Introduction. The task of every Mathemat- ics teacher is to get interested the pupils in Mathematics, to show its beauty, and to help in liking it. One of the means for raising pupils’ motivation and interest in learning Mathematics as a science is a well-organized teaching process, which includes new interesting methods and technologies. Nowadays implementation of the computer technologies in the teaching process is an inseparable part of learning Mathematics. By means of them teachers will be able not only to efficiently present educational material, but also to show the pupils various possibilities of Mathematics. The purpose is to prove the necessity of using information-communication technologies (ICT), namely Google services at the Mathematics lessons; to discover the influ- ence of ICT on the pupils’ creative development, their attention and cognitive activity; to define the teaching recommendations concerning application of ICT in learning Mathematics. Methods. Empirical and theoretical methods were used. Results. At present the efficiency of ICT usage at the Mathematics lessons also depends on using various Internet resources, in particular online services. The developed mathematical site is an opportunity to involve pupils and teachers to interactive cooperation. Under the conditions of the distance learning it is rather useful for raising motivation to learning Mathematics and improving the conditions of the pupils’ independent studying as well as a teacher’s control over this activity. Originality. The article deals with the peculiarities of ICT usage on the basis of the Google services in teaching Mathematics. It discovers the efficiency of ICT usage at the Mathematics lessons at school and their influence on the pupils’ formation of skills and abilities to correctly use Google services while studying Mathematics. The author also describes the ways and particular methods for using the technologies at the Mathematics lessons. Conclusion. In general, information-communication technologies in teaching Mathematics, namely Google services, are a useful and productive teaching technology due to interactivity, flexibility and integration of various types of multimedia educational information and also due to the possibility to take into account the pupils’ individual peculiarities. Usage of ICT while teaching Mathematics forms the higher level of the pupils’ self-educational skills and abilities, analysis and structuring of the obtained information. Meanwhile the new teaching means allow to naturally combine the information-communication technologies and personal-orientation technologies with the methods of creative and searching activity. Due to this technology it is possible to move the teaching of Mathematics to the higher level.
