Methodology for Teaching Third Graders to Distinguish and Compose Monologue Texts of Different Types

Using the example of conducting a Russian language lesson in the third grade, the article reveals the methodology of forming the ability of younger students to independently construct monologue texts. The author has demonstrated the effectiveness of using a set of methodological techniques that contribute to the development of students’ ability to analyze and distinguish between texts of different types: narration, description, reasoning. This allows third graders to create their own texts, taking into account the characteristics of the type to which they belong. Taking into account the tendency of primary school children to play, research activities and dialogue with peers, the teacher offers them didactic play, educational dialogue and discussion during the lesson.
