls at the ends. The hand is held at the level of the child’s face at a distance of 20–30 centimeters. The baby blows on the balls, they spin and deviate. The more these impromptu snowflakes spin, the better.

"Wind"

This is done in the same way as the previous exercise, but instead of threads with cotton wool, a sheet of paper is used, cut with a fringe at the bottom (remember, such paper was once attached to the windows to repel flies?). The child blows on the fringe, it deviates. The more horizontal the strips of paper take, the better.

"Ball"

Tongue's favorite toy is a ball. It's so big and round! He's so much fun to play with! (The child “puffs up” his cheeks as much as possible. Make sure that both cheeks puff out evenly!)

“The ball deflated!”

After prolonged games, the tongue's ball loses its roundness: air comes out of it. (The child first strongly inflates his cheeks, and then slowly exhales air through his rounded and elongated lips.)

"Pump"

The ball has to be inflated using a pump. (The child’s hands perform the appropriate movements. At the same time, he himself pronounces the sound “s-s-s-..." often and abruptly: the lips are stretched in a smile, the teeth are almost clenched, and the tip of the tongue rests against the base of the lower front teeth. The air comes out of the mouth strongly pushes).

"The tongue plays football."

Tongue loves to play football. He especially likes scoring goals from the penalty spot. (Place two cubes on the side of the table opposite from the child. This is an improvised goal. Place a piece of cotton wool on the table in front of the child. The baby “scores goals” by blowing from a wide tongue inserted between his lips onto a cotton swab, trying to “bring” it to the goal and get into them. Make sure that your cheeks do not swell and the air flows down the middle of your tongue.)

When performing this exercise, you need to make sure that the child does not accidentally inhale the cotton wool and choke.

"The tongue plays the pipe"

Tongue also knows how to play the pipe. The melody is almost inaudible, but a strong stream of air is felt, which escapes from the hole of the pipe. (The child rolls a tube from his tongue and blows into it. The child checks the presence of a stream of air on his palm).

"Block and Key"

Does your child know the fairy tale “Three Fat Men”? If so, then he probably remembers how the girl gymnast Suok played a wonderful melody on the key. The child tries to repeat this. (An adult shows how to whistle into a hollow key).

If you don’t have a key at hand, you can use a clean, empty bottle (pharmacy or perfume) with a narrow neck. When working with glass vials, you must be extremely careful: the edges of the bubble should not be chipped or sharp. And one more thing: watch carefully so that the child does not accidentally break the bottle and get hurt.

As breathing exercises, you can also use playing children's musical wind instruments: pipe, harmonica, bugle, trumpet. And also inflating balloons, rubber toys, balls.

All of the above breathing exercises should only be performed in the presence of adults! Remember that when doing exercises, your child may become dizzy, so carefully monitor his condition, and stop the activity at the slightest sign of fatigue.

Rules for performing exercises for the development of speech breathingWhen performing tasks to develop speech breathing, you need to follow some rules:

1) Do the exercises daily, only then will your exercises be of any use.

2) Gradually increase the time of classes from 1-2 minutes to 5-10 minutes.

3) It is better to do exercises in the fresh air (especially in summer). If this is not possible, take care to ventilate the room.

4) When completing tasks, supervise your child:

• Exhalation should be done through the mouth, inhalation through the nose. The child should not raise his shoulders or puff out his cheeks.
• The exhalation should be long and smooth,
• It’s better to round/stretch your lips a little.

5. Breathing exercises are very tiring and can even cause dizziness, so let the child rest, do not overload him, alternate with other activities.

I wish you and your children good luck in establishing proper speech breathing.

Remember that this is an important component of a good speech!

Consultation for parents

“What is OHP?”

Very often, many parents notice only a violation of sound pronunciation in their children and do not see the need to transfer their child to a specialized speech therapy group. Often, this is only the tip of the iceberg, and correction of a speech defect is not possible in full in the general education group of a kindergarten.

In our kindergarten there are two speech therapy groups, one of them is for children with a speech therapy certificate ONR. I will dwell on this speech disorder in more detail.

