How to use printable assignments
How to work with picture puzzles for children:
- print out the proposed puzzle picture, prepare scissors, and, if desired, a clean sheet of paper and glue;
- Explain the task to the child. That's it, the part for adults is over;
- then completely independent work : cut the puzzle along the contours;
- reassemble the puzzle in the correct order;
- stick on a blank sheet of paper as a finished applique.

Drawn pictures
For the formation of a passive vocabulary, pictures for children depicting various toys are of great importance. It is very good if they are presented in a wide variety, this allows you to offer the child many different speech exercises and activities.
For speech therapy games, it is much more convenient to use cards rather than real objects. Sorting and describing images not only contributes to children’s speech development, but also improves them:
- visual-figurative thinking;
- RAM;
- attention.
Of course, it is very difficult to draw such pictures yourself; it is better to find ready-made ones selected by professional speech therapists.
