These entertaining educational tasks are intended for children from 3 years old. By doing these tasks, the child will be able to consolidate the skills of orientation in space, to master such spatial concepts as: right, left, right, left.
Ask your child to answer the questions in full sentences. Spatial concepts: left, right, right, left are necessary for the study and memorization of the baby. Therefore, this knowledge must be consolidated in everyday life.
Tasks to consolidate the concepts: Right, Left, Right, Left

How to teach a child to navigate in space?
Orientation in space:
To consolidate the concepts of left, right, right, left, the child must learn:
- - Distinguish between right and left hand
- - Lay out objects with your right hand from left to right (for right-handed people)
- - Determine directions from yourself: right (right) - left (left)
- - Move in a given direction (left-right)
By the age of five, the child should be able to freely navigate the concepts listed above. Therefore, it is necessary to devote a sufficient amount of time to developing this skill, conducting classes with the child in the form of various games and exercise.
The child needs to start introducing the concept of “right” and “left” as early as possible! The child does not confuse the leg and the arm, so why does he confuse right hand and left? They are different parts of the body! The child learns to understand the words "leg", "hand" even in early infancy, and the question of right and left arises before him much later, when the development of new words is no longer so easy.
Learning the concept of "before and after"
Educational activities for children for orientation in space Before or After. What is before the specified subject, and what is after the specified subject.
These tasks on the study of the concepts of "Before and After" will help prepare the child for school.

Teaching preschoolers to navigate in space: games and exercises
GEF requirements for preschool and primary education include the formation of cognitive actions, skills of comparison, analysis, synthesis. Such actions are directly related to the ability to navigate in space. Children come to first grade with different levels preparation. Elena Kochurova, senior researcher at the Center for Primary General Education of the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Institute for Education Development Strategy of the Russian Academy of Education", told about what educational activities first-graders need to work with space and what a child should be taught before moving to primary school.
Tasks in the first grade: why children need to know where is right, left, up and down
Focusing on the UMK "Mathematics" for elementary school V.N. Rudnitskaya, we will analyze the types of work in which first-graders need ideas about space.
1. Establishing patterns, working with shapes
In the first grade, children work a lot with figures: they classify them, group them and arrange them in a certain way.
Job example:
How does the “machine” shape change? Lay out on the left the figures that were introduced into the "machine". Name the figures in pairs.
Such tasks assume that the child already knows where left and right are, can determine the relationship of figures in space (“The big yellow pentagon was entered into the car from the left, and the small yellow pentagon came out of the car from the right”).
2. Working with a ruler, calculations
The movement along the scale of the ruler is in the first class the basis of addition and subtraction. It is important that the child understands the structure of the number series: if we go in increasing order, then each next number is one more than the previous number. In addition, children learn to draw segments on a ruler: hold a ruler with their left hand, draw a drawing with their right.
Job example:
How much must be added to each of the numbers 9, 8, 7, 6 to get the number 10?
3. Working with tables
When solving problems with tables, a child needs to understand the location of an object both in a column and in a row - this is also space.
Job example:
Masha laid out her toys so that they formed 3 rows and 3 columns.
Answer the questions:
What toys are in the middle row? in the middle column? on the top line? in the right column? in the left column?
In which line is the ball? Which column is the bucket in?
Describe the location (name the row and column) of the doll, cone, flag.
Which toy is located in the top row and right column? In the bottom row and middle column?
4. Construction
Working with different parts requires understanding how they are laid out on the table relative to each other, how they need to be moved to make a given figure. The inability of a child to work with tangrams is a clear sign of a low level of development of spatial thinking.
5. Writing numbers
Introducing students to writing numbers, the teacher shows and tells where the movement begins, where to lead the hand - which, of course, includes spatial concepts. For example, the number "2": "From the black dot, draw a line up to the top side of the cell and turn to the right. We lean on the right side of the cage, draw a line, round it, and draw a line to the middle of the bottom side of the cage. From this point draw a tail to right side cells."
6. Score in a column
It's no secret that even in the second grade, when working with two-digit numbers, children sometimes confuse addition and subtraction algorithms: they calculate from left to right. It is spatial representations that make it possible to remember and bring to automatism the calculation algorithm in a column.
7. Olympiad tasks
The most difficult Olympiad tasks also require understanding of calculation algorithms.
Job example:
Put a "+" sign between the numbers 2 9 3 7 4 6 0 8 1 5 so that the total is 432.
How to diagnose a child's understanding of space
Corporation "Russian Textbook" offers a manual "Pedagogical Diagnostics" for the first grade. Job #1 to do in the early days school year, includes tasks for the diagnosis of spatial thinking. Let's consider one of them.
Dictation: count 4 cells from the black cell to the right, paint over the fifth with a red pencil.
Target: identify the ability to listen and understand the task; the ability to execute an instruction consisting of several successive actions; ability to navigate on a plane (left, right, up, down); the ability to count cells.
Getting ready for school playing
The manual "Learning to navigate in space" for children 5-7 years old (author Elena Kochurova) contains game tasks and recommendations to help parents and educators develop their child's spatial thinking. Here are some tasks from the manual.
Game "Left, Right"
Invite the child to stand in the middle of the room and follow the commands: “Extend your left hand in front of you. Turn left. Drop your left hand. Tell me what is in front of you now. Raise your right hand. Turn right. Drop your right hand. Tell me what is in front of you now. Now, without turning, take a step to the left, a step forward, a step to the right, and a step back.”
