Keywords:

This article reveals the features of didactic games as one of the means of
forming cognitive interest. The essence of the concept of cognitive interest is described. The
concept of didactic play, its essence and characteristics are determined. The role of didactic play
in the pedagogical education of children is investigated. Various methods and approaches are
described as an effective means of developing interest in mathematics. In the course of the game,
students successfully master mathematical ideas, concepts and develop the necessary skills. The
main components of the didactic game are shown. In my work, I show the importance of didactic
games in the pedagogical process using the example of the use of games in mathematics lessons
in grades 5 and 6. Before using the game in the classroom, it is necessary to take into account
the psychological characteristics of children of this age and what types of games are suitable for
this age.
