Sight words memory game

Be careful!

Moderator: “If I name something that or who can fly, you clap your hands once, but if it’s something else, then you can’t clap.” You can also clap your hands when you see a certain object.

Catch a fish

The facilitator holds one arm bent at the elbow - this is the sea.

The second hand represents a fish. If the fish emerges from the water, the child must catch it - clap your hands. Then we make the game harder. Add additional actions:

1. if the leader removes his hand behind his back (the fish hid behind a pebble), you need to stomp your foot;
2. if the host calls the word "seagull", the child should say in response: "Fly away."

Developing visuospatial functions

Fly

The child draws the flight path of the fly at the command of the leader: left, right, up, down, diagonally right, etc.

Far-close

Looking at objects in the environment, comparing them with each other.

Drawing with two hands

Attach a piece of Whatman paper to any vertical surface (door, wall, closet), give the child a pencil or felt-tip pen in each hand and invite the child to draw circles with both hands at the same time:

• both hands draw circles from left to right, both hands draw circles from right to left,
• the right hand draws from left to right while the left hand draws from right to left at the same time,
• The right hand draws from right to left, while the left hand draws from left to right at the same time.

Developing memory

Couples

The player needs to remember a combination of two words, both suitable in meaning and not.

Remember and repeat

The host thinks of several movements or a sequence of words. The players repeat.

Mnemonics

Inventing unusual visual images to memorize words.

Developing thinking

We are going on a trip

“Let's imagine that we have a long and long journey ahead of us. What to bring? The question that arises in front of every traveler. Name, without interrupting each other, the things necessary for the journey. The winner is the one who names the last one of the most necessary things on the journey.

Notes: It should be noted that this game can drag on for an indefinitely long time. And all because the guys “took on a trip” not the most necessary things at all: electric stoves, beloved dogs, bicycles, TVs, even grandmothers, etc. Don't play!

3 liter can

Any letter can be selected. All players in turn begin to list words (nouns, in the singular, nominative case, without diminutive suffixes) for the selected letter, but at the same time such that they can be “put” in a three-liter jar. For example. We chose the letter "C". Words such as “matches”, “straw”, “sulfur” can “fit” into it ... But you cannot put “table”, “knock”, “chest”. Also, you can not "put" the drawn objects. The game seems easy at first, but after a while it gets harder and harder. The player who does not find more of the right words is out. The one with the most words wins.

Number game

If you are driving a car or walking down the street, you can play number games with a child of any age:

• Learn numbers by looking for cars with certain numbers in the numbers;
• Learn the alphabet by choosing cars with certain letters of the alphabet;
• Learn to compare - find cars with 2 duplicate or consecutive numbers;
• Learn to count - add up the numbers in the number plate in front of the moving car or look for cars with a certain value of the sum of all the numbers.

Guessing game

Guess an object that is in the children's field of vision. The rules are the same as for the game above. Participants ask probing questions about the characteristics of the item that can only be answered with “yes” or “no”.

Sea battle, tic-tac-toe are well-known and popular games. All they need is paper and pencils.

Developing vocabulary

One letter

An adult asks the children to look around the room and name all objects that begin with the letter "K" (or any other letter). The winner is the one who is the last to name the word with the letter "K". (cubes, paints, books, cat, cornice…”

Word by word

The adult defines the topic, for example, “Birds starting with the letter C”. First player starts: bullfinch (or other bird). The child repeats this word and adds his own: for example, bullfinch, tit ... The next player repeats these two words and adds his own: bullfinch, tit, magpie. The game continues until someone fails.

Only funny words

The leader determines the topic. It is necessary to call in turn, for example, only funny words. The first player says: "Clown". The second: "joy", the third - "laughter", etc. The game continues until the words run out. You can change the subject and name only green words, only round words, only spiky ones, etc.

Good-bad

An adult introduces a child to some phenomenon (object, image), say, rain, and asks him to answer the question: what is good about rain?

Children express their opinion (for example, “he feeds the earth”, “I like to look at him”, “he washes away dirt and dust from the roads”, etc.

Then the adult asks: what is wrong with rain?

Children speak out: “no one goes for a walk”, “it gets cold and you can get sick”, etc.

An adult might also ask this question: How do we decide if rain is good or bad?

Or this: rain is good for whom and what?

Rain is bad for whom and what?

In this game, you can also use controversial images (Barmaley, fear, illness).

From bad to good

An adult offers children to play transformations: make good out of bad, good out of evil, strong out of weak.

He writes or pronounces a word, for example, “angry” and suggests gradually, choosing words, to turn the word (for example, “angry” - “angry” - “displeased” - tolerant - sympathetic - "attentive" - ​​"caring" - "Kind").

You can try such transformations with any pair of antonyms.

General word

The leader pronounces the first syllable. All other participants in a circle add one letter at a time so that the word is beautiful, unusual, not much like anything else. If one of the participants feels that there is no need to add anything, that the word is ready, he says “Stop!”. The word is repeatedly pronounced, sung, whispered, so that everyone can think what it could mean, and everyone gives his own version of the meaning of the word.

For example: Livefuravia is rain in the tropics; this is a fairy planet.

Fairy tales inside out (based on D. Rodari)

An adult invites children in a well-known fairy tale to swap the main characters in places, i.e. to make the good ones evil, the brave ones cowardly, etc. For example, let the children invent and tell a fairy tale "Teremok" so that the teremok collapsed not because of the bear, but because of the mouse.

What happened next?

