Psychological and pedagogical support of children in educational institutions with visual impairment.
1 Classification of the blind and visually impaired
According to the established classification, the blind include persons whose visual acuity is in the range from 0% to 0.04%. Thus, the contingent of the blind includes people who are completely blind (total blind) and have residual vision (with visual acuity from light perception up to 0.04%).
3 Children with vision problems have speech impairments. This is explained by the fact that the formation of speech in such children proceeds under more difficult conditions than in a sighted child. In children with visual impairments, complex deviations from the norm, violations of spatial coordination, poorly developed fine motor skills, problems in the cognitive sphere are more common.
The least pronounced defects are at the first level of speech formation, only single violations of sound pronunciation are noted.
At the second level, the child has limited active vocabulary, there are some difficulties in correlating the word and the image of the subject, in the use of generalizing concepts, in compiling sentences and detailed stories. Violations of sound pronunciation at the second level are more pronounced and varied. Phonemic analysis is not formed.
At the third level, there is a lack of active and passive vocabulary. The subject correlation of words is not formed, generalizing concepts are not developed. Connected speech is agrammatic, the child uses one-two-word sentences. Sound pronunciation is broken. Phonemic analysis and synthesis are not formed.
At the fourth, lowest level, the child speaks in separate words, phonemic analysis and synthesis are not formed.
Thus, in children with visual impairments, the speech functional system is often not formed, the vocabulary is limited, and the understanding of the semantic side of speech is distorted.
Fuzziness, narrowness of perception makes it difficult to recognize objects, their forms, characteristic external features. Children do not see lines, they confuse similar letters, they lose and repeat lines when reading, they do not notice punctuation marks, they pronounce words incorrectly. Visually impaired children have phonetic-phonemic and articulatory difficulties. Often there are problems of lexical and grammatical properties. With visual work in visually impaired children, fatigue quickly sets in, and working capacity decreases.
Behavioral Features
The lack of visual control over movements complicates the formation of coordination of movements. As a result of this movement, the blind are constrained, ugly, insecure, there is no accuracy in their execution. There are communication problems.
5 Teaching the blind and visually impaired together with sighted children
Let us consider the features of teaching a child with visual impairment in a group of sighted peers. It is better if a speech therapist is still involved with such children. The following must be taken into account in the work:
1. In the class where such a child is, it is desirable that there be no more than 15 students in order to ensure an individual approach to the child.
2. First of all, it is necessary to create a psychological attitude of a blind and visually impaired student to overcome difficulties. The rest of the students should be introduced to the features of the blind and visually impaired, create a friendly environment and form good relations to such a student. However, actions aimed at achieving this goal must be deliberate and tactful, since excessive patronage of a new student can develop selfish attitudes in him, and a condescending attitude in the surrounding children.
Children are sometimes violent and may tease and bully a blind or visually impaired child. In a tactful manner, the teacher should explain to the students that one should not focus on the defect of a sick child, much less tease and offend him. The teacher should show many positive aspects of his blind students, for example, knowledge of a large number of poems, stories, the ability to sing, in order to arouse respect for them from sighted students. The objectivity of the assessment should also become the norm of the teacher's work, which will allow children with visual impairments to feel on equal terms with sighted children.
3. When accepting a visually impaired child into his class, the teacher should carefully consider where to seat the new student. If the child has retained partial vision or is visually impaired, i.e. visual acuity is more than 0.05, and he does not have a pronounced photophobia, he should be put on the first desk, preferably in the middle row.
A totally blind child or a child with a profound visual impairment, relying in his work on touch and hearing, can work at any desk, taking into account the degree of audibility in this place. If the child does not have photophobia and needs additional lighting, the workplace should be lit with a desk lamp with a dimmer.
If a student has severe photophobia, they should be seated with their back to a window or have a curtain over the window. If there is photophobia in one eye, the child should sit so that the light falls from the opposite side.
4. The optimal load on the vision of visually impaired students is no more than 15-20 minutes of continuous work. For students with severe visual impairment, depending on individual characteristics, it should not exceed 10-20 minutes. The classroom should be provided with increased general illumination (at least 1000 lux) or local illumination at the workplace of at least 400-500 lux. Be sure to use physical minutes.
5. If a visually impaired child works based on vision, then when using the board, the notes should be saturated and contrasting, the letters should be large. When writing, he should use colored markers for the most important points in the recorded material, then you do not have to strain your eyesight to read the entire entry in the notebook. The use of special visibility, large frontal (up to 15-20 cm) and differentiated individual (from 1 to 5 cm); the use of backgrounds that improve visual perception when demonstrating objects; the predominance of red, orange, yellow aids, stands that allow you to view objects in a vertical position;
6. One of the important tasks of a teacher is to include a blind and visually impaired student in the work of the class. At the same time, the teacher and students should remember that the rate of writing and reading of the blind and visually impaired is lower. He won't be able to keep up with the class. In this regard, along with the Braille device, voice recorders are used, on which fragments of the lesson are recorded.
7. The next point is the limitation of the time of visual work. The teacher should remember this and teach the blind and visually impaired to analyze literary works by ear, highlighting only the supporting words and sentences. The speech of the teacher must be expressive and accurate, it is necessary to pronounce everything that he does, writes or draws.
8. Considering that many objects blind and visually impaired children have never held in their hands or have seen only vaguely, and therefore are incomprehensible to them, it is necessary to use real objects, directing the hands and eyes of children to them.
9. During breaks and after classes, children with visual impairments should be able to get to know their classmates better, maybe even feel them. Unfortunately, many blind and visually impaired people do not know how to communicate, they do not listen to the interlocutor, and dialogue in communication does not work. The speaker wants to show that he knows a lot, but this behavior does not evoke an emotional response from the listener.
