FEATURES OF ATTENTION AND THINKING IN PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN WITH SPEECH DISORDERS

Abstract

The article notes that the majority of modern children have an insufficient level of development of cognitive processes. One of the most important cognitive processes is attention and thinking. Any activity (both mental and physical) assumes that the person first pays attention to it and only then begins the process of learning. The process of cognition involves the work of thinking. The authors note that on the basis of the processes of attention and thinking, it becomes possible to know the surrounding world, acquire new knowledge, form skills, competencies, and enrich the inner world. A person has the ability to identify the causes of certain events, discover new, previously unknown, sides of the studied object, as well as formulate conclusions, anticipate the course of events, change and improve practice.
