The article reveals the relevance of the problem of psychological and pedagogical support for the emo-tional development of primary schoolchildren in an educational environment. The authors conducted a study on the basis of one of the schools in the Kranodar region, in which 41 2nd grade students took part. The methods which were used are: the “Unfinished Stories” method by T. P. Gavrilova, the face scale of P. S. Smith et al., the “Emotional Intelligence Test” method by D. V. Lyusin, the “Story Pictures” method by R. R. Kalinina, the “Three Wishes” method by L. I. Bozhovich, the method of studying volitional activity by N. A. Tsyrkun. The completed study confirmed the hypothesis about the possibility of purposefully organizing conditions for the emotional development of primary schoolchildren. It has been proven that with the implementation of a specially organized system of psychologically oriented activities, more successful emotional development of children occurs as a complex personal formation, including cognitive, affective and behavioral aspects.
