Explanatory note
"A game for preschoolers is a way of learning about the environment, games are of great pedagogical value - they develop children's ingenuity, endurance, self-control, sense of humor, organization." N. K. Krupskaya. “A fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it, a lesson for good fellows” - we have known these words since childhood. After all, a fairy tale not only entertains, but also unobtrusively educates, introduces the child to the world around him, good and evil. She is a universal teacher. Thanks to the fairy tale, the child learns the world not only with the mind, but also with the heart. And not only cognizes, but also responds to the events and phenomena of the surrounding world, expresses his attitude to good and evil. In the fairy tale, the first ideas about justice and injustice are drawn. The fairy tale activates the child's imagination, makes him empathize and internally contribute to the characters. As a result of this empathy, the child acquires not only new knowledge, but also, most importantly, a new emotional attitude to the environment: to people, objects, phenomena. Problem: Increasingly, children coming to Kindergarten, bring from home not their favorite book, but their favorite disk with cartoons. Once I asked a child: “What book did he and his mother read at home yesterday?” The child thought, but what cartoons he watched, he remembered quickly. The relevance of the game: - the assimilation of norms and values ​​accepted in society, including moral and ethical values; - development of communication and interaction of the child with adults and peers; - the formation of independence, purposefulness and self-regulation of one's own actions;
- development of social and emotional intelligence, emotional responsiveness, empathy, formation of readiness for joint activities with peers; - formation of positive attitudes towards various types labor and creativity; - formation of the foundations of safe behavior in everyday life, society, nature.

All questions - one answer

In advance, you need to prepare cards with the names of various household items. These can be kitchen utensils, household appliances, household and other items, for example: a frying pan, a saucepan, a vacuum cleaner, an iron, a broom, a mop, etc.

The players sit in a circle. The facilitator approaches each participant and offers to pull out a piece of paper with the name of the subject from the hat (box). When everyone has sorted out the cards, the leader stands in the center of the circle, and the game begins. The host asks the players in turn a variety of questions, and the players must answer these questions only with the names of the items they got on the cards (in addition, only prepositions are allowed). Rules: you need to answer questions very quickly, while the one who is talking to the host is forbidden to laugh, while the rest of the participants can deliberately make him laugh.

Options for questions and answers:

• What is your name? - Mop.
• And what do you brush your teeth with in the morning - Vacuum cleaner.
• What is the name of your hairstyle? - Washcloth.
• And who are your friends? - Frying pans.
• What do you have instead of eyes? - Spoons.

The main task of the presenter is to come up with such questions, the answers to which involuntarily cause laughter from both specific players and all other participants. The laughing player is out of the game. The most imperturbable participant who knows how to restrain his emotions wins.

Answers out of place

The essence of the game: you need to answer any questions of the host very quickly, without hesitation, with any proposal that is not related to question asked. For example, the facilitator asks: “Isn’t the weather wonderful today?” The player needs to answer something like this: "I think today is Saturday." If he makes a mistake or answers in monosyllables (for example, says "yes", "no", "true" or "false"), then he is out of the game. One participant in the game cannot be asked more than three questions in a row. The leader's task is to try to confuse the player. For example, he asks: "Isn't it wonderful weather today?" The player replies, "I think today is Saturday." Host: Is today Saturday? Player: "I like to go to the movies." Host (quickly): “Do you like to go to the movies? One, two…” Playing by inertia: "Yes" - that's it, he lost the dialogue and is out!

Sausage

This simple fun game that does not require any additional props can be played while sitting at a table. A leader is chosen, who asks everyone in turn a variety of questions. The task of the players is to give the same answer: “sausage” or related words: “sausage”, “sausage”, etc. The main thing is to answer with the most serious face. Whoever laughs first is out of the game. The winner is the player who will cope with his emotions to the end and will not succumb to the host's provocations. Laughter during the game is guaranteed!

Backwards

Fun outdoor game for kids. The host calls the participants words denoting the names of objects, and the players need to quickly find this item and hand it to the host. The difficulty lies in the fact that the presenter calls all objects “back to front”, for example: chyam, akzhol, agink, alquq (ball, spoon, book, doll). Fun for kids guaranteed!

