possible directions in the strategy of continuous education of primary teachers

Modern concepts of education include the continuous development of primary teachers in all areas of natural, social and mathematical sciences. The obtained results were selected and differentiated facilities for further education of teachers within the model of professional development. Analysis of teachers' knowledge was made on the basis of results obtained using surveys. The study involved 60 primary teachers from Serbia. A descriptive analytical method, as well as a method of modeling was used. Survey was the research technique used. Results show that teachers are not sufficiently connecting and jointly implementing the contents of natural sciences and mathematics, because they lack a sufficient level of knowledge. It is necessary for them to further educate in the field of integrating the content of natural sciences and mathematics, scientific method and its applications (particularly in mini-projects) as well as in the application of quantitative experiments. This would affect the quality of teaching, their professional competence, as well as it would affect their lifelong education.
