A rebus - is a device that uses pictures

to represent words or parts of words.

Rebuses are a type of puzzle in which a word is encrypted in the image.

Even in Ancient times, rebuses were used to convey the names of cities

on Greek and Roman coins, or to indicate family surnames

in medieval heraldry, as well as as facilitating the perception of symbols in architecture.

Unlike a simple riddle, where the basis is a verbal description,

The rebus also develops logical imaginative thinking,

teaches you to perceive graphic images in a non-standard way,

and also trains visual memory and spelling.

The commas in front of the picture indicate how many letters need to be removed from the beginning of the hidden word,

The commas at the end of the picture indicate how many letters need to be removed from the end of the word.

If a letter is crossed out, it must be removed from the word,

If there is an equal sign, it means one letter needs to be replaced by another.

A rebus is an image of a word or sentence using a combination of numbers, letters, signs, pictures, etc.

1. Cipher “word+word”, “object+object” (arm-chair)

2. If a comma is given to the left of the picture or at the top, this means that the first letter in the word is excluded.

If to the right of the picture or below, then the last one. (fox-ox, bear-ear)

If there are 2 commas, we exclude 2 letters accordingly.

3. If 2 objects (letters) are drawn one inside the other, then when deciphering the word

add the preposition in: w-in-d, f-in-e.

4. Often items are encrypted this way:

object + part of a word and vice versa - part of a word + object (hat-e, man-y)

5. If there is a letter above the picture, it must be included in the word so that

to make one more word: coat-coast, pot-plot

6. If an object is drawn and a crossed out letter is written next to it,

This means we exclude this letter when decoding the word.

If another letter is written above the crossed out one, then you need to replace the crossed out letter with it.

Introduction

In literacy lessons, Russian language lessons and in entertainment magazines, word games - puzzles - are often found. Puzzles are interesting and useful to solve. They develop imaginative thinking, logic, and help memorize the spelling of dictionary (unverifiable) words in the Russian language. In English lessons you also need to memorize words. I would like this activity to become more interesting and easier.

Purpose Our job is to compile puzzles of English words used in primary school.
We have supplied the following tasks:

· learn the history of puzzles;

· find out which parts can be used to make puzzles, and what rules exist for composing them;

· select English words and compose puzzles for them, using various elements and composition rules;

· prepare a visual aid in the form of puzzles of English words for elementary school.

To achieve our goals, we used the following research methods:

· study of articles;

· analysis and comparison of words;

We were able to use most of the techniques we learned (See Appendix), but we were not able to use the rule of relative arrangement of elements, since in English most nouns are used with an article (For example: on the table); It was also not possible to create a rebus with a repeating element. We included all the compiled puzzles in the presentation “Rebuses of English words” and made a collection in printed form.

Conclusion

The goal of our work was achieved: we managed to compose puzzles of English words, using the rules for composing puzzles of Russian words.

The hypothesis was partially confirmed: we were able to apply most of the techniques in practice, but we were not able to apply all the techniques known to us.

The work of composing puzzles is no less exciting and useful than solving them

We hope that the result of our work - the collection “Riddles of English Words” will be useful and interesting for children who are learning English.

Application

Students, as a rule, treat learning vocabulary as a boring, monotonous, time-consuming activity. This encourages creative teachers to resort to unconventional methods of work. One of them is the use of puzzles at the stage of consolidating previously learned lexical units. A rebus is usually called an image of a word or sentence (coding of words, phrases) using a combination of drawings (pictures), letters, numbers, signs.

Usually, rebuses encode nouns in the nominative case, but you can include words of any part of speech - numerals, verbs, adjectives, pronouns, adverbs, prepositions (see examples in the Appendix).

