Learning to read for little ones. How to teach a child to read: correct and quick ways

In kindergarten, too, the beginning school year... Children gradually come from holidays. Many have learned the letters over the summer and are starting to read a little by syllables.

Where do syllable reading texts come from? Of course, from the ABC book. The old primers used by the grandmothers are interesting. The second source is the Internet. We also prepare texts for our pupils 5-6 years old, depending on the available skills, starting with simple and short texts. It is better to read a little, but often.

In the first reading texts by syllables, each sentence begins on a new line. This makes it easier for the guys to perceive the text. The first texts to be read in syllables should be printed large.

It is useful to accompany them with coloring pages - the usual work for preschoolers. The tasks are as follows.

1. First you need to read it to your mother, grandmother or someone else.
2. Colorize.
3. Sign the items in the picture.

Why is it worth writing words? When a child reads, hearing and sight interact. When he writes - auditory (I speak), visual (I fix the image of the word) and motor analyzers.

In addition to narrative texts, it is useful to use short, simple verses for reading syllables.

How to prepare texts for reading by syllable?

Parents teaching their child to read can prepare the material themselves. You need to know the following. Reading texts by syllables can look different. It all depends on how we divide the word into syllables.

1. Divide words into syllables as in the primer with hyphens (short horizontal lines). Below several texts are divided into syllables just like that.

2. Words are divided into syllables by vertical lines.

3. Syllables are highlighted below with arcs.

Like that. Better to start with the first hyphenated option. The first texts should be very simple in content, as below, getting more complex slowly .. First, you give a picture for coloring. And then the kid draws himself according to the meaning of the text. Reading texts can also be downloaded from our website. Just prepare them in one of the ways suggested above.

L. Tolstoy

One-nag-dy went-la Ma-sha into the forest and for-blu-di-las. I began to look for do-ro-gu to-my and came to the forest from-bush-ke. In the do-mi-ke e-tom zh-la seven-i honey-ve-dei: father-tsa called Mi-hai-lo Po-ta-pych, mother - Nas-tas-I Pet-rov-na , and their little sy-nish-ku - honey-ve-jo-nok Mi-joke. The house was empty - honey-ve-di ush-li walk along the forest.

Ma-sha went into the house and u-vi-de-la three mis-ki with ka-sha. Big-sha-I would-la Mi-hai-lo Po-ta-py-cha, middle-nya-I Us-tas-and Pet-rov-ny, and sa-ma-I little-laziness-ka-me - Mi-joke-ki.

In the process of growing up, the child learns important and useful skills. Reading is one of the foundations. Psychologists recommend taking into account the individual characteristics of children. This will help to understand whether the child is ready to learn letters and whether it is time to start learning to read syllables. For children of different ages, an individual approach is required.

It is important to recognize the signals of readiness to learn in a timely manner:

• the child creates the illusion of reading, runs his finger over the text;
• shows interest in books, can look at them for a long time;
• knows all the letters and can easily name them;
• he has clear speech;
• the child has a large vocabulary;
• it is necessary to individually approach the child with speech impairments.

Features of learning at different ages

3-4 years old

A child at this age is active and inquisitive and is able to assimilate a large amount of new information in a short period of time.

Effective learning for any skill must combine:

1. An interesting form of presentation, i.e. learning is best done in the form of a game. Monotony and monotony can scare off a crumb and discourage the desire to learn for a long time.
2. Select a task depending on individual characteristics baby. Even at the age of 3, the development and abilities of two children can be strikingly different. It is necessary to select educational games so that they are suitable for the child and are not too difficult for him.
3. Monitor the reaction of the little student so that he does not overexert himself.
4. Consider his mood. You should not start learning if the kid is not in the mood for classes.

At 4-5 years old

The child's brain begins to actively work and process information. It is already much easier for him to structure and analyze everything that happens around him. Learning should also be carried out in the form of games to make it easier and more interesting for the child to assimilate new knowledge. A small student needs to be able to focus on classes for a long time, otherwise the result from them will be minimal.

