  • VII. Questionnaire for the teacher to analyze the features of the individual style of his pedagogical activity (A.K. Markova)
  • “The lower the level of a child’s mental development, the higher the teacher’s education level should be,” wrote P. Schumann, a well-known German teacher and defectologist, at the beginning of the 20th century. Like ordinary children, a child with special educational needs has the right to receive a qualified pedagogical assistance, which can only be provided by a specially trained teacher-defectologist. For successful pedagogical activity in the structure of special education, ordinary pedagogical training is absolutely not enough.

    The professional activity of a teacher-defectologist goes beyond the traditional teaching activity, closely interacting and intertwining with various types of socio-pedagogical, rehabilitation, consultative-diagnostic, psychotherapeutic, corrective and other types of "non-teaching" activities, being directed towards one goal - to promote a person from handicapped life activity in its social adaptation and integration by means of special education. The sphere of professional activity of a teacher-defectologist is such that he often has to be the initiator and active participant in social actions of mercy, charity, protection of the rights of persons with disabilities.

    The teacher-defectologist works in close connection with the medical staff, implementing a comprehensive medical and pedagogical approach to eliminating disorders in people with disabilities and correcting the pathology against a favorable background. Given the need to participate in correctional work with children with special needs of teachers, educators and parents, the teacher-defectologist pays great attention to working with the teaching staff of the school and parents to promote special knowledge.

    The professional activity of a teacher-defectologist is one of those that are associated with professional hazards that have a negative impact on health. In this regard, there are contraindications to this type of work for those who have deviations in the state of health and a significant discrepancy between the personal psychogram and the professional psychogram of the teacher-defectologist. The work of a teacher-defectologist makes high demands on the state of health of the organs of vision, hearing, nervous, cardiovascular and immune systems. Physical endurance, high resistance to infectious diseases, stable mental health are needed. Specialists and, of course, speech therapists, need to have correct speech and flawless pronunciation of sounds.

    A teacher-defectologist is a person with a special mentality. Key features professional nature teacher-defectologist - kindness, responsibility, optimism, patience, empathy, energy, dedication to their work, loyalty to the vital interests of people with disabilities, respect and love for their pupils, professional honesty and decency. It is characterized by a humane assessment of a person in modern world, including people with disabilities.

    There are few professions whose results would be equated with a miracle. When, as if by magic, the tragedy and hopelessness of life prospects for the child and his family recede, when the child can live a normal childhood life - play and learn, communicate with parents and make friends with peers, perform on the school stage, make crafts and draw, prepare to be an adult a person who needs his country.

    The professional activity of a teacher-defectologist is akin to the miracle about which it is written in the New Testament:

    “They brought to Him a deaf, tongue-tied man and asked Him to lay His hand on him.

    Jesus, taking him aside from the people, put his fingers in his ears and, spitting, touched his tongue;

    And looking up at the sky, he sighed and said to him: "Effafa", that is, "open".

    And immediately his hearing was opened, and the bonds of his tongue were loosed, and he began to speak clearly...

    And they marveled exceedingly, and said: He does everything well:

    And he makes the deaf to hear and the dumb to speak” (New Testament // From Mark, ch. 7; st. 32, 33, 34, 35, 37).

    TEACHER-DEfectologist

    The competencies of a teacher-defectologist act as a means and condition for the development of the competencies of his students. This is especially significant in connection with the problems of personal and professional development of people with OPFR, issues of their quality of life, development, and subsequent employment.

    Directions of work of a teacher-defectologist:

    1. diagnostic direction.

    The main task of this direction is to predict possible difficulties in the education and development of each child, to determine the causes and mechanisms of problems that have already arisen.

    There is no single, uniquely successful method, method or form of work with students and their parents. It all depends on the specific situation, which cannot be passed by, and sometimes it should be specially created.

    3. Analytical direction.

    It includes an analysis of the process of corrective influence on the development of the student and an assessment of its effectiveness.

    Our site has been in existence for five years. I have been working at the point for the third year. The total number of students receiving assistance at the point this year is 22. Three students receive advisory assistance.

    Students have the following speech development disorders:

    Four students of the first grades have the conclusion "Unsharply pronounced general underdevelopment of speech."

