Automation of the Sound Sh in Play Exercises. Preschooler's Album

The manual offers a system of exercises for automating the sound Sh for preschoolers aged 4–7 years, transforming monotonous and repetitive work on consolidating the pronunciation of the sound established by the speech therapist into an interesting game. Simultaneously with the automation of the sound, the child's reading skills are improved, fine motor skills are developed, and creative imagination is stimulated. Working with the manual contributes to a faster automation of the sound in spontaneous speech, the development of phonemic hearing, the improvement of the syllabic structure of words, the correction of the lexical-grammatical structure of speech, the reinforcement of knowledge about the automated sound and the corresponding letter, and the formation of the skill of sound-letter analysis of syllables and words. Automation is carried out according to the traditional scheme in speech therapy. The effectiveness of corrective work is ensured by the use of several auxiliary techniques (working with three-dimensional and flat toys, counting sticks, creating game situations during lessons). The manual is intended for conducting individual work with a child and is addressed to speech therapists, educators of speech therapy groups, and parents of children with speech impairments.
