Goals and objectives of logorhythmics
Classes can be individual or group. In speech therapy, speech and motor forms of development are considered interrelated. Movements performed in a certain rhythm are easy to remember. It is easy to build speech rhythm on their basis. By moving and at the same time pronouncing phrases at the same pace, the child learns to speak clearly and beautifully.
The goal of logorhythmics is the prevention and correction of speech defects, physical and psycho-emotional development.
Tasks:
- correction of speech disorders;
- improved breathing;
- improvement of articulation, phonemic hearing;
- improved coordination of movements;
- expansion of individual vocabulary;
- developing interest in music as a cultural phenomenon;
- development of memory, concentration, ability to navigate in space;
- improving the sense of rhythm;
- expanding ideas about the world around us;
- stimulation of speech activity.
Which activity to choose depends on the problem the child has. If it is stuttering, rhythm and breathing exercises should be predominant. And if a preschooler finds it difficult to reproduce certain sounds, then articulation classes become mandatory.
Types of tasks in logorhythmics
Logorhythmics exercises include various movements, words, songs, and sounds. Combining this results in useful, interesting tasks. Classic types of speech therapy rhythm classes consist of walking, marching, breathing, and dancing exercises.
Walking is a mandatory exercise in every lesson. Rhythmic movements with the pronunciation of words help cope with speech development anomalies in preschoolers. The teacher needs to regularly complicate it: children must learn to march in a circle, in pairs, in threes, and learn a counter step. Walking teaches kids to navigate in space and develops correct posture. Performed to musical accompaniment.
Exercises to strengthen muscle tone help preschoolers cope with their movements and teach them to control muscle tone.
Logorhythmic exercises for the breathing apparatus also strengthen the cardiovascular system. Completing these tasks helps strengthen diaphragmatic breathing and trains the duration of inhalation and exhalation.
Voice development tasks involve pronouncing vowels and consonants while exhaling. Thus, children develop the strength and expressiveness of their voice.
Dance elements in the tasks allow you to develop motor skills and feel the beats. The movements are selected from classical and folk dance, where the baby’s arms and legs can be used.
A variety of speech tasks can be accompanied by music, then the baby must learn to pronounce lines in accordance with the musical beat. This trains memory well and develops expressiveness of speech.
Puzzles
Riddles are motivating when working with little ones, as they allow them to be as interested as possible and motivated to complete the task. It is better to choose riddles with a saying. So, based on the content and rhyme, the baby immediately understands what is being said.
Poems
Using poems, you can create a task with the addition of dance elements. During the performance, children pronounce what they show with their movements. After this, you can talk with the children about the content of the poem. This also includes logarithmic songs.
Short stories
By playing out small stories (fairy tales), children get ready to perform logorhythmic exercises.
Group of visual techniques
The teacher should prepare in advance for conducting classes, select pictures, videos with exercises, as well as toys, on behalf of which the procedure for completing tasks will be explained.
Practical techniques
Similar techniques are used to summarize the results of speech therapy classes. Such techniques include drawings, crafts, and projects. Projects can be completed at home, together with parents of preschoolers.
Gaming techniques
Almost all tasks in logorhythmics are based on the game. Where complex interaction is not provided, you can use games for the little ones that will help them get ready for work.
How to personalize tasks
In order for a preschooler to accurately remember material based on speech therapy rhythms, he must hear, see, and move during classes. By combining several techniques you can get attention from the most restless children.
What is included in logorhythmics
Logorhythmics classes in preschool include:
- different types of physical activity - walking, squats, jumping, dancing, clapping, waving your hands - such exercises are usually used as a warm-up;
- speech correction methods;
- articulation gymnastics, breathing exercises;
- singing, reading poetry, saying tongue twisters;
- finger gymnastics;

Logorhythmics in the lives of children " Logorithmics in the lives of children "
Relevance: Every year, the number of children with various speech disorders in kindergartens is growing. This is the result of insufficient attention from parents, the replacement of live communication between children with modern technologies: television, computers and phones...
Dynamic hour with elements of logorhythmics Purpose: To create conditions for improving the motor activity of children based on the formation of the need for movement. Objectives: -smooth transition from sleep to wakefulness during the day; - ensuring the necessary volume of physical activity of children; - increasing physical...
Rules for conducting classes in logorhythmics
Logorhythmics implies a playful form that is attractive to children. To increase your preschooler's interest in activities, use toys, illustrations, literary works, musical instruments, audio recordings, unusual objects, puppets and finger puppets.
