Abstract

The article highlights the problem of preparing future primary school teachers for the junior schoolchildren’s speech development with general language underdevelopment. The peculiarities of the manifestation of general underdevelopment of language in younger schoolchildren are considered, and the place and peculiarities of the preparation of future primary school teachers for this work are determined. The concept of “general underdevelopment of language” is revealed. The analysis revealed the general underdevelopment of the speech of students of grades 1‒4. It has been established that in three to four years of study, children with general underdevelopment of the language can master the language at a sufficient level and acquire more or less formed language skills (pronunciation, vocabulary).It has been proven that the work on the development of the language activity of such children is carried out more effectively if the primary school teacher joins in solving this problem, since he communicates with them throughout the school day, as well as outside of school hours.The Standard of Higher Education in specialty 013 “Elementary Education” of the first (bachelorʼs) level of higher education, the curriculum for the training of future primary school teachers was analyzed. It was revealed that the training of future primary school teachers is provided by general humanitarian, socio-economic, mathematical, natural science disciplines, as well as general professional and subject training disciplines. Possibilities of training future teachers for the development of language activities of younger schoolchildren, in particular with children who have general language underdevelopment based on the integration approach, have been established. An integrated interdisciplinary program was created to increase the effectiveness of training future primary school teachers for the development of language activities of younger schoolchildren with general language underdevelopment, which involves the integration of methodical, pedagogical,psychological, speech therapy knowledge.We see the prospect of further investigations in the disclosure of the features of the professional activity of a primary school teacher in the development of speech activity of younger schoolchildren with general language underdevelopment.
