The concept of "ecological competence" is revealed as a result of education, which consists in the ability to apply ethical and ecological knowledge and experience in various life situations, guided by moral values ​​and humane motives in interaction with animals based on the awareness of personal responsibility for its consequences and involvement in their fate. Axiological and competence-based scientific approaches to the formation of schoolchildren's value attitude towards animals are characterized. Considerable attention is paid to project activities of schoolchildren in the ecological field, which is carried out in stages. The main stages of project activity (preparatory, establishing, organizational, experimental, summarizing, final) are revealed. Various types of projects for schoolchildren are presented (informational, philosophical, creative, game, practice-oriented).