An adult invites children to come up with a sequel to one of the famous fairy tales. For example, he tells or reads the fairy tale "The Snow Maiden" and asks: what happened then, after the Snow Maiden turned into a cloud and rose into the sky?

Another great "fallback" option for keeping the kids entertained on the road is to let the kids offer you their games. They love it very much.

Memory games | Methodical development on the topic:

Students' knowledge of the features of their memory will help them not only overcome shortcomings, but also find an individual memorization style.

The teacher's task is to help the student in this search and stimulate the development of his memory.

The development of memory through the installation of memorization.

"Remember the commands" game.

Purpose: to learn to memorize commands at once (with a gradual increase in the number of commands from 3 to 7).

Game progress.

1). The adult gives the child the task of memorizing several commands and naming them. For example: "Field the flowers, put the scissors in place, find the ball."

2). The child repeats the commands aloud and performs them in order.

3). Parents evaluate the completed task: for each memorized and completed command, one or another number of points is established.

4). Game continues. In the new task, the number of teams increases.

Development of memory selectivity.

Tasks.

Note. Each time the child receives no more than one of the tasks listed below.

1. Remember today.

• what did you learn at school? (In a circle? From a book? From comrades?)
• what was good? (bad?)

6. Game "Remember only the names of flowers" (or animals, or toys, or vehicles, etc. )

Each player has a sheet of paper and a pen. The facilitator tells the names of which items should become objects for memorization, and pronounces a series of words. For example: TV, bus, bread, poppy, plane, etc. The participants in the game must listen to the words from beginning to end, memorize only those that are set according to the condition of the game, then write them down in any order.

One point for each memorized word. Words intended for memorization, maybe 6-10.

Development of the amount of memorized material.

1. Repeat game.

The players sit in a circle. One of the players names an animal, let's say a fox. The next one repeats the word fox and adds the name of another animal: bear. The third says: fox, bear - and adds the word tiger. Each playing player, after listing all the previously named animals, says one more word. If someone fails to repeat the names of all the animals or mixes up their order (the leader monitors this), he is eliminated from the game. The list of animals is growing, it is becoming more and more difficult to remember it. The one with the best memory wins.

When repeating the game, you can choose words on other topics.

2. Look and remember game.

The game is played while walking. The child is invited to remember in detail everything that he sees in front of him in 5-10 minutes. For example, if this is a house, how many floors, windows, doors, balconies does it have, is there an antenna, etc. if there is a corner of the park in the field of view, then what kind of trees are there, what is their height, the thickness of the trunks, etc.

After the time has elapsed, the participant in the game is turned in the opposite direction and asked to list what they have memorized. The leader can ask questions. For example: “What color is the rest bench?”

One point is awarded for each correct answer.

3. Say the sixth game.

Several people are playing. One of the players is the driver. He addresses someone with a sentence: "Say the sixth" - and quickly names five plants (or animals, birds, fish, insects, etc.) in a row. The one to whom the driver addressed should immediately name the sixth word on the same topic. You cannot repeat what the driver said.

If the answer is on time, then the answerer drives, if not, the driver remains the same.

Bad watchman.

A housewife's mice ate bacon in the cellar, then she locked the cat in the cellar. And the cat ate both fat and meat and also drank milk.

Jackdaw and doves.

Jackdaw heard that pigeons are well fed. She painted herself white and flew into the dovecote. Pigeons accepted her as their own, fed her. But the jackdaw could not resist and croaked like a tick. Then the pigeons chased her away. She was about to return to the jackdaws, but they also drove her away.

Smart Jackdaw.

The jackdaw wanted to drink. There was a jug of water in the yard, and there was only water in the jug at the bottom. The jackdaw couldn't get it. She began to throw pebbles into the jug and threw in so many that the water rose higher and it became drinkable.

Ant and dove.

The ant wanted to get drunk and went down to the stream. The wave swept over him and he began to sink. A dove flying past noticed this and threw a branch into the stream. An ant climbed this branch and escaped. The next day, the ant saw that the hunter wanted to catch the dove in a net. He crawled up to the hunter and bit him in the leg. The hunter screamed in pain and dropped the net. The dove fluttered and flew away.

Exercises for the development of logical or semantic memory.

Students read three words, united in meaning, while paying attention to the logical connection that exists between the words. For example: forest - bear - lair. The teacher reads aloud six lines of three words each.

The facilitator sequentially names the words, after each word counts up to three. During this time, the participants in the game must have time to draw the named word with any drawing to memorize. Let the drawing be not entirely clear to others, if only the player could then name the words in order. Whoever remembers the most words wins.

Then the player of the second team begins to tell the text, again up to the first mistake, etc. In this way, the player who will tell more than others or reproduce the entire text is determined. He will be the winner.

Text and noun

The facilitator reads the text, explains what is needed, how best to remember it. The retelling will take place collectively. In order to remember better, each of the participants must mentally divide the text into many small parts, and instead of a large and detailed story, they must name a noun that fully corresponds to this small piece. Moreover, each subsequent participant in the game repeats the noun named by the other player and adds his own. This game not only develops memory, but also teaches schoolchildren to highlight the main thing in the text, educational material, i.e. organize thinking and memory.

Songs game

The first participant sings a verse of any song, the second must remember and sing the verse of the second song, but in which there must be at least one word from the previous song. The third recalls and sings a verse from another song that contains at least one word from the previous one, and so on. Anyone who cannot pick up a song within one minute is out of the game.

Members of each team watch them. At the signal of the leader, the representatives of each team must repeat the movements of the opponent's dancer as accurately as possible. The jury evaluates motor memory, determines the winning team, and then the player with the best motor memory.
