“GRANDMA’S LESSONS” ABOUT THE “WORLD” PICTURE OR A META-SUBJECT APPROACH TO TEACHING NATIVE (TUVAN) LITERATURE

Abstract

The article describes the potential of traditional folk pedagogy as an optimal model of training and education, which allows waking children’s initiative, individuality and cognitive interest in modern life. The focus is on purposefully providing systematic work in the organization of methods of teaching native literature through a mata- disciplinary approach to teaching and ethno-cultural perception of the material. The author, using her experience, describes the “grandmother’s lessons” – the Tuvan traditional system of education, as one of the possible methods that can become an appropriate response to the solution of non-standard, problematic tasks of the educational process. The study of artistic works in the national-historical context requires a purposeful revision not so much of the content of education, but of existing approaches to increasing student’s interest in reading, aimed at forming a child’s worldview and civic position. The work studies the development of children’s cognitive aspirations, problem presentation of the studied material, critical thinking technologies, search and research methods of teaching. The topic of observing the moral norms of human behavior was also touched upon: the ability to look at people and existing life situations ambiguously and without templates.
