Before learning to read, the child must learn the very concept of syllables. Before you start learning to read and write, the baby must recognize the letters and be able to correlate them with sounds. The next step is to learn syllables. Interesting manuals for learning syllables can be downloaded from our website.

Is it difficult to teach a child to combine letters into syllables?

How to learn to read?

At the beginning of learning to read, it is necessary to convey to the child such concepts as vowels and consonants, sounds and letters. Vowel sounds are stressed and unstressed. Among the consonants, voiced and deaf, hard and soft are distinguished.

By the way, the hardness-softness of sounds should be given special attention. This characteristic of sounds within a syllable is determined by soft or solid signs or vowels after consonants.

So, the letters E, E, I, Yu, I indicate the softness of the previous consonant sound, and the letters E, O, U, S indicate hardness.

The table of all syllables on our website will help to illustrate soft and hard consonants. It can be read online or downloaded and printed from our website.

Syllables for children for learning to read can be represented as a game. To teach your baby to read, you need to download the syllable table and print it out. Then cut into individual cards. To prevent syllables and cards from wrinkling, they can be glued onto thick cardboard. Now we will try to present syllable combinations to children in the form of a game.

Reading games

A table of all syllables, which you will need to download from our website, will help teach your baby to read. Soft and hard consonants, as well as vowel sounds and letters in it are marked with different colors for contrast. Thus, syllable combinations look bright and colorful.

First, we teach the child to distinguish syllables in Russian from each other. To do this, you will need not only cards where the syllables of the language are written for reading, but also an entire table of syllables. To do this, you will have to download and print it again. We lay out the table and ask the child to match the cards with syllables and the corresponding cell in the table. So gradually the baby will memorize individual syllabic combinations and name them, and then read. Thus, we form a lotto from a table, but instead of images, there are letter combinations.

At the next stage of learning to read, we offer the child a couple of different syllables and combine them into a word. Please note that before starting this game, the child must read individual syllabic combinations well, and then put them into words. For example, we take the syllable ZHA and add the syllable BA to it. It turns out toad. You can draw arrows or come up with fairy tale hero, which will go from one syllable to another and combine them into words. As a result of such a simple game, the child will quickly learn to read.

Syllabary tables

Since there are a large number of letter combinations in the Russian language, we suggest studying each consonant separately in combination with all vowels. Thus, the table for one game becomes much smaller in volume, and it is easier for the child to put all the syllables in their places. You can also download these tables on our website. Here are examples of what syllables might look like for your kids in tables:

Common mistakes

Often in speech, kids confuse syllables with the letter "x", "g" and syllables with the letter "g", "k". Also, confusion occurs when a child pronounces syllables with the letter "d", "g" or syllables with the letter "k", "p". These consonants are very similar in sound. When composing words from them, try to pronounce them as clearly as possible. At the stage of learning to read, you can download tables with similar sounds, cut out cards from them and try to make words similar in sound, focusing on the difference in spelling.

When studying letter combinations of the Russian language with children, try to interest them. If you have a magnetic alphabet at home, try to make some words out of the letters. They can be conveniently attached to a tablet and then read. Let the kid make up his phrases, and you read them.

Word creation should be a collective game: one child will not be interested. Teach your child and learn with him!

IN kindergarten also the start of the school year. Children gradually come from holidays. Many have learned letters over the summer and begin to read a little by syllables.

Where do texts for reading by syllables come from? Of course, from the primer. Old primers are interesting, according to which grandmothers studied. The second source is the Internet. We also prepare texts for our pupils of 5-6 years old, depending on the available skills, starting with simple and short texts. It is better to read little by little, but more often.

In the first syllable-reading texts, each sentence begins on a new line. This makes it easier for children to read the text. The first texts to read by syllables should be printed large.

It is useful to accompany them with coloring pages - a work familiar to preschoolers. Tasks are like this.

  1. First you need to read to your mother, grandmother or someone else.
  2. Colorize.
  3. Label the items in the picture.

Why write words? When a child reads, hearing and vision interact. When writing, - auditory (I pronounce), visual (I fix the image of the word) and motor analyzers.

In addition to narrative texts, it is useful to use short simple verses for reading by syllables.

How to prepare texts for reading by syllables?

Parents teaching their child to read can prepare the material themselves. You need to know the following. Texts for reading by syllables may look different. It all depends on how we divide the word into syllables.

1. We divide the words into syllables as in the primer with hyphens (short horizontal lines). Below, several texts are divided into syllables in this way.

2. Words are divided into syllables by vertical lines.

3. Syllables are distinguished from below by arcs.

Like that. It is better to start with the first option with hyphens. The first texts should be very simple in content, as below, gradually getting more complicated.. First, you give a picture for coloring. And then the kid draws himself according to the meaning of the text. Reading texts can also be downloaded from our website. Just prepare them in one of the ways suggested above.

