Features of the formation of intonational expressiveness of the child's speech. Development of intonational expressiveness of speech through game exercises

Consultation for educators.

Subject: "Development of intonational expressiveness of speech in children of preschool age".

Even in ancient times, before the advent of speech as a means of communication, people tried to convey information using screams, sounds of various heights and strengths, gestures and facial expressions. Even a child who can hardly stand on his feet can tell a lot about: did he sleep well? happy about something? frustrated about something? And the wonderful ability of the baby to guess the voice of the mother among other voices, to understand whether she is angry or pleased with him!
Nature has given us a great opportunity to convey our feelings and mood through intonation. "Although the art of writing is very diverse grammatically, it is completely helpless when it comes to intonation. So, for example, there are fifty ways to say "yes" and five hundred ways to say "no", while you can write this word only once ( B. Shaw).
From practice, we know that many preschoolers imitate adults well, accurately convey their intonation, and pick up various shades of speech by ear. A well-developed speech hearing enables children to distinguish between an increase and decrease in the volume of the voice in adult speech, notice the acceleration and deceleration of the tempo of speech, and catch various shades of speech. It makes it possible for the children themselves to use various means of expression more widely: raise and lower the tone of voice, highlight individual words or a group of words in phrases, correctly pause, express an emotionally volitional attitude to what was said. All this helps preschoolers to more accurately convey their thoughts, read poems, nursery rhymes, counting rhymes.

Intonation - it is a complex set of phonetic means expressing a semantic attitude to what is being expressed and emotional shades of speech. Intonation is a means of emotional-volitional attitude of the speaker to the content of speech addressed to the audience. The intonational expressiveness of speech includes the following components:

  • melodic - the movement of the voice in height, that is, its sliding from the main tone up and down; due to the presence of vowel sounds in speech, it gives it melodiousness, tenderness, flexibility;
  • pace - speed of speech utterance: acceleration or deceleration of speech depending on the content of the utterance (it is one of the components of speech intonation, in contrast to the general rate of speech);
  • pause - temporary stop in speech. Logical pauses give completeness to individual thoughts; psychological - are used as a means of emotional impact on listeners;
  • voice power - change the volume of speech sounding depending on the content of the statement;
  • l ogical stress- voice selection of individual words;
  • phrasal stress- voice selection of a group of words;
  • rhythm - uniform alternation of stressed and unstressed syllables, different in duration and strength of pronunciation;
  • timbre - emotionally expressive coloring of speech; with its help, you can express joy, annoyance, sadness, etc.

Thus, intonational expressiveness of speechis provided by the ability to change the voice (raise and lower its tone, increase and decrease the volume), speed up and slow down the pace of speech, use pauses, highlight a single word or group of words with the voice, give the voice an emotionally expressive coloring. With the help of intonation, the speaker expresses his attitude to the expressed thought, conveys his feelings, experiences, brings his statement to full completion.
The correct use of intonational expressive means depends on the formation of speech hearing, the development of auditory attention, speech breathing, on the ability to correctly use the vocal and articulatory apparatus.
The child must be able to correctly use intonational means of expression in order to convey various feelings and experiences in his own speech.

Children master the intonational expressiveness of speech mainly by the age of five. As a rule, this happens in the process of communicating with adults. Work on the development of expressiveness of speech should be carried out sequentially in two stages:

  • first to form the skills of perceiving intonation,
  • then - the skills of its use in one's own speech.

Try to read the same text to the children, but in different ways: the first time - monotonously, inexpressively, and the second time - with intonational expressiveness. Do you think children will notice the difference? Yes, of course, and it will be easy to lead them to the conclusion that it lies in the expressiveness of speech.
Therefore, when organizing a special speech environment, we must create for each child all the opportunities to hear and assimilate intonationally correct speech and always remember that when listening, children reproduce in speech not only words, phrases and sentences, but also intonation in all its components, including number and melody.

monotonous- with a slight increase and decrease in voice;

Ascending form- with a voice raised towards the end of the sentence;

descending form- with a lower voice towards the end of the sentence;

Full form , which includes ups and downs.

Example:
- Yesterday I went to the market and bought apples and pears there. These are fruits. Why didn't you answer me? Okay, well, keep listening. I also bought cucumbers and tomatoes. Are these vegetables? Oh sure! How did you know that the first time I didn't ask you, but the second time I did?
If this technique is used when working with younger children, then we can explain to them that our voice can change - “go up and down the hill”, and when working with older children, we can introduce the terms “voice rises”, “voice falls”.
For the development of the perception of melodics, the conducting technique is effective, in which the rise and fall of the voice is accompanied by smooth movements of the hand up or down. This technique is best used when repeating a twice-said phrase, tongue twister, or poem. First, “draw” a melody in the air with the children, and then the child will conduct it on their own.
It is useful to use exercises aimed at developing voice change: for example, repeat the onomatopoeia of an adult animal and its cub, games like “Question - Answer”, where the analysis of two utterance samples with different melodies is compared.
Listen to the quatrain: “The hedgehog has needles, the siskin has a beak and wings, we will give milk to the hedgehog, tasty crumbs - the siskin.” Now I'll read it again, you finish the words. Good.
- Who has needles? - At the hedgehog. Who has a beak and wings? - At the siskin. Who will we give milk to? - I eat. - Whom will we give delicious crumbs to? - Chizhu.
You can split into two teams, one team asks questions and the other answers.
Poems containing interrogative and declarative sentences, such as “Chicken - Ryabushechka”, “Kisonka - Murysonka”, “Kuliki” can serve the same purpose.
- Who is wandering there by the river? - These are our waders. – What do they want? - Feed your kids. - Where are the guys? - On the sand. – How many are there? - Son and daughter. The feathers on the neck of the son were all wet, from the fact that, without asking, he stuck his beak right into the mud.
Each part of a poem, story or fairy tale is distinguished by its theme, content, mood, and accordingly we choose means of expression. So, a sad, depressed mood usually manifests itself in muffled low tones and is pronounced in a lowered voice; on the contrary, a cheerful, cheerful state of mind is pronounced in a higher tone, that is, in a raised voice. Excitement, sadness, joy - all this is reflected in the voice.
In a state of excitement and depression, the voice changes, deviating from the usual sound. This deviation is called emotional coloring - timbre. The stronger the excitement, the stronger the deviation of the voice from the usual sound. How to determine the desired coloring when transmitting unfamiliar text?
It is necessary to carefully read the content of the work, to understand the author's intention, the idea of ​​the work. The intonational expressiveness of the performance, the emotional impact on children depends on how the content of the work is understood.