What is general speech underdevelopment (GSD)?

Currently, preschoolers with speech impairments constitute perhaps the largest group of children with developmental disorders. Of these, more than half of the children have a speech therapy report of ONR - general speech underdevelopment.

The term (ONR) refers to various complex speech disorders in which children have impaired formation of all components of the speech system related to its sound and semantic side with normal hearing and intelligence. The following signs are characteristic of the speech of such children:

Later onset of speech (first words appear at 3-4, and sometimes at 5 years);

Expressive speech lags behind impressive speech (the child understands speech addressed to him, but cannot voice his thoughts);

Children incorrectly coordinate different parts of speech with each other, do not use prepositions in speech, and have difficulty forming words;

Children with OHP have impaired pronunciation of several or all groups of sounds;

The speech of children with general speech underdevelopment is difficult to understand.

There are four levels of OHP

Level 1 - children completely lack speech, their vocabulary consists of “babbling” words, onomatopoeia, facial expressions and gestures;

Level 2 - distorted, but quite understandable, commonly used words are added to the “babbling” expressions. At the same time, children's syllable structure is noticeably impaired, and their pronunciation capabilities lag behind the age norm;

Level 3 - developed speech already appears, the child can pronounce entire phrases, but there are violations of a phonetic-phonemic and lexical-grammatical nature. Free communication with others is difficult; children can only make contact in the presence of close people who provide explanations for their speech;

Level 4 - there are no violations of sound pronunciation, but children have unclear diction and often confuse syllables and sounds. At first glance, these shortcomings seem insignificant, but in the end they complicate the child’s process of learning to read and write.

Causes of general speech underdevelopment.

Among the causes of general speech underdevelopment, there are various factors of both biological and social nature. Biological factors include: infections or intoxication of the mother during pregnancy, incompatibility of the blood of the mother and fetus by Rh factor or group affiliation, damage to the fetus during pregnancy (caused by infection, intoxication, oxygen starvation), postpartum diseases of the central nervous system and brain injuries in the first years child's life.

At the same time, ONR may be due to unfavorable conditions of upbringing and training, and may be associated with insufficient communication with adults during periods of active speech development. In many cases, OHP is a consequence of the complex influence of various factors, for example, hereditary predisposition, organic failure of the central nervous system (sometimes mild), and an unfavorable social environment.

Speech correction in children with ODD.

General speech underdevelopment refers to severe speech disorders. And it is impossible to correct this violation on your own. For such children, special speech therapy groups are created, in which children are enrolled for two years. Corrective work is carried out comprehensively. Depending on the period of study, the teacher-speech therapist conducts daily group or subgroup classes on the formation of lexical and grammatical structure, the formation of sound pronunciation and preparation for learning to read and write, as well as the development of coherent speech. Three times a week, individual lessons are conducted with each child to correct sound pronunciation.

In the evening, teachers carry out correctional work on the instructions of the speech therapist, in order to consolidate new knowledge, skills and abilities.

If necessary, observation is carried out by a neurologist, since in some children drug treatment is used to activate the speech areas of the brain and improve blood supply.

Once a week, the speech therapist teacher assigns homework to review the material covered.

This structure of correctional work allows for maximum correction of speech disorders and the formation of a full-fledged harmonious personality.

Speech readiness of the child for school

(speech by speech therapist)

The most significant thing for a 7-year-old child is the transition to a new social status: a preschooler becomes a schoolchild. The transition from play activities to educational activities significantly influences the child’s motives and behavior. The quality of educational activities will depend on the extent to which the following prerequisites were formed in the preschool period:

 good physical development of the child;

 developed physical hearing;

 developed fine motor skills of the fingers, general motor skills;

 normal functioning of the central nervous system;

 possession of knowledge and ideas about the world around us (space, time, counting operations);

 voluntary attention, indirect memorization, ability to listen to the teacher;

 cognitive activity, desire to learn, interest in knowledge, curiosity;

 communicative activity, readiness to work together with other children, cooperation, mutual assistance.