Your baby has learned letters, actively adds syllables and small words. It's time to move on to more complex, but interesting tasks- reading texts. But here parents and teachers expect some difficulties. It is impossible to offer a preschooler text cards without taking into account the characteristics of age, the degree of development of the skill of syllable reading. We will tell you in our article how to choose texts for reading for preschoolers, where to find and how to correctly print texts for reading by syllables for younger and older preschoolers.

Age features of preschoolers

Kindergarteners after 5 years are very active, mobile, inquisitive. They rapidly grow up, grow wiser, develop physically and mentally.
When preparing for school, parents, teachers should pay attention to the following age characteristics of kids 4-7 years old:

  • The main need of kindergarteners is communication, games. Children ask a lot of questions to adults, themselves, peers. Learn by playing.
  • The leading mental function is imagination, fantasy. This helps to show creativity.
  • Emotions, impressions, positive experiences are important for further development, the desire to continue activities. Kindergartener 5-7 years old needs praise, support, lack of comparison with other children.
  • Cognitive processes are actively developing: attention, memory. Remember and analyze at 5-7 years old preschoolers can a large number of information. But you need to give it in doses, trying not to overload the children's brain in one lesson.
  • Speech becomes more developed. At 5 years old, the baby speaks complex sentences, can pick up several synonyms for one word, knows many poems, riddles, several fairy tales by heart.
  • Kindergartener wants to learn new things and learn. The kid is spurred on by curiosity, he is interested in everything new, unknown.

Consider age and individual characteristics preschoolers choosing texts to read. In this case, the training sessions will be more effective.

How to work with texts

Reading poems, short stories for a preschooler is a new kind of work. The difficulty of completing the reading task lies in the fact that the kindergartener does not always understand the meaning of the passage. To avoid this, you need to approach the choice of material and methods of its processing correctly. Build the learning process as follows:

  1. Select handouts according to the age of the student. For kids 4-5 years old, cards of 1-3 sentences, for older preschoolers - 4-5 sentences.
  2. Pay attention to the number of words in the sentences. There should be few of them. Simple texts for reading for preschoolers are easier to digest, but you can’t stay at an easy level for a long time.
  3. Move on to working with text cards after automating syllabic reading.
  4. Read in a chain in a group or together with adults in individual work.
  5. Don't rush your child. At the learning stage, reading comprehension is important, not the speed of reading and the amount of time spent.





Texts for children 4-5 years old

Young preschoolers need special suggestion cards. Reading by syllables for children under 5 years old is best accompanied by text with pictures. For example, coloring pages with comments. Coloring will be an additional task.

If for the first time we read by syllables, the texts for reading should consist of 1-2 sentences. Use small words, 1-2 syllables. Cards can be prepared independently, found on the web and printed.

For young students, it is important that there is a hyphen or other separator between syllables. Choose a font for printing material for reading by syllables at 4 years old, large, bold.

  • Learning to read by syllables through working with text does not have to begin after learning the entire alphabet. Find for reading to children from 5 years old and print out individual sentences from such words, which consist of learned letters. There are many of them in the Zhukova alphabet.
  • At the age of 4 to 5 years, it is not necessary to offer children a whole fairy tale, a book. Large volumes scare kids, distract with colorful drawings on other pages. Print only the section you want.
  • Play with a passage, a poem. You can read a word separately, then a phrase, then a whole syntactic unit.
  • Work according to the following algorithm. First we read, then we discuss, draw, fantasize.










Tasks

After reading the texts, be sure to study the material additionally. This is necessary for a solid assimilation of information, the formation of meaningful reading skills. Offer preschoolers the following types of assignments for the passage:

  1. Short retelling.
    The kindergartener should tell what he learned, what information was the main thing in the text. It is advisable to use the words read, to name the names of the characters, their actions.
  2. Answer the questions.
    Speech therapist, parent ask 1-3 simple questions about the material read.
    If the baby does not answer them, you need to read the passage together, with the adult's comments.
  3. Draw a picture.
    We play illustrators. Children come up with a plot picture based on the information received from the passage, the poem. It could be homework.
  4. What happened next?
    Offer to dream up, think of what could happen to the characters next.

Reading texts with pictures and tasks:




















Texts for children 6-7 years old

If you are preparing reading texts for children 6-7 years old, then you can print out entire paragraphs. For work, choose excerpts from fairy tales, short stories. With large works, you can work 2-3 lessons. Do not forget about short stories from the alphabet or primer.

  • Work through the sentences in a chain, try to involve each student.
  • After reading the short passage for the first time, discuss the content. If you find any misunderstandings of the information, read the passage again.
  • If we read individually by syllables, different texts for reading to children of 7 years old should be printed on separate sheets.

Texts with tails:






A year or two before school, we think about teaching our child to read. After all, we know that the sooner our preschooler learns to read, the more useful information he can get even before he becomes a first-grader. Once your child learns, you can move on to learning syllables. It is these syllables for reading that can be downloaded from this page.