Are you going to the ball?

A fun word game for quick reaction for a small company. The essence of the game: the participants are not allowed to laugh (and even smile!), as well as to pronounce the words: “yes”, “no”, “black” and “white”. The one who violates these conditions gives the phantom to the host of the game - any item he has, after which he leaves the game. When there is no longer a single player left in the game, everyone who has given away forfeits redeem them by completing fun tasks invented by the presenter.

The game begins with the host coming up to each player in turn with the words: “The lady sent you a golik and a broom, and a hundred rubles of money, ordered you not to laugh, not smile, don’t say yes and no, black, white don’t wear. Are you going to the ball?"

Examples of possible dialogs with player errors:

• - Are you going to the ball?
• - I'll go.
• “Would you like to stay at home?”
• — Not, I'll go. Ouch…

• What color will your dress be? White?
• — Yellow.
• - Then the hat, of course, will be white?
• - Not white, and pink. Ouch…

• - Are you going in a carriage?
• - Most likely in a carriage
• What will you wear to the ball?
• — Nice dress.
• — Black?
• — Blue.
• - Will it be sewn especially for this ball?
• - Of course.
• “And you will be the most irresistible lady at the ball?”
• - Necessarily.
• - And you will kiss everyone in a row?
• — Not! Ouch…

During the game, the host tries to make the one who answers laugh; in addition, he asks questions in such a way that forbidden words are uttered as soon as possible, and the players pay for it with phantoms.

Word games

Word games for kids preschool age- a very exciting activity. Reading words is much more interesting than syllables. After all, there is no meaning in the syllable, and each word means something. While the child is learning letters and trying to read syllables, he often does not understand why he needs it. And after reading the first words, he rejoices at a new sensation: "I can read!" From this moment on, it becomes clear to the child why letters are needed and how many interesting things can be learned with their help.

It is better to move on to reading words when the child has already learned to confidently call syllables together, and not by letters. For the first games with words, choose words consisting of 3 letters, for example: SLEEP, CAT, BOW. Gradually increase the number of letters in the words used for games.

If your child is only 4 years old, do not rush to offer to read words longer than 5 letters. From the age of 5, there is no need to adhere to restrictions on the length of words.

The games presented in this article are designed to perform a variety of educational tasks: learn to form words from letters and / or syllables, learn to read words, form the skill of meaningful reading, learn to determine which letters are part of a word, learn to determine the order of letters in a word, develop reading speed, develop speech, attention, memory, thinking. When choosing games for classes with a child, try to choose exercises with different types tasks. Also try to use games in one lesson that differ in the way they are organized, for example: lotto and an outdoor game, one game for making words from letters, and the other for selecting words by meaning. Such an approach to classes at this stage of learning to read will help maintain the child's enthusiasm, and will cause additional cognitive interest in the word.

chains of words

Purpose: to learn to compose words from syllables, to learn to read words, to form the skill of meaningful reading.

Age: from 4 years old.

How to play?

Cut out small cards from cardboard. On the cards with multi-colored pencils or felt-tip pens, write syllables (each syllable in its own color), for example, NO, RA, MA, LO, SI, LA, PA.

On the table in front of the child, lay out a card with the syllable BUT. Let the child read it. Then put a card with the syllable RA next to it. Invite the child to read it. Then the child needs to read both syllables and name the resulting word (HORA). Now remove the first card (BUT), ask to re-read the remaining syllable (RA). Place the MA card next to the syllable RA. Invite the child to read this syllable as well, read two syllables together and name a new word (RAMA). So, gradually removing the first syllable and adding a new one, read the entire chain with the child to the end: NORA - FRAME - LITTLE - ELKS - STRENGTH - PAWS.

In this version of reading, the task of understanding what is read is simplified for the child, since he does not have to think for a long time on each individual syllable of the word: after reading the syllable as part of the first word, in the second the child will simply remember it.

