Развитие эстетических способностей учащихся начальной школы в процессе художественного образования

In the XXI century, more and more teachers are turning their attention to the possibilities of creative develop-ment of children, which are provided by visual activities. This educational aspect is especially important for primary school students, since during the designated period the child is at the stage of intellectual and physio-logical development that allows him to fully immerse himself in the world of art and express himself in it. Crea-tive activity contributes to improving the effectiveness of the educational process in primary school through the development of fine motor skills of the child, his imagination, spatial thinking. In addition, an art lesson is an important way of aesthetic education in elementary school. At the same time, it is important for the teacher to transform the pupil from an outside observer into an active participant of the creative process. The article identi-fies some practical problems that a teacher faces in the process of educating aesthetic abilities in the condi-tions of the modern educational situation. It is noted that their solution has a pronounced relevance for the prac-tice of art education. Strategies for educating the aesthetic abilities of primary school students based on tradi-tional and innovative concepts of art teaching are proposed.

ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ОРГАНІЗАЦІЇ ДИФЕРЕНЦІЙОВАНОГО НАВЧАННЯ В ПОЧАТКОВІЙ ШКОЛІ НОВОЇ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ШКОЛИ

The article reveals the peculiarities of the implementation of differentiated education in the educational process of primary school. It is noted that each child is a unique individual with unique natural gifts, psychological and physical capabilities, different levels of adaptation to learning. The refore, it is necessary to introduce differentiated learning into the educational process, which we consider as a specially organized educational activity of younger schoolchildren, in the process of which, with the help of taking into account individual characteristics, the selection of forms, techniques and means of learning, there is a direction towards the optimal intellectual development of each child in accordance with his typological characteristics. In order to determine the typification of primary education students, we analyzed the types of learning abilities of students, used the level assessment of educational achievements of primary education students and the typology developed by V.O. Sukhomlynskyi about the division of schoolchildren into groups and the choice of methods of managing their educational process, and used observation of students' educational activities, diagnostic methods, questionnaires, test tasks, and creative tasks. The stages of the implementation of differentiated education in the educational process of primary school are specified, which correspond to the stages of lesson organization and include checking the self-training of students of primary education, preparing them to learn new knowledge during the lesson, initial verification of awareness and understanding of new material, consolidation, generalization and systematization knowledge, instruction on self-training tasks. Attention is drawn to the fact that the use of differentiated education is worthwhile not only during the lessons in primary classes, but also in the process of self-training of students at home. The directions of differentiation of the learning process of third-grade students of the New Ukrainian School have been determined. Current techniques for organizing differentiated education in the third grade of the New Ukrainian School have been selected. Pedagogical conditions for the effective implementation of differentiated education in the educational process of primary school are analyzed.

Музична терапія як метод навчання та розвитку молодших школярів за умов воєнного стану

The article discusses the ways of introducing methods of music therapy into the educational process of primary school. The essence and role of mu­sic therapy as an innovative health-saving technology for working with younger schoolchildren are defined. The article states that war, as the strongest stress factor, poses a real threat to the psychological and physical health of children. Psychological trauma caused by adverse en­vironmental factors can nega­tively affect the reactions and intellectual development of children, lead to undesirable behavior, emotional insta­bility, and depres­sion. In the conditions of martial law, the school should become the re­source place where the care of the child is based in the context of helping him adapt to the circumstances in which he or she finds himself. Today's challenges require improving the edu­cation and development of younger students through the use of health-saving ap­proaches and methods. It has been established that music therapy, being a component of psy­cho­logi­cal, pedagogical and psychotherapeutic methods, contributes to the preser­vation of mental health and the prevention of emotional disor­ders. It has a positive effect on a person's mood, on functional activity and perfor­mance, on his entire spiritual world. A definition of the concept of «music therapy» has been proposed, taking into account different scientific views. The article presents a classifica­tion of methods of modern music therapy in relation to the patient's ac­tivity or type of training. It has been established that the methods of mu­sic therapy can be integrated into pedagogical concepts and actions containing musi­cal, psycho­logical and social processes of learning and development, since it opens up opportunities to take care of the child in a multifaceted way, taking into ac­count all his/her characteristics, devel­opmental needs and in­dividual prob­lems. It is noted that in order to opti­mize the process of per­sonal development of the child, it is necessary to allow two areas to conduct a dialogue. Music-therapeutic methods of instrumental, vocal, motor improvisation, per­formance of ready-made musical works, receptive listening to music are high­lighted. A selection of musical works for work with younger stu­dents is pre­sented. The effectiveness of the influence of music therapy methods as a non-verbal form of correction on the personality of a junior schoolchild is noted.

