Egorova Natalya Viktorovna

Fun activity for preschoolers –

graphic dictations.

Drawing by cells– a very exciting and useful activity for children. This is a playful way to develop a child’s spatial imagination, fine motor skills of the fingers, and perseverance.

Graphic dictations help develop attention, the ability to listen to the teacher, and spatial orientation. They will also prepare your child's hand for writing. They will teach the baby to be more attentive. This is a great way to develop logic, abstract thinking, and meticulousness. With the help of these activities, the child develops, corrects the correctness of his movements, “fills a steady hand", this skill will help him in school. Graphic dictations can be successfully used from the age of five.

What are graphic dictations? Graphic dictations are drawing in cells using the pointers in the task. To complete them we will need: a sheet of paper on which the cells are drawn, a pencil, an eraser. The tasks contain arrows (showing direction) and numbers (showing the number of cells that need to be passed in the indicated direction). If you follow the signs accurately and carefully, draw a line in the right direction at the right distance, you get a picture. It could be an animal, various objects, vegetables, fruits, trees, transport and much more.

Drawing by cells – good way teach your baby to use a pencil and pen. Teach how to hold it correctly, practice so that your fingers don’t get so tired from holding an object at school. This exercise will help teach your child to count correctly; here you will need to count the cells so that by drawing a line you will get a picture.

I practice graphic dictations under dictation, both with the whole group of children and in individual lessons with kids. Children really like these exercises. Children also take great pleasure in drawing themselves on lined sheets with tasks.

How to do graphic dictation

(Rules for drawing by cells).

Graphic dictation can be performed in two versions:

1. The child is offered a sample of a geometric design and asked to repeat exactly the same design in a checkered notebook.

2. An adult dictates a sequence of actions indicating the number of cells and their directions (left, right, up, down). The child does the work by ear, and then compares his image of the ornament or figure with the example in the manual using the method of superimposition.

When offering children such tasks, the teacher must observe certain rules. la:

When the teacher begins to dictate, he cannot pronounce any other words. And even more so repeat the same direction twice.

Dictations are written in complete silence.

If the child gets confused, he quietly puts down the pencil and calmly waits until the teacher finishes dictating. Only after this can you find out the error.

I start getting acquainted with the cage from the middle group.

I start work with the simplest thing - I write tasks in a notebook with a large square, the child must continue the row. Learning to see a cell and a line. We write sticks, squares, corners, simple patterns, each time complicating the tasks. We first divide the patterns into segments - we train, then all the particles are assembled into a pattern.

The following notations are used in the tasks: the number of cells being counted is indicated by a number, and the direction is indicated by an arrow.

Before you start writing a graphic dictation, you should explain to the children how the dictation will be carried out. First, we talk with the children that I will dictate to them how many cells the lines need to be drawn and in what direction. And they will draw these lines along the cells without lifting the pencil from the paper, and then together we will see what happens. Encourage the children to try to draw straight and beautiful lines, then the drawing will turn out wonderful.

For the first time, you can draw on the board with the children so that they can see how they need to work, and the children will be able to complete subsequent dictations without prompting. Before the dictation you need to repeat where the right and left hand, how to draw a line to the right and left. You can agree with the children about some marks (draw the letters “p” and “l” on the board, make marks on the walls, or stipulate that, for example: right hand points to the window, and the left one to the bedroom, etc.)

Then we move on to drawing under dictation.

To begin with, on the sheet with the dictation, in the upper corners, you need to mark - right and left. We give the child a squared notebook sheet, a pencil and an eraser.

In older groups, at the top of the picture we always indicate how many cells need to be moved away from the edge and top to start the dictation. In the indicated place, for example: retreat 5 cells from the edge to the left, count 6 cells from above. This is where you need to put a point. For children younger age It’s better to count the cells yourself and set a reference point (from this point the child will draw lines under dictation).

It’s better to start with the simplest: - one cell up (1, one cell to the right (1), one cell down (1), one cell to the left (1). The result is a square.

You need to dictate clearly, the child must perceive everything by ear. At the end of the work, look at how well the children’s figures coincide with the given elements. Review the sample. If the baby made a mistake, find out together where exactly. You can use an eraser to wipe away the point of failure and continue. The main thing is to support the child, praise him, if something doesn’t work out, you can offer to redraw the picture from the original.

Before each lesson, be sure to talk with your child about the fact that there are different directions and sides. Show him where is right, where is left, where is up, where is down. Pay attention to the baby that every person has a right and a left side. Explain that the hand with which he eats, draws and writes is his right hand, and the other hand is his left. For left-handers, on the contrary, it is necessary to explain to left-handers that there are people for whom the working hand is the right, and there are people for whom the working hand is the left.

