The results of experimental work on the formation of logical thinking in younger schoolchildren are identified and analyzed, and the necessary conditions for its successful development are indicated.

The article reveals the advantages of using modeling in teaching younger schoolchildren to solve text problems, which is given insufficient attention in teaching aids and school practice. Examples of tasks that can increase the skill of self-solving text problems using modeling, as well as finding various ways to solve non-standard tasks and tasks of increased difficulty are given.
