At all times, the primary teacher has faced various challenges and goals. Each generation brings new expectations and challenges. And this generation, like no other, seeks to know the world around us with all the senses. The contemporary teacher develops students' ability to think critically and creatively, solves theoretical and practical problems, sees a close relationship between nature and man and the world around, takes personal responsibility for the preservation of the environment, protects the health of theirs and others. Therefore, we are increasingly talking about the importance of getting out of class, crossing school boundaries, seeing what surrounds us, discovering opportunities to learn from nature in nature, finding innovative solutions to make learning a truly exciting, attractive activity for every modern child. It is important for the digital world indigenous to learn to be in nature, to watch animals, plants, natural phenomena, to know values, to learn to behave responsibly with nature, to see how much and interesting activities in it can be discovered, and how much there is to know, experience, feel, experiment, study and analyse. We invite you to familiarize yourself with a few of our activities that have evolved and matured from the great desire to "interest and surprise students with science education every day". Many of kindergartens and schools in Vilnius are interested in our activities. We are pleased to show you what has been achieved in pre-school and primary school students, prospective teachers.

The article emphasizes that the world around us sets its own requirements for the ability of a junior student to adapt to it, to his tolerant willingness to build constructive relationships with others. In reading lessons, which aim, among other things, to form the values of primary school students, they learn to choose an individual way of self-presentation, behavior and communication. The task of the teacher is to teach to observe life, to notice human kindness, sacrifice, courage, as well as heartlessness, cruelty, indifference. Hence the signs of a tolerant personality, such as patience, indulgence, tolerance for differences, kindness, the ability to listen to others, not to judge others, to take their position, the ability to empathize, humanism. The updated content of literary material, which comprehensively covers the sphere of interests of junior schoolchildren, its emotionality, novelty, decoration, interesting forms and methods of working with texts of works and children's books with preference to problematic, creative tasks should convince students that fiction is a special kind of art, and reading – a special, unique means of satisfying cognitive interests, knowledge of the world and self-knowledge, which can not be replaced by any other means of mass culture. In the process of experimental learning, we tried to design and implement such types of educational activities of students, which contributed to the formation of tolerance in them as the most important value of the individual. After analyzing some aspects of updating the content and methodology of reading lessons in primary school in the context of implementing the ideas of tolerant education, we note that the new textbooks and manuals for extracurricular reading contain many texts with the potential for educating this quality of personality. actions of characters; to feel the state of another person, to make a moral choice. Key words: formation of tolerance in junior schoolchildren, reading lessons, educational potential of reading lessons, formation of personality of junior schoolchildren.

Рассматриваются проблемы профессиональной ориентации детей младшего школьного возраста. Подчеркивается необходимость обращения внимания на смысловые дефиниции для более точного определения проблемного поля исследования. Представлены результаты изучения уровня знаний о профессиях обучающихся начальной школы г. Санкт-Петербурга. Определено, что смысловое содержание понятия «профессия» для обучающихся является абстрактным, также установлена недостаточная информированность детей в целом о мире профессий. Для получения достоверных сведений сопоставляются результирующие данные ответов детей и их родителей. Сделан вывод о том, что участникам эксперимента сложно представить себя в профессиональном будущем. Акцентируется внимание на необходимости улучшения работы по формированию знаний о профессиях младших школьников через реализацию соответствующей программы. The problems of professional orientation of children of primary school age are considered. For the introduction to the course of the studied problems, various views and approaches to the definition of the concept of “career guidance” and its components are described. The results of studying the level of knowledge about the professions of primary school students in St. Petersburg are presented. It is determined that the semantic content of the concept of “profession” for students is abstract and unclear, and also the lack of awareness of children in general about the world of professions is established. To obtain reliable and complete information, the results of the responses to the questionnaires of primary school students and their parents are compared. Based on the obtained research data, it is concluded that it is difficult for the participants of the experiment – younger schoolchildren to imagine themselves in the professional future. Attention is focused on the need to improve and systematize the work on the formation of complete knowledge of primary school students about professions through the implementation of an appropriate program in the course of primary school education. This program, based on the full interaction of adults and children, is focused not only on expanding children’s knowledge about the world of professions, but also fully taking into account their motives and interests, which ultimately can affect the quality of the educational process.

