SOME ELEMENTS OF THE THEORY OF PROBABILITY IN TEACHING MATHEMATICS IN THE PRIMARY SCHOOL

The article discusses the prerequisites for including problems with elements of probability theory in mathematical education in grades 1-4. These types of assignments, as a rule, are not included in the compulsory curriculum for mathematics in elementary school, but they can be used in compulsory, additional and additional education classes, creating conditions for the implementation of developmental education. Some theoretical provisions of the theory of probability related to the tasks included in the built and tested methodological system of work are systematized. Some of its characteristics are presented
