Applique from geometric shapes - entertainment with learning

If earlier children were taken to the first class withoutbut today the first-grader has to cross the school threshold for the first time with certain skills and knowledge. And to begin to prepare the baby for study it is necessary in advance, while he is still a preschool child. Of course, it's great if the lessons with the kids are in the forms of games and entertainment.

One way to get to know the simplestgeometric concepts in the game form is an application of geometric shapes. Such an interesting and fascinating occupation, like geometric appliqués, besides knowledge in mathematics, develops practical skills of working with scissors, glue and paper. And, as is known, the development of the motor skills of children's fingers has a huge positive effect on the center of speech. Also, the application of geometric figures helps to awaken the artistic and spatial perception of the world from the growing personality, teaches in the complex to see the components, and in the larger one - the smaller one.

The easiest way for very young peopleserve as a rendezvous in the garden flowers. For a picture with a flower bed, you might need circles of yellow color - for the middle of the flowers - and circles of different colors for the petals. The number of single-colored circles should be a multiple of 6. The flowers should be "planted" on a green sheet. You can take even velvet paper, because the grass should be fluffy. In the production of this work, the child develops the concept of color. Also, the child learns that in one flower in nature, most often all the petals have the same color. A fairy tale "Tsvetik - semitsvetik", told by an adult at work, will brighten up the monotony and introduce the child to the classic work of children's literature.

For children 4-5 years is quite simple, but interestingis the appliqué: "The house in the village." It is suitable for rectangles and triangles. It is best to use multi-colored blanks for applications in such a composition: a rectangle of the wall of the house - one color, for example, blue, a rectangle and a roof triangle - another, for example, red, and the rectangle of the pipe - the third one, for example, yellow. You can also prepare a rectangle window, for example, pink, and a rectangle of the door, for example, green.

For more developed children it is perfectly permissible to suggest to stick on a picture trees. For deciduous, a long brown rectangle - a trunk and a green circle - the crown of a tree.

And you can still do and herringbone! Then it is necessary to prepare also a trunk - a brown rectangle - and several green triangles of different sizes. The green triangles will schematically represent the rows of spruce branches. They need to be placed on the application from the bottom up, taking into account the reduction in the size of each next triangle. Thus, the child has the ability to compare the sizes of the figures.

Before the New Year, this Christmas tree is not bad to decorate with Christmas trees: colorful balls and garlands of flags - triangles and rectangles.

Applique from geometric shapes for childrenmore adults and skillful can be called "Piglet" and consist of three different sized ovals of pink, but slightly different hues, two triangles - ears and four sticks (rectangles) - legs. One large oval will represent the trunk, the second smaller - the head, and the third, a very small - a penny.

First we stick a torso on a blank sheet. Then, inside the oval representing the trunk, we place the head, moving the middle oval to the very edge of the large oval, so that the refined edges of the ovals coincide. Piglet stick on the middle of the head. Thus, we have a "sandwich" made from pink ovals, where each new, smaller piece is stacked on top of the previous one.

Further to the head attach the ears, and to the body -legs. Nostrils, eyes and a tail at the very end of the work will be drawn with a felt-tip pen. But children, for whom such an occupation, as an applique from geometric figures, is not an opening, really cut out black paper and eyes, and nostrils for your piglet.

By the way, working with such applications, children unconsciously in the brain is laid the way of the simplest schematic drawing, which is also extremely important for its development.

And how much joy and pleasure children get when they get out of their hands real, albeit very unpretentious, but already - works of art!
