The article is devoted to the role of increase of junior schoolchildren’s cognitive activity as an important condition for the development of cognitive abilities of  learners.  Psycho-pedagogical  support  should  be  focused  on  the  development of cognitive functions of junior schoolchildren, and psychologists and parents should be involved in this process, as well as the teachers. Traditionally, psycho-pedagogical support at primary school focuses on the child's adaptation to the new educational environment.  We  consider  that  a  child  needs  the  same  support  in  the  process of mastering  the  curriculum.  There  is  no  true  support  without  an  emotional involvement and empathy, and as a result cognitive activity of a child might suffer greatly. It was proven by empirical results obtained in an ordinary school, where no innovative teaching methods are used. At the end of primary school pupils have a significantly reduced motivation, teachers express no serious interest in problems of junior high school students. Not entirely satisfactory educational environment also could not provide a positive influence on the development of cognitive sphere.

Introduction: One of the major nutritional mistakes committed by children and adolescents is snacking between meals. Sweet or salty snacks are rich in simple sugars, fats, preservatives and dyes, and poor in minerals and vitamins. Their excessive consumption can lead to the development of diet-related diseases in the future. Purpose: To evaluate the nutrition of children and adolescents with a focus on snacking between meals. Materials and methods: The study included 162 students from Bialystok schools, of which primary school students accounted for 30.2%, junior high school 38.3%, high school 31.5%. The questionnaire used by the authors contained 27 questions. Results: Regular meals were consumed by only 55.1% of primary school students, 35.5% of junior high school, and 37.3% of high school students. Two and fewer meals a day were consumed by 1.6% to 5.8% of the students studied. First breakfast was omitted by 18.4% of the students in elementary school, 16.1% of junior high school, and 15.7% of high school. Second breakfast was omitted by 12.9% to 17.6% of the respondents.Sweet products instead of a second breakfast were consumed by 44.9% of primary school students, 61.3% of junior high school, and 64.7% of high school students. Snacking most often occurred in the respondents' home (69.4% of elementary school students, 43.5% of secondary level students, and 52.9% of high school students). Water in school was drunk by 85.7% of primary level students, 56.5% of junior high school, and 51.0% of high school. The main source of knowledge about nutrition for 61.2% of primary level students was the family, while television, radio, and the Internet were the main sources of knowledge for 62.7% of high school students. Conclusions: The regularity of eating in the study group decreased with the studied students’ age. The most popular products in the group of younger students were salty snacks and sweets. Healthy snacking was observed more frequently in the group of high school students. The main place of snacking was the home. The primary source of knowledge about nutrition for primary school students was the family and for high school students the mass media.

The article concerns the difficulties of learning geography in junior high school students and adolescents as they are reflected in foreign publications. It also discusses the effective teaching methods to be used by educators. Research results obtained by scientists from the United States, Ireland, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, China, Japan and other countries are analyzed in comparison with data of Russian researches. The article substantiates that people today need the knowledge of geography and therefore this subject must be present in the primary school curriculum as a part of an integral course, and in primary school as a separate academic discipline. It is possible to develop spatial and systematic thinking in students and to shape their worldviews by means of a school course in geography. However, the current state of this school subject does not meet the expectations of educators and scientists. The analyzed studies demonstrate the drop of interest to learning geography, as it is thought to be difficult. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of possible difficulties that students with mild disabilities may confront with in the course of their study of geography. We describe how to cope with potential problems and describe the teaching methods which are the most efficient and effective in improving the quality of geographical education. All studies are of great importance for the practice of education, because geographically literate person is able to take care of our planet, appreciate it, live harmoniously in a closely interdependent world

The article considers the influence of interactive learning and constant psychological support on the level of mental development of a junior schoolchild. The analysis of literature sources showed that interactive learning as a specific form of organization of cognitive activity, promotes the manifestation of internal potential, optimizes the mental development of primary school students, creates comfortable learning conditions in which each student feels his success and intellectual ability. It is substantiated that the game, as one of the types of interactive learning, plays an important role in working with younger students, because the game is an extremely powerful tool for developing the abilities of primary school students. The experiment involved 366 junior high school students, namely: 111 students of the experimental class of parallel "B" of the primary school of the first stream, 129 students of the experimental class of parallel "B" of the primary school of the second stream and 126 students of the control class of parallel "A" of the second stream. The following methods were used: 1) Phillips school anxiety test; 2) sociometric method (J. Moreno); 3) proofreading test "Ring of Landolt" (selectivity of attention); 4) methods for studying the concentration and stability of attention (modification of the Pieron-Roser method); 5) methods for determining the mental development of junior high school students EF Zambatsevichene. It is determined that modern children need a completely different approach to education and upbringing. learning, in which each student feels his success and intellectual ability. The influence of interactive learning on: the formation of a high level of motivation to learn and the level of cohesion of class groups; to improve selectivity and concentration; to improve logical and mechanical memory, reduce anxiety in younger students. It is concluded that an effective means of developing the mental abilities of primary school students are new methods of interactive learning, including psychological play in combination with constant psychological support. It was determined that . From this we can conclude about the effectiveness of the latest methods of interactive learning and psychological support for the development of the personality of primary school children. Based on the results of the study, the impact of interactive learning on: reducing the level of anxiety in younger students; on the formation of a high level of motivation for learning and the level of cohesion of class groups; on the selectivity and concentration of attention; to improve logical and mechanical memory. Based on the obtained results, methodological recommendations for primary school teachers were developed and tested in order to ensure the positive impact of interactive learning on the development of the personality of primary school students. Prospects for further research are the improvement of interactive teaching methods, including psychological games and their further implementation in the educational process of secondary schools.