In a new team of sighted children, a visually impaired child has to overcome a number of complexes, such as fear of space and new people, self-doubt. In this he needs to be helped by giving him the opportunity to be a leader, for example, the captain of a checkers or chess team, leading literary composition, quizzes, etc.
It is necessary to include it in various trips and excursions. If you prepare a blind child as a guide, then this will serve both his self-affirmation and recognition from classmates. At the same time, he must observe the same norms and rules of behavior as other children. However, he should be encouraged in successfully following these rules.
10. A smile or a nod of the head as a way of encouraging is not always available to a child with a visual impairment. It is best to place a hand on the shoulder or stroke it, but verbal praise is even more important as it is heard by other children as well.
11. The most difficult problem for the blind is orientation in space. The child should know the main landmarks of the room where classes are held, the way to their place. In this regard, you should not change the situation and place of the child, especially at first, until he develops the automaticity of movement in a familiar room.
12. Children love to watch movies and videos. The blind and visually impaired should also be encouraged to watch them. However, the show should be accompanied by verbal explanations of the situation, the situation, the behavior of the characters.
13. Some children with visual impairments try not to draw attention to their problems due to existing complexes and are embarrassed to ask for help from an adult or classmates. In such cases, you need to constantly keep the child in your field of vision and try to see and feel when he needs help. The child must learn to ask for and accept help from peers. It is very important that in this situation the child retains self-esteem and seeks to help himself in a situation that corresponds to his abilities.
1.6 Qualities necessary for a teacher in working with blind children
In addition to education in working with blind children, a teacher needs the following qualities:
Love for children, caring, willingness to fulfill maternal duties (provide direct assistance in self-care and spatial orientation);
Observation, the ability to put oneself in the position of a student, to penetrate into the world of his personality, to understand his mental state, etc.;
High level of speech culture (content, correctness and figurativeness of speech, simplicity of presentation, emotionality);
Organizational skills (preparation for each event, rational placement of performers);
Communication skills (the ability to achieve mutual understanding with students);
The development of pedagogical attention (the ability to navigate in various situations, pedagogical flexibility, the ability to restrain one's negative emotions);
Pedagogical enthusiasm (initiative, willingness to do any work together with children).

Introduction
Today, regional models of inclusive learning practices are being actively formed in Russia. This means that children with special educational needs (children with disabilities, with special needs) will be able to be included in the general educational process. Getting children with special educational needs education is one of the main and indispensable conditions for their successful socialization, ensuring full participation in society, effective self-realization in various types of professional and social activities.
Inclusive education is a new stage in the development of education in general, it is a progressive way of learning that has great prospects in modern society. Many rightly believe that inclusion is the best way of individualization in education, since each child is individual and requires a really special approach. In conditions of inclusive education, a child with a disability feels equal among equals, it is easier for him to enter ordinary life. In addition, joint education of children with developmental disabilities and children without such disabilities contributes to the formation of a tolerant attitude towards the disabled and their families. Inclusive approaches provide equal opportunities and exclude discrimination of children with disabilities and special needs in education.
V federal law on education in the Russian Federation proclaims the principle of accessibility of obtaining quality education without discrimination by persons with disabilities, including on the basis of special pedagogical approaches, the most suitable languages, methods and ways of communication for these persons, through
organizations of integrated and inclusive (joint) education
persons with disabilities.
Chapter 1. Theoretical aspects of the problem of psychological and pedagogical support of a child with visual impairment
An analysis of the causes of visual impairment shows that in 92% of cases, low vision and in 88% of cases blindness are congenital. At the same time, among the causes of childhood blindness, a tendency towards an increase in the frequency of congenital anomalies in the development of the visual analyzer is noticeable: in 1964 - 60.9% of such anomalies (data from M.I. Zemtsova, L.I. Solntseva); in 1979 - 75% (A. I. Kaplan); r 1991 - 91.3% (L. I. Kirillova); in 1992 - 92% (A.V. Khvatova). Congenital diseases and anomalies in the development of the organs of vision can be the result of external and internal damaging factors. Approximately 30% of them are hereditary in nature (congenital glaucoma, optic nerve atrophy, myopia (FOOTNOTE: Myopia is myopia).
Blindness and profound visual impairment cause deviations in all types of cognitive activity. The negative impact of visual impairment is manifested even where, it would seem, this defect should not harm the development of the child. The amount of information received by the child decreases and its quality changes. In the field of sensory cognition, the reduction of visual sensations limits the possibilities of forming images of memory and imagination. From the point of view of the qualitative features of the development of children with visual impairments, one should first of all point out the specificity of the formation of psychological systems, their structures and connections within the system. There are qualitative changes in the system of relationships between analyzers, specific features arise in the process of forming images, concepts, speech, in the ratio of figurative and conceptual thinking, orientation in space, etc. Significant changes occur in physical development: the accuracy of movements is disturbed, their intensity decreases.
Consequently, the child develops his own, very peculiar psychological system, qualitatively and structurally not similar to the system of a normally developing child.
Attention
Almost all the qualities of attention, such as its activity, direction, breadth (volume, distribution), the ability to switch, intensity, or concentration, stability, are affected by visual impairment, but are capable of high development, reaching, and sometimes exceeding the level of development of these qualities of the sighted. The limited external impressions have a negative impact on the formation of the qualities of attention. The slowness of the process of perception, carried out with the help of touch or a disturbed visual analyzer, affects the rate of switching of attention and manifests itself in the incompleteness and fragmentation of images, in a decrease in the volume and stability of attention.