Right - left, right - left, between
Tell your child how important it is to know spatial directions and be able to answer questions: what is located to the left (right), left (right). Then look at the drawings with the child and invite him to complete the tasks.
Answer the questions: who is sitting to the right of the boy, to the left of the boy, between mother and daughter?
Answer the questions: who is sitting to the right of the bear cub, to the left of the fox, to the left of all, to the right of all, between the hare and the fox?
Color the apple to the left of the flower with a red pencil, and color the apple to the right of the flower with a green pencil.
Thicker - thinner, wider - narrower
An adult examines the pyramids together with the child and asks him to complete the tasks.
Say which of the rods of the pyramids is thicker and which is longer. Answer the question: which rings can be put on a thick pyramid rod, and which ones - on a thin one? Draw lines to the rods from the rings that can be put on them.
Show which board is shorter, which is thinner, and which is wider.
Draw by cells
Offer the child a task: draw a train in the cells so that it moves from left to right.
We look at objects in front, behind, on the right, on the left
Tell your child that the same object can be viewed from different points of view. If dad, mom, son and daughter sit down with different sides square table and look at the teapot that stands in the center, then everyone will see the teapot in their own way, from their own point of view. Each member of the family can tell about what details of the kettle are visible to him: whether the spout is visible or only the handle, whether the handle is visible or only the spout is visible, the spout of the kettle looks to the right or left. Tell yourself and ask the child to describe how some objects look from different points of view: front, back, right, left. Invite the child to complete the task:
The artist drew the nesting doll from four different directions: front, back, left and right. These directions are indicated by arrows in the figure. Name the direction from which each small drawing is made.
So, in the process of playing activity, the child learns important skills that will be useful to him in the first grade.
Target:the formation in children of the ability to navigate on a plane and in space.
Tasks:
Formation of knowledge and skills to distinguish between left and right;
Development of motor skills with the help of finger gymnastics;
Formation of a positive attitude towards joint activities(ability to work in a team).
The teacher and children enter the group in formation. The teacher reads A. Barto's verse "Drummer", and walks with the children around the group:
("Funny Pictures", 1981, No. 11)
The teacher and children stop.
Educator: Children, it seems to me that in order for us to march more fun, we need a drum. How do you think?
The children answer.
Educator: Where can we get a drum?
There is a piece of paper on the floor, the teacher draws the attention of the children to this. Then he picks up the paper.
Educator: Children, this is a note. "If you want a drum, you need to go through a winding road according to the instructions: go straight first, then left, left again, then right and straight ahead." This is just what we need. You just need to know which is left and which is right. Children, you know?
The children answer.
Educator: And now I will check you. Let's play this game: if I say "right hand" you raise your right hand up, if - " left hand”, then raise the left one.
The teacher says which hand to raise and corrects the children who show their hands incorrectly.
Educator: No, we can't find a drum like that. We all need to know where is left and where is right. Let's learn to distinguish between left and right. Come to me, I will tie a ribbon on everyone's right hand.
Children go to the teacher.
Teacher: Now raise your right hand.
Children raise their hands.
Educator: Remember, the side on which you have the ribbon is right. On this side you have the right arm and leg, and where there is no ribbon, it is the left side, left arm and left leg.
Educator: Let's sing a song about the left and right legs. Look at me, repeat the movements and watch which hand you make the movements.
Left and Right (exercise song from the series " Finger gymnastics» E. Zheleznova)
Here is the left (raise the left hand with the back side towards you) and the right one (raise the right hand with the back side towards you)
That's just their name (keep both hands up).
Girlfriends are inseparable
Always walk together (hit your knees with your hands imitating walking).
Both the left (raise the left hand with the back side towards you) and the right (raise the right hand with the back side towards you)
Let's go for a walk alone (hit your knees with your hands imitating walking)
Found a big puddle
And they began to jump in it (at the same time they hit their knees with both hands).
All wet cold
They barely walk (slowly hit your knees with your palms imitating walking)
Suddenly left (raise the left hand with the back side towards you) and right (raise the right hand with the back side towards you).
We met a lion.
And he opened such a mouth (depict the mouth of a lion with his hands: press the hands, the fingers of both hands should not touch each other)
And it growls so scary (then connect, then separate the fingers)
That the left (hit the left hand on the knee) runs home
And the right one (hit the knee with the right hand) runs.
They ran to the house (raise your hands above your head, depicting a roof).
Look: both are here (show both hands).
But just forgot
What are their names now (shrug).
Where is the left, where is the right
Do not disassemble by yourself (shrug shoulders, arms to the sides).
Rather look
And tell them (the teacher stretches out two hands forward and turns to the children for help)!
Children first show where their left and right hands are, then they help the teacher.
Educator: Well done! Now let's take the ribbons off our hands and play again the game we played at first: if I say "right hand" you raise your right hand up, if - "left hand", then raise your left.
The teacher says which hand to raise, then complicates the task by asking to show both the right and left foot. When all the guys stop getting confused, the teacher stops the game.
Educator: Now you can hit the road. Let's stand at the beginning of the path and read out where we should turn. I will read and you will show. “Go straight first, then left, left again, then right and straight”
Children show the way.
After walking the path according to the instructions, the children with the teacher find a box with a drum.
Educator: Well done! Let's each try to play the drum, and then I'll take the drum, and you and I will march again to its sound.
The teacher and children try to play the drum. Then the teacher himself beats the drum and reads the verse A. Barto « Drummer", and walks with children in a group.
