Taking into account the age characteristics of primary school students, effective methods for developing their communication skills in English are recommended. Also, specific methodological recommendations are given for the formation of functional literacy of students in the modern education system, and ways to increase the effectiveness of education are proposed in integration with innovative technologies.
