Fiction in preschool educational institutions
1.Meaning
Fiction contains enormous opportunities for shaping a child’s personality.
It not only broadens one’s horizons and gives rise to new interests, it explains to the child the life of nature and society, introduces the child to the world of human feelings and relationships, and forms a sustainable interest in verbal art.
She reveals to him all the inexhaustible wealth of the Russian language.
2. Problems
Not so long ago our country was considered the most reading country in the world. We read everything, everywhere and always. Times are changing, and the way we work with printed text is changing.
General technologization, the influence of audiovisual resources, digital and electronic media lead to the fact that in modern society there is a significant decline in the level of reading culture.
At the end of the last century, a wonderful teacher of Russian literature V. Ostrogorsky
argued that the lack of literary education among young people leads to illiteracy, ignorance, and lack of desire for science and art.
Therefore, the problem of introducing children into book culture requires increased attention.
We, teachers, must create an environment in which education and erudition become the rules of good manners.
Is this possible in kindergarten, since children are still so small and cannot read?
Of course, we can and even should do this.
At this age level, it is very important to introduce children to the golden fund of children's books. After all, if in preschool age a child does not understand and does not feel that reading a good book is interesting, then at school, when he sits down with textbooks and a computer, he will no longer fall in love with fiction.
According to psychologists, familiarity with books begins in the first year of life. A child becomes a reader long before he learns to read.
Preschool children have access to such types of reading activities as reading-listening, reading-looking, reading-communication, reading-thinking, reading-experiencing.
A book in kindergarten and at home should not only become part of the objective world surrounding the child, it should be included in all types of joint activities.

Genres of fiction.
Folklore
.
Russian folk tales, epics, tales of the peoples of the world
.
The fairy tale is close and in tune with the worldview of children. Every fairy tale draws a line between Good and Evil. And in this confrontation Good always wins. Thanks to the fairy tale, children begin to understand the most important truths of human life. A fairy tale helps to form the foundations of morality, morality, by the laws of which they will have to live.
Small folklore forms:
Nursery rhymes, lullabies, counting rhymes, teasers, riddles, tongue twisters, proverbs and sayings, phraseological units.
Works of folklore, with their content and form, gradually and imperceptibly introduce the child into the element of the folk word, revealing its richness and beauty.
Prose.
Novels, short stories, author's fairy tales.
This is the richest genre of children's literature, which reflects a wide variety of themes: educational and humorous, fantastic and heroic, adventure and romantic.
Poetry.
Poems, poems.
A passion for poetry is a distinctive feature of a preschooler.
It lies in the fact that the child, penetrating the emotional world of the poem, experiences and understands its mood. Poetry helps introduce a child into the fascinating world of the Russian Word, multifaceted in its sound and semantic shades, in order to comprehend the linguistic wealth created by many generations.
Fable.
It is recommended to introduce the fables of I.A. Krylov into the reading circle of children aged 6-7 years, many of which will be studied at school. The point of pre-reading is not to understand the moral (that will come later), but to touch upon the understanding of figurative speech.
The book will help you learn about everything
An integral part of primary literary education is the formation of ideas about the phenomenon of literary creativity, familiarity with the facts of the biography of writers and illustrators of children's books.
The artist and the writer, united in one book, express their thoughts and ideas to the reader. Only one is a word, and the other is a drawing.
And the brighter the talent of both artists, the deeper their mutual understanding, the more interesting the book becomes.
For kids, a book without a picture is simply impossible, because their way of perception requires imagery - bright, complete, to help them see the diversity and richness of the world around them.
Native poets
The literary creativity of local poets helps the teacher influence the spiritual and moral development of children, contributes to the cultivation of love for their small homeland, because it covers a wide range of different phenomena and events of nature and society.
* Journey into history
*How beautiful this world is
* Enter nature as a friend
* Life is given for good deeds

