    Summary of organized educational activities on FEMP topic: “The place of a number among other numbers, the composition of the number 4, 5 from two smaller numbers. Solving logical problems. (preparatory group)

    GOALS:

    Strengthen skills:

    • Compare groups of objects, numbers on a visual basis;
    • Determine the place of a number among other numbers in a series;
    • Establish patterns in solving logical problems
    • Fix the compilation of the number 4.5 from two smaller numbers.

    The teacher draws the children's attention to an unusual tree. Instead of leaves, there are numbers on it (2 sets of different colors).

    Educator: What an extraordinary magical tree! Guys, why is it magical?

    Children: Because instead of leaves, numbers grow there.

    Educator: Oh, guys, someone hid here. Want to know who?

    Children: Yes!

    Educator: Then guess the riddle:

    This little girl wears
    Red dress with polka dots.
    And he knows how to fly deftly
    This is ... (ladybug)

    Children find a ladybug with an envelope on a tree.

    Ladybug: Hello guys! I have prepared many tasks for you. I will be very interested to play with you. Do you want to play?

    Children: Yes!

    The teacher takes out assignments from the envelope. Children sit on chairs.

    Task 1: Name the neighbors of the number I will sit on.

    2 task: Name what numbers the numbers 4.5 consist of.

    3 task: Tear off all the numbers from the tree and quickly get together in teams according to the color of the numbers and in order. (Several numbers are missing in the number row)

    4 task Go guys to the magic clearing. mushroom and 3 flowers.) How many leaves are in the clearing? How many flowers are in the meadow? How many mushrooms are in the clearing? What more? (The child answers: There are more leaves in the clearing than mushrooms and flowers.) What is less? (the child answers: There are the least mushrooms in the clearing.) How many fewer mushrooms than flowers? (The child answers: There are 1 fewer mushrooms in the clearing than flowers) How many more leaves than mushrooms in the clearing? (The child answers: There are 2 more leaves than mushrooms.
