METHODOLOGY FOR IMPLEMENTING A TEXT-CENTRIC APPROACH IN THE UKRAINIAN LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE LESSONS IN SECONDARY EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS BASED ON INTEGRATED LEARNING

Abstract

The article theoretically substantiates the features of the implementation of a text-centric approach in the language and literature field on the basis of integrated learning. The specifics of using a literary text as a component of the formation of students’ linguistic, literary and value competencies are analyzed. The scientific work presents integrated lessons of the Ukrainian language and literature on the study of a literary text – the story “Hatiko’s Loyalty” by Maria Morozenko according to the program of the National Secondary School in grade 5. The work is considered as a source of knowledge about content and form, as a basis for literary and linguistic analysis and as a means of forming aesthetic feelings. The methodology for analyzing the text at the level of content and linguistic means is disclosed, taking into account the textcentric approach, in particular, the stages of organizing work with the text: before reading (motivation, prediction, problem statement), during reading (analysis, interpretation, language exercises), after reading (generalization, creative tasks, integration with other subjects). The development of integrated lessons on the development of speech is presented: creating an oral story-continuation of the work and writing an essay about one’s impressions of the story. Integrated tasks are outlined, aimed at mastering knowledge about the literary and linguistic analysis of the work, at forming the skills to express one’s own thoughts and emotions about what has been read; creating one’s own texts (oral/written) based on a literary text. The peculiarities of the relationship between the informative (theme, idea, plot) function of the text and the aesthetic function, which is manifested in the form of a literary work (genre, artistic means), are revealed. The authors demonstrated that the combination of literary and linguistic analysis in integrated lessons ensures the integrity of the educational process and contributes to the formation of communicative, emotionalvalue and creative competencies of students.
