Tutor Support for the Formation of Research Skills of Primary School Students

The article suggests pedagogical conditions that contribute to the formation of research skills among elemen-tary school students with the help of tutor support, namely, the development of a model of tutor support and individual educational routes for the research activities of elementary school students. In the course of the re-search, the conditions for the correct organization of tutor support for elementary school students in the frame-work of the educational process, the stages of the tutor support model, and diagnostic tools were formed. Based on the experiment, it was found that the proposed model of tutor support made it possible to increase the formation of research skills among 4th grade students. The levels of “medium” and “high” reached 93 % compared to 71 % in the control group. This confirms the expediency of integrating tutor support into the educa-tional process of primary schools for the successful development of research skills.
