This article comprehensively examines the content, objectives, and modern methods of teaching elements of informatics in primary school education. Special attention is given to the development of algorithmic thinking, information processing skills, and digital literacy among young learners. The study substantiates the importance of implementing innovative pedagogical technologies, including interactive teaching methods, didactic games, and modern information and communication technologies. It is shown that effective organization of the learning process based on the integration of informatics with other subjects contributes to the holistic development of students. The results confirm that the use of modern approaches increases students’ cognitive activity, interest in learning, and independent thinking skills. The article also provides practical recommendations for improving teaching methodology and organizing lessons more effectively. The presented materials can serve as a methodological guide for primary school teachers.
