ASSESSMENT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF VOLITIONAL ACTIONS IN YOUNGER SCHOOLCHILDREN IN THE CONTEXT OF GROUP WORK

Abstract

The article is dedicated to a problem of development of volitional actions of younger schoolchildren. The relevance of involving children in labor activity through practical skills in terms of achieving subject-manipulative goals is described. The purpose of the study is to test effectiveness of development of volitional actions of younger schoolchildren in the context of group work. To achieve the goal, the following tasks are set: to evaluate the development of volitional actions in younger schoolchildren and to develop classes on “Skillful hands” group work. The criteria for the presence of volitional actions such as determination and accuracy are chosen as an assessment. The novelty of the research lies in the fact that the process of developing volitional actions includes circle activities through the applied practice of weaving. Regular weaving from different materials requires concentration, patience, perseverance and self-discipline, which has a beneficial effect on the development of volitional actions in children.
