The content of the article reveals the relevance of this process, its timeliness, in the conditions of increasing risks caused by the peculiarities of the modern society development due to globalization, informatization, technologization. In addition, the need to examine this problem is due to the psychological, pedagogical and age-related prerequisites for the development of children of primary school age. The purpose of the study is a theoretical study of the problem of pedagogical support for the emotional development of primary school children. The methodological approaches that served as the basis for considering the problem of pedagogical support for the emotional development of primary school children are: humanistic, personality-oriented, systemic activity-oriented approaches. The article describes the age characteristics of the emotional development of primary school students (impressionability, spontaneity, frankness of feelings expression, emotional instability, little experience in recognizing emotional states in other people and in themselves, etc.). As a result, the essence of the "emotions", "support" and "pedagogical support" concepts was clarified. In the modern primary school, pedagogical support for the emotional development of the student, as noted by the researchers, takes on new meanings, based on the idea that the implementation of any activity is ensured by the coherence of functioning, the unity of the intellectual and emotional spheres. The theoretical and practical significance of the study correlates with the requirements outlined in the provisions of the Federal State Educational Standard of Primary General Education, which indicate the need to search for directions, forms, methods of pedagogical support for primary school students, expanding the range of subjects participating in the process of emotional development of students (parents, teachers, classmates, peers), organized with taking into account such principles as targeting, personalization, timeliness, consistency, etc.