On the basis of these prerequisites, at primary school age, new qualities necessary for learning begin to form. Readiness for school education is formed long before entering school and is not completed in the first grade, since it includes not only a qualitative characteristic of the stock of knowledge and ideas, but also the level of development of generalizing thinking activity.

Schooling places new demands on the child’s speech, attention, and memory. Psychological readiness for learning plays a significant role, i.e. his awareness of the social significance of his new activity.

Special criteria for readiness for schooling are applied to a child’s acquisition of his native language as a means of communication. Let's list them.

1. Formation of the sound side of speech. The child must have correct, clear sound pronunciation of sounds of all phonetic groups.

2. Full development of phonemic processes, the ability to hear and distinguish, differentiate phonemes (sounds) of the native language.

3. Readiness for sound-letter analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of speech: the ability to isolate the initial vowel sound from the composition of the word; analysis of vowels from three sounds type aui ; analysis of reverse syllable vowel - consonant type up ; hear and highlight the first and last consonant sound in a word, etc. Children must know and correctly use the terms “sound”, “syllable”, “word”, “sentence”, sounds vowel, consonant, voiced, voiceless, hard, soft. The ability to work with a word diagram, split alphabet, and syllable reading skills are assessed.

4. The ability to use different methods of word formation, to correctly use words with a diminutive meaning, the ability to form words in the required form, to highlight sound and semantic differences between words: fur, fur; form adjectives from nouns.

5. Formation of the grammatical structure of speech: the ability to use detailed phrasal speech, the ability to work with sentences; correctly construct simple sentences, see the connection of words in sentences, extend sentences with secondary and homogeneous members; work with a deformed sentence, independently find errors and eliminate them; make sentences based on supporting words and pictures. Be able to retell a story while maintaining the meaning and content. Compose your own descriptive story.

The presence of even slight deviations in phonemic and lexico-grammatical development among first-graders leads to serious problems in mastering general education school programs.

The formation of grammatically correct, lexically rich and phonetically clear speech, which enables verbal communication and prepares for learning at school, is one of the important tasks in the overall system of work on educating a child in preschool institutions and the family. A child with well-developed speech easily communicates with others, can clearly express his thoughts and desires, ask questions, and agree with peers about playing together. Conversely, a child’s slurred speech complicates his relationships with people and often leaves an imprint on his character. By the age of 6-7 years, children with speech pathology begin to realize their speech defects, experience them painfully, and become silent, shy, and irritable.

To develop full-fledged speech, you need to eliminate everything that interferes with the child’s free communication with the team. After all, in the family the baby is understood perfectly and he does not experience any particular difficulties if his speech is imperfect. However, gradually the child’s circle of connections with the outside world expands; and it is very important that his speech is well understood by both peers and adults. The question arises even more acutely about the importance of phonetically correct speech when entering school, when a child needs to answer and ask questions in the presence of the whole class, read aloud (speech deficiencies are revealed very quickly). Correct pronunciation of sounds and words becomes especially necessary when mastering literacy. Younger schoolchildren write predominantly the way they speak, therefore, among underachieving primary schoolchildren (primarily in their native language and reading), there is a large percentage of children with phonetic defects. This is one of the causes of dysgraphia (writing impairment) and dyslexia (reading impairment).

Schoolchildren whose speech development disorders relate only to defects in the pronunciation of one or several sounds, as a rule, study well. Such speech defects usually do not negatively affect the learning of the school curriculum. Children correctly correlate sounds and letters and do not make mistakes in written work due to deficiencies in sound pronunciation. Among these students there are practically no underachievers.

Schoolchildren with an unformed sound side of speech (pronunciation, phonemic processes), as a rule, replace and mix phonemes that are similar in sound or articulation (hissing - whistling; voiced - deaf; hard - soft, r - l). They experience difficulties in perceiving close sounds by ear and do not take into account the distinctive meaning of these sounds in words (barrel - kidney). This level of underdevelopment of the sound side of speech prevents mastering the skills of analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of a word and causes the appearance of a secondary defect (dyslexia and dysgraphia as specific disorders in reading and writing).