If a child stutters, he should study every other day. With a healthy preschooler, it is enough to work twice a week.
The pace of exercises during each next lesson should gradually increase as the child successfully completes them. The musical accompaniment must correspond to the tempo of motor activity and the emotional content of the actions.
Don't show your child that you are unhappy with him. Disappointed in himself, he may refuse to do the exercises next time.
Theme of the logorhythmic lesson: “In the autumn forest”
Non-speech goals:
- development of coordination of movements, orientation in space;
- development of auditory perception, attention, memory;
- developing the ability to work in a team of peers;
- development of a sense of rhythm and ear for music;
- development of creative thinking;
- normalization of muscle tone.
Speech goals:
- development of speech breathing and voice formation;
- development of facial and articulatory motor skills;
- synchronization of speech with movement;
- development of prosodic components;
- activation of the dictionary on lexical topics “Autumn”, “Forest”, “Trees”, “Wild Animals”.
Equipment: plot painting “Autumn Forest”; toy trees; dummies of mushrooms (or object pictures); fairy-tale characters - hedgehog, bear; wooden spoons, rattles, technical means for playing music.
Logorhythmics for children 3 years old
3 years of age is a period of active speech development. Therefore, logorhythmics exercises for children should stimulate speech activity, improve thinking abilities, and develop articulation. We also shouldn’t forget about physical activity; outdoor games are required.
Far or near
Explain to children that far away objects make quiet sounds, while close objects make loud sounds. Offer to play animal voices. For example, a dog barks far away - the children say quietly “woof-woof”, a dog barks close - the children say loudly “woof-woof”. Likewise for cats, sheep, cows, roosters, cuckoos, frogs and other animals.
My family
Read the poem, and the students should bend their finger after each line:
- “this finger is grandpa” - kids bend their thumb;
- “this finger is grandma” - index;
- “this finger is daddy” - middle;
- “this finger is mommy” - ring finger;
- “and this finger is me” - little finger;
- “Here is my family” - the children put forward the resulting fist.
Happy tummy
The logorhythmics game is designed to improve breathing through the diaphragm. The preschooler lies on his back, relaxes, and places his favorite toy on his stomach. Ask your child to take a deep breath so that the belly rises and the toy rises with it. Then exhale so that the stomach with the toy drops. Let him repeat the action several times.
Tell me in order
Logorhythmic games develop speech breathing. The child must inhale, then, as he exhales, count the objects in the picture: one, two, three... The number of words spoken while exhaling should correspond to the age of the child.
Articulation gymnastics
Articulation exercises within the framework of logorhythmics tone the muscles of the tongue and jaws. Here are some examples:
- “I’m licking” - the mouth is not wide open, the tongue moves smoothly in a circle over the lips;
- “The teeth are hiding” - the lips are either tightly compressed, or stretched into a wide smile;
- “Football player” - the tongue moves inside the oral cavity from right to left with pressure on the mucous walls;
- “Angry tongue” - the tip of the tongue rests on the back walls of the upper pair of incisors.
Walking
To the accompaniment of music, children walk in a chain, holding the cord with their left hand. First they take the usual steps, the music conveys the appropriate rhythm. Then the pace changes, the players walk about 3 m with an extended step, raising their legs high. At the 3rd stage, children, continuing to move one after another, must step over 5 cubes and steps of a ladder placed on the floor.
Logorhythmics for children 4 years old
For a 4-year-old child, physical development and improvement of motor skills are of paramount importance. It is also important to teach preschoolers proper communication, beautiful pronunciation, and clear pronunciation of sounds.
Do like the animals
Encourage students to imitate the movements and sounds of different animals. For example, how a bear walks and growls - children answer “rrrr”, while moving in a waddle with clubfoot steps. Or, as a goose flies and screams, the players respond “ha-ha-ha”, while waving their arms widely.
I go, I swim, I fly
When children hear the word “earth,” they stomp on the floor. When they hear the word “water,” they make movements with their hands as if they are swimming. And when they hear the word “air,” they flap their arms like birds in flight.
Vegetables
Show your student illustrations of vegetables, while pronouncing their names clearly in syllables: po-mi-dor, ka-ba-chok, re-dis, ku-ku-ru-za. The child should clap his hands after each syllable he hears.
