“Math games at home” (5–6 years old)

Numbers. Check

Game “My funny ringing ball” (with a ball)

For example, an adult calls the number 4 (throws the ball) and says:

• “Count further” (and so on with any number up to 10).
• Name the neighbors of the number 4 (5, 6, 9, etc.)
• Name the number that follows the number 2 (3, 4, 6, etc.)
• Name a number that is 1 more (or 1 less than the one named).

Counting in a chain (one at a time).

• The adult starts with “one,” the child continues with “two,” the adult with “three,” the child with “four,” etc. until 10. Then the child starts counting first.

Game “Put aside the same number of objects (counting by ear)

The adult claps his hands rhythmically, the child closes his eyes and counts the claps by ear, then puts away the same number of objects.

• Question: How many items did you put aside? Why?
• Complication: Count 1 more objects (or 1 less than you hear claps.
• Question: How many items have you put aside? Why?

Game "Count the same amount"

There is a large number of objects in front of the child (sticks, circles, buttons, etc.)

• Task: Count out 4 buttons (or any other number up to 10, or count out as many sticks as the number shows (while the adult shows the child any other number within 10).

Game "Wonderful Cup"

Necessary equipment: ten yogurt cups, a small toy that fits in the cup.

• Label each cup with a number.
• Choose a driver. He must look away. During this time, hide a toy under one of the glasses.
• The driver turns and guesses which glass the toy is hidden under. He asks: “Under the first glass? Under the sixth? and so on until he guesses correctly.
• You can answer with prompts: “No, more,” “No, less.”

Game: “Which number is missing?”

• In front of the child is a number row. The child closes his eyes or turns away, the adult removes one or two numbers. Opening his eyes, the child determines which number is missing.

Game: “The numbers are running wild”

All numbers are arranged randomly. Give your child the task of putting the numbers in order.

Connect the number with the required number of objects using an arrow.

Circle the number that corresponds to the number of items.

Game "Name the Number"

In front of the child is a number row. The adult invites the child to show any of the named numbers, or pointing to any number and ask what it is called.

• Tell me which numbers are missing 1 34 6 8 10?
• What number should go instead? 1? ? 4 5? 7? 9 10? and etc.

Game "Guess the number"

The game helps prepare children for basic mathematical operations of addition and subtraction, helps strengthen the skills of determining the previous and subsequent numbers within the first ten

• Ask, for example, which number is greater than three but less than five; what number is less than three but greater than one, etc.
• Children love to guess numbers and guess what they have in mind. Think of a number within ten, for example, and ask your child to guess it. The kid names different numbers, and you say whether the named number is greater than or less than what you had in mind.
• Then switch roles with your child.

Geometric figures

Distinguish and name the shapes: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, trapezoid, rhombus, oval.

Game “Put the object in its place”

There are objects on the table.

• Assignment: round objects - on a round shelf, oval objects - on an oval shelf, etc. (denoting the shelf with the corresponding geometric figure)

Game "Shapes"

Required equipment: counting sticks (or matches).

• Tell your child about basic geometric shapes. Explain what a side and an angle are.
• Together with your child, start making geometric shapes from sticks. Then ask him to do it himself.
• You can give it the required dimensions based on the number of sticks. Invite him, for example, to fold a rectangle with sides of three sticks and four sticks; triangle with sides two and three sticks.
• Try making shapes of different sizes, with different numbers of sticks.
• Teach your child to compare shapes.
• Another option is combined figures, in which some sides will be common. For example, from five sticks you need to simultaneously make a square and two identical triangles, or from ten sticks you need to make two squares - a large and a small one (a small square is made from two sticks inside a large one).
• By combining counting sticks, the child consolidates knowledge of mathematical concepts: “number”, “more”, “less”, “same”, “figure”, “triangle”.

Orientation in space
