Application "Alphabet of good speech" for classes with preschool children.
The main task is to help the child learn the ABCs. Thanks to the health component, which underlies the entire “Learning and Getting Healthy” series, thinking, attention, memory, creative imagination develop more effectively, and children’s behavior is corrected. By practicing regularly, the child will learn the ABCs, learn to read syllables, identify sounds in words, strengthen and maintain his health.
This manual can be used by educators, speech therapists, other specialists in preschool educational institutions (including foreign language teachers), in school preparation groups, as well as tutors and parents for individual work with children.
Each of us is faced with the question: how can we ensure that our children grow up intellectually without any loss of health, have correct speech and a high readiness to learn?
This manual is the result of 40 years of work by a group of scientists from St. Petersburg led by Alexander Smetankin. The innovative methodology of A. Smetankin “BF-Health” (BF - Biological Feedback) is an effective way to solve the problem of intellectual development of preschool children without compromising their health. The classes are based on the method of diaphragmatic breathing with maximum Respiratory Arrhythmia of the Heart - DAS (more details on the website biosvyaz.com) or breathing according to Smetankin. This method is the basis for the development of an optimal balance of the main nervous processes of the central nervous system: processes of excitation and inhibition.
Diaphragmatic breathing is physiological for a child and contributes to his normal mental development, teaches children to think, structure information, prepares them for cognitive activity, works on speech as the main form of manifestation of intellectual development and at the same time makes our children healthier.
To use the health component in teaching, it allows the child to study the material in the rhythm of optimal breathing, which ensures the maximum value of DAS for preschool children: this is 12 respiratory movements per minute.
Why is it important? Because the speed at which the material is presented depends on its perception and memorization. The duration of one breath is 5 seconds, of which inhalation is 1.5 seconds, exhalation is 3.5 seconds. Didactic material opens on the computer screen and is presented in exactly this rhythm. The baby’s task: adjust his breathing to the movement of the strip on the screen.