Feed the birds
To play using logorhythmics, you need to prepare grain, peas and small pebbles, as well as 6 containers. Invite the student to feed the birds that fly to the feeder. To do this, he must transfer the grain, peas and pebbles to another container. First the baby does this with one hand, then with the other, then with both. Then he uses only his fingers: the thumb with the index finger, then with the middle finger, with the ring finger and, finally, with the little finger.
Train
Preschoolers imitate train carriages: they stand one after another, bend their arms at the elbow joint, press them to their sides, and clench their palms into fists. They begin to move to the music in the appropriate rhythm, stomping their feet and at the same time making circular movements with their hands. The tempo of the music changes, following which the children change the speed of their movements.
Automobile
Children answer questions, accompanying their answers with appropriate actions:
- how the car honks - “beep, beep” - the children press their fist on the open palm of their other hand;
- how the engine makes noise - “zh-zh-zh” - they make circular movements with their hands, as if they are steering a steering wheel;
- how fast we drive - “rrrr” - loudly and quickly knocking our feet on the floor;
- how the tires rustle on the asphalt - “sh-sh-sh” - the children rub their palms against one another;
- how the wheels spin - “ta-ta-ta” - make circular movements with your arms in one direction.
Logorhythmics for children 5 years old
Logorhythmics notes for middle group preschoolers should include active games aimed at physical development and recovery. The movements become more complicated, complemented by other different actions, and the load becomes more intense. Classes should develop flexibility, promote healthy posture, and improve creativity.
Tell a friend
Logorhythmics games develop concentration and reaction speed. The players stand in pairs opposite each other. In the hand of one is a skittle, the other has a ring from a toy pyramid. When the music starts, the transfer of objects begins: one player takes the pin from the second with his right hand, and gives the ring with his left, and so on in a circle.
Cooking cabbage
Tell the poem, performing actions corresponding to the plot, and the child must repeat them:
- “We chopped the cabbage” - the baby makes chopping movements with his hands;
- “We salted the cabbage” – folds his fingers, moves them as if pouring salt;
- “We crushed the cabbage” - makes squeezing and squeezing movements with his hands;
- “We got delicious food” - claps his hands.
What rang
Show the pupils 4 objects: wooden spoons, a rattle, a glass cup, a metal bell. Ring the objects, hide them. Ring them again from the hiding place. Children must guess what is ringing.
Zoo
Divide the players into 4 groups: hares, bears, zebras, parrots. To the accompaniment of music, children move, imitating animals: “hares” jump, “bears” waddle, “zebras” raise their legs high above the floor, “parrots” wave their arms.
Geese
Logorhythmic games improve motor skills. The pupils’ task is to reproduce the actions of birds according to the rhyme:
- “The geese have arrived” - children wave their arms and run on tiptoe;
- “sat down on the lawn” - squat down;
- “walked” - players get up, slowly walk on tiptoe;
- “pecked” - they stop and bend down;
- “and quickly ran away” - the players run to their chairs and sit on them.
Logorhythmics: developing speech with movement
What do children usually do in kindergarten? They move actively, sing, learn to speak correctly. Speech therapy rhythmics, or logorhythmics, is an opportunity to do all this at once, developing motor skills, speech, hearing and the ability to move in a coordinated manner. How and why logorhythmics is useful and how to practice it at home, says speech therapist Ekaterina Savina.
Ekaterina Savina, speech therapist
In the middle of the last century, biologists and doctors proved that regularly performing certain movements in a given rhythm helps with a variety of diseases and not only improves well-being, but also raises the “morale” of patients. This is how first a general - therapeutic, and then a highly specialized - speech therapy rhythm appeared. A cocktail of movements, speech and music helps children learn to speak beautifully and smoothly, and in some cases even get rid of stuttering.
What is logorhythmics
Logorhythmics is a system of exercises, tasks, games based on a combination of music, movement, words, a method of speech therapy work on the development of a child’s speech. Its goal is to solve correctional, educational and health problems.
The popularity and effectiveness of logorhythmics is due to the fact that classes are held in a playful manner based on the principle of imitation.
In essence, this is a set of physical exercises, which is accompanied by words and music. If you regularly include elements of logorhythmics in your child’s play activities, you can achieve noticeable results. Thus, this therapy helps the baby more easily navigate space and coordinate his movements in conjunction with speech and music, improves gross and fine motor skills, relieves psycho-emotional stress, teaches proper breathing, and improves phonemic hearing.
Logorhythmics classes require attention, intelligence, quick reaction, and organization from children; they help children become more relaxed and emotional. And all this improves the child’s mental processes.
