This paper aims to highlight the importance and the possibilities of developing creativity and creative thinking in mathematics instruction. One of the key tasks of the educational process in schools is the stimulation and development of students' creative abilities. Students' creative abilities and divergent forms of working with them are not restricted to specific areas and fields of human activity; rather, it is a matter of the specific and distinctive qualities of the development of creativity and creative expression in certain areas, or school subjects. The paper examines the need and the possibilities of developing creative thinking in children of primary school age and in mathematics instruction in the lower and upper grades of primary school, since creativity is not linked exclusively to art or certain fields or school subjects, nor is it the privilege only of gifted and talented children and students.

In the article the possibility of establishing a connection between the creative and moral spheres of the person is discussed. The author analyzes the results of foreign and domestic researches devoted to the study of the relationship between creativity and morality. The concept of "moral capacities" is proposed, its definition is given and three aspects of its study are identified. The results of a study of the relationship between creativity and the cognitive aspect of moral capacities in children of primary school age are presented. The empirical study involved 130 people; age – 7-9 years; boys – 71 people and girls – 59 people. The following methods were used: Torrance Test of Creative Thinking – figural form (study of the creative sphere) and two methods that assess children's ideas about moral behavior (study of the moral sphere). The results obtained show that there is no connection between the indicators of creativity and moral capacities in children of 7-9 years old, which is explained, according to the author, by their age characteristics. When interpreting the results, the specificity of primary school age is considered, associated with a turning point in the child's life.

В статье представлен анализ результатов использования и применения интерактивной тетради как средства развития познавательного интереса младших школьников к изучению русского языка. Установлено, что успешное развитие познавательного интереса к изучению русского языка у детей младшего школьного возраста может быть обеспечено за счет реализации ряда педагогических условий. При использовании интерактивной тетради на уроках русского языка создавались ситуации успеха для каждого ребенка с учетом его особенностей познавательной сферы и учебных возможностей, применялся дифференцированный подход к содержанию учебных заданий, к применяемым педагогическим методам, дидактическим играм и характеру помощи учителя. В рамках данной статьи представлен анализ результатов исследования, где показано, что использование новых педагогических приемов и создание ситуаций успеха на занятиях позволили изменить эмоциональное и ценностное отношение к русскому языку. Диагностика мотивационно-ценностного, действенно-практического и эмоционально-волевого компонентов выявила наличие интереса детей к самостоятельному изучению дополнительных источников по русскому языку, обучающиеся стали выбирать задания частично-поискового или поискового характера. В ходе реализации совокупности педагогических условий были выявлены факторы, негативно влияющие на развитие познавательного интереса обучающихся к русскому языку.

Introduction: The search for ways to improve the effectiveness of correctional work in the context of inclusion through the development of polymodal perception is relevant in special psychology and pedagogy. Most often, inclusive education covers students with severe speech disorders (SSD) and mental retardation (MR). The disadvantages of the polymodal perception in these categories of children are noted by various researchers, whose recommendations relate mainly to differentiated special education. The paper aims to analyze and generalize scientific ideas about the problem of developing polymodal perception in 6-11-year-old children with SSD and MR and offer adequate approaches to solving it in terms of inclusion. Materials and methods: The research relies on scientific publications made by the author as well as the studies by other scientists covering experimental studies of the sensory-perceptual sphere of a person in various age ranges. General scientific and comparative-historical methods were used to fulfill the objectives set. Results of the study: The negative characteristics of the individual structure of polymodal perception in children with disabilities with preserved intelligence of senior preschool and primary school age, which were identified in various studies, are analyzed and generalized. The findings reveal a general pattern, which lies in the fact that students with SSD and MR in an age range of 6-11 years often show shortcomings of polymodal (joint, interconnected) perception, despite conventionally healthy visual, auditory, and tactile-kinesthetic (sensory-motor) analyzers, when medical and other individual examinations do not find significant pathologies in their functioning. These shortcomings cause inadequate processing of received information and reduce the quality of the educational process. A multisensory method of providing educational information is proposed, which most fully implements the principle of maximum reliance on polymodal afferentations, which facilitates the perception of program content and at the same time contributes to its improvement in children with disabilities. The paper shows the possibilities of using this method in the inclusive educational process. Conclusion: This paper can be useful to special psychologists, speech therapists, speech pathologists, and other teachers who work with children of senior preschool and primary school age with SSD and MR. Keywords: Polymodal perception, severe speech disorders (SSD), mental retardation (MR), multisensory method of information delivery, systemic speech disorders, speech therapy conclusion.