For the successful implementation of a particular type of activity, the development of appropriate properties of attention is required. So, in educational activities, an important condition is the arbitrariness of the organization of attention, focus on educational material when performing tasks, the ability not to be distracted, i.e. development of concentration and stability of attention.
At the same time, in such a specific activity as spatial orientation, as well as in labor activity, the condition for efficiency and effectiveness is the distribution of attention, the ability to switch it in accordance with the solution of specific practical problems. It is necessary for the blind and visually impaired to compensate for visual impairment.
actively use the information coming from all intact and broken analyzers; the concentration of attention on the analysis of information received from one of the types of reception does not create an adequate and full image, which leads to a decrease in the accuracy of indicative and labor activities.
The limited information received by partially seeing and visually impaired people causes the appearance of such a feature of their perception as the schematism of a visual image. The integrity of the perception of the object is violated, in the image of the object, not only secondary, but also certain details are often missing, which leads to fragmentation and inaccuracy in the reflection of the environment. Violation of the integrity determines the difficulties of forming the structure of the image, the hierarchy of features of the object. For the normal functioning of the visual perception of a fact, constancy, i.e., the ability to recognize an object, regardless of its position, distance from the eyes, i.e. from the conditions of perception. For the visually impaired and partially, the zone of constant perception narrows depending on the degree of visual impairment.
Visual impairments hinder the full development of the cognitive activity of blind and visually impaired children, which is reflected both in the development and functioning of mnemonic processes. At the same time, technological progress and modern conditions of education, life and activity of the blind and visually impaired place ever more stringent requirements on their memory (as well as on other higher mental processes), related both to the speed of mnemonic processes, and to their mobility and strength of the resulting connections.
With visual impairment, a change in the rate of education occurs
temporary connections, which is reflected in the increase in the time required to consolidate the connections, and the number of reinforcements. In the work of L. P. Grigorieva, devoted to the study of the relationship between visual perception and mnemonic processes in partially seeing schoolchildren, it was shown that in these children, along with a longer time of recognition of visual stimuli, there is also a decrease in the volume of operational, short-term memory, which varies depending on the change background, color of visual stimuli, and, what is very important, there is a direct dependence of mnemonic processes on the degree of formation of the properties of visual perception.
It can be said that such profound visual impairments, blindness and low vision, have an impact on the formation of the entire psychological system of a person, including personality. In the typhlopsychological literature, the description of the emotional states and feelings of the blind is presented mainly by observation or self-observation (A. Krogius, F. Tsekh, K. Bürklen, and others). Emotions and feelings of a person, being a reflection of his real relationship to objects and subjects that are significant for him, cannot but change under the influence of visual impairments, in which the spheres of sensory cognition are narrowed, needs and interests change. The blind and visually impaired have the same "nomenclature" of emotions and feelings as the sighted, and show the same emotions and feelings, although the degree and level of their development may differ from those of the sighted (A. G. Litvak, B. Gomulitzki, K Pringle, N. Gibbs, D. Warren). A special place in the occurrence of severe emotional states is occupied by the understanding of one’s difference from normally seeing peers, which occurs at the age of 4-5 years, who understood and experienced their defect in adolescence, awareness of the limitations in choosing a profession, a partner for family life in adolescence. Finally,
a deep stressful state occurs with acquired blindness in adults. Persons who have recently lost their sight are also characterized by low self-esteem, a low level of claims, and pronounced depressive components of behavior.
In activity, new mental formations are formed, it creates a zone of proximal development of the child. Children with profound visual impairments are characterized by a slow formation of various forms of activity. Children need specially directed training in the elements of activity and, mainly, its executive part, since the motor sphere of blind and visually impaired children is most closely related to the defect and its influence on motor acts is the greatest. In this regard, the active and developing role of the leading activity is stretched over time. For example, in preschool age, among the blind, interchangeable forms of leading activity are subject and play (L. I. Solntseva), and in primary school age - play and learning (D. M. Mallaev). At the age of up to three years, there is a significant lag in the mental development of children with visual impairments due to emerging secondary disorders, manifested in inaccurate ideas about the world around them, in the underdevelopment of objective activity, in slow-developing practical communication, in orientation and mobility defects in space, in general development motility.
The formation of learning activity in blind and visually impaired junior schoolchildren is a long and complex process. The basis of this process is the formation of readiness to consciously and deliberately acquire knowledge. At the initial stage, learning is still an unconscious process that serves the needs of other species.
activities (play, productive activity), and their motivation is transferred to the assimilation of knowledge. Teaching at the first stages has no educational motivation. When a blind child begins to act out of interest in new forms of mental activity and he develops an active attitude towards the objects of study, this indicates the emergence of elementary cognitive and educational motives. Children have a special sensitivity to assessing the results of learning, the desire to correct their mistakes, the desire to solve "difficult" tasks. This indicates the formation of educational activity. But it still quite often proceeds in the form of a game, although it has a didactic character.
L.S. Vygotsky considered the child's acceptance of the requirements of an adult to be the main moment that determines and characterizes learning activity. L. S. Vygotsky called the system of requirements for the child the program of the educator. In early childhood, the child is not subjectively aware of this program, but gradually towards the end of the preschool period, he begins to act according to the program of adults, i.e. it becomes his program as well. Thus, the requirements put forward by the teacher become the requirements of the child himself.
The organizational-volitional side of educational activity is the most important in compensating for visual impairment. It is the activity of the blind in cognition, the ability to achieve results, despite the significant difficulties in the practical implementation of the activity, that ensure the success of its implementation.