Who will it be useful for?
Logorhythmics is primarily recommended for children:
- with stuttering or a hereditary predisposition to it;
- with excessively fast/slow or intermittent speech;
- with insufficiently developed motor skills and coordination of movements;
- with dysarthria, delayed speech development, impaired pronunciation of certain sounds;
- often sick and weakened;
- who are in a period of intensive speech formation (on average, the age is from 2.5 to 4 years).
Classes by age
Each period has different needs and opportunities. Logorhythmics is good because you can do it from the first days of life, however, until 2 years of age, the exercises will be passive.
From 0 to 2 and a half years
Read a rhyme or nursery rhyme to your baby while clapping your hands rhythmically. Then help your child perform the necessary movements: raise and lower his hands when he hears certain words, clap his hands to the beat of poetry or music. The same can be done with songs.
From 2.5 to 4 years
At this age, children improve motor skills, learn to speak and communicate - this is exactly what needs to be done in logarithmics lessons. If the child does not yet speak in sentences, allow him to repeat only the last words of a phrase or just the endings of words.
“Walk” (development of general motor skills)
Along a narrow path (we walk in place)
Our legs are walking (we raise our legs high)
Top - top, top - top (we stomp on each word with our feet alternately)
“Big and small drops” (development of a sense of tempo and rhythm)
Tell your child that it is raining. You can turn on the corresponding audio recording and listen to it with your eyes closed for 10-15 seconds. “How do big drops knock? That's right, they knock slowly - drip, drip, drip, drip... What about small droplets? Of course, quickly! Drip-drip-drip-drip-drip-drip..."
The child’s task is to pronounce the text by clapping his hands on his knees in given rhythms.
Finger game “House” (development of fine motor skills)
There is a house in a clearing (the fingers of both hands are widely spaced at an angle to each other, only the fingertips are touching),
Well, the path to the house is closed (the thumbs of both hands are raised up, the remaining fingers are in a horizontal position together, the tips of the middle fingers are touching),
We open the gates
We invite you to this house (palms turn parallel to each other, arms spread to the sides with palms up).
“Wind” (normalization of muscle tone, relaxation)
The wind blows in our faces
And the tree shakes (we shake with our arms raised up, tilting the body to the right and left).
The breeze is getting quieter and quieter (we slowly shake our hands).
The trees are getting higher and higher (we stretch up on our toes, our arms are raised up).
“Blizzard” (development of speech breathing)
You say, “How does the strong wind blow? Oooh... Who will portray the longest wind? The baby, after vigorously inhaling through the nose, exhales and makes the sound “U-u-u...”
From 4 to 6 years
At this age, the child’s speech ceases to be “childish” and the number of “funny” mistakes gradually disappears. Therefore, to familiar activities you need to add speech therapy gymnastics and pure speech to practice sounds.
“Turtle” (self-massage)
A turtle went for a swim (the child performs light pinching with his fingers, chest, and legs)
And she bit everyone out of fear:
Kus! Kus! Kus! Kus!
I'm not afraid of anyone!
Pure speech on the sound T (development of sound pronunciation)
Tsk-tsk-tsk - there are cucumbers in the garden (clap our hands).
Itza-itsa-itsa - a tit flew to us (we make light waves with our hands, imitating wings).
Rets-rets-rets - I pecked at the cucumber (we tap the index finger on the knees).
Tsu-tsu-tsu - I’ll give everyone a cucumber (rhythmically stretch your arms forward and then press them to your chest).
From 6 to 8 years
At this age, the child can control almost all movements, and he himself is full of energy and strength.
“Freeze” (development of reaction speed, creative abilities)
The child runs to fast music, imitating the movements of some animal. As soon as the music stops, the little one should freeze, taking a pose that conveys the image of this animal. The adult tries to guess what kind of animal the child has depicted.
Singing (breathing, voice and fluency training)
Any (even adult) song that the child likes is suitable.
“Scouts” (developing a sense of tempo and rhythm)
The adult claps a simple rhythm (for example, 2 slow and 2 fast claps) and invites the child to repeat this “secret code.” When the task begins to be completed without errors, the rhythm is no longer slammed, but played on a musical instrument. Tambourine, drum, xylophone - anything that can produce rhythmic beats is suitable.
A more complex level: the adult claps the rhythm with his hands, and the child repeats it on the instrument.
