INTRODUCTION

General articulation of the issue and its relevance to important scientific or practical tasks. In the current conditions of education development in Ukraine, there is a reassessment of education professionals' methodological work. New models of methodological assistance that meet the demands of modern society are gradually being developed. New directions and forms are taking place, the content is qualitatively changing, and there is a tendency of this activity being variable and multilevel depending on educational institutions' requests and preparedness. In general, the teacher's methodological training is the process and result of mastering the system of methodological knowledge, skills and abilities and preparedness for their implementation in professional activity. The organization of methodological activities is an important factor in preschool teachers' professional development and is one of the ways of education reforming according to the Laws of Ukraine «On Education»» [1], «On Preschool Education» [2], «Basic component of pre-school education in Ukraine» [3] and other regulatory documents.

At the heart of methodological activities, there are scientific achievements and pedagogical experience. It is a complex system of interrelated activities aimed at improving the preschool teacher and the whole pedagogical staff's qualification and professional skills.

Methodological competence determines the ability and readiness for purposeful, systematic activity in performing professional tasks and solving problems. Independently chosen learned thinking and working methods or strategies are applied and improved for solving job-related problems and tasks. Methodological activity also covers independent organization and assessment requiring the teacher's personal commitment and creativity as well as the definition of the main objectives of this activity type organization in preschool institutions.

The analysis of recent research and publications considering the aspects of the investigated problem and serving as a basis for the author's conclusions; defining uninvestigated parts of general matters. As a component of professional pedagogical competence, methodological competence is the object of interest in the papers by V. A. Adolf [4], N. V. Kuzmina [5], A. K. Markova [6]. As V. A. Adolf notes, methodological competence is «an expanded system of knowledge on the specific construction for teaching a particular discipline». Along with the cognitive component, the scientist distinguishes the activity and personal components of methodological competence in the context of pedagogical activity. According to N. V. Kuzmina, methodical competence is defined as one of the basic elements in the teacher's professional competence and includes competence in the methods of students' knowledge, and skills formation. A. K. Markova allocates a block of personal characteristics

in the structure of professional competence. It provides a mastery of professional knowledge and skills by a teacher. Some aspects of methodological competence are defined in the studies by T. N. Gushchina [7] and I. A. Zimnia [8]. Methodical competence is considered as a special competence implementing the basic and key competences regarding the specificity of professional pedagogical activity. Competent teacher has a good teaching methodology, clearly defines his attitude to different methodological systems, and has his own individual style of activity in the methodology. I. A. Knyazheva's research [9] is devoted to the formation of teachers' methodological culture. The improvement of teachers' scientific and methodological competence in professional activity was in the scope of A. M. Bogush's papers [10]. L. M. Mitin [11] and N. M. Murovan [12] investigate the problem of teachers' methodological training. Methodical activity organization issues are discussed by K. Yu. Bila [13], L. I. Illenko [14], K. L. Krutii [15], V. A. Slastonin [16] and others. K. Yu. Bila proposes the following goals of methodical work in the preschool education institution: the development of the most rational methods and techniques for teaching, upbringing and development of preschool children; raising the level of the teacher's general didactic and methodological readiness to organize and conduct the educational process; experience exchange between the teaching staff members. L. I. Ilienko defines the principles of methodical work organization, which contribute to the achievement of its key goal - the professional activity improvement. K. L. Krutii reveals the main task of methodical work - the creation of such educational space in the institution, where the creative potential of the teaching staff and every subject in particular would be fully implemented.

Despite a number of research papers, the problem of preschool teachers' methodological training on the basis of the competence-based approach as well as the organization of methodological activities in pre-school institutions remain urgent and need further research and substantiation.

METHODOLOGY

The methodological basis of the study is the psychological and pedagogical provisions on the subject-subject interaction specifics; the theory of personality and its development in the education and upbringing process; methodological provisions on the systematic study of pedagogical phenomena and processes.

The article purpose statement (setting objectives). The paper aims to consider the purpose, principles, functions, methods, and to determine the task of organizing methodological activities in pre-school institutions in the context of preschool teachers' professional development.

Problem statement. The main objectives of the study were analysis of the main methodical activity directions in the preschool education institution in the context of raising

the professional level of educators, defining the tasks of the organization and the content of methodical work in the preschool education institution.

