Abstract

This article comprehensively examines the theoretical and practical aspects of using various teaching methods in natural sciences education in primary school (grades 1–4). It analyzes traditional, interactive, project-based, STEAM, didactic game-based, and innovative methods within the framework of the integrated “Natural Sciences” (SCIENCE) curriculum introduced in the Republic of Uzbekistan starting from the 2021–2022 academic year. The article demonstrates the effectiveness of these methods in developing students’ research skills, logical thinking, observation abilities, and ecological responsibility. Practical examples, advantages and disadvantages of the methods, as well as challenges specific to the Uzbekistani context are also discussed.