“Mirror” (development of the ability to navigate in space)
Prepare pictures with schematic images of moving men. To fast (or medium tempo) music, the child makes voluntary movements (you can run, spin, jump - the main thing is to keep in time with the music). As soon as the melody stops, the baby should take the pose of the little man drawn in the picture and freeze.
How to practice at home
Speech therapy rhythm is very simple: all tasks can be performed by a person who does not have any special training. But it's important to consider a few key points.
- The basis is imitation. The exercises are structured like this: the adult shows and the child repeats. There is no need to specifically memorize speech material: let everything happen gradually - from lesson to lesson. First, the text is read by an adult, encouraging the child to repeat. Gradually the child gets involved in reading. When he can repeat all the phrases in the right rhythm and without mistakes, the path takes the initiative.
- The result will not be soon. You only need to do logorhythmics a couple of times a week. Children who stutter - twice as often. Don’t expect a quick effect: the results will be judged in at least six months (or even a year).
- Classes should be fun. Let logorhythmics bring pleasure! During classes, you can and should use pictures, toys, bright clothes or carnival costumes, if they do not interfere with movement. In short, any items that bring joy to the baby!
- The skill needs to be honed. Repeat the exercises until they are performed perfectly. If you can’t master a task, give it up for a while, but then be sure to come back.
- Choose your music carefully. For the slow part of the lesson, waltzes (for example, from “The Nutcracker”) are suitable, for a more active part - a march, and for the “violent” part you can use the classic “Flight of the Bumblebee”. Stock up on children's songs and recordings of nature sounds.
- Focus on the child. If your child doesn’t succeed in something, simplify the task or break the lesson into several very short parts. Have you noticed that your child has difficulties with fine motor skills and sounds? Feel free to increase the number of appropriate exercises. Don’t be afraid to experiment: the main thing is to maintain the unity of music, movement and speech, but otherwise the scope of your imagination is not limited.
- Perform speech exercises carefully. Speak the poems so that the child can correlate the movements of the arms, legs, and torso with the rhythm of speech. The correct sequence is important: first, children perform the action “by demonstration”, then independently, in the right rhythm, while simultaneously pronouncing or singing the words in the same rhythm.
- Be patient. Don't be upset or angry if your baby doesn't succeed. Feeling your dissatisfaction, he may withdraw and refuse the exercise. Don’t give up what you started, even if you doubt that your child will ever cope with it.
The success of logorhythmics depends largely on whether the child likes the activities and whether he enjoys them. Listen to your baby, practice at a pace that is comfortable for him, and you will definitely see improvements.
For children 6 years old
From the age of 6, preschoolers are already preparing for school; logorhythmic exercises become more complex. At this age, it is important to develop rhythm, intonation, clarity of speech, the ability to express emotions, and broaden your horizons.
Living-non-living
Say the words, and the children should clap their hands when they hear the name of a living and small creature. For example: bee, telephone, pencil, mosquito, hippopotamus, giraffe, ant, grasshopper, ball, chick, button, dragonfly, window, horse, snail.
Find out the animal
Players must depict the given animals using facial expressions and body movements. For example, an important turkey, a cowardly rabbit, a slow turtle. And the rest must guess who the friend is showing.
Journey
Tell the students that they will now go traveling using different types of transport. First, in the car - the children pronounce the drawn-out sound “r-r-r”. Then on the plane - “oooh”. The plane is descending - the children pronounce the sound more quietly. The journey continues on the train - “too-too-oo-oo”. The train is moving fast - “chug-chug-chug”. Approaching the station, it slows down - the children say “chuh-chuh” more slowly. The train stopped, steam came out from under the wheels - “sh-sh-sh”. Then the journey continues on horseback - the children make a clicking sound with their tongue.
Find out by facial expressions
Children take turns naming interjections and using facial expressions to depict the corresponding emotion. The rest of us have to guess what we're talking about:
- Oh! - astonishment;
- Oh! - pain;
- Ay! – fear;
- Eh! – fun;
- Hey! - discontent;
- Oh! – confusion.
Logorhythmics: why is it needed?
People have long noticed that movement has a healing effect. Tired - take a walk in the park! If your nerves fail you, run! If you have no energy, do some exercises! And if the movement is accompanied by speech or singing, the effect will be enhanced many times over. Doctors have repeatedly spoken about the relationship between movement and health: studies from the middle of the last century have confirmed that regular movements in a certain rhythm improve well-being, elevate mood and can even overcome a variety of diseases. This is how logorhythmics appeared - a specialized speech therapy technique that helps the speech development of children.