The formation of timbre perception skills in children should begin with acquaintance with two contrasting voice colors - joyful and sad. This will subsequently become the basis for the introduction of emotional manifestations that are less contrasting in timbre: anger, surprise, fright, etc.
At the same time, pictograms, photographs depicting emotionally expressed faces can be used as visual material; as speech material - texts and phrases. It is good to use "problem speech stories" related to the plots of literary works. Such "stories" should have a plot that can be understood by preschoolers, but not contain emotional vocabulary that could serve as a hint. When introducing children to the situation, you can give the following instruction: "Now I will tell you one story. And you choose the card (pictogram) that best suits the story."Let's give examples of "problem speech stories".
"Slava loves animals very much. He wanted to visit the zoo for a long time. But mom and dad work a lot, they have no time. Grandma came to Slava. Slava and grandma went to the zoo."(Joy).

"Winnie the Pooh was sitting at home and eating his favorite honey. But out of nowhere, a bee appeared and began to buzz loudly. The bee sat on Winnie - Pooh's head, nose, on a pot of honey. Now he could not eat calmly. rushed after her with a newspaper. He hit with a swing, the pot of honey swayed, fell to the floor and broke. And the bee flew away ... .."(Irritation, anger).

After the child determines the emotional coloring of the story with the help of cards, the task can be complicated: ask them to describe the emotional state of the main characters in words.

Pace is the acceleration or deceleration of the speed of spoken sentences. ForTo do this, it is necessary to introduce children to the concepts of "quickly", "slowly", "moderately". First, we introduce children to contrasting types of tempo: "slow" and "fast", and then a sample of a moderate pace is offered. Nursery rhymes, sayings, tongue twisters, which we often use in our practice, can serve as speech material. You can, for example, invite the child to perform a series of jumps, claps, and waved hands at the pace with which the teacher pronounces the text. If an adult speeds up speech, then children also speed up their movements. For example, we all know the well-known game "Carousel", the song "Drummer".

logical stress- this is the selection of the most important words in meaning, so you need to draw the attention of children to the meaning of each phrase and organize the analysis and evaluation of the text. For example, I will say a phrase and organize its analysis: " Bullfinches peck rowan."
What word did I highlight as the most important? Yes, I told you that it is bullfinches, and not other birds, that peck rowan.
- Listen, as I say now: "Bullfinches
peck rowan". What did I clarify about bullfinches? How did I say an important word in meaning? Yes, and you can also say, quietly and drawn out, like this: "Bullfinches peck rowan."

Listen again: "Bullfinches peck r i b i n u ". What have I now clarified about the bullfinches? How did I highlight the important word? You are right, but I deliberately uttered the important word quietly and drawn out so as not to frighten the bullfinches.
As can be seen from the example, in case of difficulty, children can be helped in the form of leading questions, reminded of the means of expressing logical stress in oral speech.

Rhythm - this is an alternation of stressed syllables that can be set in the form of claps, drum beats, tambourines, a series of syllables, short poems. Children first need to be invited to slap the rhythm of syllabic series.
Ta-ta-ta-ta; ta-ta-ta-ta; Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta.

Want to test how expressive you are?

  • Then sit down in front of the mirror and try to change the meaning of the phrase several times "Give me the ball", "Here is my doll."
  • With how many intonations can you say the words “hello”, “take”, “listen” so familiar to everyone?
  • Well, and read a fairy tale, changing the voice depending on the character, say, speaking, now for Little Red Riding Hood, then for the wolf. Can you?
  • You will be able to convincingly express fear, compassion, complaint, request while reading K. I. Chukovsky’s poem “Doctor Aibolit”.

Test yourself before telling the kids.


Games and exercises for the development of expressiveness of speech.

1. Purpose: to teach children to convey various feelings with intonation (joy, indifference, chagrin).
The speech therapist calls the sentence: "It's raining." Children must repeat it with different intonations - so that it is clear that they are happy, happy; that they are unhappy, it upsets them, etc.

The same task is performed with other sentences (The sun is shining. It is snowing. Mushroom rain. The snowdrop has blossomed. The snake is crawling).


2. Purpose: to teach children to come up with sentences and pronounce them with different emotional colors, conveying joy, grief and more with their voices.

The speech therapist invites the children to say something about spring or winter, so that it is clear that it pleases, that something beautiful, interesting has been seen. (Spring has come! The grass is turning green!). But in the spring, something can upset. You need to come up with a sentence and say it in such a way that it is clear that you are upset, dissatisfied (The rain is inopportune. A cold wind is blowing.)

3. The control exercise can be the use and distinction of intonations.

First, the children must pronounce the sentence so that it is clear that they are surprised (3-4 statements); responses are valued.

