What is the fastest way to learn letters with your child? The easiest way is to hang a poster with the alphabet on the wall and regularly voice it to your child... But... this method does not work for all children! Unfortunately, many children get bored very quickly and simply “run away” from such activities.
If you find yourself in such a situation, don’t despair! There are many fun letter learning games that your child will love!
Before you start learning letters, it is important not to forget:
Most preschool teachers agree that it is best to teach children the “sound” interpretation of letters (not “Ka” but “K”, not “Be”, but “B”, etc.).
This is done so that later it will be much easier for the child to learn to add syllables.
Compare in which case it will be easier for a child to “figure out” how to form a syllable:
Sound option: “B” + “A” = “BA”
Letter version: “Be” + “A” = ????? - according to the logic of things, children often want to say “BeA” in this place, and this is where the main problem arises that many parents face when they teach their children the “classical” names of letters (such as “Be” “Ve”, etc. .) - when reading syllables, it is difficult for a child to mentally discard the sound “a” from “Ka”, the sound “e” from “Ve”, etc. (they want to read not “VA”, but “VEA”, not “BU”, but “BeU”, etc.)
And this complexity becomes a serious obstacle to teaching a child the skill of combining individual letters into syllables.
Therefore, studying the “sound” interpretation of letters will be much preferable.
So:
Let's color it.
Everything is simple here! You can download coloring pages with letters from the Internet and invite your child to color them. The child will engage in creativity with interest, and at the same time consolidate knowledge about the new letter.
To prevent the child from getting bored with the coloring process, you need to use various interesting techniques:
- color letters not only with pencils, but also with paints, wax crayons, and stamps;
- paint with your fingers using finger paints;
— use non-traditional drawing techniques ( with cotton swabs, crumpled paper, blots, etc.).
2. Decorate the letter.
Children will have fun decorating the letters!
You can decorate them with plasticine, applique, colored glass, construction kit parts... whatever you want!
Try decorating the letter “A” with watermelons, the letter “B” with bananas, etc.
Online alphabet learning programs for children
Some parents believe that a computer can harm their child. Now these views are outdated. It can become a reliable and effective assistant in teaching children the alphabet. There are many such sites. Here are some of them:
- The website https://dodosha.rf/alphabet/ presents several educational programs for kids. "Talking Alphabet" tells children what letters sound like. The Jolly Engine helps them form words. The site also contains other educational games on the topic in question.
- The link https://online-azbuka.ru/ has online games that will help in learning the alphabet. For example, you can select a letter and go to the page dedicated to it. When you click on the desired picture with the mouse, the child’s voice pronounces it loudly and clearly or gives an example of pronunciation as part of the word.
Note! Such games can not only teach a child, but can also bring pleasure and captivate him. It is recommended to start learning the alphabet as early as possible. Classes should be based on the child’s passion and parents’ support for his success.
Let's sculpt.
A very useful activity is to sculpt letters from colored dough or plasticine. And if you combine sculpting with listening to Ekaterina Zheleznova’s songs from the album “Musical Primer” (in which the whole sculpting process is “sung” in a very interesting way), then sculpting will be even more fun.
Wonderful mothers, passionate about the development of children, have long made funny videos from these songs and posted them online.
For example, while playing and watching a funny video, you can make the letter A in a fun and interesting way:
Tilt two sticks
Connect at the top
One crossbar -
Like a letter A tent!
Exercises to strengthen and develop the speech apparatus
Often, a child pronounces sounds incorrectly because his speech apparatus muscles are poorly developed. Speech therapists offer exercises aimed at strengthening this muscle group. You need to start doing them from the age of 3-4 , so that by the age of 6-7 the child does not have any problems with speech.
- Exercises to strengthen the muscles of the tongue help pronounce the letters “c”, “ch”, “t”, “r”, “sh”, “zh”.
- “Sting” - tense your tongue as much as possible, stick it out and stay in this position for as long as possible.
- “Spatula” - place the tongue on the lower lip.