As you know, speech is a complex process in which several “elements” are involved: breathing, the work of the oral cavity, the interaction of the nervous system and sensory organs. And the failure of at least one of these components, as a rule, causes problems in the operation of the entire mechanism. Thanks to logorhythmics, it is possible to restore the integrity of the system and make its operation more stable.
Among the advantages that logarithmics provides, it is worth noting that it trains memory, attention and perception (especially auditory) and has an extremely positive effect on the physical condition of the child, helping him to learn correct motor skills.
As a result of logorhythmic exercises, the following tasks are realized:
- clarification of articulation;
- development of phonemic awareness;
- expansion of vocabulary;
- development of auditory attention and motor memory;
- improving gross and fine motor skills;
- development of clear, coordinated movements in conjunction with speech;
- development of melodic-intonation and prosodic components;
- creativity and imagination.
Logorhythmics classes also develop motor skills (gross and fine), speech breathing and normalize muscle tone. In addition, it is an excellent “regulator” of the psycho-emotional state of children: it calms easily excitable children, and, on the contrary, activates slow ones.
Classes include finger games or finger massage, eye gymnastics, various types of walking and running to music, poems accompanied by movements, speech therapy gymnastics, facial exercises, and there may also be relaxation exercises to music, speaking, speech and musical games.
When is logarithmics needed?
There are several situations where logorhythmics will be especially effective. These include cases when:
- the child has a stutter or a hereditary predisposition to it;
- the child has excessively fast/slow or intermittent speech;
- the baby has insufficiently developed motor skills and coordination of movements;
- The little one gets sick often;
- The child is characterized by dysarthria, delayed speech development, and impaired pronunciation of certain sounds;
- for children who are in a period of intensive speech formation (usually between the ages of 2.5 and 4 years).
If a 2-year-old child does not speak or speaks poorly, it makes sense to try logarithmics. At this age, it is very difficult to carry out speech therapy - the child gets tired quickly, cannot perform articulatory gymnastics, etc. For older children who are already working with a speech therapist, logorhythmics can also help in terms of reinforcing sounds, practicing fluency of speech, improving motor coordination, and teaching communication skills.
Intensive development of speech occurs in children starting from the age of three. Logorhythmics for children not only helps their development, but also strengthens the muscular system and forms proper breathing. By synchronizing movements with text, this technique allows you to form the basics of phonemic hearing and speech tempo. It also plays an important role in the development of correct posture and the development of motor coordination.
Early development of a child’s speech is now a rarity. If twenty years ago most children at the age of one and a half to two years old recited short poems with expression, today there are very few such children. The majority of children begin to speak more or less coherently only by the age of three. There are no explanations why this happens. Perhaps because it has become fashionable to develop children from the cradle, to brag that already at the age of 4 a son or daughter can perform simple mathematical operations and read fluently. In the preschool period, the child’s right hemisphere of the brain develops, and the left hemisphere is responsible for connections between letters. Therefore, by intensively developing the wrong thing, parents ensure that the child may have problems in the future: he will read perfectly, but will not be able to perform sound-letter analysis or find cause-and-effect relationships.
Logorhythmics for kids helps the expressiveness of facial movements, teaches children to recognize and show emotional states, synchronizing them with music. It is both a preventive and corrective method.
For children 7 years old
At the age of 7, preschoolers can perform complex tasks in logarithmics.
What animal is this
One player moves to the music, depicting a specific animal with body movements, facial expressions and sounds. When the music stops, it freezes. The rest must guess what animal he was depicting.
Signalman
Make 3-4 claps with your palms in different rhythms, like Morse code. And the student must repeat them in the same rhythm. For example: 3 fast, 1 slow.
Mirror
To play musical logorhythmics, prepare pictures of people in different poses. Turn on the music and let the kids dance. As soon as the melody is interrupted, the players must take the pose of the person depicted in the displayed image.
Logorhythmics by Zheleznova for children
Teacher Ekaterina Zheleznova has developed a unique logorhythmics program for preschoolers of all age groups. Classes involve simultaneous performance of speech, motor and musical exercises.
The program includes:
- movements to music;
- finger games;
- imitative tales;
- fun exercises;
- outdoor games;
- gymnastics and aerobics;
- massage games;
- staging;
- lullabies.
Zheleznova’s logorhythmics programs for different age groups were released in the form of didactic manuals, recorded on audio and video, and can be found on the Internet.
