The article substantiates the necessity to study the criterion-content and level structure regarding the formation of readiness of future elementary school teachers to organize dialogic teaching. While creating the program of the experimental work the author has taken into account the basic postulations of psychological and pedagogical science, concerning the problem of the readiness of future specialists to organize dialogic teaching, professionalism of activity and communication and dialogic pedagogical communication. The article offers indicative criteria for studying the readiness of future elementary school teachers to organize dialogic teaching of students: need-motivational, cognitive, social-communicative, reflexive-value and operational-activity, as well as indicators of their detection. The levels of readiness of future elementary school teachers to organize dialogic training are determined - high, medium and low. The author presents the results of the empirical study of the state of students' readiness for dialogic teaching of primary school students according to the need-motivational criterion. The results of diagnostics of future teachers' motivation of achievement, understanding of their motivational structure of dialogic teaching, internal motivation of their readiness for self-development, resistance to external influences (in particular, results of ranking by the degree of importance of motives of future pedagogical professional activity) are presented. It is proved that the introduction into the process of training of primary school teachers of the author’s model allows to change substantially the motivation of future specialists for future professional activity.

In the theory and practice of teaching primary school students great deal of attention is paid to the issue of training effectiveness and, in particular, to the issue of cognitive activity’s activation in students. The relevance of this topic can be explained by the fact that introduction of the Federal State Educational Standards of primary general education requires the teacher to know the new forms and methods of educational process organization, which could be feasible and effective in the modern conditions and interesting for children. In this article the author offers an efficient way of application of art-figurative means during the lessons in primary school. Art is the incentive of cognitive activity activation in children. Emotions give personal sense to received knowledge. The author considers the following forms of work with students: modeling of lessons, development of the technological card of a lesson, business game, and master classes. Students master methodical receptions: “transformation” into natural object, ordering of artistic images, and transformation of one art sample into another. The lessons developed by students were approved in practice at elementary school. Teachers noted positive influence of art means on activation of cognitive activity of elementary school pupils.

The article considers the problem of organization and methodological support of the process of formation of skills of network joint activities in primary school students. The relevance of this research problem is due to the following contradictions:between the need for a practice-oriented and controlled focus on the process of forming in young schoolchildren the skills of safe and ethical interaction in the network, as a requirement of a modern digital society and the lack of pedagogical conditions for its implementation in educational institutions;between the high potential of network interaction in the formation of digital literacy elements of elementary schoolchildren and insufficient practical and theoretical research in this area;between the didactic opportunities of joint network activities in the process of training and education in elementary school and the insufficient development of pedagogical conditions for its implementation.The purpose of the study:  the development and experimental testing of the level model of network interaction of primary school children in a distributed information and educational environment. This model is based on the principle of a phased increase in the degree of activity, independence and responsibility of subjects of joint network activities, which is implemented through specially designed educational and methodological support. The problem is highlighted due to the lack of research and the lack of specialized methodological support in the field of networking in elementary school.Materials and methods.  The theoretical basis of the study is the analysis of research works in the field of Internet security for schoolchildren and the psychology of primary school children, a generalization of pedagogical experience in the use of distance and network technologies in classroom activities, an analysis of the regulatory documents of primary general education.Results.  The approbation of the level model of network interaction of primary schoolchildren was carried out during the 2016–2017, 2017– 2018, 2018–2019 academic years on the basis of MAOU Gymnasium No. 9 of Krasnoyarsk and secondary school No. 11 of Abakan. The study covered 105 primary school students. A complete set of educational and methodological support for the network interaction of elementary schoolchildren in computer science lessons in a distributed information and educational environment has been developed and fully tested.Conclusion.  The level model of network interaction of elementary schoolchildren described in the article can be used both in the classroom and in extracurricular activities in various subject areas in elementary school. This model includes four levels of network interaction formation: interaction independently from each other without feedback, interaction independently from each other with the need for mutual control, consistent interaction with observance of the order and correctness of the task, non-linear interaction. In accordance with the developed model of network interaction, a distributed informational and educational environment of elementary school was formed and filled up on the example of the subject field “informatics”, which ensures the implementation of various types of elementary school students network interaction in classroom activities. Research materials can be replicated in general education organizations at the initial stage, and also used to improve the skills of primary school teachers and computer scientists.

