Abstract
The article deals with the peculiarities of formation of social behavior of schoolchildren, the importance of mechanisms of self-regulation of behavior. It is connected with a wide range of deviations, widespread in the modern school environment. The prevention of deviations is the main component in the formation of a stable life position of a personality. The development of schoolchildren’s social skills is an actual direction of socio-pedagogical work, as the main task of global competence formation is to increase the effectiveness of social skills and functional literacy of students. The aim of the article is to study the application of social and pedagogical technologies, in particular, the creation of a constructive environment as an important tool for shaping the social behavior of school students. The authors propose a training program for 6–10-year-old children to develop their social competence; a thematic plan of lessons with specific recommendations for their organization and implementation is given. The integrated use of methodological approaches (theory of individuality development, dispositions, situational theory, behavioral approach to the definition of deviant behavior) allowed the authors to devise methods to develop adaptive abilities and ensure social competence of personality through the development of self-regulation mechanisms.