Биокупол на уроках по предмету «Окружающий мир» при изучении темы «Круговорот воды в природе»

The topic "The Water Cycle", which is part of the discipline "The World Around Us", requires visual material for better understanding by younger students. The justification for this statement lies in the predominance of the visual-imaginative type of thinking over the verbal-logical type of thinking in younger students. In this regard, the abstract natural science material in the educational process of primary school, as a rule, is studied through experiments and experiments. We offer for consideration a visual material, which until recently had almost no scientific coverage: a children's scientific and entertaining set "Bio-dome", simulating the biosphere of the planet Earth and assuming interactive participation of students, including work in groups. The aim of this article is to describe the effectiveness of using the Bio-dome in laboratory experiments with elementary school students in studying the topic "The Water Cycle in Nature" based on the results of an empirical study. During the practical research the following methods were used: testing of elementary schoolchildren, laboratory experiment with a bio-dome and a pedagogical experiment. The study was conducted on the basis of the state budgetary educational institution of the city of Moscow "School N 1561". The results showed the effectiveness and prospects of using the bio-dome in the lessons of the discipline "The World Around Us" in the elementary school.

Instilling patriotism in primary students through the creation of book trailers

Introduction. In many countries of the world, the school is considered to be a center possessing all the resources for the formation of a free, democratic personality, a center for moral, civic, multicultural education. Literature, history, social science play an important role in educational programs in foreign countries; their study is considered as a source of spirituality, humanity, and citizenship. In the modern Russian school at the stage of primary education, much attention is paid to the formation of civic identity foundations, the cultivation of patriotism, and raising a responsible, creative, proactive, competent citizen of Russia. A special place in the moral education of primary students is occupied by the lessons of literature reading. Through the analysis of literary works, students understand the deep moral content of the work, the author’s attitude to the characters, the idea of the work. While considering the peculiarities of modern primary students, who are more focused on digital reading than traditional one, it becomes necessary to instill patriotic feelings in primary students through the creation of book trailers based on books by children’s writers about a heroic deed, about the Motherland, about the Great Patriotic War. The research is aimed at theoretical substantiation and experimental testing of the efficiency of the methodology for instilling patriotism in primary students through the creation of book trailers. Materials and methods. The research involved 51 students of the third grade of the general educational organization of the city of Zelenodolsk (the Russian Federation). The research used a combination of theoretical and experimental methods of studying objects that corresponded to the goals and objectives set and were aimed at determining the level of development of cognitive, emotional, activity criteria of patriotism (tests by N.F. Vinogradova "Great people of Russia", "Russia is proud of them"), revealing the level of development of behavioral motives in the education of patriotism (N. Biryukova’s test "I am a patriot"), identifying the level of development of digital literacy of a student (method of A.A. Efanova, M.A. Budanova, E.N. Yudina). For quantitative comparison, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used. Results. An analysis of the problem of instilling patriotism in primary students through the creation of literary and artistic book trailers based on books by children’s writers about the Motherland, the war, and heroic deeds allowed developing and testing a model of patriotic education of children based on the interactive activities of the teacher and students and aimed at educating cognitive, emotional, activity criteria of patriotism as well as development of digital literacy of students. Introduction of the model induced the following changes: 1) an increase in the level of the cognitive criterion of patriotism (up to 0.7082 and after 0.1075); 2) an increase in the level of the emotional criterion of patriotism (up to 0.5916 and after 0.0165); 3) an increase in the level of the activity criterion of patriotism (up to 0.7480 and after 0.0438); 4) an increase in the level of formation of digital literacy of students by 0.0457 (up to 0.6493 and after 0.0457). Conclusion. The model created for instilling patriotism in primary students through the development of book trailers allowed introducing and using this methodology in the educational process of primary school. The research results have demonstrated that the creation and use of book trailers in primary school had an effective impact on the development of interest in reading books about patriotism and citizenship, about the history of Russia, about the great people of Motherland, on the development of the emotional sphere of children as well as the development of activity criterion of patriotism in primary students.

Ensuring that future primary school teachers are properly trained in the use of immersive technologies is a key to successful informatization of education, which will ensure quality and effective education for future generations.

