Understanding preschool child’s speech as a psycholingvistic phenomenon.

This article is devoted to theoretical aspects of the problem of the preschool child’s speech as a psycholinguistic phenomenon. Speaking in the article on speech and speech activity in general, we mean not only the development of the preschool child’s speech, but also the formation of speech activity and normative language proficiency in the productive activity of the child, where an important role plays the mental image as a structural component of the child's speech processes during the active speech; the presence of the world's linguistic picture of every senior preschool child. Work on mastering and comprehension of preschool child’s speech as a qualitative perception and understanding of what the child has mastered practically, his involvement in speech activity should be accomplished not only taking into account age characteristics, but also the individuality of each child, his interests, desires and preferences, etc. And absolutely definitely - it is impossible to accomplish individualization of children without individualization of adults (educators and parents). An important role in this process belongs to the artistic and speech activity of preschool children. Preschool child’s speech in psycholinguistics is represented by numerous concepts of both foreign and domestic psycholinguistics. In our opinion, the lack of a complete description of the problem with speech activity and child’s speech in the scientific literature to some extent complicates further understanding of the material on the theory and methodology of language learning and the development of the preschool child’s speech. Taking into account the complexity of linguistic concepts, different thoughts of teachers, psychologists, linguists and other scholars, generalizing them, students and experts need to be given a clear idea of the children’s perception of speech in modern psycholinguistics, which can be done during the study of the course, using the achievements of modern scientific doctrine of speech activity.

Key words: speech, speech activity, understanding, comprehension, text, preschool children.

Fundamentals of family socialization of the preschooler.

The article provides experimental analysis of features and psychological and pedagogical conditions of family socialization of a senior preschooler. The task is to investigate the peculiarity of the development of value orientations of older preschoolers in a family setting and to confirm practically the role of a close adult in the process of socialization of the child. In this research was used target observations, systems of developmental interactive methods, individual conversations, conversations with children, educators and parents. The analysis of the obtained data allowed us to form a generic characteristic of the children of the older group of preschool institution. To get a real picture of the nature and content of the child's internal family relationship with the adult, his or her role functions in family communication we used a homework questionnaire. It was conducted a survey for parents on domestic violence issues and a series of thematic consultations of "Child aggression: causes and consequences".

The process of socialization of the older preschooler is uneven, individual and requires careful psychological and pedagogical support. Educational influences of an adult should take place in a collaborative format and contribute to the creation of a child's own world that requires a change in the values of upbringing. Observations show that children transfer experience of co-working with adults in the family circle to the rules of life in the conditions of the children's collective, guided by the significant values of cohabitation, learned at home. Meeting the basic needs of the child in protection and care affect on their social and psychological maturity, forms an appropriate attitude in the child to society. Through indirect support, an adult should develop a preschooler experience of relationships. Focusing on an activity partner motivates the child to form an emotional-personal form of contact and cognitive cooperation. The culture of communication in the family is an indicator of its psychological climate, which is a key factor in shaping a child's ability to live in a social environment. The family is the social environment where a self-sufficient personality is emerging.

Key words: family socialization, parental responsibility, preschool childhood, subjectivity, subject-subject interaction.