The aim of the present research is to examine the attitudes of students with special ed-ucational needs (SEN) towards the study subject of “The World Around Us” and educational environment. Research subjects were 370 mainstream primary school students. Primary school students more often like than dislike the examined subject. Preferred activities during classes are a conversation, group work and games; however, even in the pre-ferred activities the students with SEN participated less often. The majority of the students like the topics about nature, plants and animals, while in the sphere of social environment they are more interested in the topics about the past and traditions, about their native land and foreign countries. The research demonstrated that provided with comprehensive and sin-cere support, students with different kinds of SEN can take an active part in the lessons and in extra activities, they are able to work next to their peers. Key words: attitudes, students with special educational needs (SEN), study subject “The World Around Us”, educational process and environment.

Among the skills that modern people need for self-realization there are creativity, critical thinking, communication with people, working with information, computer literacy, striving for self-improvement, flexibility, openness to innovations. To navigate the turbulent flow of information, each individual needs developed critical thinking. Critical thinking skills should be developed and refined right from the school desk, from the early school age. Children are open to innovations. These qualities should be used to their maximum potential in the educational process. The article presents separate methods for the development of critical thinking, which a primary school teacher can use in teaching process of the subject "I am in the World". Specific examples of using the Aquarium methods are presented: "Fish bone", "Six hats" and others at the lessons in the 3rd form of comprehensive schools. The emphasis is made on the importance of students’ critical thinking, which promotes orientation towards success in activity, self-realization and self-development. Mastering the strategies of critical thinking development is considered as an important task of educational systems in many countries of the world, including Ukraine. Critical thinking is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon. Facilitating its development in students requires a teacher of high professionalism. In this situation attention should be paid to the systematic and thorough study of the theory and methodology of teaching, the experience of using various strategies of other teachers, methodologists, accumulation of their own experience. There are a lot of methods for the development of critical thinking. Each of them has its own specifics, structure, stages (although it is not forbidden to make certain adjustments, taking into account the age of pupils, the studied subject). Proper use of such methods in the course "I am in the World”, which is interdisciplinary and shapes the outlook of students, will help the primary school teacher to teach children to think independently, to see and evaluate the problem, to look for several possible solutions, to make decisions and to interact effectively with others.

In Islamic education, one most important thing is the education of faith or belief, because it all starts from it. Faith is the foundation of knowledge and value. Islam emphasizes how important it is to teach values to kids in primary school level and how important is the role of parents and teachers.

School, particularly primary school, plays a special and unique role in education. It joins teachers and students together, in order to show children and youths the complex reality of the world. Educational processes implemented in the following institution can reflect knowledge transmission or can be based on transaction models. Education is stimulating, experimental and exploratory as it guides students to the world of forming questions, searching for answers and developing conclusions. Unfortunately, this model is rather uncommon in Polish primary schools. This publication presents how experimenting, used by teachers, could introduce 7-year-old students in the first grade of primary school, into the world of knowledge and natural science competence. It also shows how experimenting affects the level of students’ education and natural science competence. The research aimed for describing methods of experimenting with first grade students in science education as well as explaining the connection between applying experiments in science education and students’ level of skills and knowledge. The research used a method of pedagogical experiment - quasi-experimental testing based on initial and final measurement using practical tests. The study included 307 primary school first-graders. The studies have established that there are dependencies between experimenting in science education as well as knowledge and skills level among the first grade primary school students, taking into account subjects’ gender. At the end, conclusions were also drawn regarding the possibilities for more extensive use of experimentation in Polish schools.

According to the suicidal state in the world, Kazakhstan ranks third after China and Russia. This situation among children and young people gives reason to think about the education of children in preschool age, especially in primary school. Starting from the youngest years, it is necessary to instill in their consciousness and sense of valuing their own life and the lives of others. In order to focus the attention of social educators on this problem, we offer a plan of work with students and their parents. An important way to overcome suicide and deviant behavior among adolescent children is, firstly, to provide preschool organizations with social teachers; secondly, to work with primary school students, to strengthen a separate social teacher; thirdly, to include an event on the prevention of suicide and deviant behavior among students in the work plan of a social teacher of small schools.
