Train made of geometric shapes. Didactic game “Mathematical miracle train”

There are many fun ways to fill time, but applique from geometric shapes will become one of the most entertaining hobbies, because it allows you to create real masterpieces of art. Afterwards, it will be possible to decorate the interior of the home, creating a special atmosphere for relaxation or performing household chores.

Applications made from colored paper have gained great popularity in preschool and school educational institutions. It allows you to comprehensively develop a child’s skills, improving his basic abilities:

• motor skills;
• thinking;
• fantasy;
• dexterity;
• accuracy and others.

Types of applications

Depending on the type of projects or paper crafts created, this hobby can be divided into 2 types:

What can you make from geometric shapes from colored paper?

There is no single standard, as well as a program for teaching children, how to make various applications from colored paper, because each person’s imagination is very different.

The main task is to develop all the basic skills in them. In most cases, the teacher independently decides what pictures the children will make or gives them the opportunity to independently choose what they want to do. This is how not only motor skills develop, but also thinking, as the child chooses the character he likes.

Simple compositions

First, simple flat figures are mastered. For example, a train applique would be a great option for boys. It can be composed of several regular geometric figures, which will be cut out by the teacher or the child himself, depending on age.

Children begin to confidently hold scissors in their hands only at the age of 5-6, and cut out complex figures of irregular shapes in the first grade. In fact, it all depends on the child’s development, his activity and abilities. That's why a train would be a great start.

It will require:

• 3 rectangles of different colors and sizes. 1 will become a platform, 1 – a driver’s cabin, 1 – a water tank;
• the semicircle will be the front of the tank;
• an inverted isosceles triangle can become an exhaust pipe;
• a pair of circles - wheels;
• a long rectangle - a rod for eccentric connection of wheels.

The child learns from the presented materials to fold an image on a sheet of paper, spread glue evenly, and evenly combine the parts together. Fine motor skills, thinking, and imagination develop if you invite him to make a train without an example.

Another fairly simple version of a paper masterpiece is a bird applique. It will require one large circle for the body, a couple of semicircles for the wings, several small triangles for the legs and beak.

You can create pictures of various animals from geometric shapes, letting your child think for himself which one he can make.

Volumetric applique made of colored quilling paper

After developing the skills of creating flat compositions, they proceed to volumetric applications from colored paper. Such crafts will be more difficult to master, so they are used in teaching for older children. For example, in group 4 kindergarten or 1st grade. Guys with good abilities can be assigned to a circle.

In the first stages, it is better to master simpler volumetric compositions. For example, a house applique with cutting templates like a good option. The wall may be flat, but the windows, roof and exhaust pipe may be protruding.

The method of adding volume is used differently. Paper parts can be bent, or they can be glued on an additional leg onto a background of the same dimensions, creating a 3D effect with a shadow.

Butterfly applique is one of the simple options that many children can master, even when making a composition in volume.

To do this, you can cut out 2 identical parts. Glue one completely, and bend the second in half and glue it in the center. This is how you get wings. The head is formed from a circle, and the body from a strip.

Volumetric compositions from simple figures

For younger children, you can suggest making an applique from circles of colored paper. From these, if you have some imagination, you can make both flat compositions on a white sheet and three-dimensional ones.

With circles, abstract thinking will develop well if you invite the child to complete an arbitrary picture.

When children's imagination is already somewhat developed, they move on to more complex tasks. For example, mosaic applique is a good option for further development of skills.

Give your student a set of cuttings of different or the same shape so that he can come up with a composition on his own. If there are enough colors, you can get quite colorful pictures.

Cutting templates

If you don’t know where to start with your child’s development, then use a ready-made bunny template for appliqué or other animals.

There are many interesting sets with which you can comprehensively develop children's skills. In any case, all applications contribute to the formation of such qualities as:

• figurative and spatial thinking;
• perseverance;
• endurance;
• fantasy;
• manual dexterity and motor skills;
• accuracy.

