CORRECTIONAL AND DEVELOPMENTAL POTENTIAL OF SENSORY INTEGRATION MEANS IN WORK ON SPEECH ACTIVATION OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN
SUMMARY:
The study is dedicated to analyzing the specifics of speech activation in preschool children through the engagement of sensory experience. The work is based on the principle of forming neural connections through sensory integration, which ensures the improvement of coordination, attention concentration, and speech activity. Methods employed include: Zaicev’s method (for developing reading skills through visual and auditory stimuli, such as cubes and charts); Chebotaryova’s method; the Montessori method; Glenn Doman’s system (chosen to stimulate visual memory and rapidly expand vocabulary); methods of play-based speech therapy; and the system of speech-therapeutic sensory integration. The study deepens scientific understanding of the role of sensory stimuli in the corrective process and reveals the mechanisms linking the quality of sensory information processing with the development of speech functions. Contemporary speech therapy approaches to the use of multisensory influence are systematized. The practical significance lies in the development and testing of a set of exercises based on tactile, vestibular, proprioceptive, and visual-auditory stimuli. The proposed toolkit is adapted for implementation in inclusive environments and for corrective and developmental work in preschool educational institutions.
