Smarties and Smarties (1-4 years old)

A comprehensive educational activity for kids is a single storyline in the form of a whole story or fairy tale.

In the form of a game, children get acquainted with the world around them and perform tasks aimed at comprehensive development. This includes the development of intelligence, thinking, attention, memory, the formation of mathematical concepts. Creative tasks stimulate perception and imagination, and the development of fine motor skills and finger gymnastics will prepare hands for writing and for further successful entry into the school educational process.

At creative classes on early development, kids do crafts - they mold from plasticine, make applications from paper, cereals, cotton wool and many other materials. Such lessons not only develop fine motor skills, but also contribute to the formation of creative and abstract thinking, the child fantasizes, expresses emotions and communicates with peers.

Individual developmental classes with children

An individual approach to education allows you to take into account the personal characteristics of the child to the fullest extent and realize his individual capabilities, reveal his creative potential. Individual developmental activities with children should focus on overcoming existing problems and preventing possible difficulties. Such classes are conducted according to a separately compiled and selected program, which usually includes elements of games and exercises aimed at the physical and creative development of the child, improving his communication skills and emotional sphere.

Planning individual lessons is possible only after the diagnosis of the child's personal characteristics, which is carried out by child psychologist. Such a diagnosis is based on the characteristics of the child's development from the standpoint of clinical diagnosis and a thorough psychological and pedagogical examination.

In what cases are individual lessons in kindergarten necessary?

The individual form of upbringing and development of the child cannot be the main one, since individual lessons are uneconomical in time. For example, a teacher should spend about 15-20 minutes on one individual lesson, groups in kindergartens consist of an average of 20 people, therefore, a teacher will spend more than 6 hours a day on individual training, and this is practically unrealistic. In addition to all of the above, children work more productively in a team during frontal or group classes.

But in some cases, individual developmental activities with children become a necessity. First of all, this applies to children with disabilities in physical, psychological or mental development (for example, often ill children, restless, excitable, impulsive, inhibited, etc.). Individual lessons with such children allow you to correct knowledge and skills, help them manage their own mental processes. Children with bright abilities for any activity (singing, drawing, mathematics), as well as children with dominant cognitive interests, need individual developmental lessons.

Benefits of private lessons

The main advantage of the individual form of lessons is the ability to select methods of education in accordance with the level of development of a particular child. The duration and pace of private lessons are more flexible than face-to-face lessons.

Individual and group developmental classes are distinguished by the psychology of education and the position of the teacher. If in the process of group lessons the educator plays the role of a mentor, then during individual lessons he becomes a partner at the same time, which allows the child to show more initiative.

The main structural elements of individual developmental classes

As a rule, an individual development program for preschoolers is implemented in stages. At the first stage, the development of emotional communication with elements of subject-play activity takes place. The next stage is to develop the child's initial experience in any area. At the third stage, children get acquainted with the standards (color, shape, size) and learn to apply them on various objects and toys. All stages of individual work should be closely interconnected, the transition between them should be gradual.

The structure of individual lessons consists of three conditional blocks:

1. 1. Development of mental activity (thinking, memory, attention, perception). Particular attention should be paid to visual-subject, acoustic and skin-kinetic perceptions ("Extra Toy" and "Paired Pictures").
2. 2. Development of space-time representations. Here, attention should be focused on the use of prepositions and adverbs that denote a spatial and temporal relationship.
3. 3. Development of motor skills. There are many games and exercises for the development of fingers and hands (lacing toys, "Remove the excess" and others).

Many parents want to engage in the development of children from an early age, but not everyone knows how this can be organized. Numerous early development clubs are not satisfied with the high price or inconvenient time of classes. If you have a pedagogical or related education, or have experience in developing your children, you can organize classes with children at your home.

First you need to decide on the location of the classes. Perhaps it will be a corner or a separate room with educational games and manuals.

Define your target audience by age:

• 6 to 12 months
• 1 to 2 years
• 3 to 4 years
• preparation for school.

Make a lesson plan that will cover all areas of the child's comprehensive early development: social, physical, emotional, intellectual.

Your classes can be purposefully devoted to the following areas:

• development of perception, sensory development
• speech, the formation of correct articulation, the perception of sounds, the development of speech,
• attention development,
• creative thinking,
• shaping the imagination
• memory improvement,
• fine motor skills,
• social communication skills
• emotional area,
• Creative skills,
• physical activity,
• modeling from plasticine, from salt dough,
• drawing with paints, crayons, pastels,
• application.

Separately, you can conduct speech therapy individual classes, classes with a psychologist, behavior correction, and the formation of communication skills.

Lessons can be paid hourly or monthly. Start with small amounts, fundamentally less than the cost of classes in children's clubs in your area. When classes gain popularity and the number of applicants exceeds your capabilities, it is worth increasing the cost.

Examples of educational games for the little ones

New discoveries

Say something through the cardboard tube, changing intonations and voice. The child will love to follow the process, listen to you and try to repeat the sounds.

Take several cubes of one color and one of another. Put a bell in a single cube. Will the child be able to find the cube that rings, guided by color?

In any small box, make holes the size of a finger. Inside, stick different materials to the touch - fabric, suede, sandpaper. Help your child feel everything from the inside. Tell him which surface is soft and which is rough.

Put a ticking clock under your pillow, in a wardrobe, or somewhere else nearby. By sound, the child must look for an object. It develops hearing and attention.

With wooden spoons, invite the child to knock on the surrounding surfaces - the floor, the table, the jar of cereals. Comparing different sounds, the baby develops his worldview.

A small car can be rolled on the floor with your hand, or you can push it and see how far it will go. Soon the baby himself will push and roll the car, making it move on its own.

Clap your palms on any hard surface. The child will repeat your movements with pleasure, receiving different sounds.

Movement coordination

Pebbles, sticks, leaves collected on the street can be sorted into different boxes, put in a pile on the floor, laid out on the bottom of a large box to improve the child's activity and stimulate the sense of touch.

Cut the stickers into thin strips and attach the sticky side to the table. Have your child pull the strips one at a time from the table. You can make them multi-colored or different sizes to stimulate the development of fine motor skills of the hands.

To develop coordination, invite your child to arrange the cubes on an uneven, unstable surface, for example, on an inflatable toy. This stimulates the development of coordination and accuracy of movements.

Lay out the toys in the back of the chair, forcing the child to reach for them, developing spatial thinking.

Give your child two toys, one in each hand. Then stretch another one. Will he find a way to hold everything together? And four? How long will his imagination last?

Solution

The concept of size and more or less can be visualized using plastic cups of various diameters, showing how they can be stacked into each other or made up a pyramid.

Tie a string to the toy and invite your child to carry or drag it by the string. Develops spatial orientation and the concept of a sequence of events.

Considering new objects, rearranging the cubes, playing, children improve sensory perception, develop hand motor skills. Classes with infants take place in the presence of one of the parents.

They pay due attention to each kid, take into account his characteristics and desires, make sure that the guys get the maximum benefit from the classes and at the same time do not get bored.
