Why is it “not talking”?
Normally, by the beginning of the second year of life, the child already begins to speak in simple words and has 10-20 words in the vocabulary. By the age of three, this number increases to 3 thousand, and by school age (7 years) speech almost reaches its development the speech of an adult. In theory, everything is simple, but in practice, parents are now and then faced with various deviations from these norms. What could be the reason? Let's consider the most common ones:
- fetal asphyxia during childbirth;
- diseases suffered by the mother during pregnancy;
- conditions of the social environment - inattention to the development of the child's speech, "lisping", bilingualism in the family, a state of stress or fear.
In other words, the problem can be lurking anywhere. The good news is that the percentage of influence of various diseases of the mother during the perinatal period is actually quite small, the same applies to congenital genetic diseases that interfere with the formation of speech. So most of the speech therapy questions and tasks appear as a result of the social factor. This does not obviate the need to timely contact specialists, including medical ones, in order to completely eliminate physical problems. In general, in the presence of any problem or difficulty, it is better to keep in touch with specialized specialists - it is better to pay more attention and wasted than to pay less attention and then fail to fix anything.
What to do?
When parents notice something that does not comply with the norms, they begin to intensively seek a solution to the problem, some evidence of a violation, or, conversely, evidence of the correct order of things. Thus, the first meeting with a speech therapist takes place, to whom they turn with the question of how to improve the child's speech. There can be several violations:
- incorrect pronunciation of sounds;
- "Swallowing" part of a word;
- incorrect construction of words and phrases (rearrangement of sounds and syllables in places);
- impossibility of semantic transmission of information through speech.
These are the most common difficulties that children experience with language development, and an experienced professional will make every effort to correct the situation. But do not forget that the participation of the parents is very important in everything that happens to the child - neither the child nor the speech therapist can cope without their help.
What is the role of parents in this process? It is colossal. It is on the speech of adults who surround the baby that his ability to assimilate information and the possibility of competent, posed and coherent speech depend. What can parents do?
- Clearly and distinctly articulate their own actions, surrounding objects, etc.;
- Gently but constantly correct the child's mistakes;
- Conduct activities with the baby in a playful way, teaching the correct speech;
- Minimize stress, fear and negative feelings.
But these are the most basic, "external" factors. The very structure of homework and its methods play an equally important role. Let's take a closer look.
Features of home activities
As you know, this development directly depends on the forces applied by the parents to the development of the child. However, as in any other business, it is very important here not to overdo it, and for this it is important to remember about the age norms of development and the relationship in it.
So, 1 year old - the child starts talking. It is very important at this moment to replace unpretentious "bibika", "yum-yum" and so on with adult words - "car", "food", etc. At this age, children very quickly absorb the surrounding information, and even if the speech is still far from articulation and intelligibility, then all words and word forms pronounced by others are firmly deposited in the brain.
By the age of 3, the child's vocabulary increases, as well as his speech abilities. You can use more complex structures, it is extremely important to monitor the purity of your own speech. At this age, you can start classes for better development - learning letters, setting sounds. Exercises from articulatory gymnastics, finger games are well suited for these purposes (the development of fine motor skills has a positive effect on the development of the brain, which also has a good effect on the development of speech).
With constant studies, by the age of 6, the child will have an impressive vocabulary, delivered speech and the ability to express himself in complex constructions.
An important feature is that for 3 years there is a developmental crisis "I myself", and it is very important to interest the child in the classes. In addition, the classes themselves should be held in a fun way - in the form of stories, adventures, fairy tales, while the child's involvement in them should be significant. At the same time, an adult should also demonstrate interest in what is happening by his own example; children more often agree to do something together with adults, and not alone.
One more nuance - in no case should you make of developing activities a semblance of a school with its lessons. Young children are physically unable to concentrate their attention for more than 5 minutes on the same object, even if they really need to. Try to pick up the moments when the baby is most calm and ready to receive. Try not to push or force - the best option would be if the child himself offers to work out. Do not reject his desires - this way you will form a good habit and maintain interest in these actions.
But here the question arises - what kind of literature should be used for the development of speech and its correct formulation?