    In speech therapy, the concept of "general underdevelopment of speech" (OHP) is applied to such a form of speech pathology in children with normal hearing and primary intact intelligence, in which the formation of all components of the speech system is disturbed, i.e. there is a late appearance of speech, a meager vocabulary, agrammatisms, defects in pronunciation and phonemic formation.

    This type of underdevelopment is understood as insufficient development of vocabulary, grammatical structure and phonetic side of speech for one reason or another.

    Children in this category experience persistent difficulties in mastering the primary education program. secondary school due to insufficient formation of the speech function and psychological prerequisites for mastering full-fledged educational activities. Without such help, they not only experience difficulties in the process of communication, but also find themselves among the staunchly underachievers.

    General areas of work with children with HB OHP include:

    1. Development and improvement of psychological prerequisites for learning: stability of attention; observation (especially to linguistic phenomena); memorization abilities; ability to switch; skills and techniques of self-control; cognitive activity; arbitrariness of communication and behavior.

    2. Formation of full-fledged learning skills: planning upcoming activities, monitoring the progress of one's activities (from the ability to work with samples to the ability to use special self-control techniques); work at a certain pace (the ability to quickly and accurately write, count; analyze, compare, collate, etc.); application of knowledge in new situations; analysis, evaluation of the productivity of their own activities.

    3. Development and improvement of communicative readiness for learning: the ability to listen carefully and hear the teacher-speech therapist, without switching to extraneous influences; submit your actions to his instructions; the ability to understand and accept the learning task set in verbal form; the ability to purposefully and consistently (in accordance with the task, instructions) to perform learning activities and adequately respond to the control and evaluation of a speech therapist.

    4. Formation of communicative skills and abilities adequate to the situation of educational activity: answers to questions in strict accordance with the instruction, task; answers to questions in the course of educational work with adequate use of the acquired terminology; application of the instruction (algorithm); the use of learned educational terminology in coherent statements.

    Three pupils of the first grades have a speech disorder "Erased form of dysarthria"

    The erased form of dysarthria is one of the most common and difficult-to-correct disorders of the pronunciation side of speech in children of primary school age, associated with organic damage to the central and peripheral nervous systems.

    This is a violation of the pronunciation side of speech, due to a lack of innervation. speech apparatus.

    With minimal dysarthria disorders, there is insufficient mobility of individual muscle groups of the speech apparatus (lips, soft palate, tongue), general weakness of the entire peripheral speech apparatus due to damage to certain parts of the nervous system. Today it can be considered proven that, in addition to specific disorders of oral speech, there are deviations in the development of a number of higher mental functions and processes responsible for the formation of written speech, as well as a weakening of general and fine motor skills.

    Studying the anamnesis of children with erased dysarthria, factors of an unfavorable course of pregnancy and childbirth, asphyxia, a low Apgar score at birth, the presence of a diagnosis of PEP - perinatal encephalopathy in the vast majority of children in the first year of life are revealed.

    To carry out successful correctional work with children with an erased form of dysarthria, it is necessary to highlight the main aspects:

    The implementation of a differentiated approach in overcoming dysarthria, with increased or decreased muscle tone.

    Formation of clear static-dynamic sensations of the articulatory muscles.

    Consistency in the work on the formation of phonemic operations, the development of the melodic-intonation side of speech, the processes of breathing, voice formation, articulation.

    The communicative orientation of training is the use of plot, didactic games, project activities in the process of automation of sound pronunciation.

    Three more pupils of the first classes have the conclusion of dyslalia (various forms). This is a violation of sound pronunciation with normal hearing and intact innervation of the speech apparatus, the most common violation among the violations of the pronunciation side of speech.

    These disorders are manifested in defects in the reproduction of speech sounds: their distorted pronunciation, the replacement of some sounds with others, the mixing of sounds, and - less often - their omissions.

    The causes of various forms of dyslalia may be associated with pathologies of the speech apparatus or the characteristics of the speech education of the child. If we are talking about the physiological form of the disease, then it is based on the age-related underdevelopment of organic structures, which is corrected as we grow older.