Further, it is proposed to say some sentence, either joyfully or interrogatively, or to express sympathy, or simply to report something. “Everyone listen carefully to the intonation. You will find out what is expressed in the sentence,” says the teacher.

Children determine the nature of intonation, if necessary, a speech therapist helps.


One of the effective techniques is reading by children in the faces of poems, nursery rhymes, counting rhymes:

white hare,

Where did you run?

Green forest!

What did he do there?

Lyko fought!

Kisonka - little mouse,

Where was?

At the mill.

Kisonka - little mouse,

What did she do there?

The flour was ground.


4. "Animals and their cubs" - the development and differentiation of a loud and quiet voice. An example is the game "Cow and calf".

5. "Crow and magpies" - training high and low voice, slow and faster pace of speech (carr - carr, tr-tr).

6. "Echo" - the development of the strength of the voice, tempo, speech breathing. Some children make sounds loudly and for a long time: uuu - the whistle of a locomotive, aaa - the cry of a child; syllables ha-ha - ha, ko - ko - ko; words ayy, names of people, nicknames of animals. Other children repeat the same thing in a fading voice, at the same pace, but for less time.

7. "Whose house?" - practicing interrogative intonation, diction, voice. One child knocks (knock - knock) and asks: “Who lives in the house? » He is answered with the voices of a fox, a bear, and he must find out whose house it is. In turn, they ask him: “Who are you?”

8. "Train" - working out the rhythm in speech and in movements: tuk - tuk - tuk, tu - tu-tu, woo. The green trailers run, run, run, And the round wheels go on and on and on and on.

9. "Guess who came" - developing the ability to control voice, intonation, observe the pace and rhythm of speech. The child enters, imitating the movements of one of the animals, birds, accompanying this with speech, onomatopoeia, respectively, for example: “I walked for a long time, I'm tired, I want honey” (the bear - in a “thick” voice).

11. "Kitten" (and other cubs). The kitten is looking for his mother, but does not know how to call her: the puppy advises to bark, the calf - to low, but the kitten does not have it. Finally he finds his mother.

Such games are well combined with the consolidation of delivered sounds in speech. So, practicing the sound [r,] you can offer the game "Foal", which all the time poiznitsya and-hoo! while looking for his mother. The number of characters in such games is not limited.

For more effective formation of the phonetic side of speech in children, a close relationship between learning in the classroom and the perception of sound pronunciation in everyday life is necessary. Such a relationship (in the content and methods of work) is that at all stages of training, in the classroom and in exercises, in everyday life, the same program tasks are solved. In all types of activities for teaching sound pronunciation, children's attention is constantly fixed on the sound side of speech.

I would like to note once again that the role of expressiveness of speech is extremely important. First of all, it provides the design of phrases as integral semantic units, and at the same time, it provides the transfer of information about the communicative type of utterance, about the emotional state of the speaker.

The education of rhythm and intonation is not only a problem of improving the expressiveness of speech itself, but, as the classics of pedagogy and psychology have repeatedly noted, rich rhythmic speech contributes to the overall mental development of the child and facilitates learning. KD Ushinsky noted the importance of rhythm for teaching writing.

Thus, the question of the education of expressive speech is connected with the general process of learning. The richer and more expressive the child's speech, the deeper, wider and more diverse his attitude to the content of speech: expressive speech complements and enriches the content of the preschooler's speech.


The development of intonation expressiveness as a necessary condition for the development of speech in preschool children.

preschool groups

Currently, the saying "The word is the visiting card of a person" is known. How competently a person expresses himself depends on his success not only in everyday communication, but also in professional activities. This statement is especially relevant in relation to the speech of a teacher working with preschool children.

From the experience of working in a preschool educational institution, I have highlighted some shortcomings in the teacher's speech, for example, the haste of speech - an accelerated pace makes it fuzzy, blurry, difficult to perceive; slurred pronunciation; monotony of speech, pronunciation of words with the wrong stress; clogging of speech with unnecessary words (well, that's what it means), as well as the inexpressiveness of the educator's speech.

Working with preschool children, communicating with parents, a problem was identified: it is necessary to improve the quality of children's speech development through raising the level of teachers' speech.

The teacher needsbe able to correctly, accurately and expressively convey their thoughts by means of language. To solve this problem, you can define the followingadachi:

    strict compliance of the content of the speech of the educator with the age of the children, their development, the stock of ideas, based on their experience;

    teachers' possession of methodological skills, knowledge of the techniques necessary to exert an appropriate influence on the speech of children;

    the ability of teachers to apply cultural and methodological requirements to their own speech in all cases of communication with preschoolers.

Children of each age group communicate with their teacher in various activities: household and labor, educational. The teacher organizes games with children, speaks with them in all classes, introduces children to the speech of the authors of works of art while reading, etc. Consequently, the developing potential of the speech environment depends entirely on the quality of the educator's speech. For a kindergarten teacher, mastery of exemplary speech is an indicator of his professional readiness. He is obliged to develop in himself a perfect mastery of those speech skills that he will then pass on to his children. Therefore, concern for improving the communicative and speech skills of the educator is of paramount importance in the pedagogical process of a preschool institution.

Children learn to speak through hearing and the ability to imitate. Preschoolers say what they hear, since the internal mechanisms of speech are formed in a child only under the influence of the systematically organized speech of adults.

One of the main mechanisms for children to master their native language is imitation. Imitating adults, the child adopts "not only all the subtleties of pronunciation, word usage, construction of phrases, but also those imperfections and errors that occur in their speech."

