For primary school students, the language learning process is important not only for mastering grammatical knowledge, but also for the formation of oral and written speech. This article analyzes in detail the issue of developing students' speech potential through working on the text.

The text is a didactic tool that serves as a basis for students' free expression of their oral and written thoughts, as well as for the construction of figurative and logical speech. Therefore, in the primary education system, working on the basis of the text is an integral component of the teaching process and plays a special role in developing students' speech.

The article also shows the importance of the criteria for selecting the text, namely, age appropriateness, vocabulary, artistic and moral content. By working on the basis of the text, students increase their language skills, consciously master grammatical units, and strive to express their thoughts independently. This develops their general thinking, analytical and critical thinking skills.