In schoolchildren, along with disturbances in the pronunciation of sounds, underdevelopment of phonemic processes and lexico-grammatical means of the language (general underdevelopment of speech) may be observed. They experience great difficulties in reading and writing, leading to persistent failure in their native language and other subjects.
In such children, the pronunciation of sounds is often blurred and indistinct, they have a pronounced deficiency of phonemic processes, their vocabulary is limited, and the grammatical design of oral utterances is replete with specific errors; An independent statement within the framework of everyday topics is characterized by fragmentation, poverty, and semantic incompleteness. Deviations in the development of oral speech create serious obstacles in learning to write correctly and read correctly. The written work of these children is full of a variety of specific, spelling and syntactic errors.

The main task of parents ispay attention in timefor various violations of your child’s oral speech in order to begin speech therapy work with him before school, to prevent communication difficulties in a team and poor performance in secondary school. The sooner the correction is started, the better the result.

Literacy training
in the preparatory school group

The correctional education system includes special exercises aimed at preparing children for learning to read and write and mastering its elements. Children are taught attention to the sound side of speech, the ability not only to pronounce, but also to distinguish all the phonemes of their native language.

Literacy teaching is carried out on the basis of only correctly pronounced sounds in the following directions.

• Preparation for analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of a word.
• Formation of fluent syllable reading skills.

Initially, children are taught to highlight the initial stressed vowel in words like willow, Anya, duck. Children then memorize and analyze rows of vowels like aui , determining how many sounds, which sound is first, second, third. Next, they teach you to highlight the first and last consonant in a word.(spider, cat, poppy) , as well as carry out analysis and synthesis of combinations like ap, uk, from (how many sounds, what sound is first, second), after which the syllabic vowel is determined from the position after the consonant(bull, cat, poppy) . All these exercises prepare children to master the analysis and synthesis of direct syllables and monosyllabic words, at the same time they become familiar with the terms “sound”, “vowel”, “consonant”.

In subsequent classes, they learn to divide words into syllables, draw up a diagram of one- and two-syllable words, conduct sound-syllable analysis and learn the qualitative characteristics of sounds - hard and soft, and the syllabic role of the vowel sound.

By making different types of diagrams, children select words for them. Gradually, the tasks become more complicated: children must select the appropriate words for a given model (the first sound is a voiceless consonant, the second is a vowel, the third is a voiced consonant, the fourth is a vowel, for example, goats ). At the same time, children are introduced to a graphic representation of vowels and then consonants. First, the letters fit into the diagram of the word, then the children read syllables and words, putting them together from the letters of the split alphabet. Word transformation options are offered(varnish - cancer - poppy).

Attention is drawn to conscious reading of words. As they master the syllabic reading of words of varying complexity (based on their analysis), children are taught to break sentences into words and read them. They learn the difference between a word and a sentence, observing pauses between words, the rules of capitalizing letters, writing words separately, and putting a period at the end of a sentence.

From reading sentences, children move on to meaningful fluent reading of light texts, give meaningful answers to the text they read, learn to pose questions and retell what they read.

Learning to read and write is a crucial period in a child’s life. And how well it will go depends largely on you, your patience, goodwill, and affection. Show a genuine interest in everything related to learning. Under no circumstances should you allow rude “pressure,” tactlessness, or other negative aspects when communicating with a future student. Let your child believe in his own strength. Let him feel his success from lesson to lesson, make some small “discoveries” for himself and go to each lesson with joy. Let him think, show initiative, creativity; try to follow the child’s desires and do not suppress him with your learning

Speech therapist advice

1. Do not try to speed up the child’s natural speech development. Don't overload him with speech activities. Games, exercises, speech material must be age appropriate.

2. When communicating with a child, watch your speech. Talk to him slowly. Pronounce sounds and words clearly and clearly; be sure to explain any incomprehensible words or phrases found in the text.