Next time, prepare new cards with syllables: LI, SA, MA, KI, NO, SI, LA, PY. In a chain using these syllables, the words will turn out: FOX - SAMA - MAKI - MOVIE - WEAR - STRENGTH - PAWS.

Gradually increase the number of syllables in the chain.

The letter ran away

Age: from 4 years old.

What you will need: pictures of a nose, oak, cancer, cheese; vowels - A, O, U, I, S, I, E, E, Yu, E (from a split alphabet or magnetic).

Under the picture on which CANCER is drawn, lay out the first and last letter of the word (P and K), leave a gap between them. Ask the child if all the letters of the word are in place. The child needs to guess which letter to insert into the word. Help the child complete the task: together with him pronounce the word CANCER (RAAAAAAK), suggest trying to insert different letters and read the resulting words. Laugh with your child at the wonderful words: RICK, REC, RUK, RYAK, etc. Praise the child when, by inserting the letter A, he says that he completed the task and read the answer.

Similarly, match the missing letters to the words OAK, NOSE, CHEESE.

If the child makes a mistake when completing the task, do not rush to correct it, but say the resulting word, perhaps this way the baby will quickly understand his mistake and correct it himself.

So that the child does not get bored playing this game, use no more than 5 words in one lesson. The words that the child had difficulty recovering, you can think of him again one more time.

Use the words from this list: POPPY, LAK, BALL, NOSE, CATFISH, JUICE, MOUTH, HOUSE, SOUP, ONION, BITCH, navel, BEETLE, CUBE, SMOKE, SON, BULL, RICE, FOX, FOREST, CHALK, SWORD, HAIR DRYER, GRANDFATHER, HONEY, ICE, HATCH, BALL.

What you will need: drawing paper, ruler, pencil, colored pencils or felt-tip pens, object pictures (from board games or cut out of magazines), glue.

How to play?

Under each picture, write the beginning of the word (preferably dividing the words into syllables). Write the endings of words on small pieces of paper in letters of the same size. Invite the child to choose the appropriate endings for each picture and read the words.

You can play without pictures. But for this option, you need to select words related to one generalizing concept, for example: the names of dishes or furniture, shoes or clothes, trees or flowers, transport or cities, months or days of the week, etc.

Write the beginnings of words in a column on a large card, placing them closer to the right edge. Write the endings of the words on separate cards of the appropriate size.

When offering to complete tasks, tell the child in advance which group the words are made up of. When the child is confident in composing words, you can not announce the topic of the assignment in advance, but, on the contrary, at the end of work on each card, ask how everything can be called in one word.

You can return to this game for a long time, making up new tasks on topics that interest your child. The child perceives new words in this game as completely new game, which means that it will be interesting for him to complete the task.

Often children are cunning when doing such work: they do not read what color to paint the details, but guess from the picture. In order for the child to still want to read the names of colors, ask unusual ways of coloring ordinary objects. For example, sign a cloud with the word ORANGE, and set the leaves on the trees to be painted BLUE. Or mix up the colors of the fruits and sign: pear - BLUE, orange - GREEN, banana - RED.

Tell the child that the letters in the library had a holiday - they had fun, danced, and ate. And when, after the holiday, the letters returned to their books, some of them mixed up their places. Now everything can get mixed up in fairy tales too. Ask the child to help - correct the mistakes in the titles of the books: cross out the extra letter or add the missing one, cross out the wrong letter and write the correct one.

puzzles

Age: from 6 years old.

What you will need: paper, pencil, colored pencils or markers.

How to play?

Main preparatory work in this game - inventing the rebus itself. The easiest way is to come up with puzzles for words, which include combinations of letters that are identical to different prepositions.

It is easy to draw puzzle tasks using the preposition B: WATER (write the syllable YES in the letter O), OWL (write the syllable CO in the letter A), TREE (write the combination DERE in the letter O), WIND (write the TER in the letter E). Invite the child to guess these puzzles, and then make puzzles for the words WATA (B - A - TA), VAZA (B - A - ZA), WOLF (B - O - LK), VERA (B - E - RA), WAVE (B - O - LNA), SPRING (B - E - SNA), WAGON (B - A - GON), BRANCH (B - E - TKA), PUMPKIN (PUMP - B - A).

