Existing federal state educational standards of general secondary education require meta-subject results achievement. It causes reasonable didactic problems for teachers of all subjects. Despite the rather long period of school educational process implementation by new standards in regulatory way, the problem of the formation and evaluation of meta-subject results is far from a praxeological solution, so the search for effective educational practices that bring educational subjects closer to achieving the goal remains relevant. А rural school with a number of favorable educational process characteristics that determine the integrative processes inside and outside of school education, provides new peculiar options for organizing students’ meta-subject activity to summarize by a corresponding section of pedagogical science and practice. The purpose of the study is to describe the best practices of teaching physics in the context of the formation and evaluation of meta-subject results. Practices are based on developing concepts and ideas of modern education, in particular, needs for a) students to master the methodology of scientific knowledge in the way of a cycle of «facts – problem – hypothesis – model – conclusions – sequences – criteria-based experiment» (concepts of V. V. Multanovsky, V. V. Mayer, V. G. Razumovsky, Yu. A. Saurov); b) learning of the most general categories or universals, connecting students' perceptions of the world into a holistic picture (in our case, the category of symmetry); c) a value attitude formation to human cognition of the world and the search for appropriate meanings. The course of the study is reflected in the presentation logic from a review of the basic theoretical research concepts in this education area and also physics methodology to a generalized conclusion about meta-subject educational practices in a rural school and the presentation of this practice specific example – a physics lesson on the topic «Symmetry is around us and at the core of everything». Results, presented as an interpretative characteristic of a lesson with methodological orientation and its specific model can be useful for physics teachers, chemistry teachers and biology teachers of general-educational organizations, teachers of vocational education organizations methodologists in the field of natural sciences, professionaldevelopment systems for natural science teachers and their retraining.
