DIY speech corner
A manual made with your own hands, supplemented, expanded to suit the needs of children and the goals of the lessons, will always be of much greater value and will make learning more effective and efficient.
In preschool age, the predominant type of activity is play, so the materials presented provide the opportunity to perform exercises in the form of a fun game that solves serious problems. The creation of the presented manuals allows children to independently or with the help of an adult perform exercises that develop fine motor skills,
phonemic hearing, as well as consolidate acquired knowledge in the classroom.
Didactic manual "House"
As you know, the development of speech is closely related to the development of fine motor skills, so speech corners are necessarily supplemented with the necessary aids for this: lacing, massage balls, su-jok balls, etc.
Boards for the development of fine motor skills are also found in speech therapy practice, but more often they are an open version, and if they have closed holes, then with the least functionality, because often only a picture follows the door, and besides, the open versions of such boards are less aesthetically pleasing. This “House” manual is made mostly of plywood to lighten the structure, and for strength and ease of fastening the parts with fasteners, stiffening ribs were used, and there are hooks on the back panel to securely fasten the manual to the wall. Closed elements add not only aesthetics to the manual and a surprise moment for the child, but also, among other things, allow you to save space, since various elements are located not on one long panel, but on two (external and internal), and the most functional one is neatly “hidden” " The manual attracts the child's interest and includes many different devices for the development of fine motor skills of a preschooler. “House” is a simulator for developing fine motor skills through various manipulations with a switch, socket, latch, lock, door chain, door hook, lids, and doorbell. The presented elements are interesting to the child because they are encountered in his life every day without a playful orientation. Here it is possible to carry out repeated manipulations without damaging household items, at the same time developing dexterity of the fingers, and the acquired muscle memory will be very relevant in everyday life. In addition, fine motor skills develop, and for children with speech pathology this is especially important (accuracy, speed and coordination of movements suffer, mainly in children with dysarthria). This means that speech develops indirectly and directly, because you can play not only on your own, training your fingers, but also with a teacher, pronouncing your actions, choosing the necessary antonym, listening and following instructions.
Didactic manual “Snail”
Speech therapy snails and their variants have become firmly established in the everyday use of speech therapists and educators in classes on speech development and automation of sound pronunciation.
My manual, having absorbed the positive qualities of such didactic materials, is distinguished by the natural raw materials from which it is made. In addition, the presence and sufficient number of medium-sized pockets, and this already solves the problem of selecting the necessary painting material without special material costs. Mobility, a variety of cards on lexical topics, and the ability to be included in individual and group lessons make this manual multifunctional. This didactic manual solves the following correctional and educational tasks: to teach to form generalizing concepts on various topics, to consolidate and expand the vocabulary on the same lexical topics.
Correction and development tasks:
- develop sound-letter analysis skills, generalization and systematization skills;
- automate the sounds in words;
- develop coherent speech skills through composing a story based on pictures.
Children happily fill out the “Snail” with pictures, naming them, correlating them with the topic of the lesson, while doing a small grammatical exercise (“name it affectionately”, “count to five”, “one-many”, “pick up a sign”).
Thus, in a lesson, this manual can be used at any stage: both as an organizational moment, and at the main stage, as an independent exercise, and at the final stage when summing up the results. This “Snail” serves as the basis for compiling a sequential story based on pictures, an addition to the familiarization and generalization of material on various lexical topics, and the consolidation of the given sounds in words in different positions. In this manual, picture material, which can be supplemented if desired, is selected not only for various lexical topics, but also for the following sounds in different positions (beginning, middle, end of the word): [р], [л], [ж], [ w], [h], [sch], [ts], [z], [s].
The games and exercises listed below are just a small example of how this manual can be used, because its main positive quality is its versatility of use in classes, both individual and group.
