And yet, despite the spontaneity of development, the lack of a unified and coordinated policies, the majority of teachers rasssmatrivali school co-operatives as an excellent opportunity for the public education of children.
Live, direct experience has been to convince them of the benefits of collective work, comradely mutual assistance.
Working in co-op developed a childish amateur, activity, he became a form of school government.
Almost all co-operatives were a great cultural-mass work.
If you have created a variety of musical, dramatic, literary circles, the children with their own money to buy sports equipment, drums and flags for the Pioneer squad, seed beds for the school.
But here in the first place put not to strengthen the resources and education - because children acquire the necessary themselves, on their own, the proceeds of their labor money.
Keeping in mind that the "civilized co-operators" should be prepared, in the first years after the revolution of the Central Council issued a series of books for students, grouped into three series: "Bibliotechka young citizen," "Educating young citizen," "For a small and who co-operator."
A variety of aids prepared by teachers and education authorities.
The experience of co-operatives in Moscow operated a permanent exhibition of instructional materials, regularly held trade show production students.
In the RSFSR People's Commissariat consensus on how effective in the education of cooperatives, was not.
But it is the socio-pedagogical phenomenon has been studied carefully.
Krupskaya, for example, believed that a student's cooperation is necessary to bring the labor base, established in each school one or more production cooperatives.
In 1925 the school in co-operation "Krupskaya wrote:" Children can organize floral kurovodchesky, bookbinding, gardening, sewing and other cooperatives.
It is better that was not one, but several co-operatives, so that each student could choose it for everyone.
Essentially, these cooperatives are labor circles, only the work they will be business-like ...
In this circle, cooperative skills will emerge free co-operative work. "
In this case it is particularly emphasized that the club, has earned a certain amount, he must determine what the order in which to spend the money.
The main thing is that the targets were near and dear to the children, not imposed on them from above.
Many of the teachers of that period, primarily Blonskii, Nadezhda Krupskaya, believed that with the help of well-baby and well-organized co-operation can help establish the school as a school of Soviet labor.
