Getting to know the sound "U"

First of all, it is necessary to explain the difference between a sound and a letter. Sound is what we can hear and pronounce, and letters denote the sounds of speech, we see them, write them. nine0003

Acquaintance with sound begins with the awareness of articulation, the study of a graphic representation of the sound profile.

Features of articulation: the lips are in the form of a tube and extended as far forward as possible. The back of the tongue is raised, the tongue moves away from the lower teeth. The vocal cords work, the throat trembles. The air is exhaled without barriers. To better understand the articulation and reproduction of the sound "U", invite the child to put his hand on his throat, he will feel a slight vibration of the ligaments.

The child then learns how to correctly reproduce sound through articulation. If he doesn’t succeed right away, offer to review the profile and repeat. nine0003

Sound pronunciation is inextricably linked with phonemic perception. Therefore, further exercises are performed to isolate the sound by ear in different parts of the word, from the group of other vowels. It is more difficult to distinguish vowels than consonants. It is necessary to start with simple tasks: Say a chain of sounds, hearing the sound “U”, the baby should clap his hands.

Gradually complicate the task: say syllables, words. First, choose words for the children with the sound “U” at the beginning of the word, then at the end and in the middle. Explain what the sound scheme of the word is and what colors indicate each sound. As a result, children should be able to determine the number of sounds in a word. nine0003

At the end, the designation of sound by a letter is studied and its visual image is formed.

Printed letter "U" for preschoolers

After visual familiarization with the new letter, the words in which it is contained, you can proceed to writing. First of all, the child must master the printed character, show what fragments it consists of (sticks, circles, hooks, etc.). Let him try to write blanks for the letter.

As soon as the kid masters the skill of writing individual elements, move on to learning the whole letter. To do this, you can use copybooks or put dots on your own in a notebook so that the child connects them. Another great option is to use stencils, circling them trains visual memory. nine0003

It is necessary to write every day, but no more than 15-20 minutes.

Tasks with the letter "U" for the development of the baby

Most children are not diligent, it is difficult for them to concentrate. Often, learning becomes torture for both children and parents. In this case, fun games will help. They develop phonemic hearing, thinking, imagination and train memory.

Continue the phrase

Offer to play a game where you read the phrase and they have to complete it. Pay attention to the children that in all answer words the letter "U" occurs at the beginning of the word. nine0003

That's why no one wanted to be friends with her, neither the duckling, nor the snail, nor the youngsters. One day "U" decided to go fishing, to fish. I took a fishing rod and went to the river. nine0003

Recommendations for classes

  1. It makes no sense to start learning the alphabet before the age of 4, before this age children are not ready to learn psychologically, their speech apparatus is poorly developed. Preschoolers perceive information more easily, are more assiduous.
  2. Teachers recommend starting learning with those sounds that are formed earlier, these are vowels: a, y, e, and, o. Then you can switch to vowels consisting of two sounds: e, e, y, i. nine0008
  3. Use visual methods for teaching: pictures, objects.
  4. Alternate auditory, visual, tactile activities during class.
  5. When learning a new letter, ask them to come up with as many words as possible with this sound, or ask them to find objects in the room that begin with the sound.
