The article considers the possibility of using the innovative method of education in the traditional form of education. The relevance of this study is associated with the increasing aggressiveness and a decrease in moral consciousness among junior schoolchildren. The results of the developmental learning experiment are described, which included: a purposeful system of exercises with the use of the game simulation method, the combination of educational activities at off-hour and extracurricular activities with the mandatory inclusion of mini-situations of moral orientation. The stages of classes are described in detail: organizational, practical, communicative, and educational ones. The article shows that special attention is paid to the methods of organizing game simulation, as well as to reading of texts with emphasis on interpretation, since misunderstanding of the meaning can cause tension which may result in conflict. The study confirms the effectiveness of the method described; the lessons contribute to the development of cooperation skills, the sustainable priority of observing moral norms of behavior, and the development of moral consciousness. Recommendations for specialists are suggested.
