SOME IMPORTANT ISSUES OF FORMING CRITICAL THINKING IN PRIMARY GRADE STUDENTS

Abstract

This article analyzes the pedagogical, psychological and methodological
aspects of the formation of critical thinking in primary school students. The study, based on the
theories of Ennis, Fisher, Erden and Ruggiero, highlights ways to develop independent thinking,
analysis, reasoning and drawing conclusions in students. In particular, using the example of native
language and reading literacy lessons, critical questions, discussion and text analysis are shown
as an effective approach to increasing students' independence of thought and creativity.