Syllable cards are the key to reading. Download, print and cut the sheet into cards, on which there will be bundles of syllables consisting of a vowel and a consonant. In just a few weeks, after the child learns to read each syllable, he will be able to make out whole words in children's books.

Syllables by letter: download or print immediately

Syllables starting with "B"

Syllables starting with "B"

Syllables starting with "G"

Do not load the child with reading all the syllables at once. For example, during the week, teach your child syllables that begin with the same beech.

Syllables starting with "D"

Syllables starting with "Zh"

Syllables starting with "Z"

For the second week, study the syllables that begin with a different letter, and the learned syllables, just repeat.

Syllables starting with "K"

Syllables starting with "L"

Syllables starting with "M"

There is an opinion that letters of different colors, in syllables for reading, only distract the child, and do not contribute to rapid learning.

Syllables starting with "N"

Syllables starting with "P"

Syllables starting with "R"

If you want to resolve cards with syllables quickly, then use a ruler and a wallpaper knife.

Syllables starting with "C"

Syllables starting with "T"

Syllables starting with "X"

To make the cards last for a long time, and not just one child, laminate them.

Syllables starting with "F"

Syllables starting with "C"

Syllables starting with "Ch"

After the preschooler learns to read all the cards with syllables correctly, you can move on to reading books in which the words are broken into syllables.

Syllables starting with "Sh"

Syllables starting with "Sh"

Trainer for beginners. Simple words.

The book is wonderful. But the kids do not want to strain and put the letters into words, it is much easier to look at the picture and guess from the very first letter what is written under the picture.

Therefore, I suggest you download these sheets. They have a lot of words and no explanatory pictures. Nothing will distract the kid from the reading process. And since there are only three letters in each word, it will not be very difficult to read them.

And how many of them - words consisting of three letters? There are more than a hundred such words on these leaves. So the child will have something to read.

New cards for practicing reading skills. This time in the selection there are words of 4 letters, but with one syllable.

That is, the words have only one vowel.

DAY, LOAD, TERM, OVEN, SEVEN, NIGHT and so on.

More than 100 words are collected on two sheets, consisting of 4 letters and 1 syllable.

When reading, the child must not only compose a word from letters, but also comprehend what he read. Ask your child to explain each new word.

We continue to improve our reading skills.

The next selection is already two-syllable words of 4 letters. On the first card there are words with the so-called "open syllable". They are easy to read. Ma-ma, ka-sha, no-bo, re-ka, puddle and similar words.

The second card is more difficult. The words on it contain both open syllables and closed ones. Ma-yak, ig-la, y-tyug, yacht-ta, o-village, el-ka and so on.

Each card has over fifty words. So the child will have to work hard until he reads all the words.

We read new words syllable by syllable. Words already consist of 5 letters. Wagon, baby, tu-man, mar-ka, re-dis, lamp-pa. And so on. If the child confidently reads these one hundred and fifty-plus words, you can assume that your baby LEARNED to read! Rather, he learned to put words out of letters.

    Thank you very much for the very useful information in the article. Everything is very clear. It feels like a lot of work has been done to analyze the operation of the eBay store.

    • Thanks to you and other regular readers of my blog. Without you, I wouldn't be motivated enough to dedicate much of my time to running this site. My brains are arranged like this: I like to dig deep, systematize disparate data, try something that no one has done before me, or did not look at it from such an angle. It is a pity that only our compatriots, because of the crisis in Russia, are by no means up to shopping on eBay. They buy on Aliexpress from China, since there are many times cheaper goods (often at the expense of quality). But online auctions eBay, Amazon, ETSY will easily give the Chinese a head start in the range of branded items, vintage items, handicrafts and various ethnic goods.

        In your articles, it is your personal attitude and analysis of the topic that is valuable. You do not leave this blog, I often look here. There should be many of us. Email me I recently received a proposal in the mail that they would teach me how to trade on Amazon and eBay. And I remembered your detailed articles about these auctions. area I re-read everything again and concluded that the courses are a scam. I haven't bought anything on eBay yet. I am not from Russia, but from Kazakhstan (Almaty). But we also do not need to spend extra. I wish you good luck and take care of yourself in Asian lands.

  • It's also nice that eBay's attempts to Russify the interface for users from Russia and the CIS countries have begun to bear fruit. After all, the vast majority of citizens of the countries of the former USSR are not strong in knowledge of foreign languages. English is spoken by no more than 5% of the population. More among the youth. Therefore, at least the interface in Russian is a great help for online shopping on this trading platform. Ebey did not follow the path of the Chinese counterpart Aliexpress, where a machine (very clumsy and incomprehensible, in places causing laughter) translation of the product description is performed. I hope that at a more advanced stage in the development of artificial intelligence, high-quality machine translation from any language into any will become a reality in a matter of fractions of a second. So far we have this (profile of one of the sellers on ebay with a Russian interface, but an English description):
