What is vocabulary?
Let's first define what vocabulary is, and then move on to riddles (at the bottom of the article)
The concept of vocabulary is defined as the vocabulary of a language. This vocabulary, that is, the dictionary, is used by every person. However, it is divided into active and passive: the first type of dictionary is a set of words that are used in communication, the second is words that a person knows, but either does not use them or uses them extremely rarely. It is interesting that the volume of a person’s active vocabulary is several times smaller than the volume of a passive one.
With normal development of a child, his vocabulary should be as follows:
- 1-1.5 years – 100 words;
- 2 years – about 400 words;
- 3 years – average 1100 words;
- 4 years – about 1600 words;
- 5 years – about 2200 words.
From the data presented, you can see that the vocabulary of older preschoolers develops much faster than that of younger preschoolers.
In order for lexical development to be more successful, adults must constantly communicate with the child. However, this communication should not end at the level of “hello, bye,” “how are you,” etc. Parents should introduce the child to the names of objects, animals, phenomena or actions, ask questions, talk with the baby, create situations that will help detect the child’s incorrect use of words. Don't neglect trips to the zoo, theater, circus or nature - this is excellent material for expanding your child's vocabulary.
According to the degree of development of the child’s speech, his vocabulary is systematized and organized, and an understanding gradually comes of how words need to be combined according to meaning and semantics. The formation of vocabulary is usually carried out in the following areas:
- enrichment of the vocabulary, in which there is an expansion of ideas about the environment and the formation of cognitive activity (memory, perception, thinking, etc.);
- specifying the meanings of words;
- analysis of a word as a structural speech unit of language;
- formation of semantic fields according to various characteristics, lexical systematicity;
- activation of the dictionary, development of word search skills.
Classes for lexical development in the form of games are considered the most effective. In this way, children remember and assimilate new material better and faster, they develop auditory attention, and establish correct perception and reproduction of speech. The following methods are used in vocabulary classes:
- examination and examination of objects, their comparison, differentiation, generalization;
- viewing paintings, discussing the depicted subjects;
- reading fiction, learning poems;
- solving riddles;
- conversation on toys with a description of their characteristics;
- didactic games, etc.
Today, 4 tasks are identified that pursue the lexical development of children:
- Enriching the child’s vocabulary with new words and their assimilation and understanding.
- Consolidation and clarification of vocabulary.
- Activation of the dictionary.
- Eliminating words from children's speech that are not literary (dialects, jargons, colloquial words).
Riddles on lexical topics for preschoolers help to remember new words.