- “Bowl” - open your mouth, stick out your tongue, do not touch your teeth, stick it back.
- “Pendulum” - open your mouth, stick out your tongue, tense, and move left and right.
- “Horse” , “turkey” - the baby should imitate the clatter of hooves, as well as the cry of a turkey (bl-bl-bl).
- Exercises to strengthen the root of the tongue help to correctly pronounce the sounds “g”, “k”, “x”.
- slight cough;
- imitation of sounds when gargling;
- pronunciation of the vowels “a”, “i”, “e”, but sharply, abruptly.
- Correct closing of the lips helps to pronounce the sounds “b”, “m”, “p”.
- Squeeze the pencil between your lips and describe a circle in the air with it.
- Squeeze a bean or seed with your lips and then sharply spit it out.
- Show how a horse snorts.
- Imitation of drum sounds - boom, bam.
- Cheek training.
- Take turns puffing out your cheeks.
- Puff out your cheeks and imitate chewing food.
- Roll air from one cheek to another.
Fine motor skills help in speech development. Massage your baby's palms regularly. You can use soft brushes, balls, and say jokes for this. Applications, stringing of beads, modeling from plasticine or salt dough are great for developing fine motor skills.
Halves is a game to consolidate knowledge about already familiar letters.
In the process of learning the alphabet, the process of repetition is important. Still would! After all, by the time you get to “I”, you must try not to forget the letter “A”.
The process of repeating already learned material will be more fun with the game “Halves”!
Cut out beautiful cards with letters, cut them into two parts, mix them.
Invite your child to “fold” letters from two halves.
How to teach a child the alphabet at 3-4 years old
If you decide to teach your child letters at 3 years old, remember that nothing can be done through force, only games, only entertaining exercises and NO FORCE. These recommendations are relevant for any age, because you do not want to develop an unwillingness to learn and go to school in the future.
- Don't expect your child to remember many letters right away. Don't set out to learn the entire alphabet; it will take time.
- Give your child new material twice a week, and on the remaining days, repeat and consolidate what you have learned.
- With a child 3-4 years old, it is enough to exercise 2-7 minutes a day.
- Learn vowels in pairs, so it will be easier for your child to remember: A - Z, O - Yo, U-Yu, Y - I, E - E.
- Before introducing your child to consonants and starting to learn to read, make sure that knowledge of all vowels has been brought to automaticity.
Memory.
To consolidate the material covered, the well-known game “Memory” is also suitable (at the same time, attention and memory are trained). You will need a set of cards in which each of the pictures with a certain letter is presented in duplicate.
Shuffle the cards and place them in front of the child, white side up.
Ask him to turn over any of the cards, name the sound that the open letter represents. Then the player needs to find exactly the same card among the others that have not yet been turned over. The player looks for the desired letter by turning over the remaining cards and checking what is written on them.
Did you open the wrong letter? Turn it back to the white side up and look for a pair further!
When the required card is found, the player takes two cards for himself and the game continues until a pair is found for each card.
Methods for teaching preschoolers to read at home
There are effective methods for teaching children in preparation for school. The most popular of them are described below.
Traditional technique
Classical methods can be used to teach preschoolers. It is based on the following:
- The learning procedure uses cards with letters on them. It is important that the image is colorful and bright. For letters, the background should be inconspicuous and not attract attention. As they study, such cards are attached to the wall in the child’s playroom or in other prominent places. This is necessary so that the baby gets used to them and develops visual memory.
- It is recommended to choose 10 vowels as the very first letters to study. It is believed that at first they are easier to master than consonants. When training is carried out, they not only need to be named, but also sung in order for the child to master it better.
- When learning letters, you need to use not the name, but what sound they correspond to. For demonstration, you can make the sound last longer if possible.
- When studying consonants, it must be borne in mind that some of them are more difficult to perceive and repeat than others. It is recommended to start with mastering T, G, N, M, B, P, K. These letters are easier for a child to master. Sh, Shch, Ch or R in most cases cause more difficulties.