Children with visual impairments have a complex subordination of motives, from the more general - to study well, to the specific - to complete the task. Readiness for the implementation of educational activities is manifested in
emotional-volitional effort, in the ability to subordinate their actions related to the performance of the task, the requirements of the teacher. There is no difference between the blind and the sighted in this. Differences arise in the implementation of the very process of learning activity: it proceeds at a slower pace, especially in the first periods of its formation, since only on the basis of touch or on the basis of touch and residual vision, the automatism of the movement of the tactile hand is developed, control over the course and effectiveness of activities.
Purposefulness and the ability to regulate one's behavior, associated with the ability to overcome obstacles and difficulties, characterize the will of a person. The will plays an important role in the self-determination of the identity of the blind and visually impaired and his position in society. These people have to overcome greater difficulties than the sighted in learning and acquiring the same volume and the same quality of professional knowledge. In tiflopsychology, there are two opposing views on the development of will in persons with visual impairments. In accordance with one - blindness has a negative impact on the development of volitional qualities, adherents of another view argue that overcoming difficulties forms a strong, strong will.
The formation of volitional qualities of blind and visually impaired children begins at an early age under the influence of an adult educator. There are practically no experimental typhlopsychological studies of the will. Only the formation of the structural components of the will, such as motivation in preschoolers and schoolchildren, the arbitrariness of operating with ideas, and the development of self-control, were studied.
The volitional qualities of a blind child develop in process of activity,
characteristic for each of the ages and corresponding to the potential, individual capabilities of the child. The motives of behavior, formed adequately to his age and level of development, will also stimulate his activity.
The complication of motives contributes to the transition to more complex and socially more significant forms of activity in the children's team. Motivation plays a stimulating role in the formation of labor skills.

Chapter 2. Psychological and pedagogical support for visually impaired
Stages of drawing up an individual program for the development of a child
The purpose of the preliminary stage of work
- collection of information about the child.
The purpose of the diagnostic stage
: - the study of the emotional and personal characteristics of the child, his status, zones of actual and immediate development are determined.
The purpose of the correctional developmental stage:
- improvement of the mental state of students, correction of the emotional-volitional and cognitive spheres, assistance in socialization and career guidance, timely organization of medical and recreational activities.
Purpose of the final stage
- analysis of the results of the effectiveness of psychological, pedagogical and medical and social support for students in a boarding school, adaptation of the child, correctional and developmental work, etc.
Work dynamics
1. Identification of the actual problems of the child.
2. Development of ways to support and correct.
3. Drawing up an individual support program (adaptation, prevention, etc.).
4. Implementation of the planned program.
Drawing up an individual development program (psychological-pedagogical and medical-social support, adaptive, preventive or correctional-developing) will help the speech therapist, teacher-psychologist, social pedagogue and educator to effectively implement the program content.
Golikov Alexey, born in 2008
The level of development of the cognitive sphere of the middle level. Slow pace of learning activity. The level of voluntary attention is low.
Purpose of psychological support
involves the correction and psychoprophylaxis of the personal (emotional, cognitive, behavioral) sphere of the child.
Tasks:
acquiring communication skills:
development of spatial orientation;
development of independence;
form an adequate idea of yourself, your abilities and capabilities;
improve your social status;
to form the need for communication and interaction with adults and peers;
development of school motivation and the ability to stay within the school rules.
Forms of work:
fairy tale therapy , where psychological, therapeutic, developmental work is used. A fairy tale can also be told by an adult, and it can be a group storytelling, where the storytellers can be a group of children.
Play therapy - classes can be organized invisibly for the child, by including psychologist-educator into the process gaming activity. Play is the most natural form of a child's life. In the course of the game, an active interaction of the child with the outside world is formed, his intellectual, emotional-volitional, moral qualities develop, his personality as a whole is formed. Role-playing games contribute to the correction of the child's self-esteem, the formation of positive relationships with peers and adults. The main task of dramatization games is also the correction of the emotional sphere of the child.
Relaxation - depending on the condition of the child, calm classical music, sounds of nature, animal watching, use of a dry pool are used.
Sand Therapy – classes are conducted using a sand and water center.
Psychogymnastics - includes rhythm, pantomime, stress relief games, development of the emotional and personal sphere. Games "My mood", "Cheerful - sad", etc.
Art therapy is a form of work based on the visual arts and other forms of work with a child. The main task is to develop self-expression and self-knowledge of the child. Children's drawings not only reflect the level mental development and individual personality traits, but are also a kind of projection of personality. Doodles represent the initial stage of children's drawing and show both the age dynamics of the development of the drawing and individual personality traits.
Folklore. Modern researchers of folklore emphasize the deep socio-pedagogical potential.
Conclusion
When creating a special educational environment in an inclusive educational organization for any category of persons with disabilities, both developmental deficiencies common to all people with special educational needs and features that are peculiar only to children with visual impairments are taken into account.
Work with a visually impaired child should include not only individual work, but also group work. The child included in the team receives an incentive for further work. In addition, the child learns to communicate, sympathize with another, provide support. Thus, his status rises, the child begins to believe in himself.

Pedagogical support for a child with visual impairment.
A child with visual impairment needs increased attention of the teacher, the competent alignment of his educational route, the construction of the trajectory of his life. Pedagogical experience of working with children with vision pathology shows that the sooner children receive help from the adult community - teachers, specialists and parents, the more successfully their psychological development will proceed, thanks to the unique compensatory capabilities inherent in each child.
The inclusive education and upbringing being implemented at the moment allows children with developmental disabilities, with health problems, the opportunity to receive education in the conditions of mass preschool institutions.
