Abstract: The article reveals the content-activity component of the methodology for the formation of algorithmic skills in children of a preschool society in a digital society. The readiness of the child to study at school, to use the digital educational environment is considered. The author notes that not every preschooler is ready to move to the next level of education. For this, he lacks the formation of the prerequisites for educational activities, including the ability to follow instructions, follow the proposed plan, the formation of reflective and communicative skills, arbitrary behavior. For successful learning in primary school, the child must have the appropriate skills, in particular algorithmic skills. Algorithmic skills include cognitive, communicative, and regulatory components. The methodology for the formation of algorithmic skills consists of three modules that determine the development in children of the ability to execute linear algorithms; compose and execute algorithms of all kinds, using various schemes, signs, symbols, drawings, verbal description; consolidation of algorithmic skills in various activities and educational fields. For each module, tools have been developed for generating these skills: problem games, incomplete action games, quest games, rules games, tasks of an integrated type. Having mastered algorithmic skills, preschool children will be able to more productively and successfully enter the digital society and join the educational activities at school.