This activity includes graphic dictation, discussion of images, tongue twisters, tongue twisters, riddles and finger gymnastics. Each stage of the lesson carries a semantic load. Activities with your child can be arranged in different sequences.

Application:

Greetings, friends! Today we’ll talk about graphic dictations - very interesting option developmental activities for older children preschool age. Graphic dictations for children 5–6 years old can captivate boys and girls, allowing mothers and fathers to enjoy legitimate ten minutes of peace and quiet, which rarely happen in a house where little perpetual motion machines, jumpers and whys live.

In addition to the fact that almost all children really enjoy this pastime, you will learn from this material:

what are graphic dictations;
what are their benefits for the child;
how to conduct graphic dictations with five-year-olds and older children;
how to enhance the developmental effect of the lesson.

Graphic dictation: drawing by cells

Everyone understands what a dictation is: it is a type of written work that is used in the learning process to train writing skills, to consolidate and test acquired knowledge.

Graphic dictation involves creating drawings in cells under dictation.

How does this happen:

The child receives a sheet of paper in a square with the start marked (a bold, clearly visible dot).
The adult slowly commands how many cells should be drawn and in which direction.
Step by step, following the adult’s commands, the student creates a graphic image.

Let's consider simplest example, so that you can finally understand what’s what:

To get this picture, you need to sequentially draw from the starting point:

3 cells up;
2 cells down right;
2 cells to the right up;
2 cells down.

When compiling and performing graphic dictations, it is important to take into account simple rules:

The entire drawing turns out to be a solid broken line. Take the pen off the paper.
Do not draw on the same line twice.

Sometimes, to make the lesson more interesting, after creating a picture based on a graphic dictation, the child is asked to refine the image: to add elements that give the outline a more complete look:

curly hair for little men;
tails and eyes for animals;
windows for buildings and transport.

The benefits of graphic dictations: who, why

Graphic dictations - effective tool in the program for preparing preschoolers for first grade. Their benefits for children 5–6 years old are enormous:

train fine motor skills;
train spelling vigilance;
develop attentiveness and perseverance;
stimulate spatial imagination and thinking;
teach independence;
have a beneficial effect on hearing.

By performing graphic dictation, the child learns to accurately reproduce instructions given orally. Agree, this is one of the skills that determines the success of learning in the modern school system. It is very important to teach a child to listen and hear, to correctly understand and correctly reproduce the teacher’s words.

Graphic dictations for preschoolers can be turned into a whole game.

First, discussing the task, then directly drawing in the cells, then discussing the finished drawing, finalizing it and coloring it.

letters;
numbers;
geometric figures;
animals;
transport;
plants.

You can draw very different objects in this way, which means that the additional developmental element can be different. You can use graphic dictations to teach your child to read and count, to develop his speech and broaden his horizons.

First graphic dictation with a child: learn to teach

To make classes using this method one of your child’s favorite developmental elements, learn to present them correctly. It is worth noting that with the entry of a preschooler into the ranks of smart first-graders, graphic dictations will not only not lose their relevance, but, on the contrary, will definitely come in handy. IN primary school The kids will have to do a lot of them, but this is mandatory and will be assessed. So, moms and dads, go for it: learn to teach your heirs, and then teach them to learn =)

How to properly conduct a lesson with a preschool child:

Prepare everything you need: a squared sheet of paper, a pencil, an eraser (so that you can correct mistakes that are definitely unavoidable at first). You can come up with dictation tasks yourself, or you can buy special workbooks or download and print graphic dictations from the Internet.
First, look at the task yourself. When you are sure that everything is clear to you, invite your child to play a new game.
Make sure that the child sits correctly, with a straight back, and holds the pencil correctly. These points must be kept under control whenever you conduct educational activities for your preschooler at home.
Remind where the right side is and where the left is. By the way, this moment can be used to tell your child about the existence of left-handers and right-handers. That both options are normal. That all children, all people are different. In general, work on socializing the baby - it will never be superfluous.
Do a simple workout. Show what it means to draw two squares to the right. Let your child repeat after you. Make several of these outlines.
Draw several straight lines on a checkered sheet of paper. different lengths in different directions (indicate the direction with an arrow). Discuss each line: how many cells it occupied, in what direction it was drawn, where it began.

