Summary/Abstract: The topic is especially relevant now, when project-based learning appears as training of an individual nature. Presenting the teaching material, the teacher inserts his emotional and value assessments into the content of the subject. This is where the problem of developing children's creative thinking arises, and as a prerequisite for its implementation in practice - the removal of the dominant role of the teacher in the process of acquiring knowledge and experience. Any activity with children, including education, should be in accordance with their interests and needs, based on the personal experience of the child.