The purpose of the work is to theoretically justify and experimentally prove the effectiveness of the use of musical and didactic games as a means of teaching younger students in music lessons and identify its advantages in comparison with traditional methods. The main conclusion of the work – a comparative analysis of the results of experimental work showed that significant changes took place in the development of the musicality of elementary school students, in which musical and didactic games were used. In general, after the use of music and didactic games in music lessons in elementary school, more schoolchildren with a high level of musicality development were identified. The results of the study showed the effectiveness and efficiency of developing the musicality of primary school students using music and didactic games and the feasibility of their use in music lessons in primary school. The great advantage of games is that this type of work is joyfully perceived by younger students, and you can organize the game so that it will contribute to solving the problems of their musical training, education, development.

In this study, we explored the relationship between extracurricular (formal and informal) music activity participation and music and Chinese language academic achievements of primary school students in China. Fourth graders ( N = 10,958) reported their demographic information and extracurricular music activity participation, and completed two standardized academic achievement tests, one on music and another on the Chinese language. Results showed that students’ music activity participation was related to higher music academic achievement after controlling for gender, school location, and family socioeconomic status. The effect of students’ informal music activity participation on their music academic achievements was greater than that of students’ formal music activity participation. Remarkably, students’ informal music activity participation was also positively related to their Chinese language academic achievement, while formal music activity participation showed a negative correlation with academic achievement in Chinese language. Findings contributed to an increased understanding of the influence of different kinds of extracurricular music activities on students’ academic developments.

Investigations were conducted on learning problems using the sample of eighth-grade students of primary school (N=335). The respondents opted for one or more than seven offered statements related to: insufficient previous knowledge, insufficient studying, teaching contents (extensive, difficult unintelligible), textbook and teacher?s method of presenting the contents. On the basis of the results obtained, one-third of students have problems in mastering teaching contents of foreign language, physics and chemistry, and about one-fourth in mastering those of history and mathematics. All the mentioned causes of problems are present in varying degrees in some school subjects. The causes of learning problems are markedly present in a larger number of school subjects and they are related to some characteristics of teaching contents. Respondents point out, to a large extent, that teaching contents of technical education are uninteresting. In addition, students? responses indicate that it is necessary to improve the method for mastering the teaching contents in various school subjects i.e. methods applied in the teaching process. Subjective causes, as pointed out by students, are connected with some of the subjects they have characterized as the most difficult. Unintelligible textbook is stressed to the lowest extent as a cause of learning problems compared to other causes stated for the majority of school subjects.

The article presents results of an empirical study of the age dynamics of the social situation of develop¬ment in primary school students in inclusive education. The study sample consisted of 328 children aged from 7 to 11, including 18 children with SEN, studying in two inclusive schools in Moscow. The hypothesis of the study was that the characteristics of the objective and subjective aspects of the social situation of chil¬dren’s development change in accordance with the two phases of primary school age. The characteristics of the social situation of the development of children were measured using the “Sociometry” method and two projective methods: “Color Test of Relationship” and “Sentence Completion Test”. The age dynamics is ob¬served in changes in the social position and the system of orienting images of primary school students. The significant differences between the distribution of sociometric statuses of students in inclusive classes and the age standard obtained in the conditions of traditional education were found. The results of the study reveal the specificity of elementary school students’ development in conditions of inclusive education.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the scientific and philosophical thought development, which served as a challenge to the renewal of the content of environmental education at the beginning of the XXI century. The analysis of the stages of domestic environmental education development, its content from the point of view of reflection in it of relations between society and nature is carried out. A new stage in the environmental education development in the 21st century is associated with the spread of ideas of sustainable development, which determine the transformation of all spheres of human culture. The article provides examples of tasks that currently exist in the educational literature for one of the primary school subjects, and a variant of their change from the standpoint of environmental education in the interests of sustainable development is proposed. The modern literature on the methodology of teaching the subject “The World Around” in primary school is considered from the point of view of the representation of the content of environmental education in it. The author comes to the conclusion about the insufficiency of the natural science orientation of environmental education for the formation of students’ ideas about the environmental imperative – a key category for understanding the conditions for harmonizing nature, society and the world of things. Based on the analysis performed, a conclusion was made about the relevance of updating the content of school environmental education. It is substantiated that this will contribute to the achievement of its planned result – the formation of a modern ecological culture among students. Keywords: general education, environmental education, educational content, environmental imperative, environmental culture
