METHODS OF CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF PRIMARY SCHOOL PUPILS DURING LESSONS OF MUSIC

Abstract

The article substantiates the classification of methods of creative development of primary school pupils during lessons of music.The methods are classified on the basis of the analysis of theoretical and methodological literature on a scientific problem (L. Horiunova, V. Hryhorieva, O. Lobova, L. Masol, H. Padalka, V. Rahozina, etc.), the results of experimental master's studies performed under the author's supervision, as well as generalization of his own pedagogical experience as a teacher of music in secondary comprehensive schools. The groups of methods in the classification correspond to the types of activities mentioned in the Typical Educational Programs 2018 (Primary Education) composed by two teams of authors under the supervision of O. Savchenko and R. Shiyan in order to achieve the goals and objectives of the New Ukrainian School.Classification includes five groups of methods of creative personality development: 1) musical-creative (rhythmic, melodic, form-forming, performing and creative tasks); 2) perceptive-creative (methods of stimulating creative perception of music, emotionally-based and musical-communicative situations, methods of observing music); 3) interpretive-creative (methods of presenting the results of music perception, artistic and creative tasks, methods of thinking about music, associative methods); 4) communicative-creative (language improvisation, interactive, dialogic, and autocommunicative); 5) scientific and creative methods (problem, heuristic, inventive, research). The article gives accurate examples for each group of methods (for example, inventive methods of focal objects, and various variants of morphological analysis). The author advocates the idea that a creative teacher is able to make any children’s activity during the lessons of music creative one.