- During intensive classroom teaching, situations may arise when the child is tired and has difficulty learning the material. In this case, there is no need to put pressure on him. We need to give him a rest, and then continue his training with renewed vigor.
- It is important not to limit your activities to your home environment. The child should be encouraged to look for letters he knows when walking on the street in the names of stores or on advertisements.
Note! It is important that learning takes place in a calm and friendly environment. The baby needs to be encouraged and praised, noting his successes, helping to develop skills.
Zaitsev cubes
When studying individual letters, sometimes a situation arises when the letters are already known, but it is not yet possible to form words from them. The author who created this technique believes that learning letters from cards with pictures is harmful to a child’s development.
Zaitsev illustrates this with the following example. For the letter Z, a zebra is depicted on the card. Similar pictures accompany other letters. In this case, the problem arises of how to explain to a child that four cards (zebra, eagle, rhinoceros and tiger) together mean “umbrella”.
According to Zaitsev’s method, several channels of information are used to teach children:
- The cubes vary in size.
- Images of letters are printed using five different colors, which makes it impossible to confuse them.
- Using different materials to make cubes results in different sounds when played with. Some are metal and others are wooden.
Note! Zaitsev divides words not into letters, but into warehouses. Depending on the situation, they may consist of a combination of a consonant and a vowel; consonant with a soft sign; sometimes it contains only one letter.
“Ebru” drawing technique for children for home and kindergarten
Using these cubes, you can start learning the alphabet even with a one-year-old baby. Before starting the lesson, it is necessary to explain that these cubes are not simple - they will help teach reading over time.
When sold, in addition to the cubes, the package includes shelves, tables and disks with educational songs. They are intended to help with learning. You can display cubes on the shelves in such a way that they can create the desired combinations from the warehouses (they are indicated in the attached tables). The resulting words can be chanted to improve learning.
Note! Using cubes, they lay out familiar words and sing them themselves, then together with the child. The set includes 246 warehouses.
Glen Doman Method
This man developed a method for the intensive development of children. Those who studied in this way were already able to read and count as a result of training at the age of 2, 3 or 4. The system he created provides for not only psychological and intellectual development, but also physical development.
Lotto for learning letters
The training system is built on the following principles:
- It is recommended to start classes for the development of the child as early as possible.
- It is important that the child sees that his parents are happy with his successes and support him in every possible way along this path.
- During the learning process, it is important to show respect for the child and demonstrate trust in him.
- It is important to organize training in such a way that it evokes positive emotions in both the child and his parents.
- You need to stop teaching if the child starts rubbing his eyes or looking out the window. It is better to announce a break before the baby has this need.
- For learning, you need to create a special supportive environment.
- During classes, it is important to offer new material to learn as often as possible.
- Classes must be consistent and occur on a regular basis.
- It is important to teach, but not test the child’s knowledge.
- Parents should prepare for classes in advance and do so thoughtfully and carefully.
- If the baby becomes bored, you need to go to rest.
Note! In this way, you can learn not only letters or numbers, but also other subjects necessary for the development of the baby.
Another way to teach letters
An example of a reading lesson looks like this:
- On the first day, a six-month-old child is shown five cards with the words “dad,” “mom,” “grandmother” and the like for 10 seconds and pronounces them loudly and clearly. This can be repeated twice more throughout the day.
- On the second day, add 5 more pieces. They do three similar classes using the old ones and three using the new ones.
- Add 5 more pieces. There are three lessons for each of the three sets.
- On the fourth day, 5 more cards are added, increasing the number of lessons accordingly.
- Add 5 more cards to existing sets, removing one from each previous set.
Note! Gradually, they move from studying words to phrases, then to simple and complex sentences. The time of each lesson with one set does not exceed 10 seconds.
ABC for kids
There are several variants of this alphabet:
- Made on separate cards.
- Sound - is an electronic device that, when you press certain keys, the baby hears how the selected letter sounds.
- Magnetic consists of a metal board and magnetic letters that can be used to lay out the necessary words and sentences on the board.
- The alphabet can be on cubes; in this case, it is possible to lay out words, placing them in a row.
