XIV Международная студенческая научная конференция Студенческий научный форум - 2022

Mathematics plays a leading role in the development of a child with autism spectrum disorder. The speech therapist teacher in his class not only works on the formulation of sounds and the development of speech, but also sets tasks such as the development of memory, attention, thinking, imagination.

Special pedagogical, speech therapy and psychological technologies should be aimed at solving this problem, since a child diagnosed with an Autism spectrum disorder has its own characteristics.

Each such child is unique, therefore, the process of forming elementary mathematical concepts should be built taking into account the individual characteristics of the pupil.

We selected didactic material in a playful form, which was supposed to help develop not only the mathematical skills of children, but also their cognitive spheres in speech therapy classes.

Didactic games on the formation of mathematical representations can be divided into several groups:

1. Games for the orientation of the child in space and time;

2. Games with geometric shapes.

Didactic games for the development of mathematical abilities:

1. The game "Repeat the same thing" is aimed at the development of phonemic hearing, memory, attention. Musical instruments are used (maracas, spoons, tambourine, drum, bell). During the game, the child listens to the musical instruments played by the teacher. Then he has to repeat as many times as the teacher. The other children monitor the correctness of the task.3. Games for matching numerals with different parts of speech;

2. The game "One or many?" is aimed at familiarization with the concepts of "one-many". The game develops auditory attention and memory, the ability to analyze, compare and establish the regularity of the arrangement of elements in a row. The child is offered a stem from a flower without petals (the petals lie separately on a plate). The teacher during the game asks the children along the chain: "One or many?". All children answer:

• "One petal of a flower"

• "Many petals of a flower")

The teacher praises them.

3. The game "Left, Right, In the Middle" is aimed at the formation of spatial representations, develops children's attention and thinking. There are cards with different objects on the table, the teacher asks the children in turn to name any object that is depicted on the card (left, right, in the middle).

4. The game "Magic Bag" is aimed at fixing quantitative numerals in the child's speech. Develops phonemic hearing, attention, thinking. The children themselves take pictures out of the bag, naming the objects and their number. (For example, one car, two dolls...)

5. The game "Geometric Lotto" is aimed at developing attention and thinking. For the game, you will need cards that depict geometric shapes (monochrome contours). There should be a different selection of figures on the cards. The speech therapist shows the figure and asks the children to see if they have such a figure that matches the one drawn on the card. Depending on the knowledge and skills of the guys, the games can be simplified or complicated (there may be more or less figures).

6. The game "When does it happen?" is aimed at forming ideas about the parts of the day: morning, afternoon, evening, night. Children are given pictures related to a certain time of day. The educator suggests considering the picture and then naming the time of day depicted on it.

7. The game "On the Contrary" is aimed at children's understanding of the differences in size, length, and quantity of objects. The teacher asks to continue the chains, for example: high (low), short (long), a lot (little).

8. The game "Name the days of the week" is aimed at fixing temporary concepts. Children are asked to answer where Monday or Tuesday stands, what day of the week stands before Wednesday, etc.

9. The game "Guess the magic word" is aimed at consolidating knowledge about geometric shapes, the development of the child's speech as a whole. Each child is given cards with geometric shapes in which letters are drawn. Children are offered another card, on which they must glue the correct shape with a letter.

10. The game "Who is following whom?" is aimed at fixing the ordinal score, which subsequently helps children to better assimilate the sound-letter analysis of words. Cards from the fairy tale "Turnip" are used. The teacher asks: "Who is the granddaughter following?", "Who is in front of the Bug?". The children respond.

It is important that after each exercise the child is given a token of gratitude for the completed task. Thus, the child is motivated to acquire knowledge and develop skills. Tokens should be different, taking into account the uniqueness of children with autism spectrum disorder.

Thus, it can be concluded that the teaching of mathematics and the development of speech of children with autism spectrum disorder are inextricably linked and mutually dependent.