Start small

It is not at all necessary to start graphic dictations by creating complex drawings. Moreover, it is not necessary to conduct them in the form of a dictation - i.e. completing a task from dictation. First, master the technique of drawing by cells, creating pictures according to the model, tracing the dotted lines, completing the pictures. Finding tasks is not a problem. You can draw them yourself.

So, draw a simple pattern with a thin line in your child’s notebook:

Let him first circle the drawn fragment, and then continue it to the end of the sheet.

Discuss how the pattern was created:

1 square down;
1 cell to the right;
1 square up;
1 cell to the right...

Now ask them to draw a picture according to the same pattern, but take two cells everywhere.

Vary different options for creating a similar pattern. For example, you can start moving from the starting point not downwards, but up or to the side.

From the simplest we smoothly move on to more complex tasks. For example, use these patterns:

Gradually complicate the tasks by selecting graphic dictations of the appropriate level of difficulty.

When your child reaches impressive heights in this activity, invite him to switch roles: let him create patterns or pictures, and then, cell by cell, dictate to you how to repeat his masterpiece. We do not know of a single case when such “shifters” did not cause genuine delight among boys and girls.

Homework

And now we invite you to do a small homework from Eureka. What picture is hidden behind these commands?

Start at a distance of 1 cell to the left, 6 from the top. There must be at least 5 cells down. Let's draw:

1 square down
3 cells to the right
1 square down
1 square to the right
2 cells down
1 cell to the left
1 square down
2 cells to the right
1 square up
1 square to the right
1 square up
2 cells to the right
1 square down
1 cell to the left
1 square down
3 cells to the right
2 squares up
1 square to the right
4 squares up
1 square to the right
2 squares up
1 cell to the left
1 square down
1 cell to the left
1 square down
6 cells left
3 squares up
1 cell to the left
1 square down
2 cells to the left
3 cells down
1 cell to the left

Effective development and happy parenting to you! See you again!

Graphic dictations
(Drawing by cells)

Admission to school – important point in the life of a child and his parents. How better baby will be prepared for school psychologically, emotionally and intellectually, the more confident he will feel, the easier his adaptation period in primary school will be.

Graphic dictations or drawing in boxes for preschoolers are a good way to help parents and teachers systematically prepare their child for school and prevent such typical learning difficulties as underdeveloped spelling vigilance, restlessness and absent-mindedness. Regular classes with these graphic dictations develop the child’s voluntary attention, spatial imagination, fine motor skills of the fingers, coordination of movements, and perseverance.

Drawing by cells is a very exciting and useful activity for children. This is a playful way to develop a child’s spatial imagination, fine motor skills of the fingers, coordination of movements, and perseverance. Graphic dictations can be successfully used for children from 5 to 10 years old.

By completing the tasks proposed below - graphic dictations, the child will broaden his horizons, increase lexicon, learn to navigate a notebook, get acquainted with different ways images of objects.

How to work with these graphic dictations:

Each dictation contains tasks for children aged 5–7 years.

Graphic dictation can be performed in two versions:
1. The child is offered a sample of a geometric design and asked to repeat exactly the same design in a checkered notebook.
2. The adult dictates the sequence of actions indicating the number of cells and their directions (left, right, up, down), the child does the work by ear, and then compares his image of the ornament or figure with the example in the manual using the overlay method.

Graphic dictations are supplemented with riddles, tongue twisters, tongue twisters and finger exercises. During the lesson, the child practices correct, clear and literate speech, develops fine motor skills, learns to identify the distinctive features of objects, and expands his vocabulary.

The tasks are selected according to the principle “from simple to complex.” If you start studying these graphic dictations with your child, do the tasks with him in order: start with the very first simple dictations and gradually move on to more complex ones.

For classes, you need a squared notebook, a simple pencil and an eraser so that the child can always correct the wrong line. For children 5–6 years old, it is better to use a notebook with a large square (0.8 mm) so as not to strain their eyesight. Starting from graphic dictation No. 40, all drawings are designed for a regular school notebook (they will not fit in a large-squared notebook).

The following notations are used in the tasks: the number of cells being counted is indicated by a number, and the direction is indicated by an arrow. For example, the entry:

During classes, the child’s attitude and the friendly attitude of the adult are very important. Remember that classes for a child are not an exam, but a game. Help your child, make sure he doesn’t make mistakes. The result of the work should always satisfy the child, so that he wants to draw in the cells again and again.

Your task is to help the child in game form master the skills necessary for good study. Therefore, never scold him. If something doesn’t work out for him, just explain how to do it correctly. Praise your baby more often, and never compare with anyone.