One of the requirements for the teacher's speech is itsexpressiveness - this is a feature of speech that captures attention and creates an atmosphere of emotional empathy. The expressiveness of the teacher's speech is a powerful tool for influencing the child. The educator who owns various means of expressiveness of speech (intonation, tempo of speech, strength, pitch of voice, etc.) contributes not only to the formation of the arbitrariness of the expressiveness of the child's speech, but also to a more complete understanding of the content of the adult's speech, the formation of the ability to express his attitude to the subject of conversation.

The expressiveness of the teacher's speechlies in the ability to use all language units in order to optimally express information. The rich lexicon of the educator contributes to the expansion of the child's vocabulary, helps to form his skills in the accuracy of word usage, expressiveness and figurativeness of speech, since the foundations of the child's vocabulary are formed at preschool age.

How thin is the chick squeaking? (“Pee-pee-pee.”) At this time, the bird flew in, gave the chick a worm and squealed: “pee-pee-pee” (pronounces onomatopoeia in a lower voice). How did the mother bird squeak? ("Pee-pee-pee.")

The bird flew away and we moved on. We hear someone at the fence shouting thinly: “meow-meow-meow” (pronounces onomatopoeia in a “thin” voice). And a kitten jumped out onto the path. How did he meow? (Children reproduce the model of the educator.) It was he who called the cat mom. She heard, running along the path and meowing:

“meow-meow-meow” (says “meow-meow” in a lower voice). How did the cat meow? ("Meow meow meow".)

And now, children, I will show you who came to visit us. The teacher takes out the cat, shows how she walks on the table, then sits down. How does a cat meow? Children, lowering their voice, say: "meow-meow-meow."

Then the teacher takes out a kitten, a bird, a chick, and the children imitate their voices.

Guidelines . Make sure that the children do not scream, but speak calmly, raising and lowering their voice within the limits accessible to them.

development of auditory attention

Game "Guess what to do"

Short description :

Children sit in a semicircle on chairs. The teacher says: “We went for a walk in the forest in the summer. We go through the field, the sun is shining, a light breeze is blowing and the grass is swaying, flowers (shows a picture). It blows softly, like this:woo "(quietly and for a long time pronounces the soundat ). We came to the forest, picked up a lot of flowers and berries. They were about to go back. Suddenly a strong wind blew (shows a picture). He hummed loudly:woo ... " (pronounces this sound loudly and for a long time). Children repeat after the teacher how a light breeze blows and how a strong wind hums.

Then the teacher shows the pictures, no longer pronouncing the sound, and the children imitate the corresponding wind.

Guidelines . The teacher makes sure that the children, repeating after him, observe the same power of voice.

Short description :

The teacher puts 3 pictures of a train on the board. He says: “The train before leaving the station is buzzing -uuu . The train is standing close, and we hear a loud horn. (makes a soundat in a loud voice.) When the train left the station and honked, we heard a not so loud horn. (He pronounces onomatopoeia in a normal voice of medium volume.) And when the train has gone far and hummed, it is already barely audible. (Pronounces onomatopoeia in a low voice.)

Next, the teacher pronounces the soundat with different voice strengths, and the children indicate the corresponding picture.

Guidelines . If the children answer correctly, then they themselves can take turns leading (give a signal with a voice of different strength).

DEVELOPMENT INTONATIONAL EXPRESSION OF SPEECH OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN

Children master the intonational expressiveness of speech mainly by the age of five. As a rule, this happens naturally in the process of communicating with adults. At the same time, many preschool teachers are faced with the problem of monotony and inexpressiveness of children's speech in preparation for performances at holidays, when reading poems, and when playing roles in dramatization games.

In most cases, the monotony of speech is due to the fact that preschoolers do not realize the meaning of intonation for conveying the meaning of statements and their attitude to what is happening.
It is advisable to carry out work on the development of expressiveness of speech sequentially, in two stages: first, to form the skills of perceiving intonation, then the skills to use it in one's own speech.
The method of comparative analysis of two samples of reading the same text makes it possible to show children the role of intonation in speech. The first time the teacher reads the text inexpressively, the second time - with intonational design. Children will certainly notice the difference, and it will be easy to lead them to the conclusion that it lies in the expressiveness of speech. It is advisable to explain to preschoolers that intonation helps not only to accurately convey their thoughts and feelings, but also to better understand the feelings and attitudes of other people towards us.
After that, you can proceed to the formation of the skills of perception of individual intonational components:
- melodics (raising and lowering the voice at the beginning, middle and end of the phrase);
- tempo (speeding up or slowing down the speed of pronouncing phrases);
- rhythm (alternation of stressed syllables);
- timbre (emotional coloring of the voice);
- logical stress (highlighting the most important word in terms of meaning).
First stage
Melodika. To draw the attention of children to the melody (basic tone of voice) and show its significance, you can use such a technique as "telling a problem story": "Yesterday I was in the store. I bought apples, pears, bananas. These are fruits." (Affirmation, tone of voice lowers.) After a pause, ask: "Why didn't you answer me?" Suggested response from the children: "You didn't ask us!" - "Well, listen further. I also bought cucumbers and tomatoes. Are these vegetables?" - "Oh sure!" - "How did you know that the first time I didn't ask you, but the second time I did?" Most likely, the children will not give the correct answer, but will suggest that the voice has changed.
The teacher explains that the human voice can change - "go up and down the hill" (when working with older preschoolers, you can enter the terms "voice rises", "voice falls").
When explaining, visual material should be used: cards on which an increase in melody will be indicated by an arrow pointing obliquely upwards, and a decrease in melody - by an arrow pointing obliquely down.
Conducting is an effective technique in which raising and lowering the voice is accompanied by smooth movements of the hand up or down.
Speech material can be:
- series of sounds and syllables;
- declarative sentences - are pronounced in a calm voice, decreasing evenly by the end of the sentence (Strawberries ripen in the clearing. A rainbow appeared after the rain.);
- interrogative sentences - the word containing the question is pronounced in a high voice, by the end of the sentence the melody goes down (Who spilled the milk? Andrey came from school?);
- exclamatory sentences with the so-called evaluative intonation - are pronounced with an increase in the melody (How beautiful in autumn! Kok is scary in the dark!);
- exclamatory sentences with the so-called "vocative" intonation - words of appeal, greetings are pronounced in a high voice, and by the end of the sentence the melody goes down (Hello, Natalya Sergeevna! Sveta, let's go for a walk in the park!), And an incentive intonation - on the word that contains the request , an order, the voice sounds high, and by the end of the sentence it drops evenly (Grandma, pour some milk! Stop, who's coming!).
To develop the perception of melody, the educator utters separate phrases or series of syllables twice and, when repeated, invites the children, first with him, and then independently "draw" the melody in the air, i.e. conduct (the games "Conductors", "Magic Line" - hereinafter, see the appendix).
A task is considered more difficult in which children, while listening to speech material, must raise a card over their heads with the designation of the corresponding melody (games "Make a diagram", "Point", "Exclamation mark", "Dictation").
One of the methods used in the work is a comparative analysis of two samples of statements with different melodies. Question-and-answer games can serve this purpose.
The most difficult are tasks for the perception of phrases with a change in the melodic pattern (the voice first rises and then falls). In the process of perceiving this speech material, children are first invited, conducting with their hands, to show changes in the melody, and then lay out on the tables a diagram of two cards with arrows (games "Questions", "Question mark", "Let's call together", "Request", " Balloon").
Pace. With the development of the perception of this intonational component, it may be necessary to carry out preliminary work: to acquaint children with the concepts of "fast", "slow", "moderately". First, contrasting tempo patterns are introduced: "fast" and "slow", after mastering them, a moderate tempo pattern is offered. Rhymes, sayings can serve as speech material. Initially, children develop the ability to subordinate the speed of their own movements to the pace specified in the speech sample, for example, they are asked to perform a series of claps, jumps, and wave their hands at the pace with which the teacher reads poetic texts. If an adult speeds up speech (goes from a slow pace to a fast or moderate one), then children should also speed up their movements (for example, the games "Carousels", "Hen and Chickens", "Drummer").
A more difficult task: after listening to a speech sample, say at what pace it is pronounced: "quickly", "slowly" or "moderately". To successfully memorize terms, you can use special symbols: a green circle means "fast", a yellow circle means "moderately", a red circle means "slowly" (for example, in the game "Autumn Leaves"). As children master these concepts, the use of visual supports stops.
Rhythm. Children can be offered to clap the rhythm of first syllable series pronounced by the teacher (Ta-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, etc.), then poems having a two-syllable (iamb, trochee) or three-syllable (dactyl) rhythmic structure. If such tasks turn out to be difficult for children, first you can work on highlighting the accented shares against the background of sounding of equal strength (work on an unexpected accent). The skills of perceiving this accent can be fixed in motor actions (games "Teasing Tongues", "Buffoons-Cockerels" - hereinafter see the appendix).
1 Iambic - in versification - a two-syllable foot with an emphasis on the second syllable, for example: "Winter! The peasant, triumphant, / Renews the path on the firewood." Yamb wrote "Eugene Onegin" A.S. Pushkin.
Chorey - a two-syllable foot with an emphasis on the first syllable, for example: "A storm covers the sky with darkness, / Whirlwinds of snow are twisting" (A.S. Pushkin).
2 Dactyl - a three-syllable foot with an accent on the first syllable, for example: "Heavenly clouds, eternal wanderers!" (M.Yu. Lermontov).
In the future, you can move on to practicing the skills of perceiving a uniformly repeating accent and rhythmic patterns. In this case, not only motor actions are used, but also the compilation of various visual-visual schemes. For example, in the games "Kingles and balls", "Patterns", the teacher and children agree that some objects will indicate strong blows, while others will be weak. After that, the adult slaps a certain rhythm (two-part, four-part or three-part), and the children draw up its scheme, trying to convey the corresponding rhythmic patterns through the alternation of objects. The rhythm can be set by the teacher in the form of claps, drum beats, musical passages, a series of syllables, short poems, etc.
Timbre. The formation of timbre perception skills should begin with the acquaintance of children with two contrasting voice colors: joyful and sad. This will subsequently become the basis for the introduction of less contrasting in timbre emotional manifestations: anger, surprise, fright, etc.
At the same time, pictograms, photographs depicting emotionally expressive faces can be used as visual material; as speech material - texts and phrases. It should be borne in mind that the analysis of individual phrases is more complex than the analysis of phrases in context.
Also used are "problem speech stories" related to the plots of literary works or the personal experience of children. Such "stories" should have a plot that can be understood by preschoolers, a detailed description of the circumstances (which will allow the child to vividly and clearly imagine himself in the place of her heroes), but not contain expressive-emotional vocabulary that could serve as a hint. When introducing children to the situation, you can give the following instruction: "Now I will tell you one story. And you choose the card (pictogram) that best suits the story." Let's give examples of "problem speech stories".
"Slava loves animals very much. He has long wanted to visit the zoo. But mom and dad work a lot, and they have no time. Grandma came to Slava. Slava and grandma went to the zoo." (Joy.)
“Winnie the Pooh was sitting at home and eating his favorite honey. But out of nowhere a bee appeared and began to buzz loudly. The bee sat on Winnie the Pooh’s head, on his nose, on a pot of honey. behind her with a newspaper. He hit with a swing, the honey pot swayed, fell from the table to the floor and broke. And the bee flew away ... ". (Irritation, anger.)
After preschoolers determine the emotional coloring of phrases with the help of cards, the task can be complicated: ask them to describe the emotional state of the main characters in words.
In addition to listening to "problem speech stories", children can be offered the games "Who is afraid of vaccinations?", "Guess", etc.
These exercise games also enrich the emotional and expressive vocabulary and develop children's speech hearing.
logical stress. The work begins with an acquaintance with this concept, with a clarification of the sound means of its expression (usually in an utterance, a stressed word is logically distinguished by its louder and more intense pronunciation or quiet and stretched). They explain to preschoolers: those words that are considered especially important are pronounced louder and (or) slower (stretched) than the rest of the words in the sentence.
When listening to words that carry logical stress, it is very important to draw the attention of children to the meaning of each phrase and organize the analysis and evaluation of the text. When doing exercises, you should:
- listen to the speech material and name the word-carrier of logical stress, explain why this word is highlighted;
- listen to speech material; when it is repeated, having heard the highlighted word, clap your hands (stomp, sit down, etc.); explain why this word is highlighted;
- listen to speech material; when playing it again, choose from a set of pictures and show the one that depicts the word carrier of logical stress; explain why this word is highlighted.
For example, the teacher pronounces the phrase "Bullfinches peck rowan" and organizes its analysis:
What word did I highlight as the most important? Yes, I told you that it is bullfinches, and not other birds, that peck rowan.
- Listen, as I say now: "Bullfinches peck mountain ash." What did I clarify about snowmen? (That they are pecking, and not sitting or flying.) How did I say an important word in meaning? (You said this word loudly.) Yes, and you can also say quietly and stretched out, like this: "Bullfinches peck rowan."
- Listen again: "Bullfinches peck rowan." What have I now clarified about bullfinches? (They eat mountain ash, not grain or bread crumbs.) How did I highlight the important word? (They said it at length.) And how else can you distinguish? (Say it loudly.) You are right, but I deliberately uttered an important word quietly and drawn out so as not to frighten off the bullfinches.
As can be seen from this example, in case of difficulty, children can be helped in the form of leading questions, reminded of the means of expressing logical stress in oral speech.
Both individual phrases and familiar connected texts, small in volume, can serve as speech material for exercises. The use of unfamiliar texts will significantly complicate the performance of tasks, and when analyzing individual phrases, a single reproduction of the sample.
In the work on the development of the perception of logical stress, you can use the games "Listen, think, name", "Find an important word".

Second phase
Melodica.
The formation of melodic reproduction skills begins with the repetition of a series of syllables and phrases after the teacher. Later, it is proposed to pronounce syllables and phrases without a sample (the arrows depicted on the cards or the conducting technique are used - see the first stage of work).
The performance of such tasks is organically woven into the structure of classes for the development of speech. For example, when automating the pronunciation of the sound [p], you can play the game "Tigers". Tiger cubs speak with a tiger mother (teacher) in tiger language:
- Rarora? Mom asks.
- Rarory, - the children answer.
- Rarora? the children ask.
“Rarory,” Mom replies.
Then you can offer games in which quasi-words (syllables devoid of meaning) are replaced by phrases and phrases. So in a playful way, the teacher not only reinforces the correct pronunciation of sounds, but also, by setting samples of melodic patterns of phrases, forms the skills of reproducing melodics with a decrease or increase in the fundamental tone.
Games in a question-answer form are also used to consolidate generalizing concepts, for example, "vegetables". In the Dunno game, the teacher (and then one of the children) takes out objects from the bag (models of vegetables, doll plastic utensils, furniture, toys, etc.) and asks (training an ascending melodic pattern): “Is this a vegetable?” . Children respond (individually or in chorus) with a full sentence (drilling the descending melodic pattern): "It's not a vegetable, but..." or "Yes, it's a vegetable."
In case of difficulty, the teacher can give a speech pattern of ascending or descending melody, and then offer the child to repeat the given phrase, saying only the beginning of it with him. The use of the conducting technique will greatly facilitate the fulfillment of tasks.
Pace. The formation of skills and abilities to arbitrarily change the tempo of their speech is based on the experience of perceiving and distinguishing patterns of speech tempo acquired by children at the first stage of work. First, tasks are given in which any actions or sounds act as a regulator of the speech rate (at this stage it is better to use automated speech formulas: recalculation from 1 to 5 or 10, listing the days of the week, etc.). For example, a teacher strikes a tambourine, changing the tempo of beats from slow to fast. At the same time, the children count the beats according to the given tempo. In the future, the child repeats the speech pattern given at a certain pace.
It will be more difficult for preschoolers to pronounce phrases without a sample, but in accordance with the instructions: "Tell a nursery rhyme (patter) quickly (slowly)." The skill is fixed in games-exercises for subordinating the tempo of movements and the tempo of speech (“Let's go, let's go”, etc.).
Children experience the greatest difficulties, as a rule, when the tempo of speech changes from slow to fast (or vice versa) in one speech segment. Auxiliary means for the formation of this skill can be visual supports. For example, a teacher lays out identical geometric shapes in a row at different distances from one another. The child is invited, pronouncing the phrases, on each word to successively close the figures with the palm of his hand. If the figures are located close to each other, the text is pronounced at a fast pace, if far away - at a slow pace.
Rhythm. When mastering the rhythmic component of intonation, vowel sounds, syllables, lines from poems, nursery rhymes with a clear two-syllable rhythmic pattern (iamb, trochee) serve as speech material. The speech sample is given by the teacher, and the children reproduce it. In case of difficulty, preschoolers, listening to speech samples, can make visual-visual schemes, which will later serve as a support for pronouncing the speech material. At the same time, children are first given tasks to reproduce accented and non-accented parts (i.e., stressed and unstressed syllables), which are indicated on the diagrams by large and small details of the designer. Children, listening to the sample, make up its visual-visual scheme on their tables. After the teacher checks the correctness of the drawn up scheme, the child pronounces the speech material based on it, reinforcing his speech with the appropriate hand movement. For example, covering a large part of the designer with his palm, the child pronounces the syllable loudly, emphasizing it, closing a small part, pronounces the syllable more quietly.
Similarly, work is being done to form the skill of conveying the duration and brevity of pronouncing syllables, which are indicated on the diagrams by long and short strips of paper. So, children, moving their fingers along a long strip, draw syllables for a long time; putting a finger on a short strip, they pronounce the syllable briefly, abruptly (see the game "Tracks"). To form this skill, you can also use "motor modeling": a long syllable is indicated by spreading the arms to the sides, a short one - by clapping above the head.
Gradually, the need to use auxiliary means (visual-visual schemes, conducting techniques) disappears.
Timbre. The essence of the work on the formation of timbre reproduction skills is to consolidate the ability to change the color of the voice when conveying feelings and emotions: joy, sadness, surprise, etc. At first, the children repeat speech patterns after the teacher in chorus and individually. In the future, they perform exercises without a sample. The same visual material is used as in the first stage of work. The teacher shows pictures or pictograms depicting the faces of people in a particular emotional state and asks to pronounce one (pre-selected) phrase in the voice of each character. In addition, he offers story pictures depicting a problem situation. Preschoolers should conduct a dialogue on behalf of the depicted characters (say hello, answer questions, exchange remarks), independently choosing an adequate timbre coloring of the voice. To successfully complete tasks, children need to analyze the image, correlate the facial expressions of the characters with their emotional state, and choose the timbre of the voice that is appropriate for this situation. If necessary, you can discuss in more detail with the child the emotional state and features of the timbre of the voice of a particular character.
logical emphasis. The formation of the skill of using logical stress in one's own speech is based on its allocation in the speech of the interlocutor and consists of such components as the ability to independently determine the word that should be highlighted, since it carries a large semantic load, and the possession of ways to highlight it: speak louder or quieter, stretched out.
The work begins with the development of methods for isolating words-carriers of logical stress based on the speech pattern of the teacher and should be carried out sequentially, taking into account the phonetic and grammatical complexity of the speech material: first in phrases, then in simple common two-part sentences. The acquired skills are consolidated in games that involve independent speech of children: “Who lives in what house?”, “What did you buy in the store?”, “Constructions” (carried out in a question-answer form). The question of the teacher guides the child to the choice of the word-carrier of logical stress, and the game situation helps to determine why this particular word should be considered the most important in meaning.
The listed games can be included in classes for the development of speech, since they contain the possibility of enriching the vocabulary, clarifying grammatical structures. For example, in the game “What did you buy in the store?” the skills of reproducing logical stress in simple two-part sentences and using the genitive case form of nouns are being improved. The teacher places small toys on the display shelves and asks to remember them. Then the children close their eyes, and the teacher removes one item and offers to guess what they bought. Answering, preschoolers formulate a complete answer and voice the name of the subject that has disappeared.
It is also necessary to differentiate the ways of highlighting “important” words, since, depending on the meaning of the phrase, loud pronunciation is not always justified. For example, a child who has highlighted the carrier word of a logical stress in a loud voice can be asked to pronounce it quietly (stretched) and determine the most successful way of highlighting.
The main means of synthesizing all acquired skills is learning dialogues, consisting of short replicas, saturated with expression, and staging fairy tales and stories.
So, to consolidate the distinction between the melody of declarative and interrogative sentences, as well as the skills of tempo-rhythmic organization of speech, timbre coloring, you can use short stories: “The Bear” (according to G. Vier), “Visiting the Queen” (according to S. Marshak), "Magpie and the Bear" (according to N. Sladkov).
To automate the skills of differentiating interrogative and exclamatory sentences, the following dialogues and plots can be role-played: “The Stork and the Frog” (according to S. Mikhalkov), “About the Beauty and the Rat” (according to M. Godovanets), “The Fox and the Rooster” (according to the fairy tale S. Marshak "Teremok"), "The Bear and the Sun" (according to N. Sladkov), etc.
Dramatization games are carried out according to the traditional plan: acquaintance with the content of the text, distribution of roles, selection or manufacture of equipment and costumes. When learning replicas in a question-answer form, it is necessary to identify what character traits are inherent in each character, what expressive movements should be, and most importantly, the intonation of the characters.
The presence of spectators during dramatizations increases the motivation of children and makes them want to play their part better. Therefore, one group of preschoolers shows a sketch, and the second one watches. Then they switch roles.

