TO THE QUESTION OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF CREATIVE ABILITIES OF THE YOUNGER STUDENT

Abstract: the article provides an acmeological analysis of the ideas of modern psychologists and teachers on the subject of developing the creative abilities of a younger student in various types of activities available to him. The authors focus on the role of the leading activity of the younger student in the development of creativity. And they logically separate the concepts of creative thinking, creativity, creative work and creative abilities. The main problems that hinder the development of creative abilities and argue that the sensitive period for their development falls on the early school age are prescribed. The authors see the main reason for the inhibitory development of the studied abilities in lack of freedom, which is brought by the individual discipline and new conditions of activity-study. The psychological resources of the individual are diverted to the process of adaptation and socialization in the new school environment and slow down the development of creative abilities. They come to the conclusion that free training in elementary school, without restrictions in movement and ways of expressing one’s thoughts, will lead to the development of the ability to be creative.
