Spatial thinking is necessary for every person: after all, we live in a three-dimensional dimension. And it allows you to navigate the terrain well, remember the route, present the shape of objects. How to succeed in the development of spatial thinking?
Instruction manual
one
From the very beginning of his development, a person learns to operate in the consciousness of objects of the material world. The child climbs into boxes and cabinets, plays with puddles of water on the street, bathes toys in the bath. So the human brain gets acquainted with the concepts of width, length and height. In the future, to develop spatial thinking, such objects at school as geometry, drawing, and construction help to develop. The ability to visualize the volume of objects, shape, size is necessary for the normal functioning of the brain.

To add creativity to your life, develop your imagination. Try to imagine the geometric shapes: cube, tetrahedron, cone. In the mind, rotate them in different directions, imagine how objects look from different sides. Try figuratively biting off a small piece from the figures. What will change? Imagine that a person sitting next to him has increased dramatically in size. You can see the cells of his body and what they are made of. You are allowed to travel around a person, look into all the hidden corners of his body, penetrate into the nostrils. Imagine what you can see there. An inventor or a person of a creative mind can create new spatial images in their imagination that did not exist before. This is not only a fantasy work, but also the ability to compose and combine various forms and figures.

In order to better navigate in space and develop memory, having come home after a walk, draw a route on paper. Reproduce in memory all the guests sitting at the table at the last celebration. What were they wearing? What hairstyles did women have? How many details can you recall?

Spatial thinking helps us to imagine and lose in our minds the correct solution to a volumetric problem. You can mentally arrange furniture in the apartment, repaint objects in different colors and look for the most suitable option for the decor of a room or bedroom. Inspect the room you are in. Now get out of it and sketch the layout and arrangement of the interior. What did you remember? How many items can you keep in mind? Remember the colors, shapes and details.
