CONNECTED SPEECH IN CHILDREN WITH OHP)
Explanatory note.
One of the directions in working with children with general speech underdevelopment is the development of coherent speech. Coherent speech is understood as a chain of logically combined sentences containing a complete thought / story /. this work- This is the result of the accumulated experience in the development of children with OHP the ability to compose descriptive stories. It was found that it is easier for children with OHP to compose descriptive stories based on the visual plan of the statement. Such a plan could be a story outline. The work presents 18 schemes of descriptive stories, which are selected according to the main lexical topics: "Fruits", "Vegetables", "Autumn", etc. Larger story layouts are designed for subgroup lessons... It is advisable to use small circuits for individual work with child. Each child independently chooses which subject he will talk about according to the scheme. Next, the child paints his story scheme and compiles a story-description about an object, a natural phenomenon based on it. The work also presents questions to the story scheme and an example story to the submitted scheme.

Carrots are one of the most important root crops for humans grown in areas with temperate climate... The vegetable cultivated today was derived from wild varieties whose roots were not orange at all. As the research of scientists shows, carrots were originally purple or yellow.
Today it is difficult to judge the origin and evolutionary paths of the existing 80 species of cultivated carrots. But archaeologists find carrot seeds during excavations along the coast. Mediterranean Sea, in North Africa, in the Asian region and European countries with a temperate climate.
Wild species, most likely, were originally a source of greenery for humans, not juicy root crops. Perhaps carrots were used and how.
At the same time, in Iran and Europe, the cultural layers, where evidence of the growth of carrots is found, are about 5 thousand years old. The fossil pollen of plants of the Apiaceae family belonging to the Eocene period is 55 to 34 million years old, which indicates the antiquity of the genus.
Ancestors of modern carrot varieties
Today, the existence of two original types of cultivated carrots has been confirmed. Oriental or Asian carrots historically have a purple color due to the anthocyanin pigment. And in some, the color is so intense that they began to talk about black carrots.
Oriental-type feathery leaves have a silvery shade and are noticeably pubescent. Such carrots are most widespread in Afghanistan, in the Himalayas and the Hindu Kush mountains, and in Iran, India and some regions of Russia. In the same territories, yellow carrots are also found, which in the wild are harder than dark-colored and have a pronounced pungent taste.
The beginning of the cultivation of purple carrots was probably in the 10th century. Three centuries later, purple roots appeared in the Mediterranean, and a little later they began to be grown in China and Japan. Eastern yellow and purple carrots are still grown in Asia today, used to make a strong alcoholic drink, but they are inferior in popularity and distribution. western varieties with orange roots.
The modern Western type of carrot is colored by carotene, so the roots can be red, orange, yellow, or off-white.
Most likely, such varieties were the result of hybridization and crossing of plants of the oriental type with wild subspecies of Mediterranean yellow carrots. Root crops consumed by Europeans, up to the 17th century, were thin, highly branched and not juicy at all.
The history of carrots in ancient times
Archaeological evidence of wild carrot consumption has been found in camps ancient man in Switzerland.
Temple paintings in Egyptian Luxor dating from the second millennium BC depict purple roots. And in the papyri found in one of the burials of the pharaoh, it is said about the treatment with the seeds of carrots or a plant similar to it. But neither archaeologists nor paleobotanists have yet been able to confirm the assumptions of Egyptologists about the distribution of purple carrots in the Nile Valley. Perhaps the ancient Egyptians were familiar with other members of the Apiaceae family, such as anise or coriander.
Fossilized carrot seeds, at least five thousand years old, have been found in the highlands of Iran and Afghanistan.
Many varieties of various colors have been found in Asia, and there is evidence of the use of wild carrots during the Hellenic period in Greece. Basically, the seeds of carrots and their rhizomes were used in medicinal purposes... For example, in the Ardennes during the time of Ancient Rome, carrots served as an aphrodisiac, and the Pontic king Mithridates VI believed that carrots could neutralize poisons.
Dioscorides, who served as a physician in the Roman army, in his work De Materia Medica during his campaigns described and sketched more than 600 species medicinal plants... A Byzantine edition of the work, dating back to 512, shows the reader the appearance of an orange carrot.
Documented history of carrots and their introduction into cultivation
White carrot riddle and classification issues
In ancient Rome and Greece, carrots were called differently, which led to conflicting interpretations. In particular, under the name Pastinaca, both almost white carrots and light roots of the parsnip, which was extremely popular at that time, could be hidden.
Galen suggested giving the carrot the name Daucus, separating it from its related species. It happened in the second century new era... In the same years, the Roman scientist Athenaeus proposed the name Carota, and the same root vegetable is called in the culinary book Apicius Czclius, dating back to 230.
However, with the fall of Rome, references to carrots from European written sources completely disappear. And the confusion in the identification of plants close in species and kinship continued until the Middle Ages, when purple and yellow roots were again brought to Europe from Asia.
Charlemagne issued a decree on the universal veneration of carrots and its recognition as the most valuable plant, and thanks to the delicate leaves and flower-umbrellas in history, carrots have become known as "Queen Anne's lace".
Today, the names of all varieties, from white root crops to black carrots, are subject to Linnaeus's classification, which he developed in 1753.
Start of carrot breeding
Purposeful selection of the species began relatively recently. The description of the first cultivar dates back to 1721 and was carried out by Dutch botanists. It was easy to get carrots to produce sweeter and larger rhizomes. In order for the root crop to become noticeably straighter, sweeter and juicier, the plant only needed good care and the cultivation of several generations in favorable conditions.
Historians were surprised that less than three centuries passed from the moment the yellow and red carrots appeared in the Netherlands to their spread as a vegetable species, as if the plant itself wanted to be cultivated.
The most famous varieties, Nantes and Chantanne, are indebted to the French gardener-ascetic Louis de Villemorin, who in the 19th century laid the foundations of modern plant growing and in 1856 published a description of the varieties that are still in demand today.
Formation of carrot color
Oriental yellow varieties became the basis for obtaining both orange and white carrots. This conclusion, after analyzing the gene pool of plants, was made by geneticists quite recently, but both yellow and red carrots continue to be cultivated in the world. And a variety of purple carrots with a particularly intense dark color is called black. So what is the reason for such a variety of colors?
Carrot root coloration is the result of various carotenoid-related pigments.
In the process of selection, the carrots have become larger and more juicy. It has lost some of its essential oils, but has acquired other health benefits, depending on the color and its intensity.