    Mechanical dyslalia is a consequence of genetically determined acquired or congenital anomalies of the organs responsible for speech. One of the common causes of the mechanical type of the disease is a shortened hyoid frenulum, which impedes the movement of the tongue. Proper articulation can be difficult even with the disproportionate size of the tongue itself. In some cases, the factors contributing to the occurrence of dyslalia are various anomalies in the structure of the dentoalveolar apparatus: a strongly protruding upper or lower jaw, gaps in the dentition, an abnormal structure of the palate, a splitting of the palate, too short a frenulum of the upper lip.

    The main work to overcome dyslalia is the correction of sound pronunciation, that is, the formation of skills and abilities for the correct reproduction of speech sounds. With the right organization speech therapy work a positive effect is achieved with all types of dyslalia. With mechanical dyslalia, in some cases, success is achieved as a result of joint speech therapy and medical intervention.

    A prerequisite for success in working with students with the listed disorders is the creation of favorable conditions: emotional contact between a speech therapist and a child, an interesting form of organization of classes, a combination of work methods to avoid overworking the child.

    Teachers-defectologists of the junior school department apply phonetic rhythm. This is a system of motor exercises, which is aimed at the formation of phonetically correct speech. Phonetic rhythm helps the child to normalize speech breathing, change the pitch and strength of the voice, perceive, distinguish, reproduce various rhythms, express emotions using various intonational means.

    Exercises for the development of fine motor skills of the hands. Training the movements of the fingers and hands is the most important factor stimulating speech development child, contributing to the improvement of articulatory movements. In my work, I use finger games, graphic dictations on lexical topics, tracing templates and shading images, various tasks with handouts, SU-JOK, etc.

    Articulation gymnastics, which is the basis for the formation of speech sounds - phonemes - and the correction of violations of sound pronunciation; it includes exercises for training the mobility of the organs of the articulatory apparatus, working out certain positions of the lips, tongue, soft palate, necessary for the correct pronunciation of both all sounds and each sound of a particular group. With children of primary school age, articulation gymnastics is carried out by imitation based on pictures.

    Breathing exercises.An individual lesson with a younger student begins with exercises to activate breathing. Proper speech breathing ensures normal sound formation, creates conditions for maintaining normal speech volume, strict adherence to pauses, maintaining speech fluency and intonation expressiveness. In practice, we use a variety of games for the development of breathing, for example, “Breeze”, “Leaf fall”, “Pinwheel”, etc.

    The remaining 12 students from the 3rd to the 5th grade have in the conclusion violations of written speech, namely various types of dysgraphia, one student has a conclusion - dyslexia (in addition to dysgraphia).

    Dysgraphia is the inability (or difficulty) to master writing in the normal development of the intellect. In most cases, dyslexia and dysgraphia are observed in children at the same time, although in some they can occur separately. Dyslexia is a violation of the ability to master the skill of reading.

    Dysgraphia in children is a disease expressed in violations of the development of written speech. Very often, parents do not even suspect that this disease is present in a child. The appearance of dysgraphia is due to the lack of formation of some mental functions, due to which there is a partial violation of the very process of writing words. Dysgraphia junior schoolchildren may manifest itself in the presence of persistent or frequently recurring errors. The problem has nothing to do with the child's ignorance of the spelling rules. The disease manifests itself in approximately 30% of school-age children, usually detected in second-graders. Many parents believe that various new education systems are to blame for this problem, causing students to have learning problems due to brain overload. But this is not true, as well as the fact that this disease is a consequence of the mental retardation of the baby. Mental retardation or impairment of this function is in no way associated with the occurrence of dysgraphia in schoolchildren.

    Violation of the writing process cannot arise without reasons and rarely exists on its own. As a rule, the problem also affects: the lexical and grammatical side of speech, sound pronunciation, speech coherence, phonemic perception.

    Therefore, very often the functional and organic causes of dysgraphia coincide with the causes of such disorders as: dysarthria and dyslalia. Dysgraphia in a child may also appear if he has encephalitis, birth trauma, or there was asphyxia during childbirth.

    Symptoms of dysgraphia in school age, as well as the symptoms of dyslexia, can also appear with brain damage or its underdevelopment during pregnancy.

