Modern technologies for teaching primary school students how to solve problems with proportional quantities

the article discusses the use of modern technologies in teaching younger students to solve problems with proportional quantities. The study of mathematics in elementary grades is the most relevant topic of modern education. Difficulties in learning mathematics, including difficulties in solving text problems with proportional quantities, are experienced by many children in all primary schools of the country. The ability to solve textual mathematical problems and work with proportional quantities is prescribed in the Federal State Educational Standard. At the same time, solving such problems requires children to have logical and abstract thinking, an understanding of the quantities that they have to work with in the process of solving problems, and the ability to plan their actions, since such tasks are solved in several stages. In order to effectively master the concepts of various quantities and their interrelationship, planned training is needed during the first two years of study, and then high-quality technology for mastering various ways of solving text problems with proportional quantities. Modern technologies for teaching younger schoolchildren how to solve problems with proportional quantities require high-quality professional training from teachers, the ability to explain to children the relationship between quantities and the ability to systematize the information provided, which will contribute to the preparation of an internal action plan for solving problems of this type. The purpose of the study is to identify effective methods and approaches that contribute to a better understanding and assimilation of the material by students. The research objectives include analyzing existing teaching methods, identifying the difficulties faced by younger students in solving problems with proportional quantities, as well as identifying the most effective approaches. Practical application of the research results may include the use of developed methods and approaches in the work of primary school teachers, the creation of teaching materials and manuals, as well as the organization of additional classes and clubs in mathematics using modern technologies.