The duration of one lesson with graphic dictations should not exceed 10 - 15 minutes for children 5 years old, 15 - 20 minutes for children 5 - 6 years old and 20 - 25 minutes for children 6 - 7 years old. But if the child gets carried away, do not stop him and interrupt the lesson.

Pay attention to the child’s sitting position during the dictation and how he holds the pencil. Show your child how to hold a pencil between the phalanges of the index, thumb and middle fingers. If your child doesn't count well, help him count the cells in his notebook.

After this, you can open the notebook and teach your child to navigate on a piece of paper. Show your child where the left edge of the notebook is, where the right edge is, where the top is, where the bottom is. It can be explained that previously there were slanted desks at school, which is why the top edge of the notebook was called the top edge, and the bottom edge was called the bottom edge. Explain to your child that if you say “to the right,” then you need to point the pencil “there” (to the right). And if you say “to the left,” then you need to point the pencil “there” (to the left) and so on. Show your child how to count the cells.

You yourself will also need a pencil and an eraser in order to mark the lines you read. Dictations can be quite lengthy, and to avoid getting confused, put dots with a pencil opposite the lines you are reading. This will help you not to get confused. After the dictation, you can erase all the dots.

Each lesson includes graphic dictation, discussion of images, tongue twisters, tongue twisters, riddles and finger gymnastics. Each stage of the lesson carries a semantic load. Activities with your child can be arranged in different sequences. You can first do finger exercises, read tongue twisters and tongue twisters, and then do a graphic dictation. On the contrary, you can do graphic dictation first, then tongue twisters and finger gymnastics. It is better to make riddles at the end of the lesson.
When the child draws a picture, talk about the fact that there are objects and their images. Images can be different: photographs, drawings, schematic images. A graphic dictation is a schematic representation of an object.

Talk about how each animal has its own distinctive characteristics. A schematic image shows the distinctive features by which we can recognize an animal or object. Ask your child what the distinctive features of the animal he or she has drawn are. For example, a hare has long ears and a small tail, an elephant has a long trunk, an ostrich has a long neck, a small head and long legs, and so on.

Work with tongue twisters and tongue twisters in different ways:
1. Let the child pick up the ball and, rhythmically tossing and catching it with his hands, say a tongue twister or a tongue twister. You can throw and catch the ball for each word or syllable.
2. Let the child say a tongue twister (pure tongue twister) while throwing the ball from one hand to the other.
3. You can pronounce a tongue twister by clapping the rhythm with your palms.
4. Suggest saying the tongue twister 3 times in a row and not getting lost.
Do finger exercises together so that the child sees and repeats the movements after you.
And now that you have become familiar with the basic rules for conducting a graphic dictation, you can begin classes.

Each dictation opens in a new window. To print it, right-click on the picture and select the “Print” line.

Graphic dictations - drawing by cells - a very exciting and useful activity for children. This is a playful way to develop a child’s spatial imagination, fine motor skills of the fingers, coordination of movements, voluntary attention, and perseverance.

Graphic dictations can be successfully used for children from 5 to 10 years old.

Before each lesson, be sure to remember with your child where is right, where is left, where is up, where is down. Show your child where the left edge of the notebook is, where the right edge is, where the top is, where the bottom is. Show your child how to count the cells.

You yourself may also need a pencil in order to mark the lines you read, and in order not to get confused, put dots with a pencil opposite the lines you are reading. This will help you not to get confused.

The result of the work should always satisfy the child, so that he wants to draw in the cells again and again.

Your task is to help your child master the skills necessary for good study in a playful way. Therefore, do not scold your child and if he does not succeed in something, simply explain how to do it correctly. Praise your baby more often, and never compare with anyone.

Duration of one lesson with graphic dictations:

for children 5 years old should not exceed 10 - 15 minutes,

for children 5 – 6 years old - 15 – 20 minutes

for children 6 - 7 years old - 20 - 25 minutes.

But if the child gets carried away, do not stop him and interrupt the lesson.

Graphic dictation for preschoolers. Drawing by cells:: Preparing for school

Who said that preschoolers don't have dictations? Real graphic dictation by cells will appeal not only to preschoolers, but also to students primary classes. This interesting task on attentiveness and the ability to distinguish directions: right-left, down-up.

The whole dictation consists of drawing short lines on a regular notebook sheet in a box. The baby learns to draw a line evenly, write under dictation from an adult, and do a little math.

After finishing the dictation, a figure appears on the piece of paper. It could be a bird, an animal or some other object. The figure will appear only if the dictation was completed correctly, if the child did not make a mistake anywhere.