Methods, techniques and technologies used. The implementation of the purpose and objectives of the study involved the application of the following universal methods of scientific research: analysis, synthesis, classification, generalization; study and generalization of work experience of teachers in preschool education institutions for substantiation of methodical bases of development of teachers' methodical competence; theoretical substantiation and creation of a system of work on the development of preschool teachers' methodological competence.

RESULTS

Statement of basic materials with a comprehensive substantiation of the obtained scientific results. Methodological competence development involves mastering practical activity methods aimed at meeting an individual's needs of a high priority for the given professional group. The increased level of needs as a result of professiogenesis, that is, the teacher's professional becoming and development, brings about the improvement of existing and the development of new innovative activity methods and, accordingly, an increase in the methodological competence level.

Methodological work in a preschool institution is a systematic collective and individual activity of pedagogical staff aimed at increasing its scientific-theoretical, cultural level as well as the level of psychological-pedagogical training and professional skills [17].

The purpose of organizing methodological work in the pre-school institution is to create optimal conditions for continuing improvement of the level of educational process participants' general and educational culture.

According to K. L. Krutii, the main task of methodological work is to create such an educational environment in an institution where the creative potential of the teaching staff and every subject, in particular, would be fully realized [15]. The review of methodological work with staff, educational process scientific and methodological support, and the creation of a new development environment is one of the important tasks of the preschool institution's innovative development [18]. That is why the general goal of methodological work lies in education quality assurance and continuing education system development for an educational institution teaching staff. It is determined by methodological work principles among which the leading ones are the principles of education democratization and humanization.

The main goal is to assist preschool teachers and the whole teaching staff in their professional competence upgrading and development to achieve good results in their teaching activities.

To achieve this goal, it is necessary to identify the initial level of teachers' professional training, and then formulate a goal, plan and organize methodological work with them.

In general terms, methodological work objectives are formulated by V. A. Slastonin: formation of innovative orientation in teaching staff's activity which is manifested in the systematic study, generalization and spreading of pedagogical experience, in the work on the implementation of pedagogical science achievements; raising the level of teachers' theoretical and psychological training; inquiries into new educational programs, curricula, state educational standards; investigation of new normative documents, guidance materials; providing advisory assistance to teachers in self-education [16].

The following are the principles of methodological work organization contributing to the achievement of its key goal - improving professional activity (according to L. I. Illienko [14]):

- relevance, unity of theory and practice involving the practical implementation of the law «On education», taking into account modern societal demands for education, orientation to the child's social significance in today's difficult living conditions as well as pressing challenges for specific

teaching staff;

- scientific character aimed at bringing the system of teachers' training to the conformity with modern scientific achievements in various fields;

- systematic character and complexity in terms of which methodological work is considered as an integral system which depends on the unity of objectives, content, purpose, forms and methods of working with educators as well as the unity and interconnection of all parties and directions of teachers' professional development;

- goal orientation, consistency, succession, continuity, a mass character, and collectivity involving the methodological work transformation into a part of the continuing education system, full teachers engagement into various forms of methodological work throughout the academic year;

- creation of favorable working conditions - moral, psychological, sanitary, the availability of free time for the teacher's creative activity;

- efficiency, flexibility, mobility and an individual approach requiring methodologists to be able to quickly receive and transfer educational information, taking into account the educational institution educators' individual characteristics;

- creativity implying the creative nature of methodological work, the creation of a methodological work system in a preschool institution;

- continuing teachers' self-education, qualified assistance provision both in theoretical and in practical matters; improving teaching effectiveness.

A special place in the methodological work of the preschool institution is given to the principle of providing an individualized differentiated approach to educators' pedagogical activity. In modern conditions, methodological work with staff should be built on a diagnostic basis, taking into account each teacher's needs.

The implementation of methodological work, which is defined as individually-oriented, allows developing teaching staff's initiative and creativity by involving everyone in an active professional activity.

When formulating the methodological work objectives of a preschool institution, a group of its interrelated functions should be singled out.

The functions of methodological work from the standpoint of education system hierarchical levels (A. M. Moiseieva and O. M. Masovyi) are defined as: the functions of methodological work in relation to advanced pedagogical experience, pedagogical science in general - to the national education system; the functions of methodological work in relation to the educational institution's pedagogical staff; functions of methodological work in relation to a particular teacher [12].

P. I. Tretiakov considers the functions of methodological work through managerial tasks: information and analytical, motivational and target-oriented, planning and prognostic, organizational and executive, control and evaluation, regulatory and corrective [18].