    Types of dysgraphia and their features:

    In general, dysgraphia is divided into 5 main types, but I will briefly talk about two types found in my students.

    This is an acoustic form of dysgraphia. Deviations are expressed in the replacement of the correct letters with those that correspond to sounds close to them. Replaceable pairs include: deaf and sonorous sounds - P-B, T-D, F-V, Sh-Zh; hissing and whistling - F-Z, Sh-S, as well as couples S-C sounds, C-T, W-H, W-T. In the pronunciation of sounds in words, no violations are observed.

    And the second form is dysgraphia on the basis of a violation of language analysis and synthesis. Because this form is the most common, it is commonly referred to as the motor form. The motor form of dysgraphia is usually expressed in the appearance of specific errors.

    For example: a child skips letters or whole syllables in words, does not add words, rearranges syllables or letters in words, adds extra letters to words, repeats any letter or syllable in a word, combines syllables of completely different words in one word, separates from words prefixes, and prepositions are written together with words.

    The main work to overcome dysgraphia in younger students is aimed at the differentiation of phonetically similar sounds, the development of syllabic and phonemic analysis and synthesis.

    A speech therapist is not an understudy of a teacher and, while doing his main job of correcting speech defects in children, he must create a platform for the successful assimilation and correct application of grammatical rules by students, i.e. to bring students to an understanding of grammatical rules, on the one hand, and on the other hand, to consolidate the educational material given by the teacher, associated with the correctional process.
    The main task is to educate children's linguistic instinct.

    The relationship between the correctional and educational processes contributes to the successful assimilation by students of the material on mother tongue generally.

It includes speech therapy, oligophrenopedagogy, deaf pedagogy and tiflopedagogy.

    Pedagogy in the form of rules and instructions for adults on childcare appeared a long time ago. First systems pedagogical education originated in ancient Greece (IV-V centuries BC).

    In Europe in the Middle Ages, in modern times and in the Renaissance, a large number of different pedagogical theories. The most famous teachers of that time were Pestalozzi, J. Locke, Rousseau, and others. In Russia, L. N. Tolstoy, K. D. Ushinsky, A. S. Makarenko, and others made a great contribution to the development of Russian pedagogy.

    The position of "social teacher" was introduced in 2000. This innovation was dictated by such facts as the increase in the number of children with deviant behavior, the growth of juvenile delinquency. Previously, this problem was dealt with by the class teacher and the organizer of extracurricular activities.

    Who is a defectologist?

    Defectologist is a specialist with professional training in such a field as defectology ( also called correctional pedagogy ). It should be noted that a defectologist is not a doctor, but this specialty is at the intersection of medicine and pedagogy. Defectology deals with the developmental features of children with mental or physical disabilities. Also, this industry specializes in the development and implementation of the principles of education and training of such children. Accordingly, a defectologist is a specialist whose competence includes working with children with certain mental or physical disabilities.

    To work as a defectologist, you need to get a higher Teacher Education majoring in defectology. During the training, future defectologists, in addition to pedagogical disciplines, receive training in psychology and some areas of medicine. A specialist with such an education can work in an institution as a teacher ( kindergartens, schools), and medical ( clinics, hospitals) profile. Defectologists can also be on the staff of various rehabilitation institutions, centers for social protection and psychological assistance.

    Teacher-( teacher)-defectologist

    A defectologist teacher is a specialist who is on the staff of an educational institution ( kindergarten, schools) general or special profile. Such a teacher can work both with individual patients who have certain problems, and with all pupils or students ( for example, in specialized institutions for children with visual or hearing impairments).

    The main task of this specialist is to correct and compensate for the shortcomings that exist in the child. Correction means correcting a problem that disrupts the normal perception of the world around. Compensation is a compensation for an existing deficiency through the development of other, similar capabilities and skills in a baby.

    This specialty combines many areas, since the principle of working with a child who has hearing problems is different from the approach to a child with mental disabilities. Today there are 4 main directions in defectology.