Understanding the importance of timely provision of adequate assistance, an effectively built individual development trajectory, the teachers of our preschool institution develop plans for individual pedagogical support for children with vision pathology. Close cooperation with an ophthalmologist and an orthoptist nurse allows us to solve such problems as:
1. The development of visual representations of the objective world.
2. Development of sensorimotor skills.
3. Formation of ideas about the world around.
4. Activation of visual functions (visual load): increased visual acuity.
5. Development of speed, completeness and accuracy of visual examination of objects and images.
We will introduce you some of the activities used by educators kindergarten for the successful development of children, regardless of the level of their competence development and life experience:
Compliance with the requirements for wearing an occluder and glasses.
The use of ophthalmic simulators to relieve visual fatigue and exercise vision, the development of visual perception and orientation in space.
Correction of touch and fine motor skills with the help of games: “Spread out by color and shape”, “Assemble the pattern”.
The use of exercises such as superimposing one image on another, tasks for stringing beads, tracing contour images through tracing paper, laying out mosaics.
Exercises for the development of visual perception are included (to highlight the shape, color, size and spatial position of objects). For example, “Find the same object”, “Pick up the same objects”, “What is closer to you, further”, “Make a whole out of parts”, etc.
Development of oculomotor functions with the help of games like “Roll the ball into the goal”, “Hit the target”, etc.
More attention is paid to the development of memory, attention.
Development of pupils' sensitivity to sounds environment necessary for the development of auditory attention.
Individual work on the development of skills - technical and artistic, in drawing.
Introduction to the child different kinds children's activities: play, learning, work and dosing of content in accordance with its cognitive capabilities.
Educational material is offered in accordance with the level of cognitive abilities and performance, based on the "zone of proximal development" and the prospect of social adaptation.
As fatigue occurs in the process of organized learning activities, rest is given until the end of the lesson.
The child is offered boxes with natural material, tactile boards, containers, bags, which is necessary for active stimulation and development of tactile and tactile-kinesthetic functions.
There is a use of the logical connection of individual and differentiated work aimed at adapting the child to the surrounding reality, preparing for successful schooling.
Involvement of children in theatrical and musical activities.
Using ophthalmological requirements when working with visibility.
With the help of these directions in the work on accompanying children with visual pathology, a positive trend is achieved in the competence development of the child, his potential, preparation for stress-free education in elementary school.

FINAL QUALIFICATION WORK
The program of individual support for a child with visual impairment, primary school age in conditions secondary school
under the advanced training program for managers and specialists of PMPK, implemented as part of training events
State Program "Accessible Environment"
Introduction:
Vision is the most powerful source of information about outside world. 85-90% of information enters the brain through the visual analyzer, and a partial or deep violation of its functions causes a number of deviations in the physical and mental development of the child. The visual analyzer provides the most complex visual functions. It is customary to distinguish between five main visual functions. Research by specialists shows that developmental delay caused by visual impairment can be overcome under appropriate conditions of training and education. However, this process takes a long time, requires great effort and knowledge of specific deviations and preserved abilities of children.
The category of visually impaired students is heterogeneous in composition, including: in terms of individual visual abilities, the level of compensatory abilities, the characteristics of psycho physical development, due to the features intellectual sphere.
typological, characteristic of the entire category of the visually impaired;
specific, characteristic of certain groups of visually impaired students
Determination of an option for a visually impaired student is carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the PMPK, taking into account the wishes of the parents (legal representatives). In the event of persistent difficulties during training, a visually impaired student is sent for a comprehensive psychological, medical and pedagogical examination in order to develop recommendations for his further education. The procedure for implementing the transition of the visually impaired
The results of mastering visually impaired students of individual work are:
Possession of effective compensatory methods of cognitive, practical, communicative activity, providing a visually impaired student with the ability to organize educational activities, educational cooperation, orientation in the educational environment of the organization;

Purpose of the program
The program of individual support for a child with visual impairment in accordance with the Standard aimed to:
assistance to children with visual impairments in mastering the basic educational program of general education; overcoming the difficulties of students in educational activities;
mastering the skills of adapting students to society;
organizing the work of teachers and specialists of an educational institution in the direction of creating optimal psychological and pedagogical conditions to ensure shortcomings in the physical and (or) mental development of children with disabilities; (visual impairment)
developing the potential of students with disabilities.
Children with disabilities may have physical and (or) mental development disorders of various nature and severity, ranging from temporary and easily remedied difficulties to permanent deviations that require an individual training program adapted to their abilities or the use of special educational programs- creation of conditions conducive to the development of children with disabilities in the basic educational program of primary general education and their integration in an educational institution.
Program objectives:
Identification and satisfaction of the special educational needs of students with disabilities when they master the main educational program of basic general education;
Determining the characteristics of the organization educational process and integration conditions for the category of children under consideration in accordance with the individual characteristics of each child, the structure of the developmental disorder and the degree of severity (in accordance with the recommendations of the psychological, medical and pedagogical commission);
Implementation of individually oriented socio-psychological-pedagogical and medical care students with disabilities, taking into account the peculiarities of mental and (or) physical development, individual capabilities of children (in accordance with the recommendations of the psychological, medical and pedagogical commission);
Development and implementation of individual programs, curricula, organization of individual and (or) group classes for children with severe impairment in physical and (or) mental development, accompanied by the support of a tutor of an educational institution;
Ensuring the possibility of education and training in additional educational programs of socio-pedagogical and other areas, obtaining additional educational correctional services;
Formation of mature personal attitudes that contribute to optimal adaptation in a real life situation;
Expanding the adaptive capabilities of the individual, which determine the readiness to solve available problems in various fields life;
Development of communicative competence, forms and skills of constructive personal communication in a group of peers;
Implementation of a comprehensive system of measures for social adaptation and vocational guidance of students with disabilities;
Providing advisory and methodological assistance to parents (legal representatives) of children with disabilities on medical, social, legal and other issues.