The content of the methodological work is also considered in terms of the main functions:

1) the functions of methodological work in relation to the educational institution's pedagogical staff:

- improving pedagogical activity;

- updating educational process software;

- pedagogical staff s introduction to pedagogical science and practice achievements;

- implementation of advanced pedagogical experience in pre-school institutions.

2) the functions of methodological work in relation to a particular teacher:

- research on the level of preschool teachers' professional training, identification of teachers' problems and professional needs;

- organization of work on boosting teachers' professional growth: enhancement of social and psychological culture; improvement of special skills; knowledge of human and national culture.

Methodological work is defined as the process of teach-

ers' professionalism development which should be considered through internal and external factors. External factors are socio-cultural environment and the education system where it is necessary to take into account the current educational situation. Internal factors include the following: teachers' self-cultivation, self-education and self-development in accordance with the requirements of state standards.

There are several types of methodological activities: research, experimental, and corrective (according to S. Zh. Honcharova). The research type provides innovative processes, the experimental type ensures the transition from the development mode to the mode of functioning, the correction one facilitates functioning [15].

Priority methodological work directions as well-organized activity methods on the achievement of goals are methodological, scientific-methodological, didactic educational process support as well as the creation of optimal conditions for interaction of all participants in the educational process.

The most widespread is the following classification of methods:

1) according to the ways of information presentation: verbal (oral, printed), visual (illustration and demonstration methods), practical (workshops, trainings);

2) according to the degree of independence in knowledge acquisition: reproductive, partially-searching, searching, research;

3) according to the way of knowledge acquisition: explanatory-illustrative, programmed, heuristic, problem- and model- based.

In the first case, methods similar to those used in working with preschoolers are more commonly used.

However, in order to organize activities to improve preschool teachers' professional competence, the most appropriate ones are the methods given in the second and third groups. At the same time, new, nontraditional, interactive methods of work with the pre-school institutions' pedagogical staff are being increasingly applied - they enable to simultaneously solve learning and cognitive, communicative and orientation tasks due to the opportunity to organize educational communicative environment facilitating the professional knowledge and skill acquisition.

The competence-based approach allows to consider the development of preschool teachers' methodological competence as a gradual process of acquiring knowledge, practical skills of organizing methodological work in a preschool institution and the experience of emotional and value-based attitude to the teaching subject and methods that meet preschoolers' needs and the post-industrial society's requirements to the teacher's personality [19, 20, 21].

The creation of effective conditions for preschool teachers' professional development and children's continuing holistic development, the quality of interaction with the family determine the main methodological work objectives:

1. Teaching staff's training and development, as well as its skill enhancement management.

2. Finding out, research, generalization and spreading of the best teachers' pedagogical experience.

3. Methodological support development for its implementation in an educational process.

2. Activity coordination between preschool institutions and the family aimed at children's continuing holistic development.

3. Coordination of preschool institutions' actions with other institutions to ensure children's development as well as the institution's progress in general.

4. Analysis of performance quality in order to create the conditions for ensuring positive changes in preschoolers' personality development through improving teachers' professional competence.

CONCLUSIONS

Conclusions and directions for future research. In summary, the main objectives of organizing methodological work in pre-school institutions are the following: boosting teachers' professional and cultural level; improvement of the 8

methods and styles of interaction with children based on the principles of humanization and democratization; upgrading educators' skills in organizing children's creative, research and independent activity; developing skills in the analysis of the educational process as a whole and self-reflection on one's own efficiency; involvement of educators in research activities based on innovative methods. The content of methodological work in preschool institutions is determined according to particular objectives. It also has to be taken into account educational process outcomes, teachers' qualification and staff morale. The work is conducted in the following areas: educational - educators' professional development in theoretical aspects and mastering modern methods of interaction with children; didactic - gaining knowledge on improving preschool education efficiency; psychological - conducting classes in psychology (general, developmental, pedagogical); physiological - conducting classes in physiology and hygiene; technical - the educator should be able to apply information and communication technologies in their work; self-educational - reading special literature, attending seminars on relevant topics. Much attention is paid to such a pedagogical activity type consisting in development: preparation and implementation of training and education programs, modeling of situations and events developing the child's emotional and value sphere, creation of a psychologically dangerous and comfortable educational environment.

From our perspective, directions for future research on this issue lie in scientifically implement of children's education, upbringing and development goals. The variety of methodological work objectives and directions in preschool institutions requires the selection of the most effective interaction forms with teaching staff.