As you reach a new level, the tasks for creating compositions can become more complex.

Tangram is a wonderful game-aid that develops a child's thinking and imagination. From several pieces of cardboard of different geometric shapes, it turns out that you can put together an incredible number of shapes - numbers, animals, letters, etc. To begin with, young children can be asked to simply repeat assembling a tangram into one shape or another after the pictures. You can print examples of shapes from the attached files, as well as the basis - geometric shapes for a tangram.



16 cards depicting geometric shapes.
On the back of the card there is data on the item drawn in the picture, so that each parent can tell the baby Interesting Facts and what this item is intended for. Activities with cards will help you introduce your child to the world around him and develop speech skills; teach to compare, classify, generalize.


A game for children who have just begun to learn about geometric shapes.
The archive contains 4 cards with images of a sheep, a fish, a snail and a turtle,
on which figures of different sizes are located.
Cards with geometric shapes should be cut out and offered to the child.
Correctly fill in the blank spaces in the picture.
Also, geometric shapes differ in size (from smaller to larger)
and color (from light to dark).

Multifunctional game for learning colors, shapes, number of objects, learning addition and subtraction within 10.

To make it I needed:

1. colored cardboard

2. glue stick

3. white cardboard

4. simple pencil

5. scissors

6. ruler

7. tight file

8. self-adhesive paper

Step 1:

We cut out geometric shapes from colored cardboard so that each type of shape is the same color: oval - 10 pieces; square - 10 pieces; circle - 10 pieces; rectangle - 10 pieces; triangle - 10 pieces.

Step 2:

We make trailers for the miracle train. To do this, cut out 5 blanks from brown cardboard. We bend along the lines, bending the edges inward.

We duplicate the front wall of the trailer from a thick file, gluing it to the brown blank with transparent tape on the sides and bottom. Leave the top part unfastened. It turned out to be a double pocket.

This is how we make 5 trailers.

Step 3:

Cut out the parts of the train from self-adhesive paper. My little train made of geometric shapes.

Step 4:

Glue two sheets of white cardboard together. On one side we assemble the train and glue it. Next, we glue the trailers one by one so that they are voluminous - in the form of a double pocket. Cut out wheels from black cardboard and glue them on. The locomotive is ready.

Step 5:

Let's start making cards. To do this, we cut out squares from white paper that are slightly smaller than the transparent pocket. There should be 10 such cards for each type of figure. On each card we write numbers from 1 to 10 and next to it the corresponding number of figures. We cut out 13 more cards, write mathematical signs on them - plus, minus and equals and numbers from 1 to 10.

For younger children, we insert a card with a task into a transparent pocket in each trailer, and the kids must find the appropriate number of given figures and insert them into the cardboard pocket.

For older children, you can create examples of addition and subtraction within 10.

Good luck and creative success to everyone!

Didactic game “Train of Geometric Shapes”

Didactic game

"Train of Geometric Shapes"

aimed at the formation of elementary mathematical representations in children 3-4 years old.

Target:

learn to correlate geometric shapes by shape, find identical shapes, consolidate knowledge of colors, develop the ability to place cubes in a certain order according to a pattern.

Description:

The didactic game consists of six cubes of different colors (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo). Each “car” cube has a geometric figure glued on it, and at the bottom of each cube there is a strip with “wheels” in blue and green. The first cube is designed in the shape of a steam locomotive. The “cars” are connected to each other with Velcro. If you place the cubes incorrectly, they will not connect. TO play set 12 geometric figures (6 pairs) and a diagram are included.

Progress and

games: Using these cubes, the child is asked to make a train and place two identical geometric shapes in each of the carriages. A child can make a train out of cubes using the proposed diagram or focusing on the stripes at the bottom of the cubes. To maintain interest in the game, you can use small toys. For example, organize the game “Help the Elephant transport geometric shapes.”