- Continuity. The principle ensures the creation of a single educational space during the transition from primary general education to basic general education, contributes to the achievement of personal, meta-subject, subject results of mastering the main educational program of basic general education, necessary for students with disabilities to continue education. The principle provides a link between the individual work support program and other sections of the basic general education program: the program for the development of universal educational activities for students at the level of basic general education, the program for the professional orientation of students at the level of basic general education, the program for the formation and development of students' ICT competence, the program for social activities students.
- Respect for the interests of the child . The principle defines the position of a specialist who is called upon to solve the problem of a child with maximum benefit and for the benefit of the child.
- Consistency . The principle ensures the unity of diagnostics, individual support of a child with visual impairment and development, i.e. a systematic approach to the analysis of developmental features and correction of disorders in children with disabilities, as well as a comprehensive multi-level approach of specialists in various fields, interaction and consistency of their actions in solving child's problems.
- Continuity . The principle guarantees the child and his parents (legal representatives) the continuity of assistance until the problem is completely resolved or an approach to its solution is determined.
- variability . The principle involves the creation of variable conditions for the education of children with various disabilities, accompanied by a visual impairment child.
It is known that the beginning of schooling is a turning point in the life of any child. At this time, the way of his life and type of activity changed dramatically. For first-graders with visual impairments, the new role of a student often becomes a source of even greater physical and emotional stress. On the general difficulties of the transition from preschool childhood to schooling, problems caused by a visual defect are superimposed. In visually impaired children, visual perception proceeds in conditions of a depleted visual environment, they experience serious difficulties in determining color and color tone, brightness, contrast, as well as the shape, size and spatial arrangement of objects. It is difficult for children to distinguish between several objects, to identify them at the same time. Deficiencies in visual perception negatively affect the development of mental operations (analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization, etc.) of younger students, which greatly complicates educational and cognitive activity. Difficulties are related both to the pace academic work as well as the quality of the performance of educational tasks. All this inevitably leads to low academic performance, and the situation of failure often develops into negative emotional states, which reduces the positive motivation for learning activities and can cause the formation of negative qualities children's personalities.
The program "I see the world" is an additional program that provides individual support for children of primary school age with vision pathologies. It can be implemented by a defectologist, psychologist or teacher who is specially trained to work with children in an equipped sensory room.
The program uses methods of group and individual correctional work on the development of visual perception in children with visual impairment. Work can be carried out with children and correctional, and general education classes elementary school.
Individual support program for a child with visual impairment– correction and development of visual perception in younger schoolchildren with the help of sensory room equipment.
Program objectives:
develop and improve the objectivity of children's perception through the clarification of their visual object representations;
to teach children to recognize objects proposed for perception in different versions, to highlight signs of object identification;
improve methods of visual examination of objects;
through the development of spatial representations, to develop in children the perception of the depth of space, the ability to navigate in it;
improve visual-motor coordination of children with visual impairments.
The main stages of the organization of work:
studying the anamnesis of each child in the class;
completing a child development chart.
identifying the level of development of visual perception of each student in the class;
obtaining objective data on the state of visual perception and visual functions, which are subject to further correctional and developmental influence.
implementation of correctional and developmental work using special psychological and pedagogical tools and equipment for correctional classes on the development and correction of visual perception through individual and group work;
dynamic observation of students by specialists of psychological and pedagogical support.
tracking the dynamics of the development of visual perception of schoolchildren.

1. Preparation for effective perception.
A child with visual impairment needs increased attention of the teacher, the competent alignment of his educational route, the construction of the trajectory of his life. Pedagogical experience of working with children with vision pathology shows that the sooner children receive help from the adult community - teachers, specialists and parents, the more successfully their psychological development will proceed, thanks to the unique compensatory capabilities inherent in each child.
The inclusive education and upbringing being implemented at the moment allows children with developmental disabilities, with health problems, the opportunity to receive education in the conditions of mass preschool institutions.
Understanding the importance of timely provision of adequate assistance, an effectively built individual development trajectory, the teachers of our preschool institution develop plans for individual pedagogical support for children with vision pathology. Close cooperation with an ophthalmologist and an orthoptist nurse allows us to solve such problems as:
1. The development of visual representations of the objective world.
2. Development of sensorimotor skills.
3. Formation of ideas about the world around.
4. Activation of visual functions (visual load): increased visual acuity.
5. Development of speed, completeness and accuracy of visual examination of objects and images.
Organization medical care
Health saving acts as one of the tasks of educational
process, so medical support for schoolchildren with disabilities
vision is a prerequisite for the creation of special
educational conditions. The main direction of medical
conduction is the prevention of diseases of the organ of vision. By
this direction it is necessary to organize medical support
not only children with visual impairments, but also all students of the school.
Preventive measures at school include: control
vision conditions in school medical offices and referral
for treatment to ophthalmologists in district clinics; spent
pedagogical councils, parent meetings, consultations,
class hours and socially significant actions on the issue of conservation

ness to others; performance special exercises for the eyes in the lesson;
conversations with parents about the mode of rest and activities of children at home).
Information Support
Information and educational environment of an educational institution
research should include a set of technological means
(computers, databases, communication channels, software
products designed with special educational needs in mind
children with disabilities). The required information must be submitted to
school website.
For children with visual impairment in the information environment of the institution
niya should be present sound guidance to accompany
visually impaired in the building (at the beginning and at the end of the corridor, the designation of this
madam); translators for transmission necessary information.