Children really like these exercises. They draw with pleasure and ask to repeat the lesson again and again.

What is needed for graphic dictation

If you want to conduct a graphic dictation with a group of children, you need to prepare everything in advance. Place the children at the tables, hand them pencils (this makes it easier to correct a mistake in the dictation), squared pieces of paper (you can use notebooks with large squares) and an eraser.

Then you should explain to the children how the dictation will be carried out. First, we talk with the children about what we will do:

Now we will draw interesting figures. Which ones, I won’t tell you. You will see this if you do the work correctly, listen to me carefully and do not confuse right and left. I will dictate to you how many cells you need to draw lines and in what direction.

You will draw these lines along the cells without lifting your pencil from the paper, and then together we will see what happened. Try to keep your lines smooth and beautiful, then the drawing will turn out wonderful.

For the first time, you can draw on the board with the children so that they can see how they need to work, and the students will be able to complete the second and subsequent dictations without your prompting. With kids, before the dictation, it would be useful to repeat where the right and left hand are, how to draw a line to the right and left.

After completing the dictation, be sure to praise the children and correct mistakes together, if any. If a preschooler likes such exercises, you can ask them to come up with and draw figures in the cells themselves, and then together create an interesting graphic dictation.

Options for graphic dictations by cell

Dictation "Elephant"

Place a dot in the upper left corner. This will be the beginning of our picture. Starting from the point, draw lines through the cells:

4 cells right, 1 down, 5 right, 8 down, 3 left, 3 up, 1 left, 3 down, 3 left, 4 up, 1 left, 2 down, 1 left, 1 down, 1 left, 2 up, 1 right, 6 up.

Dictation “Golden Key”

Place a dot in the middle of the piece of paper on the left. Start drawing lines from this point: count 8 cells to the right, 2 up, 3 right, 5 down, 3 left, 2 up, 4 left, 3 down, 1 left, 1 up, 1 left, 1 down, 1 left, 3 up, 1 left , 1 up.

Dictation "Bunny"

Move 5 squares to the right and 3 from above, put a dot. We will draw from this point. Draw 1 square to the right, 3 down, 2 right, 2 down, 1 left, 2 down, 3 right, 3 down, 1 left, 1 up, 1 left, 2 down, 1 right, 2 down, 2 right, 1 down, 6 left, 1 up, 1 left, 1 up, 1 right, 12 up.

Together with the children, analyze what kind of figures you got. You can come up with small poems or sayings for each figure. I hope your children will enjoy doing graphic dictations in the cells.

Such dictations are carried out in kindergartens and elementary schools, Daniil did not attend classes with a psychologist and prepare for school, because the groups were formed in April, APRIL!! My son has been going to kindergarten since mid-July. In general, I decided to start preparing it myself) I am sharing a selection of graphic dictations with you

Drawing by points

Experts note that drawing with dots helps develop fine motor skills of a child’s hands, develops skills of orientation on a sheet, and contributes to the development of the eye. In addition, drawing with dots for children will be an excellent way to develop imaginative and spatial thinking, imagination and imagination. Drawing with dots also contributes to the development of speech: the child will definitely show the drawn picture to his parents and explain what he managed to draw - such communication is exclusively beneficial for the child.

Graphic dictations for preschoolers

Dear teachers, do your students like to write dictations? How many types of dictations can a teacher count? Educational, explanatory, visual, auditory, control, selective, picture and so on.

Thus, one type of dictations used in mathematics and computer science lessons are graphic dictations for preschoolers, which are successfully used in kindergartens to develop attention, memory, logical thinking, and motor skills.

When preparing a child for school, it must be taken into account that writing requires a certain functional maturity of the cerebral cortex, because the development of speech and thinking in a child is closely related to the development of fine motor skills. Typically, a child who can use his hand freely is intelligent, attentive, and capable of logical reasoning and thinking.

It is necessary to work on a child’s motor skills long before he enters school. Therefore, it is advisable to include simple graphic dictations for preschoolers and creative tasks in kindergarten classes.

In neuropathology and defectology, there have long been observations indicating a close connection between the functions of speech and the hand. Psychologists and neurologists use graphic dictations for preschoolers when working individually with children to develop thinking, memory, and motor skills. Such exercises help children become more independent and self-confident and allow them to determine how accurately a child can fulfill the requirements of an adult given orally, as well as independently complete tasks according to a model.

Graphic dictations for preschoolers - basic exercises

Usually, I start the first classes in kindergarten by offering the children a set of tasks and exercises that will teach them how to navigate the cage. I teach how to use a notebook, navigate on a notebook sheet, be able to see a cell, find its sides and corners.

