Progress of the competition

A student reads a poem about autumn.

Lingonberries are ripening,
The days have become colder,
And from the bird's cry
My heart became sadder.
Flocks of birds fly away
Away, beyond the blue sea.
All the trees are shining
In a multi-colored dress.
The sun laughs less often
There is no incense in the flowers.
Autumn will wake up soon
And he will cry sleepily.
K. Balmont

RIDDLE is a tricky question. The main purpose of a riddle is that it develops intuition and intelligence in a person.

According to the conviction of the primitive hunter, cattle breeder, plowman, in the field, in the forest, on the water, in the home - everywhere and everywhere, a person constantly encounters a hostile conscious force that sends failure, fire, disease. This force must be outwitted, and this requires secret, conditional speech. Without knowledge of this conventional speech, the young man could not become an equal member of his clan. Along with others, tests were arranged for the young men in his wisdom

Later, peasant customs prescribed riddles to be made at certain times and under certain circumstances. In folk wedding customs, until the 19th century, telling riddles was a mandatory part of the wedding ceremony.

Autumn in the garden
She came to us
Red torch
I lit it.
There are blackbirds here
Starlings scurry about
And, noisily, they peck at him. (Rowan)

Nobody's scared
And everything is shaking. (Aspen)

They scattered along the edge of the forest
Girlfriends in white dresses. (Birches)

It's not even a mystery
Let's say right away
If only someone would say -
There are acorns on it! (Oak)

Teacher: Now, guys, find the leaves of those trees whose names you guessed. (Leaves with riddles are hung around the classroom). Look what's on the other side of the sheet. Solve these riddles.

Flying, growling,
Breaks branches
Dust rises
Can you hear him
But you don’t see him. (Wind)

They often call me
Waiting
And I will come - from me
They take cover. (Rain)

Gray-haired grandfather at the gate
Everyone's eyes were covered. (Fog)

So that autumn doesn't get wet,
Not soggy from water,
He turned puddles into glass,
Made the gardens snowy. (Freezing)

The star spun
There's a little in the air
Sat down and melted
On my palm. (Snowflake)

Transparent like glass
You can't put it in the window.
Not snow and not ice,
And with silver he will remove the trees. (Frost)

Above me, above you
A bag of water flew by
Ran into a distant forest,
He lost weight and disappeared. (Cloud)

Fluffy cotton wool
Floating somewhere.
The lower the wool,
The closer the rain comes. (Clouds)

Wanders alone
Fiery eye.
Everywhere it happens
The look warms you. (Sun)

In the morning the beads sparkled,
They covered the grass everywhere.
And we went to look for them during the day,
We search and search, but we won’t find it. (Dew)

There's a commotion in the yard:
Peas are falling from the sky.
Nina ate six peas
She now has a sore throat. (hail)

The cold garden is empty,
Cobwebs fly into the distance,
And to the southern edge of the earth
The cranes arrived.
School doors opened.
What month has it come to us? (September)

You can solve fascinating puzzles with your children puzzles about autumn. Each rebus contains encrypted names of objects and various natural phenomena using letters, pictures, numbers and symbols. Their main feature is that they can only be observed in the autumn months. You just have to look out the window, go outside for a walk, and you will definitely see these encrypted words with your own eyes.

Puzzles about autumn with answers- these are simple riddles, puzzles, because they are aimed at children under 8-9 years old, who will be interested in remembering what changes occur in nature with the arrival of the first autumn month.

For example, you see a rebus with an “8” drawn on it, preceded by one comma. Under “8” it says “M=N”. This means that the course of your thoughts should go as follows: “8” is the word “eight”, the comma indicates that the first letter of the word should not be taken into account, that is, you are left with the word “eight”. M=N indicates that in the word you need to replace the letter “M” with the letter “N”, therefore, you get the correct answer to the rebus - “autumn”. Also in this rebus, 5=H could be indicated, that is, the fifth letter in the word “eight” should be replaced with “H”.

Since it often rains in the fall, a rainy theme will be relevant for children's puzzles. For example, the following puzzles: the picture shows the “moon”, under it it says “N=F”. So, you get the word “puddle”. Keep in mind that if the moon is not full, then the word may be encrypted behind the picture “month”.

If you like funny riddles about an umbrella, then pay attention to this rebus - it is quite unusual in its image. The picture at the beginning shows the letter “Z”, followed by the image of a “nose”, under which there are two numbers “2, 1”, which means that first you need to take the second letter, and then the first: you will get “he” " The letter “C” from the word “nose” is dropped, as the comma at the end of the image tells you. Next in the picture there is a “whale”, under it there is a number sequence “3, 2, 1” - which means the word “tick” is obtained. And the whole word is “umbrella”.

Everyone knows that autumn is mushroom time, so you can not only learn, but also solve puzzles about autumn for schoolchildren about mushrooms. In the picture at the beginning there is a large letter “G”, then a “fish” is depicted, under the picture there is a clarification that “Y=I”, that is, the letter “Y” in the word “fish” is replaced by the letter “I”. After the picture there is a comma, which means that you should not take into account the last letter in the word “fish” when solving the rebus. Thus, the word “fish” is transformed into the word “rib”, a capital “G” is added to this part and the word “mushroom” is obtained, which is the answer to the rebus.

Answer:
To a stream, pockmarked and motley,
A leaf flies after a leaf,

Answer:
The mournful wind drives
The clouds are flocking to the edge of heaven.

Answer:
Twilight falls over everything,
Hitting from all sides,
Before the rain
The mournful wind drives
The clouds are flocking to the edge of heaven.
The broken spruce groans,
The dark forest whispers dully.
To a stream, pockmarked and motley,
A leaf flies after a leaf,
And a stream, dry and sharp;
It's getting cold.
Twilight falls over everything,
Hitting from all sides,
Spinning in the air screaming
A flock of jackdaws and crows...
(N. Nekrasov)