3. Do not imitate children's speech, do not abuse diminutive suffixes - all this inhibits speech development.

4. Correct the child’s speech deficiencies in a timely manner, trying to point out inaccuracies and errors found in his speech, be careful, do not laugh at the baby under any circumstances, the best thing is to tactfully correct this or that word if the child is in a hurry to express his thoughts or speaks quietly , remind him: “You need to speak clearly, clearly, and slowly.”

5. Don’t leave your child’s questions unanswered. And don’t forget to check: “Does he understand your answer?” If you have a tape recorder in the house, record your child's speech. Such recordings will not only help in working on speech, but over time will be a good gift for a son or daughter.

Speech readiness of children for school

In preschool childhood, the process of mastering speech is basically completed:
- by the age of 7, language becomes the child’s means of communication and thinking, as well as
subject of conscious study, since in preparation for school
learning to read and write begins;

The sound side of speech develops. Younger preschoolers begin
be aware of the peculiarities of their pronunciation, but they still retain previous ways of perceiving sounds, thanks to which they recognize incorrectly pronounced children's words. By the end of preschool age, the process of phonemic development is completed;
- the grammatical structure of speech develops. Children assimilate subtle
patterns of morphological and syntactic order. Assimilation
grammatical forms of the language and acquisition of a larger active vocabulary
allow them to move on to concrete speech at the end of preschool age.
Studies have shown that children 6–7 years old
master all forms of oral speech inherent in adults. They develop detailed messages - monologues, stories; in communication with peers, dialogical speech develops, including instructions, evaluation, and coordination of play activities.

Schooling places new demands on the child for his speech, attention, and memory. A significant role is played by psychological readiness for learning, that is, his awareness of the social significance of his new activity.

Special criteria for readiness for schooling apply to a child’s mastery of his native language as a means of communication:

1. Formation of the sound side of speech. The child must have correct, clear sound pronunciation of sounds of all phonetic groups.

2. Formation of phonemic processes, the ability to hear and distinguish, differentiate phonemes (sounds) of the native language.

3. Readiness for sound-letter analysis and synthesis of the sound composition of speech: the ability to isolate the initial vowel sound from the composition of the word; analysis of vowels from three sounds like “aui”; analysis of syllables like “op”; hear and identify the first and last consonant sound in a word, etc. Children must know and correctly use the terms “sound”, “syllable”, “word”, “sentence”, “vowel”, “consonant”, “voiced”, “deaf”, “hard”, “soft”. The ability to work with a word diagram, split alphabet, and syllable reading skills are assessed.

4. The ability to use different methods of word formation, correctly use words with a diminutive meaning, the ability to form words in the required form, highlight sound and semantic differences between words; form adjectives from nouns.

5. Formation of the grammatical structure of speech: the ability to use detailed phrasal speech, the ability to work with sentences, correctly construct simple sentences, see the connection of words in sentences, extend sentences with secondary and homogeneous members; work with a deformed sentence, independently find errors and eliminate them; make sentences using reference words and pictures; master the retelling of the story, preserving the meaning and content; compose your own story-description.

The presence of even slight deviations in phonemic and lexico-grammatical development among first-graders leads to serious problems in mastering general education school programs.

To prevent this you need to:

· pay attention to various oral speech disorders in a timely manner

· start speech therapy work with him before school (the sooner the better)

· Work with the child daily (follow the recommendations of the speech therapist:
- on the formation of sound pronunciation,
- on the development of phonemic hearing,
- on the development of lexical and grammatical categories, i.e. on the development of the dictionary.

· Classes should not be long (within 20 minutes), but daily.

For the best results in the development of all aspects of speech, we recommend playing the games that you will find in the collection of methodological recommendations for parents “Let's play with your child at home” in the “Games for speech development” section

The sooner the work begins and the more often it is carried out, the better the result will be.

Speech readiness for school is inextricably linked with psychological readiness.

What does it mean for a child to be psychologically ready for school? What does it consist of?