Primarily with rosewood color. The advantage of this combination is the contrast in brightness. Rosewood is a deep purple shade close to reddish brown. It is red that these two colors have in common. Rosewood is able to favorably emphasize the main advantages of carrot. At the same time, it itself goes into the shadows. However, due to its brightness orange tint does not completely absorb everything.
Carrot also goes well with a gray-hyacinth tone. It's all about contrast, not only in brightness, but also in color temperature. Blue shades are the coldest in relation to hot orange. Therefore, each color in such a neighborhood looks much more expressive. The contrast in brightness in this case works in exactly the same way as in combination with rosewood... Pale yellow or black brown is a great addition to this case.
Many people, tired of plain and dull colors, try to surround themselves with various bright things. Carrot color allows you to change this very dullness. Paired with blue and brown tones, it looks very impressive.

Where and when did carrots appear
Carrot history
The homeland of carrots is Afghanistan. In ancient times, the color of carrots was very diverse: red, white, purple, yellow. V Ancient Greece and in Rome, carrots were held in high esteem. The Greeks gave it the name "carrying love", believing that it softens human hearts and teaches people to be loving and patient.
In India, Japan and China, carrots have been cultivated as a garden plant since the 13th century. The usual orange carrot appeared only in the 16th century. thanks to the efforts of Dutch breeders who have developed the new kind in honor of the Dutch royal family.
The orange carrot appeared in England during the time of Elizabeth I.
Cultivated plant carrot
After some time, this culture has become one of the most consumed vegetables. Secular ladies used it to make accessories for decorating their hats and dresses.
Carrots were brought to North America in 1607, and in 1814, Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States, who was fond of plant breeding, bred 18 varieties of carrots.
❧ In medieval Germany, there was a belief that a bowl of steamed carrots should be taken to the forest. Supposedly, the gnomes were very fond of this dish and instead of carrots they left an ingot of gold.
❧ At the site of the excavation of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, archaeologists have found images of carrot bunches on the walls of houses. And in ancient buildings near Bern in Switzerland, they found fossilized remains of carrots, it is assumed that they had lain there for about 3 ~ 4 thousand years.
In Russia carrots have been cultivated since time immemorial. The ancient Slavs brought carrots as a gift to the deceased. Carrots were put into the boat with the deceased, then the boat was set on fire. It was believed that carrots would serve as food for the deceased in the next world.

Orange color this vegetable is given by the enzyme beta-carotene, which is processed in our body and turns into vitamin A, which is extremely beneficial for vision.