Logistics
Creation of special educational conditions at school begins
from the organization of the material and technical base, including the architect
environment (extracurricular and educational space) and special education
ore.
architectural environment
When a visually impaired child comes to school, the first
the difficulty he will encounter is the difficulty in orienting himself in
space. Therefore, for a comfortable stay at school, he needs
help with just that.
School entrance
The extreme steps of the stairs at the entrance to the school for orientation re
a visually impaired child should be painted in contrasting
colors. Railings are a must. Railings should be on both sides
ronam stairs at a height of 70 and 90 cm, for children of elementary grades -
50 cm. The most convenient railing is circular with a diameter of at least 3-
5 cm. The length of the railing should be 30 cm longer than the length of the stairs with each
doy side.
The door is also better to make a bright contrasting color. If the doors
glass, then it is necessary to mark the opening parts on them with bright paint.
The interior of the school
Along the corridors, you can make handrails around the perimeter to
a person who sees poorly could, holding on to them, navigate
when moving around the school. Another way to make orientation easier
tion of a visually impaired person within a school can be a variety of
embossed flooring - when changing direction, the relay also changes
ef sex. It can be floor tiles, and just carpets.
ki. The outer steps inside the school, as well as at the entrance, need to be painted
in bright contrasting colors and equip with railings.
Another solution to the problem of climbing stairs is
a sighted or blind child may have tactile cues
ry for stairs and corridors (designation by touch). Preferably
so that the signs in the classrooms are written in large
font in contrasting colors or there were signs with the inscription
Braille.
You can use sound cues to accompany the
seer in the building (at the beginning and at the end of the corridor, floor designation).
school locker room
In locker rooms, visually impaired students should be allocated an area in
side of the aisles and equip it with handrails, benches, shelves and
hooks for bags and clothes, etc. It is desirable that this area
only used by the same people. Required several times
lead the child to this place so that he remembers it.
School canteen
In the canteen, a visually impaired child should have their own
a parking place that only he will use. Also wish
It is important that this place be in the immediate vicinity of the
feta rack in the dining room, but at the same time it is undesirable for children with disabilities
plant in the dining room separately from other classmates. Desirable
also, that children with visual impairments in the canteen be helped by workers
ki or attendants.
classrooms
Here, too, it is important to consider that students with visual impairments need
we need to create conditions for orientation in space. For creating
accessible and comfortable environment in the classroom, it is recommended to equip
to give them single student places allocated from the general
area of the room with a relief texture or carpeting
floor surface.
It is necessary to pay attention to the lighting of the desktop, for which
eye sits a child with poor eyesight, and remember what is written on before

a visually impaired child should be in the forefront of the teacher

When the lecture form of classes is used, the student with
visually impaired or the blind should be allowed to use a voice recorder
nom is his way of taking notes. It is desirable that benefits
which are used in different lessons, were not only visual, but
and embossed so that a blind student can touch them.
Lighting
According to hygiene requirements, in classrooms
at a distance of 1 m from the wall opposite the light openings,
the coefficient of natural illumination of KEO should be 1.5%.
For classrooms in schools for visually impaired and blind children, the coefficient
The factor must be at least 2.5%. coefficient of natural
22illuminance KEO is the ratio of illuminance
indoors to illumination at the same time outdoors
For classrooms, this light factor should be
set 1:5, for other premises - 1:8. (Light factor
entom is the ratio of the glazed area of windows to the area
floor.) In order for the illumination of the classrooms to be sufficient, the depth of their

morning and evening hours to ensure optimal illumination
at the workplace, it is necessary to turn on artificial lighting
Particular attention should be paid to the condition of window panes, as
how their cleanliness affects the illumination of the room. Unwashed glasses
absorb 20% of light rays. By the end of winter, when the windows are capped
especially a lot of dust and dirt is poured, this number reaches 50%.
To eliminate obstacles to the entry of children into the premises
daylight educational institutions need to contain

Desks in classrooms should be located so that the windows are
to their left, and the shadow from writing hand did not fall on paper if the child
right-handed. Windows should not be behind desks (due to possible
shadows from the head and torso on the work surface), as well as
in front of the desks (so that the bright sunlight does not blind the eyes).
Adjustable sun shades are installed on the windows
(blinds, fabric curtains, etc.) to eliminate glare

Natural light in the classroom depends on the degree of reflection
daylight from ceilings, walls, furniture and other surfaces. Poeto
reflective surfaces should be painted in light colors,
giving a sufficiently high (40-80%) reflection coefficient. For
painting of the ceiling, window openings and frames must be used without
light color, for the walls of classrooms - light colors of yellow, beige
blue, pink, green, blue.

Directions of correctional developmental classes
Protection and development of residual vision and development of visual
perception
In natural life conditions, a child with normal vision
he is exposed to influences systematically and repeatedly
no visual stimulation. Significant reduction in vision
venously limits natural stimulation, as a result of which the child
nok cannot acquire the same sensory-perceptual experience as
seeing normally. Children with low vision are in poor
visual environment in which the genetic prerequisites for development
perceptions lose their power. Corrective work on the development of vision
body perception at this age contributes to a significant
improving the sensory basis of cognitive development.
Correctional developmental classes are represented by such disciplines
lines, such as: social orientation, speech therapy, exercise therapy, rit
mika, protection and development of vision and visual perception, development
touch and fine motor skills, the development of facial expressions and pantomime, pre
31metnopractical activity. These items, together with general
educational courses should provide:
Stimulation of sensory-perceptual activity (development of all
forms of perception);
Development of motor skills of the hand and methods of examination and manufacture
real objects, their images and models;
Development of social skills;
Development of facial expressions and pantomimics of blind and visually impaired students
Activation of social needs and development of skills
standing work;
Development of cognitive activity and cognitive interests;
Formation of the emotional-volitional sphere and positive qualities
honors of the individual.
