In order for a child to attend speech therapy classes with pleasure and complete the tasks offered to him with interest, it is necessary to come up with new, interesting didactic games with different pictures, plots and material.
I bring to your attention didactic manuals for individual speech therapy classes on the automation of different sounds, the formation of intonation expressiveness, the development of hand-eye coordination, and so on.
These benefits help to diversify the lesson and increase the effectiveness of correctional work.
Homemade didactic game for automating sounds “Adventure Road”
Goal: consolidation and refinement of the skill of correct pronunciation of previously learned sounds.
Objectives: development of auditory and visual attention, perception; development of visual-motor coordination, orientation in space; vocabulary expansion
Materials: a large empty candy box, cut out pictures from old postcards and magazines, pictures with attached sound.
Homemade didactic game for automating sounds
Description of work with the manual:
The child is invited to go on a trip. Along the way, he will open magic doors and complete tasks. If everything is done correctly, then at the end of the journey he will receive a small surprise.
At the end of the trip the child receives a small prize
For example, to automate the sound “r” you can take a small machine. Drive along the road, imitating the sound of a rrrrrrrrrr engine, drive up to the door, open it and say the names of the pictures. Behind the last door the child finds a surprise - it could be candy, a picture, etc.