And now I will tell you a story about the largest carrot in the world. You, of course, have already heard about her more than once, but, in my opinion, it was all the same.
Once a peasant planted a carrot in his garden and began to look after it: he watered it, pulled out the weeds - in a word, he did everything as it should be. When the time came, he began to harvest - pulling carrots out of the ground. And suddenly he came across some particularly large carrot. He pulls it, pulls it, but cannot pull it out. He tries this and that, but he cannot! Finally, he could not resist, called his wife:
- Giuseppina!
- What happened, Oreste?
- Come here! Such a carrot is caught ... Wouldn't want to get out of the ground for anything! Go take a look ...
- Yves, really, what a tremendous one!
- Let's do this: I'll pull the carrots, and you pull my jacket. Are you ready? Have taken! More more! Pull!
“I’d better pull your hand, or the jacket will break.”
- Come on by the hand. Well, stronger! No, I can't do it! Call your son, otherwise I’m all exhausted ...
- Romeo! Romeo! - calls Giuseppina.
- What happened, Mom?
- Come here! Yes, hurry up!
- But I'm doing my homework.
- Do it later, but now help! Look, this carrot doesn't want to get out of the ground. I will pull my father by one hand, and you by the other, and he himself will pull the carrot. Maybe we can pull it out ...
Oreste spat on his palms, rubbed his hands, gathered his strength.
- Are you ready? One or two! Have taken! Pull! Well, more! More! No, nothing works ...
“It must be the biggest carrot in the world,” decided Giuseppina.
- We must call grandfather for help! Romeo suggested.
- Well, call me! - agreed the father. - I can't do it alone.
- Grandfather! Grandfather! Come here! Hurry up!
- I'm in a hurry, dear, I'm in a hurry! ... But it's not easy for me ... In your years I also ran fast, but now ... What happened?
Grandpa came running out of breath and already tired.
“Here we have the largest carrot in the world,” Romeo explained. - The three of us can't pull it out. Can you help?
- How not to help, dear!
“Let's do it,” Romeo said. - You pull me, my mom and I will pull dad, and he is a carrot ... If we don't pull this time too ...
- Okay, - agreed grandfather, - just wait ...
- Yes, I'll put the phone aside. You can't do two things at once. You have to either smoke or work, right?
- Well, we started! - said Oreste. - Are you all ready? One or two! Have taken! Again! Again! Have taken!
- Oh, help!
- What happened, grandfather?
- Do not you see - fell! Slipped and fell. And besides, right on the phone ...
The poor old man even burned his pants.
- No, nothing will come of it, - decided Oreste. - Romeo, run to Andrea and call him for help.
“Then let him come with his wife and son — the whole family,” Romeo suggested.
“And that’s true,” the father agreed. - Wow, what carrots! ... About such you can report to the newspaper.
- Maybe we will call TV? - suggested Giuseppina. But no one supported her.
“Television…” grumbled Oreste. - We'd better call the neighbors and get her out first ...
In short, Andrea came, his wife came, their son came, however, still quite small - a five-year-old boy, so he had little strength ...
Meanwhile, the whole village had already heard about the big carrot. Joking and talking, people reached out to the garden.
- Yes, this is not a carrot at all, - someone said, - you have a whale sitting here!
- Whales are swimming in the sea!
- Not all! I saw one at the fair ...
- And I saw in the book ...
People encouraged each other:
- Well, try it too, Girolamo - you are a strong man!
- I don't like carrots! I prefer potatoes.
- And I - meatballs!
They pull and pull with jokes and jokes, but they cannot pull. The sun is already going down ...
First end
And you can't get the carrot out!
The whole village came to help, not to pull out!
Gathered people from neighboring villages - not in any!
People came from distant villages, but the carrot was not in place.
Eventually, it was discovered that a large carrot had sprouted through the entire Earth, and on the opposite side of the Earth it is pulled by another peasant, and the whole village also helps him. So it turned out like a tug-of-war, and apparently there will never be an end to it.
Second end
The sun is already leaning towards sunset, and they are all pulling and pulling. Finally pulled out! Only not a carrot at all, but a pumpkin. And in it are seven gnome shoemakers sitting and sewing shoes.
- What is it? - the gnomes got angry. - Why on earth are you taking our house and our workshop away from us ?! Well, put the pumpkin back in the ground!
The people got scared and ran away. Everyone ran away except for grandfather. He asked the dwarfs:
- Do you have any matches? My pipe went out. Grandfather made friends with gnomes.
- I would love to, - said the grandfather, - moved to live with you in your pumpkin. Will there be room for me too?
Romeo heard this and shouted from afar:
- If you go there, grandfather, then I want! And Giuseppina cried out:
- Romeo, son, I'm after you!
And Oreste shouted:
- Giuseppina, what about me without you ?!
The dwarfs got angry and hid underground with their pumpkin.

There is no such thing that people would not be able to do if they take it all together and work in a friendly and cheerful manner.
