Abstract. The article addresses the issue of schoolchildren studying from home by means of e-learning platforms and resources. The authors highlight the importance of family communication values, detailing the specifics of their formation, as well as consider effectiveness of online learning platforms such as Moscow Electronic School (MES) in terms of conducting family-themed lessons for primary school students. Special attention is given to textual and visual content of e-lesson scenarios on the topic of family in terms of their design, perception and educational impact on children. The research is based on a socio-cultural methodological approach and relies on a variety of research methods, including literature review, review of didactic materials, synthesis, generalization. The authors specify criteria for analysis of educational materials as well as how family values and examples of positive family interactions as key value orientations of the modern society are presented in digital educational resources. The article emphasizes the need of maintaining a balance between employing learning tools available within the digital educational environment and preserving the role of the teacher as a transmitter of national, individual and universal values and traditions. The study has practical significance as it provides guidelines for effective selection and updating digital educational content for family-themed lessons in primary schools. These guidelines may aid teachers in accumulating online learning resources with certain substantive and procedural characteristics beneficial for promoting a positive image of the family.
