Many primary education programs, including the updated educational program in Kazakhstan, involve the creation and implementation of thematic units to prepare younger students for research activities. This approach is reflected in the integrated method of teaching and learning in primary classes. However, in cases where the research-based pedagogical approach is not used, it has become an urgent problem because it cannot meet the interest of students. Therefore, this article intends to study theoretical works on the preparation of primary school students for research, conduct experimental work on a small experimental site, and consider specific results. In theoretical terms, such works as content analysis, synthesis, generalization, survey, and diagnostics were organized. Analyzing the experimental work on the stages of identification and formation. Based on methodological materials to prepare students for research, we offer percentages.
This study aimed to create students’ research skills by solving problems in teaching mathematics in primary school classes and was designed according to this purpose. In this context, it is aimed to conduct a study on teaching mathematics to primary school students. The research was created and implemented in the 2021–2022 spring academic year. 296 primary school students voluntarily participated in the research. In the research, problem-solving training in mathematics teaching was given to the students participating in the study in the form of a 2-week online education. To collect data in the study, the ‘mathematics and problem-solving’ data collection tool, which was developed by the researchers and whose validity and reliability were obtained, was used. The data collection tool used in the research was delivered and collected by the online method. The analysis of the data was made by using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences programme, frequency analysis and t-test, and the results were added to the research in the presence of tables. As a result of the research, it is seen that primary school students’ problem-solving situations improved with mathematics teaching and they enjoyed these methods and achieved positive results. Keywords: Primary school students, teaching mathematics, problem-solving, distance education;
The purpose of this research is to develop speaking activities for primary school students and to get teachers’ opinions on the scientific methodological foundations of language teaching. The participant group of the research consists of 55 primary schoolteachers who are teaching in various primary schools in the city of Almaty, Kazakhstan, in the 2021–2022 academic year. The research was designed according to the phenomenological method, one of the qualitative research methods. Research data were collected with a semi-structured interview form developed by the researchers. As a result of the research, the majority of primary schoolteachers who participated in the research stated that the language skills and speaking skills of the students were partially sufficient. The majority of teachers categorised the methods they applied for the effectiveness of the language education they gave to the students as using different methods, techniques and materials, if there were a problem, giving the students keywords before the speaking activity, enabling the students to develop ideas and asking the students to tell the parts that were interesting to them after the listening activity. The suggestions of the primary schoolteachers participating in the research on establishing the scientific methodological foundations of language teaching by developing speaking activities were mostly categorised as gaining critical speaking skills, providing speaking skills with games, providing speaking skills with different methods and techniques and creating practices that eliminate speaking anxiety in students. Keywords: Language skills, speaking skills, primary school students, teachers’ opinions;
