I would print these out and laminate them for kids to be able to practice over and over again. I love that it has multiple ways for kids to practice this math concept, without being overwhelming. I could see this turned into a poster as well, by simply completing the box and circling the 1s.

How cute is this fun math craft? It comes with templates for you to trace and cut the pieces or you can print them on colored paper and then cut them out. These are bound to be lots of fun! It is found on Teachers Pay Teacher for the low price of $3, which is money well spent, once you see these completed.

11. Number Fishbowl

Here's a cute activity that will also help with cutting skills. Kids get to choose a fish to glue in the fishbowl. Although it's not stated on the sheet, I would also have students practice writing the number 1 on the lines at the top of the page.

Kids can use all different objects for this, but I think that cars would be best. Using real objects helps reinforce the skill. Minnie on the top makes this math activity even better. I would anchor them on construction paper and laminate them so they can be used over and over.

Kids can decorate their puppets however they like and use them in a class play or just play with them in pairs or small groups. If you have a number 1 poem or song to go along with them, it would add to the fun.

17. Felt Numbers

Cut out some felt number 1's and have kids add googly eyes and a dot. Using more concrete objects is beneficial in the earlier stages of number instruction. This "one" can be cut out of any color felt you'd like and you can let your students select the dot color as well.

Stamps, stickers, and more can be used to help preschool students learn the number 1 with a visual representation. I like an activity that can be easily adjusted to suit your needs and is one that any preschool child will enjoy.

Find the number one and cover it with a paint fingerprint. This is such a fun number activity for preschool students, which may get messy, but is going to help them be able to identify the number 1.

Trace the number, write it, and color one ladybug. This activity gives kids a good foundation in math and is something that most should be able to do independently. This fun math sheet is guaranteed to please.

Lesson lesson lesson lesson №1

Teacher

Zatsepina E.M.

Michurinsk

Introductory lesson: "Introduction"

Lesson in progress.

1. Introductory speech of the teacher.

Dear guys! Congratulations on the start of school! Today is the first time you sat at your desks at school. May you not be a student yet. But we will have real lessons.

We will get to know each other, learn

school rules, that is, we will learn to be students. You will learn to sit at your desk, write, read. I wish you all success! Let's start our first lesson.

Let's play a game? I'll ask you questions, if you agree, clap your hands.

-Did you come from home?

- Is it spring now?

- Who is in a good mood today?

Let me try to guess. Why are you so happy today.

- Because you are very smart and beautiful today?

- Because you came to school for the first time today?

- Because you met your teacher today?

All this is very good, children, but you must really want to get to know me better, right?

Teacher: My name is... If you forget my name, come up to me and ask. Good? I am your first teacher. I dreamed of becoming a teacher since childhood. I like children very much. I have…. I love... I don't like... My biggest passion is... You and I will study together, and I will always be happy to help you.

I'll tell you about everything:

Why there is thunder,

Both about the north and about the south,

And about everything that is around,

About the bear, about the fox

And about the berries in the forest.

I will teach you how to draw,

Build, sew and embroider.

Guys, try to guess what the riddle is about:

The house is standing on the street,

The kids are in a hurry to get to it.

They carry notebooks, books

Boys and girls. (School.)

-Where are you now? (We are at school.)

And what is this riddle about:

Girls and boys are here

They take out notebooks, books.

Work hard,

Listen carefully.

Those children are one family.

Who are they, I ask you?

(Class, schoolchildren, pupils.)

At each lesson, fairy tale characters will “learn” with you. Today, cheerful Carlson came to our lessons. (Slide 2) He, too, has never been to school, but would really like to learn everything.

2. Acquaintance with the rules of conduct at school, in the classroom.

Teacher. You met me, and our fairy-tale hero too, but how can I get to know you? I came up with! Now I will count to three, and you will all say your names out loud together.

- Agreed? One two Three! I didn’t understand anything, some: Wow!

-Let's get louder! One two Three!