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.

It is proved in the article that personality had to be able to think, constructing logical reasoning with the help of concepts, judgments and inferences, and the ability to interact constructively with others, working in a team, to succeed in the society. The content and structure of social success of a child of primary school age are presented. This concept is proposed as an integrated quality, which consists of three components: motivational, instrumental and emotional and behavioral. The motivational component is characterized by the presence of the need for knowledge, the desire to succeed. The instrumental component covers three components: cognitive (systematized program knowledge; developed conceptual, divergent, critical thinking); operational (intellectual, intellectual and cognitive, research, intellectual and creative skills); evaluative and effective (reflection and adequate self-esteem). The emotional and behavioral component of social success of junior high school students is represented by the following components: value (presence of value orientations), emotiona and volitional (developed emotional intelligence, respect, sensitivity to others, self-control, volitional qualities), communicative (developed social intelligence). Psychological and pedagogical conditions are characterized as a mechanism of formation of social success of a child of primary school age in the process of studying in the Institutions of general secondary education (IGSE), namely: dominance of problem searching dialogue between teachers and students and between students in the educational process of primary classes; implementation of the course “Logic” in the educational process of primary school in 2–4th classes and tasks related to the content of the course “Logic” on lessons in Humanities and Natural Sciences and Mathematics cycles; creating tasks for joint learning activities, providing “I am – the inclusion” of each pupil in joint work. The mission of the course “Logic” in the content of primary education is described; the techniques of organization and implementation of problem searching dialogue between the subjects of the educational process, the organization of educational activities in a team are revealed.

Pythagoras Theorem

A domain of learning, understanding is an absolute prerequisite for improving cognitive abilities. Leveling the mental model of students is one way in which a teacher can review the extent to which students understand based on their respective levels. The purpose of this study was to describe the six degrees of student's mental models in understanding the concept of using the Pythagoras theorem in junior high school students. The method used in this study is a qualitative research method. The subjects in this study amounted to 61 students who were a combination of 30 students of class VIII A and 31 students of class VIII B. The two classes of subjects were taken so that the six levels of the mental model were founded. The sixty-one items test questions were given. Each of the representatives of mental models who found the criteria was selected, namely two students to be interviewed so that 12 students were interview respondents. To ensure the validity of the data, researchers analyzed the data in two ways, namely data source triangulation and method triangulation. The results of the study showed a description of each level of the student's mental model in understanding the concept of using the Pythagoras theorem.   Suatudomain belajar, pemahaman merupakan prasyaratan mutlak untuk meningkatkankemampuankognitif.  Pelevelan model mental siswa merupakan salah satu cara dimana seorang pengajar dapat meninjau sejauh manakah pemahaman siswa berdasarkan tingkatan masing – masing.

The article presents the results of the study of students’ language competences who attend the first secondary school classes. In 2019, as a result of the education reform, two groups of students started their education in the first grades: junior high school graduates and eight-grade primary school graduates. Pre-secondary education in the case of students leaving primary school lasted a year shorter. Both groups took the exam at the end of lower junior high school or elementary school, respectively, and studied according to a different core curriculum. During the study, it was assumed that thanks to the education that lasted a year longer and was based on a different core curriculum, lower secondary school students should achieve better results in terms of creating an argumentative text and in terms of selected language skills. Both groups of students wrote the same test to confirm or reject the thesis. The results of the study showed that both groups of students achieved comparable results. In some areas, younger students have even outranked junior high school students. At the same time, it turned out that the lower stage of education was completed by students with very different competences. Both among junior high school and primary school students there are very good and very weak students, while in the group of junior high school students there is a large percentage of very weak students. This may prove that for many students three years of lower secondary school were a waste of time, and the last two years of primary school were enough to master the tested skills.