Note! It is necessary, under the guidance of the parent conducting the lesson, to pronounce words that are obtained from letters.
Lotto and foil.
Another way to study and repeat letters is lotto.
Not all children are enthusiastic about letter lotto. In order to interest the child in this game, you can use foil or paper.
Prepare the playing field, and also wrap the letter figures in foil or paper.
Invite your child to unfold the letter and place it in its place on the lotto playing field.
Lotto can be sound - in this case you need to put a letter on a card on which an object is drawn that begins with this letter.
Where is it better to start (step-by-step training)
When conducting classes, it is important to determine the sequence of training. In this case, you need to pay attention to the following:
- During the initial learning of letters, there is no need to master them in accordance with the order in which they are located in the alphabet.
- Since vowels and consonants differ significantly in pronunciation, there is no need to study them together.
- It is recommended to start studying vowels at the beginning of your studies.
- Consonants are more difficult for a child to learn than vowels and cannot be learned at first.
- When teaching kids, you need to take into account the difference between the name a letter bears and how it sounds in words. It is important that the child learns the second first. This can help when learning to read in the future.
Organization of a nature corner in kindergartens according to the Federal State Educational Standard
Important! Watching educational cartoons will help. For example, you can choose where it is shown how to learn letters with the help of Luntik.
Why is it important to learn 10 vowels well?
When a child takes the first steps in learning to read, he will not be able to read words if he does not know how to pronounce the vowels correctly. When reading words, he will stammer every time he encounters them in a word. It is important that the baby first understands well what all 10 vowel letters look like and how to pronounce them. This will serve as a solid foundation for further learning.
How to learn consonants
When studying them, they begin by introducing them to the sound and only then to the name of the letter in the alphabet. It is recommended to name consonants without accompanying sounds: not “EM”, but “M”. This will serve as a basis for further study of letters. You need to show your child the letters he knows in books and pronounce words with their participation.
Note! During walks, pay attention to signs or advertisements, ask the child to find familiar letters in them and pronounce them. When asking what letter he saw, he must be praised for the correct answer.
Wooden frame for letters
If this kind of activity is carried out regularly and unobtrusively, the baby will gradually master all the letters and will be able to easily recognize them.
Letter eater.
A cheerful Bukvoeshka may appear in your home. The easiest way to do this is to take a glove doll or a soft toy.
For example, this cockerel -
very unusual! He eats letters! Come on! Let him eat the letter B! And now he wants the letter A! Oh, how deliciously you feed the cockerel!
You can play the letter game in another way:
Funny people live in this box. They eat nothing but letters. Let's feed them? (the little people’s mouths are slits in the box).
Here is their food (we draw letters on the beans with a felt-tip pen):
We feed the little men (each little man has his own letter, if the baby makes a mistake, the little men spit merrily, close their mouths and demand to be fed another food that suits them better (beans with “their” letter):
Why teach your child the alphabet?
It is important that parents understand that learning letters is not a self-sufficient activity, but a step in learning to read and understand what they read. Of course, in addition to this, such an activity can be considered as an exercise for the development of speech, memory, attention and intelligence of the child.
Alphabet
It is important to understand that knowledge of Russian letters, if acquired at too early an age, will be forgotten by the time the time comes to master reading. In addition, the names of the letters sound different compared to their use in words and syllables. If you do not connect reading and learning letters with each other, then you may need to retrain your child.
We design.
We lay out the silhouettes of letters from counting sticks, matches, Lego and everything else that comes to hand:
Some children may find it difficult to form letters from available materials (especially if the child is under 3.5 years old).
With such children you can design using the “overlay” method.
To do this, you can draw these simple diagrams:
Also, in order to build letters, you can use the Zheleznovs’ musical primer, which was already written about in paragraph 3 of this article.
For example, the poems and song that are described in paragraph 3 for “A” can also be used to construct this letter from sticks (Tilt two sticks, connect them at the top, one crossbar - like the letter A in a tent!)
