METHODS TO IMPROVE CREATIVE THINKING OF STUDENTS IN THE PROCESS OF TEACHING MATHEMATICS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL

The article considers the problem of the possibility of forming heuristic activity of students by means of solving mathematical tasks in the process of teaching mathematics in the primary grades. The author believes that along with the standard tasks in the process of learning mathematics in the primary grades, the solution of non-standard tasks, which will stimulate the development of creative thinking, will lead to the development of logical thinking in the right direction and strengthen the cognitive activity. In addition, the article considers the connection of heuristics with other sciences, such as philosophy, psychology, pedagogy, logic, neurophysiology and the interdisciplinary field of knowledge located at the junction of mathematics and the use of this method as an essential tool in solving non-standard problems in elementary schools.
