The effective ways of implementing an active type of students’ studying at the institutions of general secondary education in the process of learning the word-formation of the Ukrainian language are outlined in the article. The practical and theoretical vectors of linguistic methodology of the basic school are analyzed in view of the functions of word-formation in communicatively oriented mastering of the language at all stages of linguistic education. The methodical reference points in the working out of theoretical and pragmatic aspects of the mentioned problem are substantiated. It is proved that the studying of word-formation at the Ukrainian language lessons should be constructed not as teaching, learning and reproduction of the theory, but as an understanding of the structure of the word, the formation of stable studentsэ skills to distinguish the word forms and the single-rooted words, the development of students’ skills to use dictionaries (word-building and morphemic) and knowledge of the word structure and word-formation to improve spelling skills. The realization of various types of exercises (for example, the selection of single-rooted words; exercises combined with lexical work and the development of coherent speech of students), various didactic games, teacher's answers to the students' questions, elements of the “brain attacks” is programmed during the studying of the word-formation at the Ukrainian language lessons. Proposed by us technique of the active methods during the studying of the word-formation at the Ukrainian language lessons is not the mastering of individual words, forms of words, concepts, but the assimilation of the system of rules that is carried out through the mental processes of attention, memory, imagination, perception, thinking, etc., which serve as a basis for constructing a sentence, a statement and communication situations in the future.