    A defectologist may have one of the following specializations:

    • Surdopedagogy. This specialist works with those children who suffer to some extent ( from minor problems to complete absence) hearing and / or speech from birth or due to past diseases, injuries. The deaf teacher teaches the child sign and tactile language, develops residual hearing and skills necessary for better adaptation to environmental conditions. During operations on the ears, the deaf teacher is engaged in the postoperative rehabilitation of the child.
    • Tiflopedagogy. This specialist works with blind or visually impaired children. The task of the typhlopedagogue is to improve ( if possible) the residual function of vision, as well as the development of other skills that will help the child become a full-fledged person with an existing problem. In his work, the defectologist uses special technical devices, with the help of which manipulations are performed to correct vision.
    • speech therapy. A speech therapist works with those patients who have problems in general with speech or with the pronunciation of specific sounds. Children with such problems as stuttering, speech delay, dyslexia fall under the competence of a speech therapist ( reading difficulties), dysarthria ( slurred speech), aphasia ( loss of speech due to brain damage). Defectologist corrects existing shortcomings ( if possible), and in the complete absence of speech in the patient stimulates its development. He works not only on the formulation of speech, but also teaches the patient to use intonation correctly, answer questions logically, and make correct sentences.
    • Oligophrenopedagogy. A representative of this profession deals with children diagnosed with developmental delay, mental retardation ( mental retardation), autism ( mental disorder). He also works with patients who have not one but several mental, speech and/or hearing impairments. In addition, the oligophrenopedagogue provides assistance to children who do not suffer from any mental illness, but have difficulty adapting to the team. This correction specialist works on the development of intellectual skills ( if necessary), teaches the patient to express their emotions and desires ( especially important in cases where the patient has speech problems), helps to find a common language with peers.

    The work of a defectologist with children

    The nature of the defectologist's work with children largely depends on the direction in which he specializes. At the same time, there are general principles on which the correctional teacher relies in his practice, regardless of his specialization. So, a single goal for all defectologists is to motivate children to learn ( what is it in general education program, and separately with a defectologist). Many children with hearing, visual or intellectual disabilities lack the desire to learn ( for example, because of the clear difference between peer achievement and personal academic achievement). The task of the defectologist is to explain to the child the importance of learning and to do everything possible in order to stimulate interest and reduce the difficulties experienced by the baby.

    The teacher's work on correction begins with a survey of students in order to identify children with certain problems. Then the identification is carried out by appearance, by expression) defects and the subsequent grouping of children with similar disorders. Subsequently, the defectologist conducts both individual and group classes. The work is based on various modern methods, the choice of which depends on the type of deviations in students.

    All work with children carried out by a defectologist can be divided into several stages, the sequence of which is determined by the specialist himself.

    There are the following stages in the work of a defectologist with children:

    • Acquaintance with the surrounding world. This stage is necessary in order for the child to form the most complete perception of the reality around him. Such classes broaden children's horizons, teach them to be attentive and take responsibility for their actions ( for example, if you don’t use an umbrella in the rain, you will get wet).
    • Teaching mathematics. In such classes, children learn to distinguish the shapes and sizes of objects, their color, quantity and other characteristics. They compare and classify a variety of objects or events, establishing certain patterns, cause-and-effect relationships.
    • sensorimotor development. The basic element of such activities are various games aimed at improving fine motor skills ( fingers). Children perform different actions with their hands ( draw, sculpt, design), repeat the exercises for the hands and fingers after the teacher. Much attention is paid to the implementation of various actions ( brushing teeth, combing), the purpose of which is to maintain personal hygiene.
    • Game training. Often children with disabilities mental development do not have the skills of a team or any other game. In such classes, the defectologist organizes a variety of games, explaining to the children their rules and principles. Learning to play helps the child learn the world and find common ground with peers.
    In such classes, the child receives general knowledge, so most often they are held in a group way. In individual lessons, the defectologist works more thoroughly on the development and improvement of those skills and functions that are relevant for a particular case. So, if a child has completely lost hearing, there is no point in working to improve it. In this case, the correction specialist directs efforts to teach the child, for example, tactile communication. Also, in individual lessons, the knowledge gained in the course of group training is consolidated, it is stimulated cognitive activity (desire for learning), the missed material is processed.

    Of great importance in the professional activities of this specialist is counseling parents. The help of a defectologist is aimed at teaching adults how to create and maintain a healthy intra-family atmosphere. Often a defectologist conducts classes to which not only children, but also their parents are invited.