- Guys, what's the matter, why can't I hear your names? When everyone speaks at the same time, there is noise, it is difficult for me to understand what you are saying. What to do?

Children offer different options. We must first try to voice everything except the raised hand. During the discussion, the teacher leads the children to this rule.

Teacher: Listen, children, what does Carlson offer us - raise your hand? Guys, let's try to get to know each other in this way: if you want to answer, raise your hand. Show how to raise your hand. How else can you raise your hand, children? Let's choose the most convenient way to raise your hand. (Introduction of the sign) (Slide 3).

The school has a rule:

“If you want to talk, raise your hand!”

(The teacher shows how to raise your hand correctly.)

(Thus, together with the children, we established a new rule and immediately stipulated its implementation. )

- Why do we need this rule? (To get acquainted).

Teacher: Let's try. Who wants to tell us their name?

(The teacher asks three or four children to use the new rule).

Although we have a small, but already a school. And the school has other rules. Do you want to know which ones?

If you want to answer, don't make noise.

Just raise your hand.

If you want to answer, you have to get up,

When they let you sit down, sit down.

A desk is not a bed

And you can't lie on it.

You sit at your desk harmoniously

And behave with dignity.

And now I want to get to know you better. I know how to do it. Now you will raise your hands according to the rule when you hear the task. Be careful! So, we started:

- Hands up... boys.

- The girls raise their hands.

- Those who have a pet raise their hands.

- Those who love ice cream raise their hands.

- Those who have bows raise their hands.

- Those who live on the street ... (street name) raise their hands.

- Those who will study in the 1st grade raise their hands. (All children raise their hands, the teacher checks the correctness of the answers).

- That's great, now I found out which of you like ice cream and which have pets.

Do you guys like working under the new rule? So you agree to accept him into our school life?

Summary of the lesson.

- Was it interesting?

-What school rule do we have now?

- When should you raise your hand?

- What else very important happened at the lesson today? Why do people meet?

-Since we have become friends, let's thank each other.

Reading

Theme of the lesson: "Introduction to speech, letters."

Lesson objectives: to introduce children to letters; introduce the concepts of "vowels", "consonants"; learn to find a working line in a notebook; instill a love of reading; work on language development.

1. Physical education minute "Steam locomotive". (Slide 4).

(Elbow movement, signal).

The locomotive hummed and the wagons were taken!

Choo-choo-choo, choo-choo-choo I will rock you far away!

The green trailers are running, running, running

And the round wheels are all thump, thump, thump!

2. Statement of the topic and purpose of the lesson.

Look where we've come. We are in an unknown country called "Speech" (Slide 5).

And in order not to be afraid, you need to get to know its inhabitants.

Everything we say is speech. Guess what is the name of the speech that we are using now? (Voiced, beautiful, etc.)

-Such speech is called oral, because we use our mouth (mouths), we pronounce everything with the help of a vocal apparatus, when the work of the lips is clearly visible. We use oral speech when we talk, listen, ask. Oral speech we hear and pronounce.

- Everything that we have just talked about is oral speech.

-But besides oral speech, there is speech, which is marked with letters in books and newspapers. We are reading it. This is written language. We master the skills of writing in the process of learning to write.

-Now listen to the poem:

The autumn forest rustled

Golden foliage.

Parting with the warm summer

We are sad with you.

The bell will ring,

Sonorous and cheerful.

Today he invites all the children

to school.

A maple will knock on the window

With a red and yellow paw,

And a sparrow will chirp:

Good luck, guys!

-What speech did you just hear?

(A picture of a castle hangs on the board, in which we will put the learned letters. On the one hand, vowels, on the other, consonants)

Picture of a castle (Slide 6).

Vowels stretch in a ringing song

They can cry and scream.

In the dark forest to call and call out

And in the cradle to cradle Alyonka,

But they don't know how to whistle and grumble.

A consonants agree

Rustle, whisper, creak.

Even snort and hiss,

But they don't want to sing.

3. Acquaintance with vowels.

A, o, u, s, i.

The teacher makes riddles, the children guess them, and the letters are placed on the lock.

