In the lower grades of primary school, reading, literature and creativity are the basic parts of teaching the Croatian language. This diploma thesis describes the system of reading, literature, relatively children's literature and creativity for creative tasks in Croatian language teaching. Pupils from 1st to 4th grade of primary school regularly encounter reading works, and this thesis deals mainly with the description of reading lessons, the structure of the reading lesson and students' creativity. However, in order for a reading lesson to be successful, it is necessary to start from the importance of reading and developing reading habits in pupils of this age group, which I discuss in the first part of this thesis. Furthermore, reading is an integral part of literature, so we will talk about literature and its adaptation to children's age. Creative tasks that encourage student creativity depend on the knowledge and abilities of the teacher. For the purpose of this dissertation, I held a block class of Peter Pan reading by James Matthew Barrie. The experience and knowledge I have gained will be presented at the end of this thesis, in the research part of the paper. I will also present my goals and experiences and present pupil work.
