The problem of introducing distance learning in primary school is actualized by the development of social networks and Internet technologies, which open unlimited horizons for their application in educational activities. In addition, the introduction of quarantine in Ukraine requires primary school teachers to find ways to effectively master the program material. Among such ways is distance learning. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the specifics and possibilities of organizing the educational process in primary school with the use of distance learning. In the process of scientific research methods of analysis, synthesis, generalization and systematization were used. Distance learning in primary school is defined as a form of organization and implementation of the educational process, in which the subjects of learning (teachers and students) in the online mode carry out educational interaction in principle and mainly extraterritorially. In the context of reforming modern Ukrainian education, a number of e-platforms have been created for the organization of distance learning for primary school students. An effective commercial platform for distance learning is the service "My Class", which contains online courses from 1st to 11th grade, which contain lessons that integrate theoretical (test presentation of content) and practical (individual tasks that can be solved independently of each other, a block of tasks that need to be solved sequentially, guidelines) blocks. Result. Emphasis is placed on the requirements to be met by a primary school teacher when organizing distance learning in primary school during the quarantine period and it is suggested to advise parents who will work remotely with junior students in the initial stages of distance learning, gradually transferring activity to children.

The World

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.

An analysis of the literature and the practice of forming a teacher’s own skills to organize and accompany research (project) activities indicates significant difficulties that he encounters in his daily activities. The insufficient level of scientific and theoretical knowledge, methodological and methodological training does not allow the teacher to successfully set and independently solve the problems of accompanying students in the educational process. Many teachers experience significant difficulties in organizing and supporting research activities: initiating and defining a research topic, formulating a scientific apparatus, preparing tools for collecting information and conducting an experiment. The article substantiates the conditions for the development of teacher’s skills to organize and carry out pedagogical support of research and project activities of primary school students. These conditions contribute to the formation of these skills of a primary school teacher, especially since the system of continuous teacher education provides significant opportunities for this. The described work carried out based on the ideas of cooperation pedagogy, stimulating productive interaction of community members, which contributes to the development of the qualities necessary for pedagogical support of students’ activities.

This article focuses on how history as a concept is understood by first-year BA Education students. Students were asked to respond to the following questions: ‘what is history?’, ‘what is history to you?’ and ‘who writes history?’ Verbal and written consent was obtained from the students to participate in the study. Their answers demonstrated a concept of history that is imbued with a spatial and temporal as well as ideological and moral position. This article argues that, through the data, it seems that for these students the concept of history emerges as an object that is given a moral value, rather than history being seen as having value as a knowledge or skill set. I draw parallels between my findings and Donovan and Bransford’s work on how history is learnt by primary school students in the United States. There are clear similarities between the primary school understandings recorded in Donovan and Bransford, and first-year university understandings that emerged in the data of this study. This article argues that if history is understood as moral, as ‘good’ or ‘bad’, critical thinking and analytic skills which learning history can imbue are vastly diminished. Furthermore, this article uses Lauren Berlant’s concept of ‘cruel optimism’ to consider the implications of how the participating students understand what history is.

The prerequisite for ensuring the professional training of masters in the specialty "The Primary Education" in Ukraine is the formation of their professional competence to teach in the higher education institutions. After all, in addition to qualifying as a primary school teacher, they are also qualified as the teacher of pedagogy. Accordingly, the preparation of the modern primary school teacher requires the organization of the educational process in higher education on a scientific humanistic basis which provides purposeful systematic provision of psychological and pedagogical training of scientific and pedagogical staff for the higher education institutions of different levels of accreditation for their interaction with students. This article summarizes the author's experience of studying the teaching methods of the disciplines "Fundamentals of Pedagogy", "Didactics", "Theory and Methods of Education", "Socio-pedagogical Fundamentals of Educational Management" and "History of Pedagogy". In particular, theoretical and aspects of students' methodical activity are revealed: active listening, participation in dialogue and discussion during lectures, observation of pedagogical classes from different sections (basics of pedagogy, didactics, theory of education, history of pedagogy), development of the text of lectures on separate topics, micro-teaching and analysis of pedagogical situations, their modeling, execution of creative tasks, production of visual material. Preparation of the masters for teaching of pedagogical disciplines in the institutions of higher pedagogical education facilitates their mastery of the basic concepts and categories of pedagogy, historical aspects of the formation of pedagogy as a science, current trends in education; the content of pedagogical disciplines in the institutions of higher pedagogical education; features of the education process, its regularities and principles, the methods and organizational forms, etc. Also, in the process of studying the methodology of teaching pedagogical disciplines, the masters have the ability to prepare curricula for disciplines; to plan and conduct various types of training (lectures, seminars and practical classes); to control and diagnose students' educational achievements; to organize various types of cognitive work with students, etc.

The article describes the results of the development and testing of an algorithm for designing interactive activities for primary school. The algorithm is developed taking into account the characteristics of modern primary school students, examining different interpretations of the concept «interactive» in different spheres of human life and fields of study (such as linguistics, sociology, psychology, pedagogy) and considering the problem of using the term «interactive» in the modern education system. The algorithm for designing interactive activities includes six sequential steps: to select the content; to choose a type of group for the activity; to create the activity in which each student will personally participate; to think over different options to provide choice for students; to select the technical means; to set a time limit. Each action of the algorithm is depicted from the perspective of a primary school teacher. The survey of the teachers found significant changes in teachers’ perceptions of the term «interactive», in their understanding of distinctive features of the interactive activities and difficulties to create suitable interactive activities. It is noted the importance of continuing research in the aspect of the influence of interactive activities on the educational achievements of primary school students (including the development of functional literacy). The article was prepared with the financial support of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation within the framework of the research project «The development of functional literacy among primary school students in the implementation of educational programs».

In the article, one has experimentally verified the state of practice regarding the use of educational and methodical media by a primary school teacher. One has analyzed the role of educational and methodical media complexes is analyzed, clarified the reasons for the subsisting disadvantages are clarified, revealed the possibilities of an integrative approach to the organization of education in primary school, and the needs of teachers and others. One has admitted that the aspects of the activity that correspond to the educational and methodological media complexes function mostly in an isolated manner. Concerning this approach, certain elements of management in general secondary education establishments cannot ensure a full and effective formation of a holistic system of modern visual aids of student learning. One has conducted a comparative analysis of curricula and programs in sundry disciplines, selective observation of teachers’ activities in the classroom. One has outlined the significance and pedagogical possibilities of educational and methodical media complexes. The scale of continuity levels with the use of conditional names of educational and methodical media complexes is developed: “General concepts and definitions”; “Peculiarities of media for primary school”; “Basic teacher training for media use”; “Special training of primary school teachers for media use” and “Creative use of media complexes”. One has proved that all educational and methodical media complexes should not only interact but obey the logic of continuity, where coordination occurs simultaneously as to a paramount number of diverse parameters (virtual, psychological, gnoseological, sociological, organizational, etc.), the importance of which must be taken into account. The results of the analysis have shown that in some cases one coordinates the aspects of the activity that ensure the functioning of the components that correspond to these educational and methodological media complexes only formally, on the basis of superficial, arbitrary connections. One has confirmed the research of potential opportunities for the implementation of the proposed media complexes in general secondary education establishments due to expert assessments of the perspective implementation in the educational process. One has applied the author’s methods on the example of the subject of Fine Arts for practical implementation and preliminary diagnosis. The carried out analysis of the state of practice has made it possible to conclude about the appropriateness of forming educational and methodological media complexes on the basis of integration, the necessity to model their activities based on scientifically sound approaches, and the development of ways to implement them in the educational process of primary school.
