Abstract
The article systematized some theoretical concepts related to creativity as process and activity.
 The researcher analyzed the expected results from the education in mathematics in grade 3 and particularly from competency Cluster “Geometry figures and bodies” included in the educational program approved by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Bulgaria. A new methodology system of work was developed and tested. The system includes tasks of a type that will facilitate the students to perform creative activities. Some of these tasks are presented in the research work.
 Results of the empiric study have been processed using mathematics-statistics methods and are graphically presented. The results demonstrated that the students successfully performed creative activities during the process of acquiring geometry knowledge. 
 The problem-productive strategy of education applied during education in mathematics for grade 3 students provoked them to perform creativity activity and created preconditions for development in the students of knowledge, skills, competences, and competencies related to geometry figures.
Highlights
Creativity is a process that is changing the present life of humanity and is developing its future
The results demonstrated that the students successfully performed creative activities during the process of acquiring geometry knowledge
The new methodology system of work was applied in the course of education in mathematics for grades 1-4 during the period between 2017 and 2021 in four schools in the Town of Stara Zagora, Bulgaria
Summary
Creativity is a process that is changing the present life of humanity and is developing its future. Everything created in science, art, and manufacturing, is a result of individual and collective creative efforts of famous and unknown inventors. Creative work is not an act done by people devoted to science and art. Creativity is every human activity where a person combines, changes, or creates something new. The aim of the research is to develop and test a new methodology system of work with mathematical tasks from geometry. The system of work contains tasks that provide conditions for creative work. The research work assesses the contribution of the methodology system for the development of grade 3 students’ knowledge and skills