Leadership Qualities of Future Primary School Teachers: a Theoretical and Practical Discourse

The realities of today require quick and effective decisions in all spheres of life. One of the conditions that will contribute to the development of this process is the development of human leadership qualities. Having them, a person will learn to take responsibility for their actions and their consequences, to adapt to changing conditions of life.
 The views of modern domestic and foreign scientists are concentrated on the problem of leadership. In it they see the success not only of a particular person, but also of the state as a whole. Since the formation of a personality mostly takes place in primary school, the purpose of this publication was to determine the leadership qualities and features of their development in future primary school teachers, who must have them in order to form them in their pupils.
 In order to find out the state of formation of leadership qualities in future teachers, an experiment was conducted with first-year students of the first (bachelor's) level of higher education majoring in “Primary Education”. In order to determine the levels of leadership development, the methodology “Diagnostics of leadership abilities” (E. Zharikov, E. Krushelnytsky) was used. The data analysis shows that 78 % of students have poorly expressed leadership qualities. This is a demonstration that it will be difficult for students to develop these qualities on their own. The development and testing of tasks that will help students develop their leadership qualities and effectively carry out the educational process in primary school will encourage the solution of this problem. The presented tasks are focused on the use of group forms of work to improve leadership skills and stimulate students to self-development and self-realization.

PROJECTS IN COMPUTER LESSONS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL AS A MEANS OF FORMING INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION COMPETENCES OF YOUNGER SCHOOL STUDENTS

The author emphasizes that the vocation of educational institutions in our time (including elementary school) consists in the formation of competences in the students of education, which today act as a guarantee of a successful professional and personal life of a person. Also, in the conditions of the rapid development of computer equipment and information technologies, the priority of education development is determined by the introduction of modern information and communication technologies in education, which ensure the improvement of the educational process, the accessibility and effectiveness of education, and the preparation of the young generation for life in the information society. And the most effective means of solving the tasks in our time are projects as an activity for solving various problems. Projects have certain features and significantly increase motivation to study, as they form a reasonable balance between academic knowledge and pragmatic skills. The use of project activities in the educational process makes it possible to comprehensively solve the tasks of education, upbringing and development of the school. The implementation of projects by younger schoolchildren makes it possible to form a personality that better adapts to changing conditions and circumstances, orients itself in various situations, successfully integrates into society, defines and implements its life strategy, is capable of self-organization, self-realization, and creative potential. An important role in solving project problems is played by information technologies, familiarization and assimilation of which takes place in computer science classes in elementary school. The use of information and communication technologies in project activities makes it possible to master new ways of working with alternative sources of knowledge, establish new contacts to expand the sphere of communication. The positive emotions that students receive in project activities using information and communication technologies strengthen their self-confidence, contribute to the development of their cognitive activity, and increase motivation to study school subjects. In this case, the implementation of projects using information and communication technologies should be an integral structural element of the educational process of primary school.

ORAL AND WRITTEN COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE AT THE LESSONS OF FOREIGN AND NATIVE LANGUAGES IN PRIMARY SCHOOL IN THE PROCESS OF BLENDED LEARNING

Nowadays the paradigm of the Ukrainian educational system determines that the main task of the educational process is the formation of key competencies during teaching primary schoolchildren. Modern educational technologies should be aimed at creating vital abilities and skills.
 The article is devoted to one of the essential issues of the organization of the educational process in primary school in Ukraine, namely the peculiarities of the formation of schoolchildren’s oral and written communicative competence at the lessons of literacy (1st grade), Ukrainian language and Reading (2-4 grades) and Foreign Language (1-4 grades) in terms of blended learning due to the coronavirus pandemic.
 In the article we have analyzed and summarized the practical experience of the primary school teachers in terms of the formation of key and subject competencies in the conditions of blended learning in the educational process on the one hand, and the creation of the mobile educational environment during quarantine restrictions on the other hand. Also, we suggest the newly designed methodological tools for providing effective techniques while teaching primary schoolchildren at the lessons of linguistic and literature educational branch in general, and communicative (native and foreign) oral and written competencies in particular.
 The article offers a list of digital resources, modern pedagogical technologies, methods, assessment tools, the peculiarities of planning and conducting online lessons, which allow organizing the educational process effectively in the conditions of the pandemic. We have paid attention to the radical changes in the teachers and pupils’ activities, caused by the active usage of digital resources and innovative educational technologies in the blended learning conditions.
 In the off-line mode, the way of learning, transferring knowledge and vital skills acquisition is planned and managed by a teacher directly and the results of schoolchildren’ success depend on him/her. In the mode of online education, the role of the pupil becomes of paramount importance, because the independence, and hence: autonomy, self-regulation of educational activities prevail here.
 The teacher, conducting the subjects of linguistic and literature educational branch, performs the functions of a mentor-consultant, tutor, coordinator of cognitive activity, and pupils become active participants in the dynamic learning process, which provides a productive implementation of oral and written communicative approach to mastering subject and life skills.
