Using the example of a propaedeutic natural science course for primary schoolchildren, the principles of organizing a model environment for the formation of initial natural science concepts will be examined.

Participants will learn about:

• The problem of the deficit of natural science literacy among schoolchildren and the specific features of supporting its development in primary school.
• The possibilities for children to master molecular interpretation of simple physical phenomena in jointly distributed modeling.
• The role of model diagrams in forming the ability to "see the invisible" in the behavior of substances.