Songs to learn the alphabet - video
Songs help you learn the alphabet and remember letters faster and easier. To a cheerful, simple melody, the characters sing about the letters, arranged in the same order as in the alphabet. Get your child interested in the video and offer several options to choose from. Let the child choose the song himself.
If the child is attentive and not only listens, but also watches the video series, choose a song with bright pictures and memorable characters.
your child often get distracted while watching ? A song with only lyrics is enough.
Tip : You can listen and watch videos every day in the first half of the day, when information is perceived easier and faster.
Outline.
This is a great game for learning how to write letters.
Draw the letter with paints. And then ask your child to circle it with a different color... or several colors. Of course, it is better to draw the letter on an A4 sheet.
You can even “write” entire words this way:
Talking ABC - poster for learning the alphabet at home
We have prepared for you a review of the most interesting and fascinating alphabet posters. Choose a poster where a voice pronounces the letter and sound. It is important that the child understands the difference between them. Be patient, support the child in everything, help him.
- Talking ABC Expert. This poster contains letters, poems, songs, and the voiceover is clear and understandable.
- ABC. Farm and zoo. Here the child will find fairy tales, letters, numbers, geometric shapes, animal names. The poster is bright, engaging, and the sound is clear and loud.
- Poster Pushkin and Russia. ABC. The canvas depicts characters from the works of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, they read poetry, professional voice acting is used. The buttons respond well to pressing and have an auto-off function.
- Safety poster. Azbukvarik . – the poster introduces children not only to letters and sounds, but also to the rules of the road. Very colorful, useful and durable.
- ABC of child safety. Connoisseur. The poster teaches useful and necessary things in life - politeness, correct behavior and, of course, the alphabet. There is a knowledge test function and musical accompaniment.
"Find it!"
Find all the letters “K” in this picture and circle them!
And in this picture there are all the letters “T”:
Find all the red letters “M”... And now the blue ones... And now the orange ones, etc.
Now count - how many letters “M” did you find in total?
Reading syllables of varying complexity
When moving from learning letters to reading sentences, correctly pronouncing syllables is an important developmental milestone. At the same time, it is important to show the child how words are formed from the sounds of letters.
Set of letters to study
Important! When learning syllables, it is important to accurately pronounce them out loud, reinforcing pronunciation. Subsequently, based on what you have learned, you can move on to reading words and sentences. Educational cartoons can help in mastering the pronunciation of syllables, for example, “The ABC with Cars.”
Games with mosaics.
Lay out the letter from the mosaic according to the example:
A simpler and more interesting option:
Roll out the dough, draw a letter on it with a felt-tip pen... and decorate it with a mosaic!
You can also decorate the letters on the dough with other items, such as cereal:
Outdoor game “Run to the letter”
The good thing about this game is that it's dynamic - it's more like a fun game of catch-up rather than a learning process. It can be used instead of a mobile pause in class to have a useful rest.
Hang pictures of different letters on the walls of the room (you can use letters that you “decorated” with your child).
Now we give the child the command: “Run quickly, quickly to the letter C!”
And now to the letter “A”!
This game not only helps you learn letters in motion, it also develops attention and memory.
If a child refuses to run at your command, you can take him by the hand and run with him.
A very interesting variation of this game was invented and offered on her website by Natalya Chistokletova (link to source). This is the game “Cover the letter with your palm”:
Game "Feed the Monster":
17. Outdoor game “Jump-jump-team!”
This game is also active, and therefore children also love it!
Do you remember the funny program “Jump-Jump-Team” on the “Carousel” channel?
You can play “jump-jump-team” with letters!
Let's take a cube with letters! (if you don’t have one ready-made, you can make it.... Well, as a last resort, just turn the cards with the letters face down and pull them out one at a time).
For example, this simple cube can be made using a children's cube, tape and paper:
Let's throw the dice... What have we got? Yeah! "U".
What happens with “U”... Snail? Let's show her (we put a pillow on our back and start crawling on the floor).
Now what? Letter "C". At "C" we have an elephant! Let's show it too!