At 5-6 years old

The child is entering a new stage of intellectual development. He begins to take an active interest in reading, because he himself wants to delve into the learning process.

Baby gets more positive emotions from learning to read. The brain of the little man actively develops certain areas that are responsible for attention, helps to better structure, analyze and memorize information.

At 6-7 years old

Adults don't like doing routine things that get bored. And it is simply contraindicated for a child to do something boring. Classes should be fun and interesting.

This will require:

• teaching material with large letters;
• conduct training in the form of a game;
• do not overwork the child.

Do not take into account only books, it is better to use speaking alphabet, cards, cubes and other educational material.

Classical learning at home

The right start

In order to successfully and effectively teach a child to read by syllables, it is necessary to set the right start. Psychologists and pediatricians advise to act in certain ways in order to reduce the little student's resistance to the learning process.

Among them:

1. Conduct classes when the child has good mood and there are no signs of illness. This rule also applies to the teaching person.
2. At the beginning of school, the baby often experiences rapid fatigue and difficulty concentrating. It is best to shorten your class time in the first few days.
3. Golden Rule any learning from children is a game presentation. Thus, the child learns the necessary things in an easy and interesting way.
4. When studying with a child, you do not need to portray a strict teacher. This form of presentation can forever ruin his desire to acquire new knowledge.
5. The baby must be supported and rejoiced at his successes. This will help build your child's self-confidence and ability to achieve success faster.
6. The more various games there are, the easier and more interesting it will be for the kid to learn to read by syllable. For children also necessary condition is a timely switch from one game to another. This helps maintain the interest and attention of the little student.

Learning stages

1. First, explain in game form that speech consists of sounds.
2. Teach a child to distinguish consonants of different hardness (soft and hard). Determine the vowel on which the stress falls.
3. Then the little student needs to learn how to highlight sounds in small words.
4. In a playful way, show the letter and pronounce its sound designation.
5. Then, together with the parents, add syllables.

Game forms of studying letters.

For kids modern world offers many different techniques, which help to teach to read by syllables.

To teach a child to read syllables, it is recommended to start by studying the letter. It is better to buy the alphabet for children 2-3 years old, where each letter is associated with a subject.

Among them:

Learning the correct pronunciation of sounds

It is better to divide the training into several stages. This will help your child learn the correct pronunciation faster.

1. Stage 1. Aimed at the development of organs that are involved in speech: lips, tongue, cheeks. At this stage, lighter sounds are mastered, i.e. vowels and simple consonants.
2. Stage 2. The child learns complex consonants. As practice shows, these are whistling and hissing sounds.
3. Stage 3. This stage should be given special attention, because it is one of the hardest to teach a child to pronounce correctly. At stage 3, you need to teach how to pronounce complex sounds (hissing and whistling) correctly so that the baby does not confuse them.
4. Stage 4. When the little student learns to pronounce complex sounds separately, the next stage begins. The child will need to learn how to separate mixing sounds, for example, [W] and [S].

Compilation of syllables and the transition to their pronunciation

Syllables can be divided into 3 types:

1. Consonant + vowel A... This is the easiest syllable for a child to learn. For example, syllables: MA, BA, PA, etc. He needs to explain how the syllables are composed and learn to read them correctly. Let the little reader not try to learn the syllables quickly, because the main thing is that he understands the essence and does it correctly. Over time, he will learn to do this much faster.
2. Consonant + other vowels. First, it is better to study a syllable with simple consonants, but a different vowel besides [A]. When he has mastered this lesson, you can move on to the next. Alternate simple consonants with complex ones (sibilants, etc.) and any vowel. For example, syllables: ДИ, ША, ЧЕ, etc.
3. The syllable is the opposite. When the little reader understands the essence, pediatricians recommend switching to closed syllables. Those. the syllable ends with a consonant. For example, syllables: IR, YASH, AR, etc.

Reading whole words

Learning to read by syllables is an intermediate stage, after which a difficult but interesting period begins for children - reading whole words. How less words will fall into the child's field of vision, the easier it will be for him.

