“Games and exercises that contribute to memorization younger students graphic image of letters"
Performed:
Mironova K.Yu.
teacher primary school
Currently, primary school teachers, when teaching children to read and write, often face such a problem as the difficulty in remembering the graphic image of letters by children. This may be due to insufficiently developed memory and attention of children, as well as insufficient motivation for learning. The work of memorizing letters can be made interesting and exciting for children if you apply the following game tasks:
Laying out letters from sticks;
Laying out letters from laces;
Laying out letters from small pebbles;
Laying out letters from various seeds (beans, peas, seeds, etc.);
Modeling letters from plasticine;
Trace the letter with your finger on velvet paper, first with your eyes open and then with your eyes closed.
Performing the above tasks, children reproduce the graphic image of letters with their own hands, which favorably affects the development of involuntary memory and children mechanically memorize the image of letters.
You can also invite younger students to lay out letters from fingers:
Letter A: the index and middle fingers of the right hand are lowered, the rest are clenched into a fist, and the index finger of the left hand forms a "belt".
Letter O: Thumb and middle fingers form a ring.
Letter ы: the thumb of the right hand is raised up, all the rest are clenched into a fist, the index finger of the left hand forms a separate stick.
Letter C: the index and thumb of the left hand form a semi-oval.
Letter T: The index finger of the right hand is raised vertically, and the index finger of the left hand is placed horizontally above them.
Letter L: slightly spread the index and middle fingers of the right hand down, and clench the remaining fingers into a fist.
Letter P: the index fingers of both hands are lowered, the tips of the thumbs are connected, the remaining fingers are clenched into a fist.
Letter M: close the tips of the index fingers, lower them down along with the middle fingers, and clench the rest into a fist.
Letter D: the index and middle fingers of the right hand are lowered down and moved apart to the sides, and the rest are clenched into a fist; the index finger of the left hand forms a "crossbar" under the fingers of the right hand.
Letter G: the index fingers of both hands touch the tips at a right angle.
Letter b: the thumb of the right hand is raised vertically, and the remaining fingers are clenched into a fist.
Letter Sh: the thumb and little finger of the right hand are connected, and the index, middle and ring fingers lift up.
Letter X: cross the index fingers of the right and left hands.
Letter E: the thumb and index fingers of the right hand form a semicircle, and the index finger of the left hand forms the "tongue" of the letter e.
Tasks on cards:
Find the studied letter among other letters and underline.
Find words that start with the letter you are learning.
Find the studied letter from letters written in different fonts.
Find the letter you are studying in various plot images.
The game "Letter-stranger".
The student has three letters printed on the card, two of which are already familiar, and one is not. At the first stage of the game, the teacher names all the letters, at the second stage the student shows the letter being studied, at the third stage the student names all the letters.
Bag game.
In an opaque bag, the leader collected 5-10 (you can complicate the task by putting all the letters in the bag) plastic letters. The facilitator (the teacher or one of the students) invites the players to choose a letter in the bag and, without taking their hand out of the bag, guess what the letter is based on tactile sensations and their own idea of the graphic image of the letters.
Option 2 of the game: the host offers to find the letter being studied in the bag.
Game "deformed letters".
There are many variants of this game:
The rodents decided to feast on the letters and ate some parts of the letters. Guess what those letters were.
The letters were walking in the clearing, suddenly it started to rain and the letters hid under an umbrella. Determine by individual elements which letters are under the umbrella.
The cat sharpened its claws on the letters and scratched them. Guess what those letters were.
The letters are on the bus and only the upper part of the letters is visible in the window. Guess what those letters are.
Guess which letters are hidden in the house by some protruding elements.
The letters decided to ride on the river, after they got into the boat, only the upper part of the letters became visible. Guess what those letters are.
The fish found letters in the water and bit them. Restore the original image of the letters.
The letters went for a walk, but then a huge dog ran out of nowhere. The letters quickly hid from her on the tree. Guess what those letters are?
Pencils fell on the words and covered parts of the words. What words are hidden behind the pencils?
The letters play hide and seek. Guess which letters are hidden behind the cubes.
Flowers grew in the meadow. What letters did they turn into?
Often for better memory the image of a letter, children need to analyze its constituent parts, i.e. what elements are included in this letter. The following tasks contribute to this:
By applying the above games and exercises in their practice, positive results can be achieved: children will remember the graphic images of letters and will no longer confuse them.