Psychological readiness of the child for school comprises:

· motivational readiness (children have aspirations and desire to learn)

· intellectual readiness (development of cognitive processes of memory, attention, thinking, - - - ideas about space and time, about the animal and plant world, about social phenomena.)

· volitional readiness (development of self-control, listening skills, ability to obey the rules),

· socio-psychological readiness (or readiness in the field of communication) (the formation of qualities thanks to which they could successfully establish relationships in a new team).

Motivational readiness.

First of all, a preschooler must have a desire to go to school, i.e. motivation to learn. It is important that he wants to learn, can master knowledge and experiences pleasure and joy from learning. A survey of children from preparatory groups showed that almost all children do not want to go to school, justifying this reluctance in different ways: it is difficult to study; there will be homework at school, etc. And those who give a positive answer to this question justify it by the fact that all his peers will go there, that the school has bells, breaks, and a canteen. However, this does not mean that children have realized the importance of studying and are ready to study diligently. The child’s internal position is the basis of readiness for learning, which is why it is so important to form the correct attitude towards school and a new social status.

If a child is not ready for a new social role - the position of a schoolchild, if he has not developed a motivational readiness for learning, then difficulties may arise. You may encounter a persistent reluctance to go to school, weak educational activity, low performance and passivity.

Parents should think about it if by the age of 6-7 years the child:

· has a negative attitude towards any mental activity;

· does not like to answer questions, does not like to listen to readings;

· cannot obey rules;

· does not know how to focus on a given system of requirements;

· does not know how to listen to the speaker and reproduce tasks;

· does not know how to reproduce a task based on visual perception of a sample.

To prevent these negative aspects, parents should:

· tell the child what it means to be a schoolchild and what responsibilities will appear at school;

· use accessible examples to show the importance of lessons, grades, and school routines;

· cultivate interest in the content of knowledge and acquiring new knowledge;

· never say that school is not interesting, that it is a waste of time and effort.

A preschooler usually enjoys learning letters, strives to learn to read and write, shows great curiosity, tormenting adults with his “why?” and “I want to go to school.”

But not only the ability to write, read and count determine readiness for school. Of course, it’s good if a child can read and write before school. But it's just a skill (albeit a very important one for a child's development) like riding a bike or playing a musical instrument. Reading and the ability to count are not physiological mechanisms of memory, thinking, imagination and speech. They develop the child only when, relying on this skill, parents continue to improve the child’s mental processes. This picture is often observed. Parents devote all their strength to teaching their child to read and count, and as soon as he masters the task, they finish the learning process. But in reality, the work is just beginning. After all, reading and counting should not become an end in itself. It is necessary to take into account the entire versatility of the child’s development process, to improve speech, attention, thinking, and memory. The difference between a child who learned to read early and one who learned later will be erased by the 3rd or 4th grade, and perhaps other children will completely surpass him.

Therefore, learning to read and count is an important, but not the main part in a child’s development.

What is more important is the desire to learn new things, but it will not arise if the child has difficulty both perceiving and remembering new material. Therefore, in order for this desire to appear, it is necessary to develop mental processes.

Let us briefly characterize each mental process.

Memory is the ability to reproduce and remember, which is very important for learning at school. Many parents worry that their child has a “leaky” memory (can’t remember poetry, can’t remember his address), and are afraid of difficulties in school. Indeed, at school it is necessary to memorize a lot of information, and without memorizing and reproducing previous material, it is impossible to learn new things. It is important for school that the child can manage his memory, set a conscious goal - to remember, using strength and will. And to do this, he needs to be helped to master memorization techniques: repetition, highlighting meanings, dividing into parts, diagrams. The more parents train their children’s memory, the easier it will be for them to learn and learn new things. For example, after telling a fairy tale, you can ask the child to draw pictures and then retell the plot based on them.

