Parameters of physical development are known to be informative indicators of health status and adaptation processes, as well as markers of social, hygienic and environmental well-being both in healthy children and those with various pathological conditions. The purpose of this article was to study the characteristics of the physical status of children with intellectual disabilities. Materials and methods. We examined 168 children of primary school age (7–11 years) studying in secondary schools of Krasnoyarsk. The subjects were divided into two groups: the first group included 54 children with intellectual disability (F70, F71 according to ICD-10), the second group included 114 children without intellectual disability. Anthropometric characteristics and level of physical development were studied taking into account regional centile tables. The harmony of physical development was assessed using the Quetelet index. Results. The physical development of children with intellectual disability is characterized by a lag in anthropometric characteristics compared with intellectually healthy children: body length was 133.0 and 137.3 cm (p = 0.048), head circumference 51.0 and 52.5 cm (p = 0.002) respectively. The first group also had a statistically significantly lower percentage of children with harmonious physical development (37 %, p = 0.045) against the background of pronounced disharmony (underweight in 31.5 %, excess body weight in 31.5 % of children) compared to their healthy peers (harmonious development in 55 %, underweight in 16 %, overweight in 29 % of children). Further research into the constitution of children with intellectual disability can form the basis for the development of corrective measures, taking into account the specific typological characteristics of children in this group.

This paper presents a systematic approach to the spiritual and moral education of primary school children, which is proposed to implement through a model that includes target, meaningful, subjective and effective components. All components of the model are described. For its implementation, forms of educational tourism were chosen, taking into account the age characteristics of children. The author described how to use different forms of tourism. A tourist activity application algorithm for younger students spiritual and moral education is developed on the basis of a concentricity principle and assumes participation of students parents. The presented model of spiritual and moral education is based on local history material and includes active and interactive forms and methods of work, which allows to develop knowledge as well as experience of moral behavior. The paper describes the modules of the world exploration consistently from exploring the city, the region and the country on the principle of expanding and deepening spiral. The description of each form of educational tourism on the material of Omsk and Omsk Region is given. The author offers options for involving parents, options for creative assignments and final sessions for children. The model is ready for use and can serve as a basis for further research.

We assessed the main anthropometric indicators of physical development (height, body weight and chest circumference) in primary school children living and studying in the city and their peers living and studying in the countryside. We carried out children's medical records analysis with an assessment of health groups structure. It has been established that the physical development indicators in primary school rural children are statistically significantly higher than those of urban children in both boys and girls. Chronic diseases are more common among urban children aged 7–10 years. The obtained results confirm the need for a special approach to physical development assessing of children and adolescents living in cities and the countryside, as well as the need to develop preventive measures aimed at improving and preserving the children health.

Abstract: This study aims to describe the caries status of primary school children in the city of Malang. The method used is descriptive method with cross-sectional design and was conducted in two elementary schools, SDN Kauman 2 and SDN Percobaan 2 Malang. The sampling method used is random sampling with the variable being measured is characteristic of primary school children by age, gender and DMF-T index. Techniques of data collection used are interviews and observations. The observation aims to conduct dental examinations using diagnostic tools 2 pieces of glass mouth. The data analysis is done by counting the total number of DMF-T each of the research subjects and the mean DMF-T of whole sample. Conclusion of the data results was analyzed using DMF-T index according to the WHO. The result of this study is DMF-T index of primary school children in the city of Malang is 5.75. The conclusion of this study is the prevalence of dental caries in elementary school in Malang city students is high. The need for policy improvements related to ease of access to obtain the services of dental and oral health care facilities for primary school children. Besides, the need for oral health program of comprehensive primary school with good coordination of related partnership. Further research on dental caries and risk factors is necessary.Keywords: caries, DMF-T, elementary school childrenAbstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran status karies anak sekolah dasar di Kota Malang.
