Collections of essays on labor and moral education

For more than 10 years, a number of essays about labor and moral education written by I. S. Sinitsyn, following the example and approaches of A. S. Makarenko, have been processed and collected by the author in a number of books. Each subsequent collection, as a rule, includes the content of the previous one (sometimes with small literary editors) and essays about new teachers-ascetics.

Thus, in the first of the books listed below, only one (with all its remarkable) experience of the director of the Ulanovsky rural school of the Medynsky district of the Kaluga region, honored teacher of the RSFSR Sofia Petrovna Masonova (1915-1974) ^[3] and her associates, is described. The 1985 edition was supplemented with the essay “School of Golden Guys” - about the teacher of the Vyskaya Primary School ( Khvastovichsky district of the Kaluga region ), honored teacher of the RSFSR, Elena Nikolaevna Derunova (30.5.1906 - 9.11.1995) ^[4] , ^[5] , ^[6] ), by which he received the title and the entire collection. In the book “When Labor Brings Up”, the geography of the experience of the current author A.S. Makarenko is already expanding outside of Russia (the school of the USSR national teacher , the director of the Haldan secondary rural school complex Zagid Gamilovich Shoyubov in Azerbaijan and the whole district, including 13 schools, Ternopil region of Ukraine).