Here are two posts diagonally,

And between them is a belt.

Do you know this letter? BUT?

The letter A is in front of you!

Game "Who is more?" (Slide 7).

Think of words that begin with the letter A.

Game "Tell me a word."

Riddles. (Slide 8).

1. It is as big as a soccer ball,

If ripe, everyone is happy.

It tastes so good.

And his name is (watermelon).

2. He is kinder than everyone in the world.

He heals sick animals,

And once a hippopotamus

He pulled out of the swamp.

He is famous, famous,

This is a doctor (Aibolit).

3. Let me take you,

I don't need oats.

Feed me gasoline, give me rubber for hooves,

And then, raising dust,

Run (car).

(Slide 9).

There is no corner in this letter,

That is why it is round.

Before she was round,

She could roll.

Riddles. (Slide 10).

(all answers start with the letter o).

1. Without windows, without doors,

The room is full of people. (Cucumber)

2. On a green fragile leg

A ball has grown near the path.

The breeze rustled

And scattered this ball. (Dandelion)

3. Not motors, but noise.

Not pilots, but flying.

Not snakes, but stings. (Wasps)

(Slide 11).

There is a knot in any forest

You will see the letter U.

Phonetic exercises. (Slide 12).

How does a wolf howl?

How does a baby cry in a stroller?

How do children call to each other in the forest?

How does a cuckoo crow?

(Slide 13).

Here is an ax, a log nearby.

The result is what you need:

The letter y is obtained -

All of you should know it.

Game "Lost letter". (Slide 14).

S-r, m-lo, r-s, r-tank.

(Slide 15).

I got the hammer.

He knocked down a letter from the planks.

How many boards are there?

Three!

What letter?

And!

Game "Name the letter and". (Slide 16).

Ira, Igor, Ivan, Inga, Inna, Ilya, Irina, Ilona.

Physical education minute. (Slide 17).

Are you tired?

Well, then everyone stood up together.

Stamped with feet,

Hands clapped.

They turned around, turned around

And everyone sat down at their desks.

We close our eyes tightly, and together we count up to 5.

We open. We blink

And we continue to work.

Sounds we hear and pronounce. To make the sounds visible, letters were invented to designate them

. Here is the alphabet. It is illustrated. (Slide 18).

(Put on the board a colorful alphabet with images of animals, birds or flowers on

each letter).

- Does a person need letters to transmit oral or written speech?

- The spelling of each letter consists of several elements. (Slide 19).

Summing up.

Help me complete the sentence:

- Everything we say is... (speech).

-Speech is... spoken and written

-We cannot see... (sound).

- To make a sound visible, it is necessary to designate it ... (with a sign or a letter).

The long-awaited call is given -

And the lesson ended. (Slide 20).

The long-awaited call is given -

The lesson begins. (Slide 20).

Chicken Chick hatched from the egg very first and now sat on the porch and waited for the rest of the chickens to hatch.

- Mom, you're sitting wrong! You see - no one hatches anymore!

The hen was so surprised that she just closed her eyes.

- Well, you sit down, - says Chick, - and I'll go for a walk. Chick went out into the field, went up to the flower and said:

- You bloom wrong! It is necessary to bloom downward with a flower, then all sorts of butterflies and beetles will not sit on you.

Said and moved on. Looks - the caterpillar crawls.

- Hey caterpillar, you're crawling wrong!

- How is it necessary? the caterpillar was surprised.

- We must curl up and roll, it will be faster! He said and moved on.

Looks - a heron catches frogs,

- Hey, heron, you're catching wrong! See it right! And how to jump into the swamp.

The end of Chick would have come, well, the heron pulled him out.

Educational activities for kids.

Are you playing correctly with your child? "What a strange question!" - exclaim most of the adults - "How can you play right or wrong?". That's the thing, it's possible! Let's take an ordinary pyramid. Playing with it, the kid alternately strings the elements onto the base and, usually, he quickly gets bored with this activity. And you explained to the baby that all the details are different in color and size, that you can assemble the pyramid in reverse, that this ring is red like mom's dress, and this one is green like grass, etc. Yes, 50% of parents do not even imagine that with a simple pyramid you can come up with many games. And all of them will belong to the category "Educational games for kids."

