The concept of improving the quality of education is not only learning more and acquiring information, but also developing thinking, quickly selecting important ones from a large flowof information, determining the direction, correctly assessing the situation, and forming skills and qualifications to solve non-standard problems. A modern teacher, in order to find his place in today's competitive education market, must organize the educational process based on a new approach. The quality of education depends, first of all, on the level of mastering the main link of the educational process, educational material as both its object and subject. Namely, the 4K model plays a very important catalytic role in improving the quality of education today. The concept of 4K is usually used to describe competencies in the cognitive, metacognitive, social and emotional areas. The “4K” model, that is, critical thinking, collaboration, communication and creativity, is a model. This model is aimed at increasing the activity and interest of students, developing their problem-solving, comprehensive thinking skills and preparing them for real- life events. Problem-solving methods in education based on the “4K” model closely help students apply these skills in practice. A story is a small-scale work of art that summarizes a certain event in a person’s life, important aspects of life. “A story often describes an episode in aperson’s life. Its content is more realisticthan a fairy tale.” The story is considered a very suitable genre for primary school students in terms of meaning. Primary school students are mainly interested in stories about the characters, their appearance, portraits, and events. Therefore, the introduction to the story is accompanied by an explanation of its plot to the students. In the explanatory reading lessons dedicated to reading the story in the fourth grade “Reading Literacy” textbook, the main types of work are: revealing the content of the story read based on the 4K model, teaching critical thinking about negative and positive situations,working onvocabulary, retellingthe read text. To reveal the content of the story, it is usually analyzed using questions. Questions serve two purposes: -explaining andanalyzing thecontent ofthestory; - used to identify connections between facts, reasoning, comparing events, events, actions, and generalizing conclusions. When teaching a story based on the 4K model, the main thing is to analyze its content and, on this basis, to develop students' speech, to express their thoughts clearly and clearly, to listen to page2146 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ISSN:2692-5206,ImpactFactor:12,23 AmericanAcademicpublishers,volume05,issue05,2025 Journal: https://www.academicpublishers.org/journals/index.php/ijai andunderstand theinterlocutor, and to use language effectively in conveying information. After reading thestory, students are given timeto think, reflect, and prepare to express their opinions. The first questions asked about the studied work are aimed at finding out whether the story was liked or disliked by the children, and which character's behavior influenced the child. Then, questions are used that help to reveal the plot of the story, the development of the event, to study the characters' character, and finally, to understand the main idea of ​ ​ the work by creative thinking. For example, in the 4th grade "Reading Literacy" "The Wandering Bird" (Zamira Ibrohimova) “Pearl” (Mary Joslin), “Tashbagir” (Jabbor Razzaqov), “Winged Dreams” (Hilola Hamdomova), “One of the Seven Treasures” (Hilola Hamdomova), “Hunarli mingni yengar” (Obiddin Mahmudov) and other interesting stories are given. These stories are diverse interms of themes and differ inthecharacter traits and general conclusions of theirheroes. For example, in the story “Pearl” a feeling of admiration for Josh’s loyal, generous friendship is aroused, while Ruben’s behavior and experiences evoke love for the Motherland, and his fate evokes a senseof appreciation for his homeland. In primary grades, various analyses of theplot, composition, and characters of the story are carried out based on working on the text. This increases thestudent’s creative activity and expands thescope ofcreativethinking.