K. Shevelev advises using a demonstration poster during the first lesson, which depicts a cell enlarged several times. Children must correctly name and show the sides of the square. Next, exercises are performed in squared notebooks or on the computer.

Exercise 1

Trace four separate squares with a pen. In the first cell, draw a yellow line along the top side of the cell, in the second, draw a red line along the bottom side, in the third, a blue line on the left side, in the fourth, a green line on the right side.

Exercise 2

Trace one cell with a blue pencil. Place a dot on the right side of the box. Mark the underside with a cross. Place two dots on the left side.

Mark the top side with two crosses.

In the next lesson, children become familiar with the main points of the cell. To do this, a poster is hung with an image of an enlarged cell, on which its reference points are marked.

I name and show the points of the cell, the children repeat.

Exercise 3

Circle nine separate cells. Place a dot in the first box in the upper right corner, in the second box in the lower right corner, in the third box in the upper left corner, etc.

Exercise 4

Circle 5 separate cells. In the first box, place dots in the upper left and lower right corners. Draw a line from the top left to the bottom right corner.

In the second cell, place dots in the upper right and lower left corners. Draw a line from the top right to the bottom left, etc.

I begin graphic dictations with very simple figures. After mastering the writing of simple dictations, I add the concepts up-right, up-left, down-right, down-left diagonally, that is, I consolidate the concepts: upper right corner, upper left corner, lower right corner, lower left corner.

Graphic dictations for the development of logical thinking and memory

For older preschoolers, to develop logical thinking and memory, I give dictations where I replace directions: instead of arrows, I write words using letters (p - right, l - left, v - up, n - down, vp - up - right, vl - up - left, np - down - right, nl - down - left). You can work from notebooks on a printed basis by V. Alexandrova “Developmental copybooks”, where there are very good exercise of this nature. I also compose dictations myself, which children do in their workbooks during class.

For example: 1) Come up with your own name for this entry: 3N + 3P + 2B + 2P + 1N + 1P + 1B

2) From these patterns, find the one that matches the entry: 1P, 2B, 3P, 2H and circle it with a colored pencil.

Graphic dictations when learning the alphabet

So, when studying the letters of the alphabet in kindergarten, you can give graphic dictations on writing printed letters and making words from them, or writing short words. In our practice, we use such dictations to write letters.

For example:

Given a letter, write a dictation for it.
The teacher dictates directions - students draw a letter in their notebooks.
Given both the letter and the directions, you need to write a different construction path.

Exercise. Write a dictation and form a word from the letters received (first write the letter M, then the letter D, then O. Make the word HOME)

Preparing a child for school is an event that is responsible not only for the child himself, but also for the parents. Moms and dads are advised to avoid two extremes: letting upbringing take its course or, conversely, overloading their child with developmental activities.

The optimal interaction with a preschooler is playful. Children are interested in playing. In games, they enjoy doing things that they would not do in other situations.

One of the components of preparing for school is the development of a child’s fine motor skills. In kindergarten and at home, children draw, sculpt, and perform finger gymnastics exercises. To prevent such activities from being boring, adults came up with graphic dictations for preschoolers.

What is graphic dictation?

The difference between graphic and other types of dictations is that lines are drawn on a sheet of checkered paper. The result is a schematic image of an object or living creature.

Preschoolers are offered a large cage. The following task options have been developed:

copy the drawing according to the sample;
draw according to the instructions of an adult;
create an image yourself, focusing on symbols“3^”, “4v”, etc. (the number shows the number of cells, the arrow shows the direction).

The themes of graphic dictations are different: “Hare”, “Elephant”, “Snake”, “Boat”, etc.

How are such exercises useful?

Thanks to graphic dictations, the child develops attention, memory, spatial thinking, and imagination. The baby learns to count, navigate on a piece of paper, and complete a task.

Graphic dictations for preschoolers help develop spelling vigilance and overcome the child’s restlessness and absent-mindedness. Getting carried away by drawing by cells, future first grader he himself does not notice how his attention becomes voluntary, his thoughts become more logical, how interest in completing tasks in the notebook is formed. Conversations with a child about the depicted object, animal, or person broaden the child’s horizons and promote speech development crumbs.

What is needed for graphic dictation?

First of all, a notebook in a large square. If a child learns to draw well on large cells, then you can offer a graphic dictation on the cells in a standard notebook. The sheets on which the exercises are performed should not be too bright or smooth.

Glare distracts from the task and harms the eyes.

