Abstract

In Russian psychology main components of the role-playing game are described: an imaginary situation, role, playing action, usage of the substitute objects. Since it is a leading activity of the preschoolers, the presence of the same components is needed for didactic games (especially when children are 3–5 years old). Didactic games should become role-playing. For many preschool children problems in reading are not associated with laziness or intellectual deficits – is the inability to “jump” through the intermediate links of the learning process. The task of the teacher in this regard is to build the process of learning to read in a creative way: to find solutions for each pedagogical task in a role-playing didactic game which turns learning into a joyful fascinating process.
