Developing Gienesh blocks
This training manual consists of two parts. The first is for the smallest. It is a flat image, consisting of multi-colored geometric shapes (for example, a flower from circles or a house of a square and a triangle). Complete with the pictures are the same, but already three-dimensional figures that need to be laid out in a similar way.
The second part of Gienesh's development aid is, in fact, the logical blocks of Gienesh. These are plastic three-dimensional figures of different colors. Also in the kit are tasks for drawing up figures. For example, a child is asked to add a rectangle of two squares, and so he learns what the "whole", "part" and "half" are in a clear example. Of course, purchasing development materials alone is not enough - parents and teachers must deal with children.
Developing sticks of Cuisener
Techniques of early development, in addition to the logical blocks of Gyenesch, also include the use of Cuisener sticks. These are long colored prisms of different length and color. And they are colored not randomly, but in accordance with a certain system developed by the author of the technique. So, the sticks, multiple in length to two, are red, and multiples of three are blue. Playing with such a tool, the child begins to orientate faster in the world of numbers, because he simultaneously operates at once three concepts:
In working with kids, sticks can be considered, remember their colors, compare lengths, in game form, by analyzing the basic concepts of mathematics. Also, a special album with pictures will come to the rescue: they need to be laid out like a mosaic using sticks of the appropriate length and color.
Preschoolers are very fond of such lessons! But even the 7-8-year-olds, who do not learn math well at school, are happy to do albums, where they are selected for more complex assignments, with logical blocks of Gyenesha and Cusuener's chopsticks.
