The task is aimed at developing attention , observation, memory, self-control, and also prepares children to understand the operation of subtraction.
"Lotto"
Goal: mastering the ability to identify various forms.
Material: cards with images of geometric shapes.
Contents of the game: Children are given cards on which 3 geometric shapes of different colors and shapes are depicted in a row. The cards differ in the arrangement of geometric shapes and their color combinations. Children are presented with the corresponding geometric shapes one by one. The child, on card there is a presented figure, takes it and puts it on his card so that the figure coincides with the drawn one. Children say in what order the figures are located.
"Pick a figure"
Goal: to consolidate children’s ideas about geometric shapes and practice naming them.
Material. Demonstration: circle, square, triangle, oval, rectangle, cut out of cardboard . Handout: cards with outlines of 5 geometric lottos.
cards on your tables with figures of different shapes drawn on them, and the same figures on trays. Place all the figures on the cards so that they are hidden." Asks the children to trace each figure lying on the tray, and then overlays ( "hide"

The teacher takes out two toys - a teddy bear and a Katya doll. He tells the children that Misha and Katya want to be dressed up today, and for this they need belts. He calls two children and gives them ribbons rolled into a tube: one short - a belt for Katya, the other long - a belt for the bear. Children, with the help of V., try on and tie belts for toys. The toys express joy and bow. But then the toys want to change belts. The teacher suggests taking off the belts and changing their toys. Suddenly he discovers that the doll’s belt doesn’t fit on the bear, and the belt is too big for the doll. The teacher offers to examine the belts and spreads them side by side on the table, and then places a short ribbon on a long one. He explains which ribbon is long and which is short, i.e. he gives the name for the quality of quantity - length. After this, V. shows the children two cardboard strips - a long one and a short one.
Shows children how to compare strips with ribbons by overlapping them and tell which one is short and which one is long. "Wide - narrow"

The lesson is carried out in a similar way , but now children learn to distinguish the width of objects, i.e. wide and narrow ribbons of the same length. When creating a game situation, you can use the following game technique. Two cardboard strips are laid out on the table - wide and narrow (of the same length)
.
along a wide strip (path)
, but only one of them can walk along a narrow strip. Or you can play the story with two cars.
"Three squares"

Teacher: Children, I have 3 squares, like these (shows)
.
This one is the biggest, this one is smaller, and this one is the smallest (each of them shows)
.
And now you show the largest squares (children pick up and show, put them down. Now raise the middle ones . Now - the smallest ones. Next, V. invites the children to build towers from the squares. Shows how this is done: places on the flannelgraph from the bottom up, first the large one, then the middle one , then a small square. “Make such a tower on your flannelgraphs,”
says the teacher
"Hoop Game"
Goal: distinguishing and finding geometric shapes.
Game content: 4-5 story toys are used for the game (doll, nesting dolls, basket, etc.)
;
differing in size, color, shape. The toy is placed in a hoop. Children identify the characteristics characteristic of the toy, put into the hoop those geometric shapes that have a similar characteristic (all red, all big, all round, etc.)
Outside the hoop are figures that do not have the selected characteristic
(not round, not big, etc.) d.)
“Let’s collect beads”
Goal: to develop the ability to group geometric shapes according to two properties (color and shape, size and color, shape and size, to see the simplest patterns in the alternation of shapes.
Equipment. There is a long ribbon on the floor, on which figures are laid out from left to right in a certain alternation: red triangle, green circle, red triangle, etc.
Contents of the game: Children stand in a circle, in front of them are boxes with multi-colored geometric shapes. The teacher offers to make beads for the New Year tree. He points to a ribbon with laid out geometric shapes and says: “Look, the Snow Maiden has already started making them. What shapes did she decide to make the beads from? Guess which bead is next.” Children take two of the same figures, name them and begin to make beads. They explain why they lay out this particular figure. Under the guidance of the teacher, mistakes are corrected. Then V. says that the beads have scattered and need to be collected again. He lays out the beginning of the beads on the tape, and invites the children to continue. He asks which figure should be next and why. Children choose geometric shapes and arrange them in accordance with a given pattern.
"Seek and find"

; trays, typesetting cloth.
The teacher hands out sheets of paper to the children and places trays with geometric shapes on the table. He says that now they will lay out a beautiful pattern, shows a sample of the action: “Big square. (Takes the form and inserts it into the typesetting canvas)
.
A small square, another small square." (Inserts it back into the canvas, etc.)
then the teacher suggests laying out the forms under dictation. At the beginning, he makes sure not only that the values are correctly alternating, but also that the children act from left to right and maintain the same distance between elements. When the task is repeated, other forms are given, and their alternation also changes. In conclusion, the teacher examines the resulting patterns and gives all works a positive assessment.
