DEVELOPMENT OF READING SKILLS IN ENGLISH BY USING AN INTERACTIVE WORKBOOK FOR BILINGUAL STUDENTS OF THE YAKUT SCHOOL

Abstract

The article reveals a problem of decreasing interest in reading among students of modern schools. The authors particularly consider how to develop reading skills in English in bilingual students through the use of an interactive workbook on extracurricular classes. The authors determine the importance of the principle of reliance on the native language when teaching a foreign language. Also, the pedagogical potential of interactive technologies is being revealed here. Based on the theoretical materials analyzed in the course of the study, an interactive workbook “LITigra” is being developed. This methodical manual contains literary works in English, their translations into the native languages of students, various exercises to consolidate new vocabulary and content, as well as a test work. At the end of the study, the results of experimental training conducted in order to identify the effectiveness of this technique are analyzed.
