The grammatical structure of speech - what difficulties do children experience?
Preschoolers between the ages of six and seven experience particular difficulties in working with case-prepositional nouns and with the endings of nouns when changing case in the plural.
These children also find it difficult to coordinate adjectives with nouns and work with the past tense of verbs.
In children with ODD, the functions of determining patterns in the morphology of language, their generalization and reproduction in the process of producing speech utterances are poorly performed.
These children also have difficulties with the grammatical structure of speech. There is an urgent need for correctional work to eliminate defects in grammatical structure. One of the most important conditions for the formation of literate speech in preschoolers is the creation of a favorable speech environment.
Those around them, without knowing it, with their speech habits have a powerful influence on the speech skills of their children - either positive or negative. A child has the ability to imitate his parents in everything. Therefore, he easily perceives any correct or incorrect elements of speech from mom and dad.
When observing a child’s speech, it is worth noticing whether he uses generalizing words or whether he uses subordinate clauses in his speech. These signs clearly indicate that the preschooler has abstract, abstract thinking. Such skills not only contribute to literate and understandable speech, but also increase its accuracy and expressiveness.
Didactic games in the formation of speech grammar
Didactic games also play a big role in the formation of the grammatical structure of language and correct speech in preschool children.
It is best to conduct didactic games with a group of children. It has been noticed that it is games in a group that best contribute to the development of a child’s intelligence and his ability to interact with other people.
Didactic games conducted during speech correction classes for preschoolers helped to improve the level of grammatical structure of speech, which clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of this method as a means of developing grammatically correct speech in preschoolers with SLD.
