Abstract

The article deals with the problem of logic development in children with mental retardation in a comprehensive school, as the modern education system is designed to create conditions that meet the capabilities and needs of students with special educational needs. The development of thinking, including logical thinking, plays a special role in the senior preschool and school age. With the beginning of school, thinking becomes one of the key aspects among other cognitive processes. The lack of consistency of logical thinking leads to the fact that the knowledge acquired by the child turns out to be incomplete, which complicates the learning process and reduces its effectiveness. The greatest difficulties arise in children with mental retardation, who have a lag in visual-figurative and verbal-logical forms of thinking. The practical significance of our research lies in the fact that we have developed a set of joint classes for this category of children, aimed at teaching methods of logical thinking (analysis, comparison, classification, analogy, generalization, establishment of causal relationships), the development of memory, attention, fine motor skills of hands, interest in solving puzzles.