In addition to a notebook, you will need a sharp pencil and an eraser. If you write a graphic dictation with a pen, it will be almost impossible to correct mistakes.

Hygienic conditions

Since classes are held at a table, you need to choose suitable for the child furniture. IN preschool institution This is a common practice, and at home parents should take care of the baby’s comfort. It is better to buy a children's table and chair.

But if this is not possible, then you can complete tasks at a desk, but provide support for the child’s feet. The angle between the shin and thigh should be 90°. The adult makes sure that the child does not slouch, does not lean low over the notebook, or hangs his elbows off the table.

Methodology

Graphic dictations for preschoolers are carried out in several stages. The first stage is preparatory. The adult arouses the child’s interest in the upcoming work and motivates him to complete the task.

Poems, riddles, tongue twisters, and stories about the depicted object help to attract the baby’s attention. You can perform finger exercises, sing a song, portray an animal or inanimate object using facial expressions and gestures.

An adult shows the child how to hold a pencil correctly (press it between the phalanges of the index and middle fingers, hold with the thumb), and clarifies where on the sheet of paper the top, bottom, right, left are.

The second stage of the methodology is the actual execution of the work. Depending on the version of the task, the child copies the drawing according to the sample, listens to the instructions of the adult, or focuses on conventional signs. During copying, the teacher or parent asks the child to first count the number of cells and determine the direction of the segment on the sample, then draw the same thing in a notebook.

If you are planning a dictation by ear, then before performing the exercise, you need to help the child count the correct number of cells before placing the first point and ask him to place the pencil lead at this exact point. Further instructions must be extremely clear. For example, graphic dictation “Rocket”:

three cells on top, seven on the left, dot;
four cells down, dot;
one cell to the right, one down, dot;
one cell down, dot;
one cell to the left, one down, dot;
one cell to the left, one up, dot;
two cells to the left, dot;
one cell down, one to the left, dot;
one cell up, dot;
one cell up, one to the right, dot;
four squares up, dot;
draw a rocket dot by dot and color it.

After completing the work, you can invite the child to color the resulting picture.

The most difficult option is graphic dictation using symbols. The future student studies the symbols and completes the task himself. An adult helps only with setting the first point.

Regardless of the version of the task, graphic dictation in cells is performed without lifting the pencil from the paper.

During the dictation, it is necessary to control the child and help the baby. At first, it is recommended to monitor the implementation of each step.

Participation in classes must be voluntary. Children like to write graphic dictations for preschoolers, so if a child does not want to study, there are objective reasons. Maybe the baby is tired, or he is interested in something else.

Give your child a rest and do not distract him from his studies. After some time, he will be ready to switch his attention.

In kindergarten, teachers try to interest children with the help of surprises (a fox brings a picture with a dictation in a bag), a game (a bunny asks the children to draw his portrait), a problematic situation (the Katya doll wants to order a painting, but the artist is away on a business trip), etc. .

How to react to errors?

The “Graphic Dictation” technique is one of the most complex, so mistakes are inevitable. An eraser helps correct annoying mistakes. If you didn’t notice a mistake and the result was nonsense, you shouldn’t be upset.

Support your child and praise him for his efforts.

Perhaps the proposed dictation turned out to be too difficult, next time stop at an easier option. Before starting the lesson, count homogeneous objects and once again check the directions on a piece of paper.

Preschoolers are very sensitive to negative evaluation, so negative statements and, especially, indiscriminate criticism should be avoided. Point out deficiencies in your work correctly. Tell your child that next time he will do the task better.

Class time

Since kids cannot do one thing for a long time, class time is limited. Graphic dictations for children 5-6 years old are designed for fifteen to twenty minutes. Six-year-olds are taught for up to twenty-five minutes.

The time can be increased if the child is interested. Try to complete the task to the end.

Graphic dictations in elementary school

With first-graders, similar exercises are used in Russian language lessons, natural history lessons, classes with a speech therapist, and in an after-school group. The “Graphic Dictation” technique is somewhat different here. Notebooks in a standard square are used, the themes and content of the drawings become more complex.

In addition to the actual drawing, teachers conduct discussions on the content of the dictation. Teachers expand the mathematical knowledge of schoolchildren (part, whole, area of figures), form natural history ideas (about the habits, lifestyle of a drawn animal). Children continue to develop attention, thinking, imagination, coherent speech (seeing a schematic representation of an object, composing a fairy tale, a story based on a drawing, reasoning on given topics, etc.). The listed knowledge, skills and abilities help to study successfully in all subjects of the school curriculum.

