BOARD AND PRINT GAMES

desktop printed games — interesting activity, for kids. They are diverse in types: paired pictures, lotto, dominoes. The developmental tasks that are solved when using them are also different.

Pairs of pictures. The simplest task in such a game is to find two completely identical ones among different pictures: two hats that are the same in color and style, or two dolls that look no different from one another. Then the task becomes more complicated: the child combines the pictures not only by external signs, but also by meaning: for example, find two planes, two apples among all the pictures. Both the planes and the apples shown in the picture may be different in shape and color, but they are united, making them look like belonging to the same type of objects.

Selection of images by common feature (classification). Here some generalization is required, the establishment of a connection between objects. For example, in the game "What grows in the garden (in the forest, in the garden)?" children select pictures with the corresponding images of plants, correlate them with their place of growth, and combine pictures according to this feature. Or the game “What happened next?”: children select illustrations for a fairy tale, taking into account the sequence of development of plot actions.

Memorizing the composition, number and location of pictures. Games are played in the same way as with objects. For example, in the game “Guess which picture they hid”, children must remember the content of the pictures, and then determine which one was turned upside down by the picture. This game is aimed at developing memory, memorization and recall.

The game didactic tasks of this type of games are also to consolidate children's knowledge about quantitative and ordinal counting, about the spatial arrangement of pictures on the table (right, left, top, bottom, side in front, etc.), the ability to talk coherently about the changes that have occurred with pictures and their content.

Drafting split pictures and cubes. The purpose of this type of game is to teach children logical thinking, pour out their ability to make up a whole object from separate parts. The complication in these games can be an increase in the number of parts, as well as the complication of the content, the plot of the pictures. If in the younger group the pictures are cut into 2-4 parts, then in the middle and older groups the whole is divided into 8-10 parts. At the same time, for games in the younger group, the picture shows one object: a toy, a plant, items of clothing, etc. For older children, the picture already shows a plot from fairy tales familiar to children, works of art. The main requirement is that the objects in the pictures are familiar to children. The presence of the whole picture makes it easier to solve the problem. Therefore, for junior groups it is necessary to give the children the whole picture to look at before the task is given - to put the whole picture together from its parts.

Description, story about the picture showing actions, movements. In such games, the teacher sets the learning task, to develop not only the speech of children, but also imagination, creativity. Here, often the child, in order for the players to guess what is drawn in the picture, resorts to imitation of the movements of, say, a worker, or to imitation of the movements of an animal, its voice. For example, in the game "Guess who it is?" the child, who took the card from the driver, carefully examines it, then depicts the sound and movements (cats, dogs, roosters, frogs, etc.). Such a task is given in the game with the children of the younger group.

In older groups, more difficult tasks are solved: some children depict the action drawn in the picture, others guess who is drawn in the picture, what people are doing there, for example, soldiers are marching, firefighters are putting out a fire, sailors are sailing on the sea, builders are building a house, an orchestra plays different instruments.

These games form valuable qualities the personality of the child, as the ability to reincarnate, to creative search in creating the necessary image.