1. It is best to start with words that have repeating syllables. For example, MA-MA, PA-PA, BA-BA, etc.
2. Further, it is easiest for children to perceive words with repetitive (uncomplicated) consonants. For example, MI-MO, etc.
3. Then you should choose various combination syllables, but with simple consonants. For example, SA-LO, KI-SA, etc.
4. Then it's better to pay attention to words with one complex consonant. For example, RO-SHA, PI-SHA, etc. Then you can select both complex consonants: CHA-SHA, etc.

With a gradual increase in difficulty, the child will be able to read even the most difficult words.

Fluency reading training

Learning to read fluently will help your child learn to read quickly. It is important to choose the text for the classes in accordance with the age. It is necessary to record the initial result in order to know how successful the training is. To do this, it is enough to let the child read the text, pre-time it. At the beginning of training, do not overwork him, 1-2 minutes will be enough.

1. Understand the meaning. It is necessary for the child to be able to assimilate and memorize the meaning of the text read. When the little student reads the part, you need to ask him questions and check if he understands the meaning of the text.
2. In search. The novice reader is encouraged to quickly find a certain word or phrase in the text (but this also depends on the child's age).
3. A difficult fight. Experts say that it is difficult for children to read words with several consonants in a row. You need to make a list of difficult words with consecutive consonants. It is best to practice such words daily so that the child does not lose his skill.
4. Tongue Twisters. Pronouncing tongue twisters helps to improve pronunciation, correctly distribute breathing, and increase reading speed.

Popular methods of teaching reading

Zaitsev Cubes

The main difference between Zaitsev's methodology is the unit of language, i.e. warehouse instead of the conventional syllable. For example, "pi-ro-g" instead of "pi-horn".

Cubes have many features:

• the size;
• Colour;
• number;

Differences help the child remember a certain rule. In addition to the cubes, tables with warehouses are attached. Zaitsev's technique is suitable for children from 3 years old.

Syllabic reading

This method is represented by tables with syllables. A huge set of syllables is good because it is impossible to remember and memorize, so one table can be studied many times. Syllabic reading helps you learn a variety of syllables and prepare you to read difficult words.

Glen Doman's method

This method is recommended to be used from 6 months. The set contains cards with words printed in red letters.
The essence of the method is to show the child cards with words, pronouncing them clearly and clearly... With this technique, the child will be able to learn to read without memorizing syllables and letters.

Methodology of Nadezhda Zhukova

For this method, the child must be introduced to the letters in advance. Nadezhda Zhukova argues that it is more difficult for children to select individual sounds and easier to select syllables. The baby first needs to be introduced to the simplest letters, vowels. Help him understand that they can be sung. Then you need to explain how to add 2 vowels, then he can understand the basics of adding syllables.

"Magnetic Alphabet" by Nadezhda Zhukova will help the child learn to determine by ear how many letters and sounds are pronounced, and in what sequence the sounds sound.

Chaplygin cubes

The technique is based on dynamic cubes. These are cubes connected in a special way that can be twisted. By turning them, the baby gets new words. From 2 cubes, you can collect 20 words, and from 3 cubes - 25 times more (i.e. 500 different words).

Self-taught ABC

Self-taught ABC allows your child to learn the alphabet without assistance. The electronic alphabet will help you learn the basics of reading - letters in a playful way with little or no help from adults.

Reading video tutorials

There are a huge number of video tutorials, both simple and intricate. It is sometimes difficult for parents to choose from such a variety what is really suitable for the child.

Video tutorials can be roughly divided:

• according to the age;
• by gender of the child;
• by the level of training (beginner, intermediate, difficult).

Video tutorials should be selected according to these parameters.

What are the advantages of video tutorials on teaching to read:

• distance learning;
• self-study without the participation of adults;
• easy accessibility;
• interesting learning format;
• big variety.

For successful learning, it is important to show:

• persistence;
• patience;
• methodicalness;
• attentiveness;
• love and care.

You should not start classes with a bad mood and / or well-being. The rule applies to both the child and the parent. It is impossible to show negative emotions during training: irritability, anger, aggression. If difficulties arise in the learning process, it is better to postpone classes for a while.

