Creative Attitudes of 3rd and 4th Formers

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the main results of the research into the creative attitudes of school learners of 3rd and 4* forms. On the basis of the creative as-signments presented during the lessons of language education, the willingness or unwillingness of school learners to choose creative activity is discussed, the reasons for such behaviour are analysed and the behaviour of children, having received a creative assignments, is described. The research data are compared to the results of the analogous research into the creative attitudes of 1st and 2nd formers. The processing of the research results revealed that the positive creative attitudes were demonstrated by the majority of the 3rd and 4* formers in the research. This corresponds to the research results observed among younger primary school learners. The most essential difference was observed regarding negative creative attitudes: about 40 % of the learners from 3rd and 4* forms demonstrated negative attitudes towards creative assignments. Moreover, a considerably smaller proportion of senior primary school learners express undetermined creative attitudes compared to 1st and 2nd formers. (36 % of 1st and 2nd formers with undetermined creative attitudes as compared to and 8 % of such learners from 3rd and 4* forms). This can be explained by a more extensive creative experience of senior primary learners. The article focuses on the change in creative attitudes, approach to creation and behaviour having received a creative assignment of children from different forms. It has been observed that the tendencies of change in creative attitudes of primary children are of positive character: the biggest number of children demonstrating positive attitude towards creation are among 4* formers. Negative creative attitudes prevail among 3rd formers