The most common principles for encoding words are the following:

1. Word + word (object + object): basket + ball, arm + chair, bed + room, book + shelf.

Picture 1	Figure 2

Figure 3

2. Subject + part of a word or part of a word + subject: t + hat = that, o + pen = open, y + ear = year.

Figure 4	Figure 5	Figure 6

Figure 7	Figure 8	Figure 9

3. Letters are excluded from the name of the depicted object using a comma(s) - if the comma is to the left of the picture, then the first letter (or several letters, if there are 2-3 commas) in the word must be excluded; if to the right of the picture, then the last(s) )), or other letters are added to replace the crossed out ones: sheep'' = she, 'cup = up, 'house''+ t = out, y +'car + d = yard, w +'nine'+ ten'+ r = winter.

Figure 14	Figure 15	Figure 16

4. Letters (letter combinations, objects), depicted one on top of the other (above it, below it), one in the other, next to each other (one letter is “leaned” against the other or they seem to be holding hands), any letter “goes” towards another (or others), then when reading, accordingly, the prepositions 'on', 'under', 'up', 'in', 'at', 'with', 'to' are added: e. g. k-in-d = kind, M-on-day = Monday, to-w-n = town, sk-at-e = skate, am-on-g = among, s-up-per = supper.

5. Numbers are written above the picture (or next to the image), then the letters are read in the order indicated by the numbers: eat (3,1,2) = tea, ear (2,3,1) = are, Kate (3, 2,1,4) = take, net (3,2,1) = ten.

6. The crossed out letter is excluded when decoding the word or replaced with another: monkey = money, coat = cat, coast = coat, bag (a = i) = big, hat (t=m) = ham, lake (l = m) = make.

Sometimes students try to create their own puzzles (See Appendix). Quantitative analysis shows that of the 120 presented puzzles, the largest group consists of nouns (63), followed by verbs (20), adjectives and adverbs (16), prepositions (9), numerals (6), pronouns (6).

The use of puzzles enlivens the work of students in an English lesson, increases their performance and allows them to intensify the learning process, cultivates students' interest in the subject and has a positive effect on the emotional state of schoolchildren. By solving ready-made puzzles and composing their own, students develop ingenuity, imagination, intuition, strengthen their memory, firmly assimilating the lexical material being studied. This is one of the techniques of pedagogical skill that allows you to intensify children’s desire to learn.

Children learning English can be quite bored in lessons where there are no game elements. And if there is no interest in classes, then you should not expect good results. A teacher must be able to interest his students, whether in school or individual tutoring. Therefore, it is important to include all kinds of crosswords, riddles, charades, puzzles and puzzles in English for children in the learning process.

One of the most common ways to engage a child with lessons is through rebuses. They are great for repeating and reinforcing previously learned material, new vocabulary, and spelling rules. Their essence is that with the help of pictures, special, previously agreed upon symbolic designations, a word, and sometimes entire sentences, are encoded.

The most commonly used words for encryption are nouns in the nominative case. But if you wish, you can think of other parts of speech: verbs, adverbs, adjectives.

It is noteworthy that Russian-speaking children require puzzles that are completely different from those used for little English people. This is explained by the fact that if our puzzles are mostly based on clear rules, then in England the boundaries are somewhat blurred, the emphasis is on similar pronunciation of different syllables.

Below you will find English puzzles in pictures with answers. Here are the symbols:

1.F = T, this means that the letter in the pictured word is replaced by another.

For example: if the picture shows a cat and the value is C = H, then instead of cat, we get hat.

2. “,” - one such sign removes one letter, respectively, if there is “,”, then we exclude two letters. From which edge of the word we remove depends on whether the commas are at the beginning or at the end of the word.

3. A picture with the numbers 1.5 or another combination. It means that from the depicted word we take only those letters that are in the designated positions, that is, the first and fifth.

For example: There is a picture of a giraffe, and next to the picture there are numbers 2, 6, which means that for decoding we will take only i, f.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated here. You just need to practice a little. Such tasks can be given to the child as homework, instead of boring memorization. They will be especially interesting for primary school students.