Video on the topic: how to teach a child to read

It is now accepted that it is necessary to start a full-fledged school education at the age of 6-7 years. By this time, the baby should learn to read and write.

A preschooler of this age is already independent, knows a lot and understands almost everything. When should you teach your child to read syllables so that he is ready for school?

Important: All children are different in development, thinking and independence. Some kids begin to read syllables at 5 years old, while others do it at 4 years old.

Parents should help the development of the baby: buy coloring books, colorful books and include with animals, toys and nature.

But psychological characteristics development of toddlers indicate that children can easily learn to read and at 3 years old. Of course, a child at three years old is still quite a tiny bit, but it is this age that is considered a crisis in his development.

Important: Babies at the age of three actively learn the world, speak well and therefore they absorb information like a sponge. In three years, the formation takes place logical thinking and a generalized sense of space.

First, the baby must learn the letters. Then he needs to explain that vowels and consonants are read in different ways: some stretch or chant, while others "break off."

Important: Without this rule, the child will not understand how he needs to read the syllables.

Tip: Pronounce the syllables with the crumbs, connecting them into simple words: ma-ma, pa-pa, mo-lo. Then move on to more complex words: cat, rap.

Hang a colorful poster with pictures and letters in your child's room. It will be easier for the kid to remember the words if he sees them clearly.

Important: Thanks to this technique, you can activate passive memory. These trainings will allow you to subconsciously memorize syllables and words.

The child can run and jump quickly, that is, play. Therefore, he can easily learn to read playfully.

Reading by syllables game:

• Take cubes with consonants and place them one on top of the other
• Now take a cube with the letter "a", and alternately substituting it to the cubes with consonant letters, pronounce the resulting syllables with the baby
• Reach the top and lower the letter "a" down, repeating the syllables again

Any mom or dad thinks that they will not be able to teach their baby to read on their own. Parents think that this should be done by teachers who have teaching experience. But this is not so, it is easy to teach a child to read syllables at home.

• If your toddler has an older brother or sister, show by their example how good it is to be able to read on their own.
• Have a child choose letter cubes, a magnetic alphabet or a colorful poster with pictures and syllables in the toy store.
• Work with your child for as much time as he is interested in. When the desire is gone, don't force it. Postpone reading for a couple of days and then continue again.
• Don't be afraid to praise your baby. He wants to please his parents and he will try to read better and better every time.

Few parents know that a reading assistant can be downloaded on the Internet. There are different programs to teach a child to read syllables.

Each tab of the interface of such a program is a level. The kid must go through them and by the end of all levels, he will confidently read syllables and even words.

Important: The program has a colorful design of the menu and sub-items. For a child, it will seem like a game, which means that it will be fun for him to study.

Important: Preschool educators have identified the following truth: "To memorize a text, you need to read it 5 times." But little child it is difficult to get him to read the same words many times - it is not interesting for him.

Therefore, it is worth using special exercises to teach your child to read by syllable:

• Reading a word backwards... The kid will find it funny to read the words from the end. The purpose of this exercise is to teach you how to merge letters into syllables. Tell the child that Vrednyuchka came to him, who wrote the word the other way around, and he needs to read this word
• Reading upside down... Place the book upside down in front of your child and read the word with him. Repeat the exercise, but only with reading not from left to right, but from right to left
• Reader "Tug"... Call your older brother or sister for help. The assistant will read the words a little faster, and the baby will then repeat in a whisper. If the crumb has fallen behind and lost a line, then stop reading and start over. Thanks to this exercise, articulation develops - quick reading and speaking the text
• Reader "Halves"... Close the lower halves of the letters with a ruler (they should be large), and let the child read the word along the upper halves. It will be difficult for him at first. Therefore, read the whole word once, and then in halves. This exercise develops anticipation - the ability to predict. This will be useful for the kid in the future for quick reading.

Important: If the child performs these exercises every day, then after a couple of weeks, he will be able to read even complex words well.

Games to teach your child to read syllables

Exciting games with parents, caregivers, other children and older brothers or sisters help the kid to master the material well and quickly. With this approach, the baby will perceive reading not as learning, but as an exciting pastime.

