Didactic games in Russian language lessons

Russian language is one of the most difficult subjects in school. Therefore, it is necessary to develop students' interest in this subject even in elementary school, to make it as joyful and exciting as possible.

One of the most effective means that can arouse interest in Russian language classes is a didactic game. The purpose of the game is to arouse interest in knowledge, science, books, teachings. At primary school age, the game, along with learning, occupies an important place in the development of the child. When children are included in the situation of a didactic game, interest in learning activity increases sharply, the material being studied becomes more accessible to them, and their working capacity increases significantly.

After all, the fact that the game is part of the educational process is not a secret for anyone. The game helps to form the phonemic perception of the word, enriches the child with new information, activates mental activity, attention, and most importantly, stimulates speech. As a result, children have an interest in the Russian language. Not to mention the fact that didactic games in the Russian language contribute to the formation of the spelling vigilance of a younger student.

Over the course of several years of work in primary school, I observed that Russian language classes do not always arouse interest among students. Some kids find it boring. The unwillingness to study Russian breeds illiteracy. I thought about how to arouse interest in classes, how to improve writing literacy.

I re-read a lot of literature, analyzed my lessons and came to the conclusion that it is possible to arouse interest in the Russian language if you systematically accumulate and select fascinating material that can attract the attention of each student.

Here are some didactic games and game techniques that I use in my lessons.

1. Make words from the following letters:

2. Decipher what words are hidden here and say which word from the data is superfluous.

3. Decipher the words and say what common word they can be combined with .

4. Decipher the words and say what groups they can be divided into.

II. The game "Confusion"

Decipher the words

GONVA, ZDEVE, OKZAVL, ENNESERKSOV, STOKOVO, MOVEMENT, CHVREA (car, everywhere, station, Sunday, east, ahead, KILINBILZIVA

3 , GLUBV, DRUGV

(vaseline, cornflower, near, deep, suddenly)

(hero, hot, ready, December, road, goodbye.)

AB…IKO…, AV…OGRA…, AK…AREL…, AK…ARIU… .

(Apricot, autograph, watercolor, aquarium.)

KONBAL, NABAN, RERAB, ATOBN (balcony, banana, barrier, loaf)

KARKAMOR, LEYAKO, ZYREKKO, MOUSE (closet, rut, visor, reed)

OKGEL

ONNELDEM

NIKAZELLA

ANCILEST

SYAMETS

ANITRAK

GAZMAIN

FEEL

INERGEN

CARFELTO

YALURTSAK

RAQUARTI

(easy, stairs, shop, potatoes, slow, month, hello, saucepan, strawberry, painting, engineer, flat)

DBOE, GUROETS, AOSIN, CETO (lunch, cucumber, aspen, father)

TAMELL, ORTEM, KOMOVR, AZAND, LENAVO, OVARPAN (metal, metro, carrot, back, left, right)

TOIG, RIZKAP, ZENOYAM, VMOTI, BOZNO

(total, caprice, mayonnaise, motif, chills. )

(Rocket, story, distance, plant, solve, drawing)

(Which word is superfluous here? (Solve" is a verb, the rest is a noun)

( The game is used to consolidate any topics in the Russian language)

Purpose: To follow the formation of spelling skills, taking into account the stage of work on spelling

The choice of words depends on the topics studied or covered.0003

Nine words are written on 9 cards:

1st set: fish, blizzard, stocking, oak trees, jam, scarecrow, streams, plague, mushroom.

2nd set : entrance, warehouse, crow, hail, filming, treasure, gate, lift, sparrow.

Two people take cards in turn, the winner is the one who first has three words with the same spelling.

IV. The game "Nicknames"

Purpose: formation of the process of inflection and word formation, consolidation of phonetic and grammatical analysis of words, spelling of proper names.

Move: Form animal names from the following words:

BALL, ARROW, EAGLE, RED, STAR

Write sentences.

BALL, ARROW, EAGLE, GINGER, STAR

Highlight the part of the word that you used when composing nicknames (suffix, ending).

Purpose: To consolidate students' knowledge of selecting a test word, expand vocabulary, develop phonemic hearing.

Move: The postman distributes invitations to a group of children (4-5 people each).

Children determine where they are invited.

Tasks:

1. Explain spellings by choosing test words.
2. Make sentences using the given words.

Didactic task: Repeat the case endings of nouns.

Game task: Complete the story from which the bear “ran away”.

Content of the game: “Look at this story. You see it with passes. Actually, this is a story about a bear, but the bear himself escaped from it. Please return the word “bear” to the sentences, replacing the endings with questions.”

Materials: “Not every hunter had a chance to meet (whom?).... It is dangerous to approach (to whom?) Closely. I saw (who?)... at the zoo. In the forest you can watch (for whom?) for ... only from a distance. The forester told us a lot of interesting things (about whom?) about...”

Purpose of the game: to create conditions for fixing the composition of the word, to teach to see a word that differs from the rest in its composition.

Now guys, let's play a little. Three trains have arrived at the station. Each train consists of four cars. When the cars were attached to the train, they made a mistake by attaching an extra car that did not fit this train (three trains appear on the board). You guys need to find that extra car. The words written on each wagon will help you do this.

Hint. Extra words differ from other words written on the cars in their composition.

Each row gets its own train, before making a decision, discuss it with your row, determine the person who will express a common opinion.

race, swim, law, launch.

• Word, on which car is this extra?
• Extra word law, on the third carriage?
• Why?

The words written on the remaining three cars have a prefix, but the word law has no prefix.

That's right guys, well done. The extra car has been removed from the train. The train can continue on its way. Now write down all the words, except for the word law, and highlight the prefixes in them.

kettle, coffee pot, milk jug, broom.

• Which word is superfluous.
• The word broom is superfluous, since, unlike other words, it does not have
  suffixes.
• Write down the words with suffixes.

Train number 2 can continue. Well done boys.

watch, win, think, mourn.

• What a wagon, this is superfluous.
• A car with the word win, since this word does not have a prefix.
• Write down words with prefixes.

Well done guys. You did a good job.

Purpose: to create conditions for repeating the spelling of hard and soft characters.

Students are divided into two teams. One team is called "Stone", the other - "Water". The “Stone” team gets up if I read a word with a hard sign, if I read a word with a soft sign, the “Water” team gets up.

Words: congress, enter, blizzard, pours, entrance, pour, announcement, stakes, runners, detour, ears of corn, drink, filming, etc.

- Where does the beet grow? (in the garden)

- Where are the letters written? (In a notebook)

- What do we clean in the morning? (Teeth)

- Are we dressing in the cold? (fur coats)

- We love to play ... (snowballs)

- Eat for the holiday ... (pies)

(What do the words have in common? There is a suffix -to-)

In the development of a child's speech, his creative thinking, the game "Help the Pencil" is of great importance. A cheerful pencil with a poster on which the words are written comes to visit the children. The pencil thought about how best to draw a picture. “Children help the pencil, make up a story.

It turned out like this picture (on the reverse side there is a picture of summer, autumn, winter, spring).

(name not objects, but actions of objects). Yes(et), po(et), be(ret), zhi(et)…

The teacher writes down a noun on the blackboard, it is necessary to form a chain of words from it so that each subsequent noun begins with the letter that stands at the end of the previous one. Determine the gender and number of a noun
Fur coat - album - shop - legs - ... etc.

(the names of vegetables are written on the cards) The essence of the game: the first student collects masculine nouns, and the other feminine.

The teacher will put the cut out consonants on the board: t, d, c, l. Students should write down as many words as possible with these unpronounceable consonants. For example,

Game technologies allow creating favorable conditions for gaining knowledge of the Russian language.
