Abstract
Introduction: the article deals with the problem of implementation of the competence approach in teaching mathematics in primary school. This approach is one of the conceptual foundations of the Federal state educational standard of primary General education. Competency-oriented tasks are included in the final work for the fourth grade to assess the achievement of the planned results, including the all-Russian verification work in mathematics. The aim of the study was to identify the effectiveness of the implementation of the competence approach in teaching mathematics in primary school based on the diagnosis of the level of formation of primary school graduates (pupils of 5 classes) the ability to solve competency-oriented mathematical tasks.
Materials and methods: the diagnostic technique was used, including mathematical tasks that require the use of knowledge in life situations, the presence of real ideas about the values and geometric shapes, the ability to navigate in practical situations. The texts of competency-oriented tasks are given.
Results: the data on the results of all groups of tasks and the level of formation of primary school graduates ability to solve competency-oriented mathematical tasks Revealed that the greatest difficulty is caused by tasks that require self-selection of mathematical concepts and actions for the analysis of the real situation, and tasks involving the ability to do the estimate of the result.
Discussion and Conclusions: the study showed that there are problems in the implementation of the competence approach in teaching mathematics in primary. Students have significant difficulties in solving competency-oriented tasks. The analysis of typical errors in the performance of such mathematical tasks is performed. The recommendations for primary school teachers to strengthen the practical orientation of teaching mathematics to junior schoolchildren.