• "Hide and seek"... Find simple text with large letters. Say a 4-letter word to the kid and let him find it in the text and show it with his finger. If the child already reads well, then complicate the task: let him find the word, and read not it, but the next
• "Excavations"... Draw a table with letters. In it, the kid must find letters and add a word. For example, the task: what you drank today is hidden here - juice, milk, cocoa
• "Good Singer"... Suggest that the child does not read the word, but sing, stretching out the sounds. This makes them easier to remember.
• "Who, where and when"... It is necessary that the baby not only read the words, but also understand their meaning. Ask him to tell you about the word after reading. For example: "hare" - who he is, where he lives, what he is

Important: You can independently come up with interesting exercises for your baby that will teach him to read quickly and easily.

Moms, dads, grandfathers and grandmothers try to teach their child to read long before going to school. But this must be done wisely so that the child does not lose interest in learning, but develops his skills.

Advice: Start teaching your child no earlier than 3 years old. If you read more early age, then the child will not become more successful than others, he may lose interest in learning new things.

Tip: Don't grab onto all teaching methods at once. Pick one thing and follow this path.

Advice: Start acquaintance of the child not with letters, but with sounds - not "me", but "m". So the child will quickly understand how a vowel is friends with a consonant letter.

Parents' advice and feedback on how to teach a child to read by syllable

Today, the child should be led to the first grade already prepared. He must know not only letters, but also be able to read. Not all children go to preschool kindergartens, and in kindergartens, not all children are taught to read and write. Therefore, very often parents are faced with the question of how to teach a child to read syllables at home.

Many questions immediately arise: where to start, what technique to choose, so that it is quick and effective. The ways of learning reading by syllables are so diverse that many moms and dads are simply lost. Let's try to sort out these issues in order.

Is the child ready for learning

Before starting the process itself, it is necessary to take into account the psychological and physical readiness of the baby to learn. There are several basic criteria by which you can determine in which key to start, so that learning does not subsequently turn your preschooler away from reading for life.

1. If your child speaks fluently in sentences and logically connects phrases, then it's time. Check if your son or daughter understands what you are reading.
2. An important criterion is the ability to distinguish between sounds. Speech therapists call this phonemic hearing. For example, a mushroom is a flu, a soup is a tooth, a mouth is a genus. Does the child understand that these words have different meanings?
3. A big problem on the way to learning can be a delay in speech or incorrect pronunciation of some sounds: if the child does not pronounce the sounds correctly, then help is needed speech therapist... Don't expect the problem to resolve itself. Take the child to a specialist for classes and attend them regularly, and also be sure to complete the tasks that the teacher gives you for self-consolidation teaching material... Delayed speech, stuttering - it is necessary to show the child to a neurologist and psychiatrist. In any case, there is a reason, and it needs to be found out.

1. It is imperative to teach the kid where left and right, top and bottom. This will help him navigate the text: from which side to start reading the word, where is the top line, and where is the bottom.

When to start learning to read

Many parents are so worried that their child will not have time to learn to read before school, that they literally begin to pester their baby almost at 2 years old.

• At 3 - 4 years old, it may not be at all interesting for a baby to sit over a book. And that's okay. Each age has its own tasks.
• If a friend's child has been reading and knows Fet and Tyutchev by heart from almost 2 years of age, then this does not mean that it’s time for yours. All children are so individual that general recommendations remain in any case only general. Learn to feel your child.
• At 5 or 6 years old is another matter. But if the kid doesn't walk in Kindergarten or for some classes for a specific reason, then start teaching it yourself. In an unobtrusive way, teach to write in capital letters the basic words "MOM", "DAD", "HOUSE", "CAT", your name. With minimal preparation, the child will be much easier to adapt in the first grade.

8 basic rules for teaching a child to read syllables at home

They will help you navigate correctly and understand what is main and what is secondary. Now in more detail.

