The inner world of young pupils is constantly dynamic, their flexible thinking is agile, their imagination is vivid, in other words, it is an extremely miraculous mirror. It is not right to view it superficially. Every mystery must be revealed in accordance with their inner world, language and sphere of interest. Vibrant lives should be intertwined through mass events of various natures. The questions and tasks posed should create a favorable stimulus for effective learning. Interest in life and reality must be awakened in learners. According to great philosophers and educators, every child is a personality. The development of personality is the primary function set before society. This is demanded by the state, people and nation from every parent, educator and citizen. From this perspective, the problem of instilling ethical and moral values in young pupils is extremely relevant. Since education always serves the state it belongs to, its content changes as the demands of the time evolve. Along with this, mass events take on a form that corresponds to the demands of the era, characterized by innovations in content. Now, the task facing pedagogical collectives is to raise well-prepared individuals for independent Azerbaijan. One way to achieve this is by properly and efficiently organizing pupils' free time. It would be a mistake to think that mass events only contribute to upbringing. No, they are also a teaching tool that imparts knowledge and skills. Therefore, mass events prepared in connection with relevant instructional material, real-life events and historical moments essentially serve as an educational tool that enriches the pedagogical process, providing learners with both intellectual and moral satisfaction, keeping them positively engaged with the school and shaping their personalities. In society, the development of the humanities intensifies efforts to expand and explore directions that will qualitatively enhance new ethical and moral foundations. In this regard, significant qualitative changes should also be made in the development of the humanities, education, upbringing in Azerbaijan, moving away from outdated ideas, ineffective, formulaic thinking and plagiarism-driven works. In other words, forming a human from a human is about shaping the content of education that enables future generations to be raised in the spirit of humanity, to elevate their ethical and moral values and to open doors for them. Thus, the optimal organization of education and upbringing aimed at ethics and morality provides great strength for the deep assimilation of all components of moral qualities based on scientific foundations and a well-thought-out system. For this, understanding the essence of the problem, studying curricula and textbooks, pedagogical literature, and school practices, exploring learners' potential capabilities, improving teaching methods and techniques and considering the microenvironment (family, school, radio, television, etc.) must be taken into account in determining the influence on the individual's morality and intellectual level in order to solve the problem