Hearing - a preschooler learns almost all information about surrounding objects and phenomena by ear. At school, 70% of class time is spent listening to the teacher and classmates' answers. Therefore, it is important to develop active listening, the ability to maintain attention on important information without being distracted by extraneous sounds. Active listening develops when reading fairy tales and stories aloud. Tell your child a fairy tale and ask him to retell it to his favorite toy. These games develop auditory attention. If, while working with a child or explaining something to him, you notice that he is yawning, fidgeting, or distracted, then you should change the volume of your voice and the pace of speech.

Attention - the ability to concentrate when performing certain actions, identifying objects among others (signs, drawings, faces) are necessary for the ability to see and retain images that arise during the learning process.

Example: on the way from kindergarten, ask your child what his friends were wearing, ask what color his friend’s bow was, where she put the toy she was playing with. These tasks will teach your child to be observant and attentive.

Spatial orientation - the ability to distinguish the location of objects and take into account their movement is necessary for general orientation in space and on paper. To prevent this from causing difficulties for a first-grader, you need to prepare him in advance and teach him to clearly navigate in space. To do this, it is useful to play games with him. For example: having hidden something, direct the search for it with the commands: far, close, left, right. Walking down the street, think about what is where. These activities will help your child confidently navigate not only the environment, but also on paper.

Thinking is the ability to compare objects and phenomena, highlight important features, answer questions coherently, reason, and continue an unfinished sentence.

Fine motor skills -“The smarter the hand, the smarter your baby.” The development of fine movements of the fingers is directly related to the development of the cerebral hemispheres, which means that the more accurate and subtle the hand movement, the better the brain develops. Well-developed fine motor skills will help your child develop beautiful handwriting.

It is advisable to do special exercises with children every day for 15-30 minutes. The main thing in classes is not the number of hours, but their regularity.

Willful readiness

The child must have a set of strong-willed qualities, without which he will not be able to carry out the teacher’s assignments for a long time, not be distracted in class, or complete the task. This is not so much about the ability to obey, although following certain rules of the school routine is also important, but about the ability to listen, to delve into the content of what an adult is saying. The student needs to be able to understand and accept the teacher’s task, subordinating his immediate desires and impulses to him. To do this, it is necessary that the child can concentrate on the instructions he receives from the adult. Pay attention to whether the baby can concentrate on any activity (draw, sculpt, craft). A child who does not obey the teacher because he did not obey both his parents and kindergarten teachers is destined for the role of a “difficult” student. The ability to obey, the ability to follow a rule, is most easily developed during the process of playing (daughters - mothers, board games). How to develop strong-willed readiness?

1. Increase the child’s independence and responsibility:

· assign a specific task to the child and encourage its implementation;

· learn poetry, retell fairy tales, stories.

2. Develop self-control:

· use games like: “Do the same”, “Construction based on a model”, “Find 5 differences”...

· develop the desire to act for moral reasons.

Be gradual in expressing demands, since arbitrariness of behavior only begins at this age.

Develop self-confidence and self-confidence by creating situations of success.

The use of examples from fairy tales and stories can help in the development of volitional and emotional readiness (reading fiction, staging fairy tales in a children's theater, looking at paintings, listening to music).

Readiness in the field of communication

Social and psychological readiness (or readiness in the field of communication) includes the formation in children of qualities thanks to which they could successfully establish relationships in a new team.

Children's readiness for school in the area of ​​communication includes:

· development of the need to communicate with other children and adults;

· the ability to obey the traditions and rules of the group without infringing on one’s interests;

· developing abilities to cope with the role of a student in a school learning situation.

Communication is a multifaceted process of establishing and developing contacts between people, generated by the need for joint activities.

The ability to establish contacts with others helps facilitate the process of adaptation to school life and new social conditions.

The ability to build relationships with peers and adults is an important component of strong-willed readiness for school.

It is important that the child develops the following qualities:

· goodwill;

· respect for comrades;

· sociability;

· willingness to show sympathy.

The presence of such traits contributes to the creation of an emotional tone in communication.

Such psychological prerequisites for inclusion in the class team,
How the ability to coordinate actions with others, to realize one’s own successes and failures in relation to the common goal of joint activities, develops in a preschooler in the process of their participation in joint activities with peers in a group:
