Guidelines

Preschool age, as is known, is a period of intensive development of the child, and timely acquisition of correct speech is one of the main conditions for normal psychophysical development, the formation of a full-fledged personality and preparation for school.

Speech, in all its diversity, is a necessary component of communication, during which it is, in fact, formed. The process of speech development involves mastering not only the content, but also the figurative, emotional side of the language. A person must master the intonation richness of the language, which is important not only for the formation of a culture of speech, but also for a culture of communication. Therefore, it is very important to begin work on the formation of intonation expressiveness of speech in preschool age, since this work stimulates the development of coherent speech and allows one to avoid such shortcomings of utterance as unclear diction, monotony, and undifferentiated speech that affect the understanding of the content and emotional meaning of the utterance.

In modern speech therapy practice, one of the pressing problems for preschool children is the correction of violations of the prosodic side of speech with erased dysarthria. Unintelligible speech with dysarthria is caused by a disorder of articulation, impaired speech breathing, and voice formation. The prosodic side of speech also suffers, that is, the strength of the voice, tempo, rhythm, intonation and expressiveness.

The relevance of the formation of the main components of the prosodic aspect of speech in preschoolers as a prerequisite for successful schooling is beyond doubt. Insufficient development of the prosodic side of speech in preschool age causes difficulties in communicating with others, and in the future entails certain personality changes, i.e. leads to the emergence of complexes in children, preventing them from learning and fully revealing their abilities and intellectual capabilities.

Education of rhythm and intonation is not only a problem of improving the expressiveness of speech itself - rich rhythmic speech contributes to the overall mental development of the child and facilitates learning. A child with expressive speech feels more relaxed and confident in any environment, thanks to the fact that he can express thoughts and feelings through adequate means and show his creative individuality.

As a rule, children master intonation expressiveness naturally. But as speech therapy examination shows, preschoolers with speech disorders have disturbances in the processes of perception and reproduction of intonation structures. They do not realize the importance of intonation in conveying the meaning of statements and their attitude to what is happening.

Correctional work with such children on the formation of the prosodic side of speech should combine activities aimed at developing speech breathing, rhythm, tempo, strength and modulation of the voice. And also on the formation of perception and reproduction of basic intonation types, the development of the child’s emotional responsiveness and the ability to convey certain feelings and moods using intonation.

Games and exercises to develop voice power

1. “Calm the doll”

Goal: development of voice power.

Description of the game: children sit on chairs in a semicircle. They have dolls in their hands. The teacher says: “The dolls are crying, we need to calm them down. Look how I put the doll to sleep (rocks the doll, humming softly on the sound a

motive of a familiar lullaby).
Now you shake it.” Children take turns and then rock the dolls together, pronouncing the sound a .
2. "Blizzard"

Goal: development of voice strength and speech breathing. Activation of the lip muscles.

Equipment: story picture “Blizzard”.

Description of the game: the teacher shows a picture of a blizzard. Children sitting in a row depict a blizzard howling on a stormy evening. At the signal from the teacher, “The blizzard is beginning,” they quietly say: oooh...;

at the signal “The blizzard is ending” they speak more quietly; at the signal “The blizzard is over” they fall silent. It is advisable that children change the strength of their voice at least 2-3 times in one exhalation. In this case, it is more convenient to replace the teacher’s verbal instructions with conducting: a smooth movement of the hand up - the children speak louder, a smooth movement of the hand down - the children speak more quietly.

  1. "Beep"

Goal: same as in the previous game.

Description of the game: children stand in a row facing the teacher and raise their arms up from the sides, touching with their palms, but do not clap. Then slowly lower it down through the sides. Simultaneously with lowering their hands, children pronounce the sound u

loudly at first, and then gradually quieter. They lower their hands and fall silent.

First, the teacher himself shows the actions, then calls two children who perform the actions together with him and pronounce the sound, the rest of the children only make movements with their hands. Then the whole group plays.

4. “Who wins?”

Goal: development of voice strength and speech breathing. Activation of the muscles of the lips and lower jaw.

Description of the game: the teacher calls two children and puts them facing each other. At the teacher’s signal, the children simultaneously begin to draw out, first quietly, then loudly, the vowel sounds a, o, u, i, e.

  1. "The wind blows"

Goal: development of voice strength and speech breathing.

Description of the game: children and teacher stand in a circle. The teacher says: “We went for a walk in the forest in the summer.” Everyone joins hands and leads a round dance, and the teacher continues: “We are walking through the field, the sun is shining, a light breeze is blowing and the grass and flowers are swaying.” The teacher and children stop. “The wind blows quietly, like this: v-v-v

(pronounces the sound c quietly and for a long time).
The children repeat after him. Then the movement of the round dance continues under the leisurely speech of the teacher: “We came to the forest. We picked a lot of flowers and berries. We got ready to go back. Suddenly a strong wind blew: v-v-v...”
- the teacher pronounces this sound loudly and for a long time. Children stop and repeat the sound after the teacher. Methodological instruction: the teacher makes sure that the children, repeating after him, maintain the same strength of voice.

Description: the teacher asks to read an encrypted letter and presents the children with one card. The first character (noun-drawing) is shown first, while the remaining characters are covered with thick paper. Since the children do not know the encrypted phrase, the teacher asks them to name each word with a questioning intonation, i.e. with increasing melody. Then the next symbol (arrow) is shown, the children select a verb that is suitable in meaning (it is advisable to listen to several guesses) and pronounce two words together, but the melody increases already on the second word. This happens until all the symbols are opened, after which the entire phrase is pronounced in its entirety in accordance with the punctuation mark.

  1. "Bear Cubs"

Goal: to consolidate the ability to arbitrarily change the timbre of the voice.

Psychomotor development occurs in close connection with motor development.

This connection is so strong that mental development disorders create a variety of relationships with motor disorders. Therefore, the motor skills of children with this speech diagnosis are characterized by a lack of voluntary movements and poor switching from one movement to another. The sequence of movements, their accuracy, proportionality and smoothness, that is, coordination, is difficult.

I would also like to note that such children also experience problems in the fact that during classes they are motorically disinhibited, restless, often distracted and restless.

expressive side of speech

Goal: alternately highlighting words with intonation at the beginning, middle and end of a sentence.

Description: reading tongue twisters should begin at a slow pace, while clearly pronouncing each word. Gradually speed up the pace, but make sure that the child maintains clarity, clarity of pronunciation and maintains the necessary intonation.

Development of the prosodic aspect of speech in preschool children with rhinolalia

The article discusses issues of speech impairment due to rhinolalia. A methodology for working on the voice with children with rhinoplasty is proposed, in the form of a set of exercises that teachers can use in their work.

Rhinolalia (Greek rhinos - nose, lalia - speech) is a violation of the timbre of the voice and sound pronunciation, caused by anatomical and physiological defects of the speech apparatus.

Rhinolalia is characterized by the presence of an altered nasal (from Latin nasus - nose) timbre of the voice, resulting from excessive or insufficient resonance in the nasal cavity during speech.

Such a violation of resonance occurs from the incorrect direction of the vocal-exhalatory stream due to either organic defects of the nasopharynx, nasal cavity, soft and hard palate, or disorders of the soft palate.

Speech disorders with congenital cleft of the hard and soft palate are manifested by a more complex syndrome, including general speech underdevelopment, rhinolalia and rhinophonia. In addition, such children have impaired ventilation of the lungs, general physical weakness and fear of speech. Quite often, concomitant hearing loss is detected. A natural consequence of a defect in the hard and soft palate is difficulty swallowing when eating.

With rhinolalia, speech develops late (the first words appear by two years and much later) and has qualitative features.

Impressive speech develops relatively normally, while expressive speech undergoes some qualitative changes. [1]

First of all, it should be noted that the children’s speech is extremely slurred. The words and phrases that appear in them are difficult to understand for those around them, since the sounds that are formed are unique in articulation and sound. Due to the defective position of the tongue in the oral cavity, consonant sounds are formed mainly due to changes in the position of the tip of the tongue (with little participation of the tongue root in articulation) with excessive activation of the facial muscles.

Prosody in children with congenital cleft lip and palate is sharply reduced. The voice suffers, vocal modulations in height and strength, speech exhalation is weakened. The timbre of speech is disrupted and a nasal tone appears, and the rate of speech is often accelerated. Voice disorder in rhinolalia is multifaceted. The leading one is a change in the timbre of the voice - nasalization (unpleasant nasal resonance, giving a blurred, dull sound to all speech. Lack of differentiation between the nasal and oral cavities. It significantly changes the acoustic characteristics of phonemes, the voice becomes monotonous, unflying, weak, deaf and compressed.

In general, children's voices are characterized by weakness, monotony and hoarseness. (Solomatina). When reciting poems, the child’s speech is monotonous, gradually becomes less intelligible, and the voice fades away. The voice during speech is quiet, modulation in pitch and strength of the voice is not possible (the child cannot change the pitch of the voice by imitation, imitating the voices of animals: cows, dogs). Some children have a shortened speech exhalation, and they speak while inhaling. In this case, speech becomes choked. Quite often, children with good self-control are identified who, when examining their speech, do not show deviations in sound pronunciation, since they pronounce words chanting, that is, syllable by syllable, and only prosody violations come first. [2]

Correction and development of the prosodic side of speech in complex speech therapy is important; the main objectives of these activities are the development of the natural voice data of children with rhinoplasty, normalization of the timbre and strength of the voice, as well as the development of correct voice skills.

Measures that help improve the voice of children with rhinoplasty before plastic surgery of the palate include physiological and phonation (speech) breathing, prevention of degeneration of the muscles of the pharynx and palate, and correction of sound pronunciation. After the operation, work on the voice consists of breathing exercises that lengthen exhalation and activate the internal intercostal muscles and mobility of the diaphragm, strengthening the velopharyngeal closure, and developing the skill of correct voice production. [3]

The proposed method of working on the voice with children with rhinoplasty, in the form of a set of exercises, was developed on the basis of methods by such authors as I.I. Ermakova, E.E. Shevtsova, L.V. Zabrodina, E.A. Soboleva G.N. Solomatin and V.M. Vodolatsky, L.I. Belyakova, N.N. Goncharova, T.G. Shishkova.

Work in the postoperative period includes 2 stages, which must take place in strict sequence. The duration of each stage is determined by the results of the work. Training is carried out using various methodological techniques: games, imitative-performing, creative exercises, as well as observation, examination of paintings and drawings.

At stage 1, work is carried out to develop correct speech breathing; this stage is basic. Children learn how to inhale and exhale correctly. First, work is done on differentiated exhalation (inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth; inhale through the mouth, exhale through the nose). Then children with rhinolalia practice the ability to inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth. For this purpose, exercises “Candle”, “Wind”, “Porridge”, “Blind”, “Fish” are used, aimed at developing prolonged exhalation through the mouth.

After breathing exercises, a set of exercises is carried out for several weeks according to the author’s method of developing speech breathing, proposed by L.I. Belyakova, N.N. Goncharova, T.G. Shishkova. Training using this method allows children with rhinolalia to normalize their voice, intonation expressiveness of speech in general, and also contributes to the correct programming of speech utterances.

Work on breathing includes 3 sets of exercises aimed at developing nasal inhalation, phonation exhalation and correct speech breathing.

At stage 2, vocal exercises are performed with children, which give the best effect in solving the main task - the development of mobility of the velum. The use of vocal exercises in training is based on the close connection between the soft palate and the larynx.

Vocal exercises stretch the velum, disinhibit and simultaneously activate all the muscles of the larynx and pharynx, force the child to open his mouth wider and increase the strength of sound.

The methodology for conducting phonopedic exercises and their sequence for rhinolalia have a number of features.

At stage 2, these exercises are reduced to singing vowels: at the beginning of the sounds A, E, after 2 - 3 lessons O, I, U are added. To expand the range, increase the strength of the voice, and develop intonation, the exercises are modified: they change the key, sing quietly and loudly. When performing vocal exercises correctly, the nasal tint in singing initially decreases significantly and gradually disappears completely.

After activating the velopharyngeal closure, establishing diaphragmatic-costal breathing and mastering the ability to pronounce vowels without a nasal tint, the voices move on to exercises to develop the skill of correct voice production, expand the range, increase the strength of the voice and finally remove nasality.

The number of vowels in combination gradually increases to three sounds. When practicing pronouncing vowel sounds, there is no need to follow the given order of sounds. The speech therapist himself selects the combinations necessary for the sound composition.

Pronunciation of vowels is carried out in a certain order with a focus on the degree of elevation and tension of the velum palatine. It is important to draw the child’s attention to the wide opening of the mouth, the movement of the tip of the tongue forward to the lower incisors, to the sensation of opening the pharynx and correct, relaxed phonation. For children with a healthy vocal apparatus, several sessions of teaching correct phonation may be sufficient. Once children have a kinesthetic sense and can differentiate the correct phonation by ear, they will be able to build on it in all subsequent exercises to expand the range and increase the strength of the voice.

Then they move on to “mooing” - a drawn-out pronunciation of the sound M with fixation of attention on the nasal resonance of the consonant (children sometimes tend to replace nasal M, N with oral B, D after surgery).

The choice of phoneme M as the initial one for voice production in phonopedic practice is determined by its physiological basis, convenient for correct phonation. It is characterized by slight tension, pronounced resonance of the nasal and accessory cavities, which ultimately activates the functioning of the vocal apparatus. When pronouncing M with closed lips, lowered root of the tongue and a small gap between the teeth, the sound can be easily produced “into the mask”. Initially, the phoneme is pronounced briefly, but gradually the sound is lengthened.

After the child learns to pronounce the phoneme M without tension in the tone of voice that is most comfortable and natural for him, they begin to pronounce open syllables with the sound M together, relying on this sound: MA, MO, MU, ME, WE. Exercise 6-8 times a day immediately after short pronouncing M three times. [3]

Health-saving technologies in speech therapy

For corrective work on impaired prosody, speech therapy uses health-saving technologies. They are widely used in preschool educational institutions and other institutions involved in improving speech disorders, as they comply with the Federal State Educational Standard. The very definition of the “preserve health” method means the use of various types of vigorous activity:

  • breathing exercises;
  • eye exercises;
  • articulatory gymnastics;
  • the main component is logorhythmics.

Lithotherapy in speech therapy

According to the dictionary, lithotherapy in speech therapy is an unconventional way of treating speech disorders using stones, sand, and clay. The main examples of treatment using lithotherapy for speech underdevelopment:

  • finger massage while squeezing and rolling stones in your hands;
  • laying out patterns from stones and sand;
  • burying stones in the sand;
  • speech therapy exercises using stones.

Techniques for correcting speech expressiveness deficiencies

The famous professor L. S. Volkova and associate professor R. I. Lalaeva, who have many diplomas in speech therapy and lecture on this topic, have developed a method for correcting speech expressiveness disorders. This structural work is a good assistant for specialists involved in the elimination of speech underdevelopment. According to Volkova, the main areas of activity of a speech therapist teacher include the following:

  • distinguishing intonation of separately expressive and impressive speech;
  • speech breathing exercises;
  • exercises for rhythm and tempo of voice;
  • distinguishing tone in statements, questions and exclamations;
  • work on the strength and range of your voice;
  • exercises with logical stress.

The prosodic side of speech in speech therapy means its expressiveness. In preschool age, most often, disorders occur in prosody. There is no way to correct a conversational underdevelopment overnight. This is a rather lengthy and complex process. But with proper and comprehensive treatment, it can be corrected.

General description of the program

“Games for Tigers” is a comprehensive program for the development of basic speech skills and the elimination of speech defects for children 5-9 years old.

It was created using a unique methodology developed by candidates of pedagogical sciences, experienced methodologists and researchers L.R. Lizunova and Z.A. Repina.

The classes are designed in an easy, fun and child-friendly manner. He will be happy to get acquainted with the bright land of sounds, and with his beloved assistant he will explore a new world full of adventures and interesting discoveries.

The program includes complex and varied games. The child learns to correctly pronounce individual sounds, develops speech breathing and vocal modalities (pitch, timbre), and also learns the basics of grammar and vocabulary.

The result of working on the methodological manual is purity of speech, which includes pronunciation, the use of correct grammatical structures and suitable words, and the ability to express one’s thoughts.

Problems that can be solved with the help of “Games for Tigers”:

  • dysarthria
  • dyslapia
  • stuttering
  • rhinolapia
  • secondary speech disorders

Such classes are intended for children 5-6 years old, as well as for primary school students. It is recommended that they be carried out with an experienced speech therapist, but parents can also use the CD and manual “Games for Tigers”.

The entire methodological complex includes 50 lessons, which are collected by topic into four separate blocks: “Phonematics”, “Pronunciation of sounds”, “Prosody”, “Vocabulary”.