Visual impairments are a category of psychophysical disorders, manifested in limited visual perception or its absence, which affects the entire process of personality formation and development. Individuals with visual impairments have specific features of activity, communication and psychophysical development. They are manifested in the lag, violation and originality of development. motor activity, spatial orientation, the formation of ideas and concepts, in the methods of subject-practical activity, in the features of the emotional-volitional sphere, social communication, integration into society, adaptation to work.
Typhlopedagogy deals with the peculiarities of teaching and educating children with visual impairments.
The education of blind and visually impaired children is carried out in special schools for children with visual impairments. However, for a number of reasons, some parents do not have the opportunity to send their child to such an educational institution, and therefore the child attends a general education mass school.
A teacher teaching a visually impaired child needs to know some specific features of corrective work with such children. This will allow him to most effectively organize the process of education and upbringing, create conditions for the formation and comprehensive development of his personality.
Workplace a visually impaired child should be properly and adequately lit. Such a child must be placed on the first (near the window) or on the second (middle) row. In addition, it should be borne in mind that a myopic child should be seated closer to the board, at the first or second desk. And a far-sighted child, on the contrary, needs to be put away from the board, on the last desks. This is due to the peculiarities of the visual anomaly of the child.
The teacher needs to ensure that the child perceives the educational material well on the board, in tables, on a map, etc. Therefore, pictorial visual aids should be clear, bright, large enough. If the task for independent work is written on the board, then the teacher must make sure that the child sees well and understands what is written there.
It is important to consider that in children with abnormal refraction (nearsightedness, farsightedness), visual fatigue increases. Therefore, they need, if possible, to give different types of work in the lesson, i.e. alternate visual work with other types of work. After intense visual work at the table for 10-15 minutes (reading, writing, drawing, etc.), the child needs to do exercises to relieve visual fatigue.
Given that it is during the period of schooling that the number of myopic children increases significantly, the administration and the entire teaching staff of the school need to control the amount of homework associated with visual work.
Necessary condition teaching a visually impaired child in a mass school is to create a certain psychological mood in him. He must be ready to overcome the difficulties that may arise from time to time. Classmates need to be introduced to the characteristics of such a child and form a friendly attitude towards him. Care should be taken to ensure that the child is not emotionally traumatized by normally seeing students. But at the same time, one should not overprotect the child, since excessive care once again emphasizes his instability.
Including a visually impaired child in work is a very difficult task for the teacher, for the child himself and for the students. There are a number of features of teaching a child with a visual anomaly, which the teacher must constantly remember. So a visually impaired child reads and writes more slowly than sighted students and will not be able to keep up with the whole class. In this regard, it is advisable to use a voice recorder, on which you can record fragments of the lesson. In addition, the teacher must remember that the time of visual work in a visually impaired child is limited (no more than 15-20 minutes).
The organization of frontal work in the classroom deserves special attention. For visually impaired children, it is necessary to prepare individual cards, texts, visual aids so that they can take part in the frontal work of the class.
In the course of the educational process, the speech of the teacher plays an important role. It must be clear and concise! expressive. The teacher must pronounce everything that he does: writes, draws, demonstrates experience, etc.
Many children with visual impairments have problems communicating with other people. This may be due to the inability to listen to the interlocutor as well as little experience in communication. In such children, speech is often monologue, dialogue in communication does not work. In such cases, help is needed.
In the course of educational work, the teacher should carefully observe how the visually impaired student copes with tasks and adapts to joint work with normally seeing students. These observations are necessary in order to regulate the workload of the student, increase or decrease the solution time. learning objectives.
Requirements for the organization of the workplace
Recommended: single desk, which can be equipped with an additional individual light source (on the recommendation of an ophthalmologist); permanently attached to the floor; have sides that ensure the subject stability of the working area. The number of the desk is selected according to the height of the student, which makes it possible to maintain the correct posture. The place in the class of a visually impaired student is determined in accordance with the recommendations of the ophthalmologist.
Requirements for technical means of comfortable access visually impaired student to education.
For the purpose of comfortable access of a visually impaired student to education, it is necessary to use: Personal Computer, equipped with the software necessary for a visually impaired student (including programs that allow you to enlarge the image, change the background, contrast, etc.), adapted (taking into account the special educational needs of the visually impaired) the official websites of the NGO.
Requirements for technical teaching aids
Along with the general technical means used at the initial stage of education, special visual aids (background screen, etc.) and optical (individual means of optical correction, electronic magnifiers, remote magnifiers, pocket magnifiers of various magnifications, etc.) should be used in teaching the visually impaired, facilitating educational and cognitive activity. Optical and tiflotechnical means should be available for systematic use, correspond to the visual capabilities of the visually impaired.
Requirements for textbooks and educational supplies
In the process of teaching the visually impaired, it is necessary to use:
one). special textbooks, created on the basis of textbooks for normally seeing students, but adapted to the visual capabilities of the visually impaired, textbooks: enlarged in size (16 point), clear, chopped font; bright, color, contrasting illustrative and graphic materials; enlarged, simplified (reduced number of objects and details) images .
textbooks that meet the special educational needs of this category of students.
2). educational supplies: pens with black (for writing educational material) and green (for graphic work) paste; notebooks in a cage and a ruler, which, if necessary (should be specially lined); individual didactic materials and visual aids, taking into account the typological and individual visual capabilities of visually impaired students.