Use words that include the syllable HA to compose rebuses. For example, depict the word PANAMA in this way: write the syllable PA on the syllable MA. Or by writing the syllable KA on the letter U, we get the word SCIENCE. Let the child guess the word and in a similar way encrypt the words KNOWLEDGE (3 - ON - NIE), LANTERNS (FO - ON - RI), NADIA (ON - D - I), BEGINNING (ON - CHA - LO), PENAL (PE - ON - L), ROPE (KA - ON - T), PUMP (ON - C - OS).

You can also compose puzzles for the words: OSA (O "stands" with the letter A), KIT (the letter K and the letter T "together"), URA (the letter R "stands" the letter A), HARE (behind the letter I "hid "the letter C), BOW (the letter L "stands" at the letter K), BEETLE (the letter Zh "stands" at the letter K).

Tell the child that the rebus is a secret letter. It can only be written and read by someone who knows the secret rules. When solving puzzles, you need to name what you see in the picture, but you should not forget about small words - IN, FROM, ON, ON, UNDER, FROM, FROM.

Help your child choose the right prepositions for puzzles, comprehend combinations of letters and prepositions. For example: when guessing a rebus with the word WATER, ask the child where YES is written, then the child will consider several options for letter combinations - YES-V-0 and V-O-YES.

Guessing and compiling puzzles gives the child the opportunity to enjoy the funny surprises of their native language.

On paper, using a simple pencil and a ruler, draw a ladder with steps of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 cells. Place the steps on the right side. Cut out the ladder.

In the first left cell of each step, write the same letter, for example, T. Invite the child to come up with words that begin with the letter T, consisting of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 letters, and enter them in the appropriate cells . For example: CURRENT, CAKE, SHOES, TALENT, SLIPPERS, PHONES, TV.

For the next exercise, make a similar ladder. Write the same letter in the rightmost cells. For example, enter the letter K. Word options for this ladder: BOW or SOK; PARK or MRAK; BALL or KNIFE; RABBIT or gingerbread; GOSSYONK or CALF.

You can enter a letter in the middle of each step. Then there should be 3, 5, 7, 9 cells in the steps. For example, enter the letter C, the words that are suitable in this case: OSA, NIPPLE, PROSEKA.

To help your child find words for the stairs, you can use pictures with images of objects.

In the game "Confusion" the same task is solved - replacing words in a sentence. However, it is given without reliance on living words. Before the start of the game, the teacher reads an excerpt from K. I. Chukovsky's poem "Confusion" (first part) and asks the children why this poem is called that. After the answers, he continues: "That's right. The poem is called so because the little animals mixed everything up. But in reality, this does not happen in life.

Very skillful guidance on the part of the teacher is very important here, who makes sure that the children answer correctly and in a certain order, helps them with questions:

• 1) What words need to be replaced to get the correct sentence?
• 2) What word do you want to replace?
• 3) What word will you replace it with?
• 4) What happened now?

These questions are repeated until a proposal is made.

Children are usually actively involved in this game, but one difficulty is inevitable here. While looking for a suitable replacement word, they must at the same time keep in mind the answers of their comrades and take them into account. For example, children unravel the sentence "A green dog is flying." One child replaces the word "flies" with the word "growls". It turns out "Growls a green dog." It remains to replace the word "green" to get the correct sentence. But another child, carried away by inventing his own version of the replacement of the word, loses sight of the new sentence received and says the word "frog". This does not unravel, but again confuses the phrase, as the sentence "Growls the green frog" is obtained. The desire to definitely take part in the performance of the task, therefore, should not interfere with concentration. Everyone quickly picks up a word and at the same time follows the answers of their friends.

The teacher can offer a variety of confusion, but the number of words should not be three. At first, you can offer confusions consisting of two words or three, but those in which it is enough to replace one word to get the correct sentence.
