Interrelation of motor and communicative development of preschool children: problems and searches
The article describes the results of a theoretical study on the views of domestic and foreign scientists on the relationship between motor skills and communication of early and preschool children in ontogeny. The article notes that, given the existing physical inactivity, the pace and volume of children's communication slows down, and children's communicative activity decreases. The author draws attention to the fact that research evidence suggests that increased physical activity can cause changes in neural growth and synaptic transmission in brain areas associated with performance. It is noted that today the vast majority of studies are based on the denial of the modular concept and the autonomous development of personality components, but not on the affirmation of cognition and development of speech and language in interaction with the child's motor activity. The purpose of the study is to analyse and summarise the results of empirical research based on the screening of motor and communication development of children from birth to 6 years. Research methods: analysis and synthesis of scientific and methodological literature, systematic analysis method, historical and logical method, descriptive method, comparative method. The results of the study: based on the results of a systematic review and systematic analysis, the article presents the conclusions that the whole complex of children's movements, which ensures their vital activity, affects the acquisition of language and communicative development of speech; physical development affects both the formation and further ontogeny of communication. Conclusions. Thus, modern researches on the problems of interconnected development of movements, speech and communication of children of early and preschool age are a certain addition, expansion and deepening of the study of this interdisciplinary phenomenon in both domestic and foreign studies. The relationship between movement and communication in the senior preschool age requires a separate study.
