Game exercises
The program of any preschool educational institution contains all stages of training. Therefore, you should not start the process from the middle, as the child will not learn the material. Initially, children are introduced to the definition of quantity.
To do this, use toys or color pictures that can be compared. Dolls, trees, animals, etc. will do. You can act out a small scene: Big Winnie the Pooh wants a small toy as a gift. And the little donkey Eeyore hopes to get a big ball.
Important! You can select characters based on the child’s interests. Some people like cars, others like dolls.
The work program contains certain goals. Children are taught to relate shapes. To do this, take cardboard rectangles in which holes are cut out in the form of different geometric shapes. The task of preschoolers is to choose a suitable patch.
Education of cultural and hygienic skills in the 2nd junior group
Showing visual material is an integral part of learning. Toys, counting material, and color pictures are suitable for this. All this is necessary in order to correctly form ideas about numbers and computational operations.
Before children begin to learn numbers, they need to understand the difference between “one” and “many.” For this purpose, counting material and appropriate cards are used.
Preschoolers are shown one toy duck and several ducklings, asking them to compare and guess what the difference is. Only after this has been mastered do they move on to mastering numbers.
The definition of “more or less” is gradually being formed. Do not rush your child if difficulties arise. Everyone has a different learning speed.
When children master counting to 5-6, they are offered more complex tasks. Cards are given with hedgehogs holding different numbers of apples on needles. Preschoolers should arrange them in ascending or descending order.
According to the Federal State Educational Standard, by the end of training at a preschool educational institution, a child must have certain competencies. Generalization, classification, exclusion, comparison and other mathematical operations are available to him. This is important for good learning in school.
There are different simulators for developing counting skills
There is a lot of debate about the use of new technologies in the form of presentations and interactive games. Some deny their benefits, while others see the future in this. Children enjoy computer activities and enjoy such entertainment.

How to conduct classes with a child 6-7 years old
A child in preschool age has great developmental potential and cognitive abilities. Parents simply need to help their child realize his potential. The time spent will definitely pay off. Help from parents can make future schooling enjoyable. And the adults themselves will not be upset about their child’s academic performance.
Activities with preschoolers
Here are a few tips for getting the most out of your workouts:
- Classes shouldn't be boring.
The best motivation for learning is interest. It turns children into creative individuals and provides an opportunity to feel satisfaction from their activities.
- Exercises must be repeated constantly.
Improvement in mental abilities is tested with time and duration of practice. If you cannot complete the exercise, you need to take a break and return to it later. A less complex or equal version of the task will also solve the problem.
- Be patient and take your time. It is unacceptable to offer a child tasks that exceed his real capabilities.
- Insufficient progress in classes, according to adults, should not cause anxiety in parents.
- The duration of lessons should be moderate, exceeding is unacceptable.
Mathematical classes in the second junior groups of preschool educational institutions
If a child has lost attention due to fatigue, it is recommended to occupy him with other activities. It is necessary to determine the degree of endurance of the baby in order to slightly increase the duration of the lesson each time.
- The game form of learning is best suited for preschoolers.
- It is extremely important to regularly support the child and praise him for his perseverance and efforts. It is not recommended to compare a preschooler with other children. This helps build self-confidence.
On a note! Working with a child is joy and pleasure, not hard work. This is the best opportunity to establish friendships with your child.