Dear parents and grandparents, remember the main thing - your children learn when they play. Try to help them! Undoubtedly, you can take your child to kindergarten, as well as to additional classes in a children's developing club, where there are ready-made programs and algorithms. But there is another alternative, to compose a complex of educational games on your own and train at home. Trust me, it's fun!

Educational activities for one-year-olds

By the first year of life, the child already tries to speak, understands what is being explained to him, is able to recognize and memorize objects. The task of the mother is to interest the baby, to concentrate his attention on the main thing. As for classes, you can use any bright objects at hand: mittens, pictures, toys, plastic containers and other items.

• Find an item. Hide a toy nearby and invite the baby to find it, while telling what color, size, shape it is. Invite the baby to repeat the name of the hidden toy with you. This game develops memory and imagination.
• Gymnastics for fingers. Develops fine motor skills well. Try to pick up verses in advance, so it will be more interesting for the child to depict with pens what is said in funny verses.
• Ball games. Even if the baby has not yet learned to walk, he will be happy to crawl after the ball and roll it. For classes, you can turn on fun music.
• Dancing. All children love to dance. Turn on the music, make movements and be sure to repeat everything aloud: “Right hand forward ...”. Such developmental activities for kids improve coordination of movements, form a spatial perception of the world.

Educational activities for children from 1 to 3 years old

Children from one year old love to repeat everything after adults. It's amazing how much they notice their parents. Use children's curiosity for educational activities.

• Role playing. Invite the child to take on the responsibilities of an adult: put the bear to bed, wash clothes for the doll, wash the dishes, fix the typewriter ... Be prepared to learn a lot about yourself that you didn’t notice before.
• The ratio of shapes, colors and sizes of objects. You can buy the appropriate games in the store, but practice has shown that it is sometimes more interesting for a child to deal with familiar things. Invite the baby to put large toys in the box first, then soft ones, then green ones, then round ones, etc. Oh, look, there are no more toys scattered around the room!
• Modeling. Modeling classes can start from 1.5 years. And optionally, run after plasticine. Make cookie dough and sculpt various shapes together. Teach your baby to make a sausage, a ball, a cake, and when he masters the simplest figures, move on to complex ones.
• Drawing. Do not rush to give the baby a pencil! Practice finger painting. To do this, use old wallpaper and special finger paints that are safe even if the baby puts his hands in his mouth.
• Outdoor activities. Walks in the fresh air can be combined with developing activities about the world around. There are so many interesting things around, pay the child's attention to all the details, talk about nature, people, houses, cars.

Educational activities for children from 3 to 5 years old

Three-year-old children usually speak well, are able to remember a lot of information, and begin to comprehend the alphabet and numbers. For parents, the main thing now is not to force the child to sit and tediously memorize rhymes and show you the necessary pictures in educational books. Don't forget the game, and only the game!

• Development of memory. Learn poems with your child - they are remembered faster. Play the game "Remember More Items": first lay out 3 items, let the child look, and then cover with a handkerchief and ask them to list. Gradually increase the number of items. Offer to switch roles, and try to deliberately make a mistake, let the baby tell you what is hidden under the scarf.
• Tell us about the properties and characteristics of objects. For example, that ice is cold and hard, a cow is a pet and loves hay, candy is sweet, and fish lives only in water, etc.
• Make riddles. Easy at first, then more difficult. Let the kid learn to think logically and compare facts.
• Read books. If the kid can already retell the entire content of the fairy tale, invite him to dream up: “What will happen if the fox did not eat the bun?”.
• Teach your child the etiquette of communication. He must know and be able to operate with such concepts as "thank you", "good morning", "goodbye". For these purposes, transfer all life situations to the game: put the doll to sleep, feed the bunny, receive guests.
