Abstract: Despite the fact that there is a great number of researches on the phenomenon of integration in modern educational process, there is still a deficit of researches that focus on classical literature as an integrative resource of natural science and humanities that would give solutions of important educational tasks. This is what caused the rationale of the research and made it necessary to develop and describe the integrative model of involving school students to reading classical literature. The main idea of the project is to actualize interdisciplinary knowledge of teenagers in the process of reading Russian classical literature. In her research Mokshina has applied systems, activity and integrative approaches. The research materials included the following: a set of criteria and indicators of effective involvement of school students to reading classical literature developed by the researcher, questionnaires and survey. The researcher offers her own integrative model of involvement of school students to reading classical literature. The results of using the author's integrative model at school demonstrate the efficiency of the model as the means of involvement of school students to reading Russian classical literature. She also defines particular conditions that are necessary to implement the model and creates the basis for implementing the program at a modern school. The analysis of the reading made by the teenagers who participated in the research has allowed to discover a wide range of opportunities of transmitting interdisciplinary knowledge actualized in the process of reading Russian classics. The use of the integrative model of involvement of school students to reading Russian classical literature creates qualitative changes of the educational process: school students are more motivated to read Russian classics, their interdisciplinary competences are extended. These results can be successfully used by Russian and foreign schools.
