The questions concern the attitudes of future teachers to apply the STE(A)M(E) approach in their practice. The confidence of students to apply classical methods and approaches has been studied. The attitude of students towards innovations in education was also studied. A number of conclusions were obtained, aimed at enriching individual topics in the discipline “Methodology of forming elementary mathematical concepts in kindergarten” with content aimed at the STЕ(A)M(E) approach. The results of the research show a high interest of students in the application of innovative approaches. The need for constant updating of the course content with modern educational technological solutions stands out.