Master class for teachers of the preschool educational institution "Formation of intonational expressiveness of speech"

The objectives of our master class:
- to clarify the theoretical foundations of the formation of expressiveness of speech;
- to consolidate the skills of forming expressive speech in a practical way.
Even in ancient times, before the appearance of speech as a means of communication, people tried to convey information using screams, sounds of various heights and strengths, gestures and facial expressions.
Question: Tell me, please, what is mimicry?
Facial expressions (Greek - imitator) - expressive movements of the muscles of the face, which are one of the forms of manifestation of certain feelings, moods of a person, one of the auxiliary ways of communicating people. Accompanying speech, facial expressions contribute to expressiveness.
I suggest you remember what emotions we can express with the help of facial expressions: you have cubes with clean edges, write or draw, please, different emotions on each of the faces.
Further: Gesture (from Latin gestus - body movement) - some action or movement of the human body or part of it, which has a certain meaning or meaning, that is, it is a sign or symbol.
Bernard Shaw said: “Although the written art is very diverse grammatically, it is completely helpless when it comes to intonation. So, for example, there are 50 ways to say yes and 500 ways to say no. While you can write these words only once.
Exercise: Please show with gestures the signals written on your cards:
I have free time;
I'm going to help;
I have a question;
Allow me to pass.
Next exercise:
Pass this pencil to each other, using only facial expressions and gestures, as if it were:

Magic world of sounds

Intonation always lies on the border of the verbal

and nonverbal, spoken and unsaid.

