Various aspects of finding effective means to achieve subject-specific learning outcomes are being explored in pedagogical science. The need to assimilate a large amount of information implies that students need to possess a range of skills related to strategies for searching, analyzing, evaluating, and using this information. We believe it's a good idea to organize lessons in primary school that focus on creating various information models for solving text problems, particularly tabular models. Modeling allows not only for effective assimilation of information but also for transforming it into new results. The aim of the study is to teach primary school students to solve text problems using table modeling, which facilitates the search for different ways to find the correct answer. An analysis of various points of view by scientists made it possible to identify the operational composition of modeling and present some aspects of methodological work in teaching primary school students to construct tabular models for tasks on proportional relationships between quantities. The following can be highlighted as methodological accents when working with children: the presence of three columns in the table, a specific sequence of values arrangement in the columns, the possibility of integrating the table and the drawing in the process of solving the problem, and the search for several solution methods (if they are possible). During the 2024–2025 academic year, an experimental study was conducted at educational institutions in Saransk and the Republic of Mordovia. The experiment, aimed at teaching primary school students, involved working on text problems using table modeling. The results of the experiment showed a positive trend in the development of primary school students' ability to solve text-based problems using table modeling and find different ways to provide correct answers. The theoretical significance of the study lies in the substantiation of the methodology for developing the skills of primary school students to construct an algorithm for presenting information in tabular form. The practical significance lies in the possibility of using the identified methodological aspects when organizing work with text problems in mathematics lessons in primary school.