    What is the difference between a defectologist and a speech therapist?

    The difference between a speech therapist and a defectologist who specializes in working with children with speech defects lies in the target audience and the goals of the classes. So, if children without deviations in mental or physical development are sent to a speech therapist, then a defectologist works with patients who have certain disorders. The work of an ordinary speech therapist is to eliminate existing speech disorders ( incorrect pronunciation of sounds, words). The goal of the defectologist-speech therapist is to teach the child to express his thoughts and restore gaps in knowledge that provoke difficulties in communication. The following example clearly explains the difference between these specialists. So, a speech therapist's patient may be a child who incorrectly pronounces the word "box" due to the incorrect pronunciation of the sound r. A child is sent to a defectologist-speech therapist who not only cannot pronounce, but also uses the word “box” inappropriately because he does not know its meaning.

    Defectologist

    As mentioned above, a defectologist is not a doctor, since he does not have medical education. At the same time, such a specialist can work on the staff of a polyclinic, hospital or other medical institution, most often for children. The reason for visiting a defectologist may be suspicions of deviations in the mental or physical development of the child. This specialist will conduct a diagnostic test that will confirm or refute the assumption that the child is lagging behind.

    Diagnostics ( analyzes) defectologist

    The defectologist does not conduct or prescribe any laboratory tests ( type of blood or urine test). This specialist uses a diagnostic test that allows you to assess the level of development of the child as a whole, as well as its individual skills. To do this, the defectologist asks questions, asks to perform some actions, and also evaluates the appearance of the child. Sometimes he specifically makes positive or negative remarks in order to gauge the child's reaction to negativity or approval. Circumstances can also be artificially modeled to determine the child's attitude and behavior in difficult, atypical situations. For a more complete assessment, parents can be interviewed, as well as documents showing the child's progress at school or a preschool institution can be used. In some cases, a diagnostic card can be used, which is previously developed by a defectologist.

    The diagnostic card of a defectologist contains the following headings:
    • information about the child and parents ( age, last name / first name / patronymic and other information);
    • diseases of parents and close relatives, including those that are inherited;
    • birth data ( what pregnancy is in a row, were there any complications during the bearing or birth of a child, at what time was the baby born);
    • information about early development ( when the child began to independently hold his head, sit, walk);
    • How did language skills develop? when the first babble appeared, the first words, the first phrases);
    • illnesses and serious conditions transferred by the child;
    • whether the baby was engaged with other specialists, and what were the results;
    • whether the child expresses interest in the game, in learning.

    Reference ( conclusion) defectologist

    The conclusion of a defectologist is a documented verdict that this specialist makes after examining the child. It should be clarified that the defectologist does not make a conclusion about the presence of any specific mental or physical abnormalities, but only provides an assessment of certain skills of the child. In other words, this specialist does not make a diagnosis, but only describes the condition of the baby.
    The nature of the data that is indicated in the defectologist's certificate depends on the age and problem of the child. But there are also general characteristics that are indicated in all the conclusions that a defectologist makes.

    The defectologist's certificate contains the following information about the child:

    • how the child provides information about himself ( quickly or after several requests, in expanded form or says only the name);
    • the ability to make visual, tactile, verbal contact ( how quickly and naturally the child contacts with the environment, whether he is interested in this);
    • character general activities child ( whether there is motivation, stability and desire to engage in any type of activity for a long time);
    • Is the approach to gaming activity, to toys adequate ( does the child use toys for their intended purpose, does he understand the rules of the simplest games, is he interested in such activities);
    • how the child reacts to approval, praise, remark, own failures;
    • assessment of such children's qualities as attention, visual perception, memory, thinking;
    • does the child understand pictures / expressions with a hidden meaning, does it reveal meaningless / ridiculous plots;
    • how developed and coordinated is the motor activity of his hands;
    • how coordinated is the child's gait, movements of the whole body;
    • Are the learning skills appropriate? writing, reading a) program requirements and age;
    • whether the child distinguishes objects according to their color, size and other characteristics;
    • whether he is oriented in space and time.
    Before use, you should consult with a specialist.
