Raising a child begins at birth.Growing up, he begins to learn about the world. At about 3-4 years old the child goes to kindergarten. In the garden, he is given the necessary knowledge, skills and abilities that the child develops through the systematic repetition of the necessary exercises.
What is taught in kindergarten?
In kindergarten, a child learns to be seven years old. After that, the child is sent to school, in the first grade. In the gardens, children are taught work, elementary skills, provide the necessary knowledge.
В 3-4 года дети учатся правильно держать ручки, pencils, spoons, etc., to look after yourself and your clothes, get acquainted with numbers and letters, as well as with geometric shapes. To consolidate the knowledge and summarize the existing ones, the teacher conducts didactic games.
At the age of 5-6, children begin to be prepared for admission tothe school. At this age, they learn to count within 10, to compare objects, to orient themselves in space, to write graphic dictations and letters, to read, to carry out crafts from geometric figures, to get acquainted with geometric bodies.
In addition to knowledge and skills, it is necessary to developchildren logical thinking. Teach them to think outside the box, find extra objects or words. Logic needs to be developed with the help of certain didactic games aimed at this topic.
Representations of geometric shapes
First of all, children are introduced to suchshapes like square, circle, oval, rectangle, triangle. When preschoolers are well versed in them and can accurately name each, it is necessary to introduce new concepts: polygon, trapezium and rhombus.
Having introduced the existing figures, the tutor not only repeats their names with the children, but also teaches how to make crafts of geometric shapes, for example: a house, a tree, a chicken, a bunny, etc.
In the future, geometric figures will be found in tasks in mathematics, drawing, and appliqué.
As soon as the children remembered all the figures, the educatorintroduces the concept of "geometric body." Geometric shapes are different from geometric bodies, so the teacher focuses the attention of preschoolers on their differences and features. It is very important to teach the children to depict figures on a sheet, and also to cut them out of colored paper.
When making paper crafts, geometric figures must be placed in front of you for comparison or sample. At the first stages, you can use templates for clarity.
Volumetric crafts
If at the very beginning children only get acquainted withgeometric bodies, then by 5-6 years they should be able to draw the desired shape, be able to cut it. All work should be done without the help of adults or peers.
Also, at the age of 5-6 years, children should be able to perform crafts from volumetric geometric shapes. The work takes place under the supervision of an educator and with step-by-step instructions.
- Preschoolers review and analyze a sample of work (clarify what geometric shapes they will draw).
- Perform a drawing of the desired shape on colored paper.
- Making sure that all the figures are depicted correctly, cut out.
- Using glue, join all the parts together.
- The work is ready, you can take the teacher.
As a result, children get the desired volume crafts.
Crafts from geometric shapes
Any item can be presented using colorpaper in the form of geometric shapes. The main thing is your imagination. For example, if it is necessary to depict a house, the walls, windows will be in the form of a square, the roof will be a triangle, the chimney and the door will be a rectangle. "Draw" a bear: head, paws, ears - a circle, nose - a triangle, and the body - square. In the fish: the body - triangles, eyes - circles.
The order of execution of crafts, consisting of geometric shapes
- First you need to decide on the application.
- Having chosen the desired pattern, the children view and name all the geometric shapes in the picture.
- They select certain colors and draw the necessary figures.
- Cut out each shape along the contour.
- Start gluing parts. It is important to remember that at the beginning the biggest detail is glued together, and small ones are superimposed on top of it.
- When performing work, children demonstrate crafts to the caregiver.
Thus, performing crafts from geometricfigures, children develop fine motor skills of hands, as well as skills to work with geometric material. Using your imagination, you can depict any application of the desired shapes.