Teaching reading to preschoolers in a playful way is an exciting and unusual option conducting classes. Children in entertaining lessons do not just memorize letters and put them into syllables. They are completely immersed in the process, trying to complete as many interesting tasks as possible, acquiring the skill of reading without pressure from their parents and teacher. What reading games for older preschoolers to choose, we will tell in our article.
Age features of preschoolers
Future first graders aged 5-7 are interesting creatures. They are curious about everything new, they absorb information well, but this period has its own characteristics. They should be taken into account before planning the load, drawing up a work plan for a reading lesson:
- Kindergarteners speak well, constantly replenish their vocabulary.
- Attention becomes arbitrary.
- Kids love to talk, to delve into the essence of the matter, the question.
- Self-esteem grows, awareness of oneself as a person.
- The game remains the main form of knowledge acquisition.
The following simple recommendations from teachers and experienced parents will help to achieve success in teaching reading:
- Keep classes interesting but full of new information. If the child gets bored, then the attention will quickly switch to extraneous matters, conversations, objects. But this does not mean that a preschooler should only be entertained. Alternate games, serious tasks every 5-7 minutes.
- A variety of forms of lessons will ensure high-quality assimilation of knowledge. Do not use the same games. The same type of coloring, puzzles, walkers bother the crumbs, make up a rich game library.
- It is better to practice every day for 15 minutes than 2 times a week for an hour. Short daily lessons are more effective than a lengthy learning process from time to time. Learning to read involves regular practice.
- Don't pressure children. Swearing, shouting, explanations on the verge of hysteria and misunderstanding of the causes of mistakes, difficulties in assimilation of information lead to rejection. The kid will hate school, books even before a thorough acquaintance with them.
- Take breaks for gymnastics. Switching attention is necessary for resting the brain and eyes.
- Use different submission forms. presentations, interactive games, online testers.
- Play in the classroom not for fun, but for the sake of an accessible form of presenting information. It is necessary to approach the choice of tasks taking into account the progress of children in reading, the speed of grasping a new one, and the level of general development.
Game-based learning: pros and cons
Teaching a child to read at 5-6 years old, built in a playful way, has a lot of positive sides. The effectiveness of the lessons can be explained age characteristics older preschool children, an increased level of curiosity for everything new and bright.
Advantages of the method:
- The child does not get tired, does not lose interest in the process of obtaining new information.
- Each lesson can be built according to an individual plan, choosing diverse tasks from a rich file cabinet.
- The preschooler is directly involved in the creation of handouts and demonstration material for the lesson. For example, draws letters, sculpts or cuts out of paper for appliqué.
- Reading does not advance to first master plan lesson. Letters, syllables, words are gradually learned by the child.
- The child in the game lessons develops intellectually, creatively, psychologically.
- The children's team is rallying.
- If the lesson is conducted in a group, you can focus on the competitive moment in the games. Children have a desire to keep up, read and learn better than others.
Disadvantages of the method:
- The teacher may have problems with discipline. Excited children often flirt, do not hear the instructions of the teacher, parent.
- Games, puzzles take a lot of time.
- Transition to traditional ways the presentation of the information necessary for teaching reading is perceived by preschoolers with difficulty, it takes time to switch attention.
This is interesting! In America and Israel, the game moment is necessarily included in every lesson with kindergarteners and younger students. Teachers even pass a special exam for the “ability” to teach while playing.
Before starting a reading training course, draw up a rough work plan, a program for 6 months or a year:
- Start by learning and memorizing the letters. As an assistant, use the Zaitsev cube technique.
- Automate their search, naming. Make crafts from plasticine, decorate letter symbols, select words for one sound.
- Gradually combine sounds into syllables, invite the child to compose simple words independently, look for them in pictures, write. Play, search for letters, associations. This helps to blend the sounds.
- Read the words separately from each other and in small sentences. At this stage, use tasks with the search for names for pictures, solving puzzles, crossword puzzles.
- Try reading small texts. At the initial stage, select stories in the card index to read with your mother together, with pictures instead of words. Make the task more difficult gradually. Take Zhukova's primer to help.
Important! At 5-6 years old, do not demand reading speed from your child. The main task of teaching in the preschool period is skill automation. Pace and technique will come on their own or with the help of special lessons later.