Graphic dictations for preschoolers

A preschooler is preparing to become a student. For successful learning, he will need a lot of knowledge, developed communication skills in society, the ability to perceive and remember new information, and much more.

Teachers kindergarten highlight a whole range of activities with the help of which complete and high-quality preparation for studying at school is carried out. One of the components of this complex is conducting graphic dictations with children - game exercises with a pencil on a checkered sheet of paper.

How to practice

Game tasks - drawing with a pencil in the cells in a given direction at a certain distance - are carried out with children of senior preschool age who already have the skill of drawing straight lines, orienting themselves on a sheet of paper (“right-left”, “up-down”, lower left corner, right top corner, etc.) .

Graphic dictation classes require concentration, attention, and perseverance from a preschooler. But, unlike the usual school dictations, the exercises are carried out in a playful way: with a preliminary description of the depicted object, riddles, poems, nursery rhymes, sayings, finger gymnastics. Therefore, graphic dictations turn from a difficult activity into an exciting game.

Six- to seven-year-olds must operate with the concepts of “point” and “cell”, distinguish between the corners and sides of a cell and name them, otherwise it will be difficult to draw a certain image from dictation. The teacher is faced with the task: not only to teach children to complete the task carefully and carefully, but also to strive to depict a schematic object or object correctly so that it looks like a sample or picture.

It is important that the adult first clearly explains to the child the task and the sequence of its completion, and then just as clearly and leisurely dictates the order of drawing lines across the cells. Be sure to constantly monitor the correctness of the image; if necessary, stop and correct the baby, paying attention to errors and inaccuracies.

Games that are good for the mind

Conducting classes with graphic dictations helps:

accustom a preschooler's hand to writing;
consolidate the ability to navigate on a notebook sheet;
develop imaginative and logical thinking, memory, attention;
cultivate perseverance, determination, accuracy.

Teachers, speech therapists, and psychologists use cell drawing tasks in their work. Graphic dictations help educators improve their children’s knowledge of the basics of mathematics (counting, orientation, magnitude). With the help of such tasks, speech therapists develop graphomotor and speech skills, auditory and visual memory. For psychologists, the results of children’s graphic dictations give more full description level of readiness for school.

Types of graphic dictations

The main principle of learning to perform graphic dictations: from simple to complex. After the child learns to distinguish the sides and corners of a cell, he is given simple tasks (circle one or two cells according to a diagram with arrows or under dictation “1B-1P-1N-1L” or “1B-2P-1N-2L”, draw a ladder "1P-1V-1P-1V-1P-1V"). Then you can move on to more complex exercises (draw geometric figures, schematic figures of animals, humans, using both a visual diagram and doing work under dictation).

The more perfect the skills of drawing in cells become, the more serious tasks adults set for the preschooler. So, you can instruct not only to draw a drawing according to a sample or verbal instructions, but also to mark certain areas and points in it with different colors - eyes, spots on the dog’s fur, stripes on the body of a fish, windows in the house on the first and third floors.

They help well to develop the logic of the task of completing the missing elements of the picture.: the child is required to understand what is depicted on the sheet, and then, repeating the pattern or continuing the system of lines, complete the picture.

7 graphic dictations

Below are dictations of different levels of difficulty (in increasing order). You can print them out and practice with your child, or you can take them as a sample and come up with your own options based on them.

The arrows on the diagrams indicate the direction: up, down, left, right.

Graphic dictations can be successfully used for children from 5 to 10 years old.

How to work with these graphic dictations:

Graphic dictation can be performed in two versions:

1. The child is offered a sample of a geometric design and asked to repeat exactly the same design in a checkered notebook.

2. The adult dictates the sequence of actions indicating the number of cells and their directions (left, right, up, down), the child does the work by ear, and then compares his image of the ornament or figure with the example in the manual using the overlay method.

The following notations are used in the tasks: the number of cells being counted is indicated by a number, and the direction is indicated by an arrow. For example, the entry:

Work with tongue twisters and tongue twisters in different ways:

2. Let the child say a tongue twister (pure tongue twister) while throwing the ball from one hand to the other.

3. You can pronounce a tongue twister by clapping the rhythm with your palms.

4. Suggest saying the tongue twister 3 times in a row and not getting lost.

Do finger exercises together so that the child sees and repeats the movements after you.

Duration of one lesson with graphic dictations:

for children 5 years old should not exceed 10 - 15 minutes,

for children 5 – 6 years old - 15 – 20 minutes

for children 6 - 7 years old - 20 - 25 minutes.

But if the child gets carried away, do not stop him and interrupt the lesson.