1. Start small: gradually learn letters and sounds as you walk. Draw a letter in the sand with a stick, then a syllable. The same can be done from twigs or pebbles. It will be interesting to learn to read the crumb, guessing familiar letters, and then the syllables on the signs. Show that letters and words surround us everywhere.
2. A little later, the educational process can be transferred to the house. Set up a chair and desk for writing and reading. Make sure you have the right lighting. Gradually teach your child to put the notebook, pen or pencil back into place. A small shelf is needed for books. Teach your toddler to clean up and be organized. All this must be done in a relaxed manner. At first, 10 minutes a day is enough for a crumb.
3. Read with pleasure yourself. Develop a reading culture in your family. Discuss what you read with your child. For the younger one, ask questions: who is drawn in the picture? Who is the story about? When the baby grows up, you can ask more difficult questions: why did the hero of the fairy tale do exactly that? How would you do in his place?
4. It would be more correct to start from simple words to more complex ones. Start with words where the syllables are repeated: ma - ma, pa - pa, ba - ba, dia - dia. Then move on to the complex ones: cat, de - re - vo, children, wind.
5. Get a few sensible textbooks: ABC book (by NS Zhukova), Favorite ABC (Irina Solnyshko), ABCs by N. Betenkova, V. Goretsky, D. Fonin, N. Pavlova, magnetic alphabet, cubes with letters. Draw vowels on cards and place them throughout the apartment. Gradually, the child will remember them all. Then swap them. Do the same with the consonants later.
6. Alphabets and primers require more perseverance, but gradually teach the child not only letters, but also syllables. Associative thinking will help you master the alphabet faster: the letter "A" is an album, "B" is a squirrel, "C" is a bicycle, and bright pictures help faster memorization.
7. Repeat what you have already learned. If you started to learn, then do it systematically. Otherwise, there will be no result. When in line or on the road, read a short book with your child. Time will pass faster, and even with benefit.
8. Most importantly, don't force, be nervous or violent. Childhood is a golden time, do not forget about it. It is not at all necessary: ​​if you need and want to, then your child also wants the same.

Basic popular techniques

There are many different schools, individual and author's methods. Let's dwell on some that are really capable of producing results.

Zaitsev Cubes

• Unlike traditional primers, this method allows you to master not only individual letters, but also combinations of consonants and vowels, individual letters, as well as the use of a soft and hard sign. There are 52 cubes in total.
• During the game, the kid can not only make up various words, but also understand what voiceless and voiced consonants are. Cubes with images of consonants are filled with pieces of wood, and those with images of voiced ones are filled with metal parts.
• As an attachment, there are tables that also have syllables. The main rule is not to read, but to sing.
• Cubes vary in size: large cubes with hard combinations and consonants, and smaller cubes with soft consonants.
• The disadvantage of this technique, judging by the reviews, is that already at school the child may have difficulties in parsing the word composition, and also, some children later simply "swallow" the endings. Well, plus: children quite quickly and in a playful way master the alphabet and reading by syllables.

Teaching to read Montessori

The whole process is not entirely traditional: first we write, and then we learn the letter, and then the syllable. The advantage of the method is that everything is presented in the form of a game. First, the letters are shaded and outlined, and then their pronunciation is learned. The letters are cut out of rough paper. The same letter can be drawn, for example, on a decoy. The disadvantage of this technique is that you will have to prepare a lot of material for training.

Dynamic Chaplygin cubes

The set includes 10 cubes and 10 blocks that move. The child's task is to make a pair of a vowel and a consonant. They are depicted on each side of the cube. Each dynamic block includes a consonant and a vowel.

Still popular are "Warehouses" and "Teremki" by V. Voskobovich, as well as Doman's Cards.

In order to make it easier for you to draw up an action plan, here are some more recommendations:

• Before you start learning, make sure your child is really ready for it. Do not force, try to conduct training, especially at the initial stage, in a playful way.
• Despite the many methods, first of all, the child needs happy and loving parents... If you have established contact with your baby, then any method of learning will bring results.
• Start small and work your way up to the harder. If you have started learning, then do not be lazy and do not stop, only then you can learn to read. Even if everything is going well, remember that your beloved student is just a child and sometimes just wants to play or run.

Good luck and patience!