Currently, in the era of computer games and an abundance of interactive aids, when it is difficult to captivate children with reading, teachers resort to various means to attract the attention of their parents’ children to the book. There are various examples, technology methods and projects that contribute to the development of interest in children's books and the culture of reading in children of their parents.
Today, a kindergarten teacher faces a difficult task: to remind parents that it is fiction that ensures the cultural development of the child, shapes both his speech and linguistic culture, and sows the first sprouts of morality in the little soul.
I invite you to get acquainted with the multifaceted and multifunctional methods of “Storysec”.
Translated from English, “Storysek” means a bag of stories. The method was developed in 1994 in the UK. Storysec was founded by Neil Griffiths, Doctor of Philology, author of books on teaching children in preschool and school age. Neil believes that first you need to decide “How to help a child become a reader?”, and then “How to teach a child to read!”
The idea of Storiesek is to promote children's reading and provide preschoolers with all the necessary means to enjoy reading books with adults.
Work on the implementation of the “Storysec” technology is carried out in several stages:
Preparatory stage:
- A work of children's fiction is determined to which "Storysec" is dedicated - for example, "Kolobok".
Book selection criteria:
— High-quality illustrations.
— The work is convenient for reading out loud.
— An accessible and interesting level of the book for children’s perception.
— Children's favorite book.
— The book is recommended by parents (teachers, bookstores)
- A bag is being prepared for a set of materials (you can decorate it with the children)
- The remaining components for the kit are selected:
- Toys (soft, from “kinder surprises”, rubber figurines, finger and glove puppets, masks, etc.), which are prototypes of the heroes of the chosen work;
- A popular science book on a topic close to a work of fiction (encyclopedia of animals, for example, an audiobook or DVD).
— DVD with a cartoon based on the work (if available).
— Literary games are being developed, the objectives of which should be: (expanding horizons, developing vocabulary, meaningful reading skills, coherent speech, social skills, self-confidence).
For example, literary games such as: “Complete the story”, “Crocodile” - using facial expressions and pantomime to depict the heroes of the work, “Find the proverb”. It is possible to organize role-playing games based on the work, and use board games. All games must be correlated with the book.
Main stage
Working with works of art:
— Working with a book offers loud reading in a group of children.
— Organize a dialogue (before, during, and after reading the book).
— Discuss with the children:
- How will we hold the book so that it is convenient to look at the illustration?
- Who/what is your favorite thing in the book?
- Has anything similar to what happened in the book ever happened to you?
- Tell me. What words and events were repeated in the book?
- Use other questions too.
- Sometimes ask children to follow the text with their finger while you read the book or after.
- Using toys, act out the contents of the book (by yourself or with your children) while reading the book or after.
— Conduct a game with theatrical elements, where the heroes can be toys or children themselves, encourage children to play out the plots of the book.
— Ask the children to give you the necessary details while reading.
- Talk about props about props, ask the children who they belong to, how and when to use them.
- Focus on the letters. Ask children what letters (sounds) specific words begin with.
— Read a book on roles. Focus on skills: changes in reading speed, intonation, voice timbre, etc.
Working with an audiobook
Organize a group listening to an audiobook with simultaneous (preliminary) completion by group drawing, a master class on making a bookmark for a new book cover, etc.
The main stage of the fairy tale "Kolobok"
- Loud reading of a fairy tale (pay attention to changes in reading speed and voice intonation).
- Conversation based on primary perception of the text
— Did you like the work?
- What did you like?

- Why did the bun roll into the forest?
— What feelings did you have when you listened to the fairy tale? (joy, sadness, worry).
- Conversation on the content of the fairy tale?

— Who did the hero meet first?
—Who else did you meet the bun along the way?
- What kind of fox do you imagine?

You can offer games for the fairy tale “Kolobok”:

— “Funny tongue twisters” - quickly pronouncing the text
-Hare, hare, what are you doing? - I’m chewing the stalk, -Why are you happy, hare? -I'm glad my teeth don't hurt! | The bear shouted in the den The badger shouted in the hole They mumbled and remained silent And we woke up at dawn. |
- "Who is this?" -solving riddles:
The forests hide many troubles, There is a wolf, a bear and a fox. The trouble takes your feet away. Well, guess quickly What is the animal's name? (Bunny) | The hare says to the hare: - I wish he had an appetite! -Appetite is of little use, -I wish I had teeth like yours (Wolf) |
- Determining the main idea of a fairy tale?
(You can't be too trusting).
Consistent educational activities with many stories can continue throughout the day. It can be replenished further, depending on your goals. A million stories can be shared with any family or group to read and study the work. And most importantly, the work on creating a bag of stories is the interaction of all subjects of educational relations, taking into account their capabilities, initiative and interests.
Parents are invited to take part in sewing the bag, preparing decorative ornaments based on a specific theme, making soft toys, finger theater characters, etc.
Teachers select books, educational games, manuals, illustrations, audio and video resources.
Children offer their own options for filling the bag with a variety of materials, help in the production of manuals, and take part in a design project for its design.
The use of Stories allows you to implement the principles and objectives of the Federal State Educational Standard for preschool education because this method helps:
-positive socialization of preschool children through instilling interest in joint activities;
-development of horizons, replenishment and expansion of vocabulary;
- formation of skills in meaningful reading and discussion of a work of art;
- building a sense of self-confidence and stimulating interest in the book.