M. Bakhtin

When we speak, we set ourselves certain tasks: to convince the interlocutor of something, to tell something, to ask about something. In order to better convey your thoughts to the listener, you need to take care of the logical expressiveness of speech.

Intonation has always been recognized as the most important element of oral verbal communication, a means of forming any word and a combination of words in an utterance, a means of clarifying its communicative meaning and emotionally expressive shades. The components of intonation are melody, phrasal stress, tempo, timbre and pause, which, interacting with each other, perform various functions in speech, the most important of which are communicative, meaningful and emotionally expressive (Bondarko L.V., 1991; Zinder L.R. ., 1979; Svetozarova N.D., 1982).

The correct use of intonation in speech allows not only to accurately convey the meaning of the statement, but also to actively affect the listener emotionally and aesthetically. With the help of intonation, the speaker and the listener single out the statement and its semantic parts in the flow of speech. They oppose the statement according to the goal (question, narration, expression of will), express and perceive the subjective attitude to what was said (Bryzgunova E.A., 1963).

The concept of intonation consists of successive changes in pitch (melody), voice strength (sound intensity), intra-phrase pauses (logical and semantic), tempo (accelerated or slow) in the pronunciation of words and phrases, rhythm (combinations of strong and weak, long and short syllables) , timbre (aesthetic coloring) of sound.

Logical expressiveness is the most important condition for any kind of speech. This includes the following aspects.

Melody - alternation of raising and lowering the voice, depending on the meaning of the statement (question, statement, exclamation). Each phrase has its own melodic pattern.

Logical stress - highlighting the main word in the meaning of the phrase. Stands out - this means it is pronounced with more force and duration than the rest of the words in the sentence. The logical center can be any word in the sentence, depending on what the speaker wants to emphasize.

A logical pause is the division of a phrase into semantic segments. Each speech measure (syntagma) is separated from another by stops of different duration and fullness, which in the texts of exercises are indicated by symbols that usually coincide with punctuation marks, namely:

A short pause for air intake - a comma sign;

A pause between speech measures - a sign "slash";

The pause between sentences is longer - the sign "two slashes";

A pause to indicate semantic and plot pieces is the sign "three slashes".

It is important not only to understand the meaning of pauses, but, most importantly, to accustom yourself to making actual stops.

The rhythm of speech is determined to a large extent by the rhythm of breathing. Respiratory movements are rhythmic, uniform in nature, with the correct alternation of the phases of the respiratory cycle in duration and depth. At the same time, inhalation is shorter than exhalation, which is important for speech and voice formation and speaking itself. A change in the rhythm of breathing entails a change in the rhythm of speaking. The rhythm of breathing dictates the limit of the possible lengthening of the exhalation, this limit is determined by the individual vital capacity of the lungs.

Intellectual adjustment, the predetermination of the structure of the utterance as a whole usually do not allow the speaker to break with a breath words, phrases connected by a strong semantic-syntactic connection.

Thus, the rhythm of breathing, not by itself, but in interaction with the intellectual factor, determines and regulates the rhythm of speech. Individual fluctuations in the natural rhythms of breathing in different people determine the variety of rhythms of colloquial speech.

“Letters, syllables and words,” writes K.S. Stanislavsky, are musical notes in speech, from which bars, arias, whole symphonies are created. It is not for nothing that good speech is called "musical". Calling for the observance of tempo-rhythm in speech, he recommends: “Form whole speech measures from phrases, adjust the rhythmic ratio of whole phrases to each other, love correct and clear accentuations (stresses. - I.P.), typical of experienced feelings.

Intonation exercises

Work on intonation is carried out on the material of sounds, words, sentences, short texts, poems.

The main element of exercises 1-5 (according to the system of V.V. Emelyanov) is the development of a “sliding” ascending () and descending (↓) intonation with a characteristic “break” of the voice from the chest to the head sound (register) and vice versa.

Legend:

U - low chest sound;

y - high head sound;

Exercise 1.

When pronouncing a sequence of vowel sounds, reproduce a surprised question - bewilderment (rising intonation) and an exclamation in response (descending intonation). Make the sound simultaneously with a soft exhalation.

Exercise 2.

Make a light high sound, then, without interrupting the exhalation, convey a descending intonation with the same sound in your voice. Remember the nature of the sound.

Repeat the exercise.

By analogy, do the exercise with other vowels.

Exercise 3

Pronounce the combinations of vowels in succession, each on a separate exhalation, in a low, chesty voice, as if you were telling a scary tale.

S, YE, YEA, YEAO, YEAOU.

Exercise 4

In a continuous line of sound, highlight the intonational vowel sound by slightly raising or lowering your voice, smoothly merging it with subsequent sounds.

(question) (answer) (question) (answer), etc.

Model a dialogue in which one phrase must be pronounced with a question intonation, and the other with an affirmative intonation.
