Abstract: Every transition in a child’s life is associated with several difficulties, which are a kind of life lessons. Such a transition is the transition from fourth to fifth grade. The student must part with his favourite primary teacher, who has taught him to read and write, to count, and is ready to respond at any time. A new stage of life awaits him, new fears, new dreams and hopes. It strives for greater independence and leadership. New teachers, serious lessons, challenges await him. All these factors, combined, arouse fear and uncertainty in the fourth grader, and when you add the „legends“ told by the bigger boys and girls, the picture becomes scary. What can be done to make this transition more painless and calmer? One good solution is the lesson of continuity. This form of education allows students to develop their creative thinking, responsibility for their own behaviour in society, empathy and respect for others, teamwork, building a strong relationship with the home school, confidence in their own abilities and desire to express themselves. These lessons give the opportunity to be prepared by one teacher or to be interdisciplinary, in this option the children meet more teachers and get to know them in a different way.
