Production time: 1 week for 4-5 hours a night.

materials: thick cardboard (large box), good large scissors, double-sided adhesive tape, PVA glue (or super glue), a simple pencil, a compass, a protractor, a long ruler - 50 cm, thin colored office paper, decorative ornaments if desired.

1. Draw a beautiful number 2 . To begin with, we lay out the Cardboard box, measure and draw on it the necessary borders of the figure (width: height). Next, we take a compass and draw 2 circles in the upper part of the workpiece in this way - first a small one, then set the distance between them (this will be the thickness of the number) and draw a large circle. Next, draw a straight line from the center of a small circle that bisects the 90 angle. Further, everything is clear from the figure.

I needed a figure with monograms, and therefore I also had to draw outlines by hand based on the figure drawn with a compass and rulers. It turned out like this

Here you can see the gaps on the folds of the box, after cutting them out, they need to be sealed with the remnants of cardboard.

2. Cutting. You need to cut in small steps, gradually bending the number up.

3. Pasting the workpiece with paper and adhesive tape . Before moving on to decorating the front with flowers, it is necessary to glue the back with paper of the desired color.

The front side must be completely glued with double-sided adhesive tape. As you move, you will need to peel off non-sticky paper from it (mustard color, I don’t know how to explain;)).

the previous photo shows how At first I experimented with paper for flowers - I tried corrugated paper, papyrus, but in the end I settled on office paper. She fit the best.

4. flower decoration .

Flower preparations are best done in the course of actions, and not in advance, because their sizes are different, and in some places very small flowers are needed.

So, we make a flower: we take a sheet of office paper and cut out an arbitrary circle.

Then we twist this spiral from the outer edge to the base (in the photo I marked it with a cross), grease the base with glue, press the folded part and glue it to the number (on the tape).

The size of the flower depends on how far the spiral is lowered and on the width of the spiral. Tighter - a small flower, wider and more relaxed - a large one. Thus, we decorate the whole figure.

Our finished version

The number 6 is the hero of many fairy tales and other genres of oral folk art. Among the people, this number was considered unlucky, and they tried to avoid it. However, today, when old superstitions are gradually fading into the past, it is very interesting for children to study this figure, because it is so similar to an inverted nine.

To draw the attention of children to the study of numbers, use riddles, poems, proverbs, tongue twisters, little rhymes and sayings. Whatever class a child goes to, he will always be interested in seeing photos, pictures and presentations. Coloring can play a big role in the development of fine motor skills.

Photo pictures

An excellent technique for attracting the attention of preschoolers and children who go to grade 1 can be the question: what does the number six look like. The guys can answer that it looks like a nine, if you turn it over. And what else can a six look like? Let the children express their assumptions, sometimes the most unexpected ones. Such questions stimulate the development of fantasy, creative thinking. You can also ask the guys what a Roman numeral looks like. She looks very unusual, and looks like an old woman leaning on a wand.

To make it easier for children to show their imagination and find associations, a picture, photo, presentation will help you, where you will find many objects similar in appearance to the number 6.

Poems, counting rhymes

Floorboards, sayings, tongue twisters, poems, riddles will be excellent assistants to teachers and parents in working with children. You can download them on our website. Children who go to grades 1-4 can be given a homework assignment to pick up a rhyme where the number and number 6 will be involved. Let them pick up the material and learn it by heart.

Riddles play a huge role in the development of thinking. They are a special kind of oral folk art, in which a description of an object or phenomenon is given, and the child must guess what it is about. Riddles use a special kind of artistic expression called metaphor. Riddles about numbers will help kids better remember what the number and number 6 look like.

Proverbs and sayings are also genres of folk art, but they acquire a more instructive character. Proverbs and sayings can be used during the lesson for children who go to grades 1-4 in order to develop speech. Children can be asked to find proverbs and sayings at home, where the number 6 sounds. Such tasks develop independence and the ability to think. It is not without reason that proverbs have become an expression of folk wisdom.

For the development of speech, poems, tongue twisters or poems by modern authors are perfect. Tongue twisters exist not only folk, but also author's.

If you take poems for classes with kids, then it is better to use poems written by S. Marshak, A. Barto and other well-known modern authors. Such poems are created especially for children.

Visual Techniques

A great opportunity to interest preschoolers in learning the number 6 is coloring. Also, the coloring will be useful for children who go to grades 1-4 for the development of fine motor skills of hands.

Excellent visual aids for working with the guys will be a picture, presentation, photo. Interesting photos can be shown on the video, they can be included in the presentation. The number “six” can be placed on the photo, surrounded by objects that the kids need to count. Also, the presentation can be aimed at getting acquainted with examples where the number 6 is involved. You need to solve them with the teacher or together with the parents. The presentation and photos are on our website: they can be downloaded for free.
